Caer Sidi advice

Some of the people who go on these raids make me cry so here's a few tips:

Bloody go behind a mob when possible, some mobs can parry/evade, I turn my speakers off when I hear the parry spam. Use positionals anyway, only reason why you should be at the front is if you're tanking or guarding the main tank. If the mob is too big to go behind and maintain a guard radius, just stay at ze front with the main tank, rest of you spam those positionals behind the mob. Only time when you shouldnt go behind is when there is a lack of space, I.E at an archway and if you go behind you might be aggroed, although the main tank should walk backwards into a clear space so you can do those positionals. I hate when people like spam Amethyst all day :p

Listen to the raid leader, follow him/her and try to avoid listening to other people's advice unless it's like reasonable.

Also, Caer Sidi isn't a quick event, it will drag for hours, so try to avoid going if you can't stay long, can endanger the raid when you leave, although it does help at the start to kill/survive depending on group abilities, mixed feelings on this point.

K?

Well ... almost every group has a paladin .. they all are double healing for somw stupid reason . So the main tank has a problem he misses 80% of the time (parry`d infront of mob while rest hits like 80% at the back ) ...

Yep true Atrox, Caer Sidi is the new fad so thought would be a catchy headline :p

New fad cos Apoc gets a lot harder in next patch, so its a race against time to kill him before then cos we prolly wont manage it after without about 170+ ppl.

Even zergs can die without aggro management sometimes, every raid I've been on has had a main tank, except like Unity raids, usually we do small number raids and dont zerg as much.

Well, for example, last night at the Apoc raid, everyone was shouting, ONLY CLERICS ATTACK THE LAST HORSEMAN, eventually it became ONLY FUCKING CLERICS ATTACK THE BLOODY HORSEMAN, then it became ONLY FUCKING CLERICS ATTACK THE BLOODY HORSEMAN, EVERYONE ELSE PISS OFF.

Or something along those lines :p

Suprising how many suddenly become unable to read once ingame ::m00:

Since that specific mob can only be hurt by clerics, everyone else that attacks him will make him heal back to 100%.

Was mentioned 23097123 times before that mob but somehow it still took 1 min to get every non-cleric off him. :help:

It's all I can spam. My only other decent style is riposte. :p
Side Slicer = same dmg, same end, less to-hit than amethyst.
Cross-slash = less damage, less to-hit.

Amethyst is actually one of the best styles for eopic mobs due to it's very high to-hit bonus. Everyone has endchant anyway.
