On the matter of Sko.
I understand why alot of people think poorly of him due to his actions. Sko was exluded from the last raid due to the request of several people. I spoke to Sko about it and explained that he would not be able to come on that raid.
No disrespect to these people but I am not going to discount him from anymore raids as he has never wronged me and I believe in giving second chances. Alot of people seem to be having a go at him when in truth the only person that should are those directly effected.
Simply put i don't want to get involved in this situation, I avoided the boat and the band wagon and have no wish to board now. I hope this wont stop people attending as to let something like this get in the way of your own advancement is silly. He has been punished so lets move on.
I ask that this thread not become hijacked by Sko bashing or whatever as I believe there is already a thread for that somewhere.

There where 1 to many posts so my apologies to Talitha, although I invite anyone in the backups to come along as they will get priority if someone fails to show. (And you know that happens every time)
If you are listed but are unable to come plz let me know ingame at the earliest oppertunity, anyone in 'The Rigante' will be able to tell you if im about.
And for those wondering about Sko, after reading his post I have decided I can't trust him enough to give him the benefit of the doubt so I have excluded him, case of shooting oneself in the foot really.

Lexa said:I understand what your saying Tears but dont you have to be ungrouped to duel, not having done this much myself I not 100% on the info regarding duels
Its hassle, seeing who has 70%power and who has 5% power for theurgs is 100x easier than waiting for macro spam. Having all support together != a good idea and the important thing is theurgs, not other casters. Pets makes the raid quick so the more pets the better. Having me grouped with the theurgs is by far the easiest way and the theurg group doesnt need a 2nd cleric, it might need the odd heal and the odd cure poison (scorpius) but a single buffbot was sufficient for these needs last raid. Necro+cleric+theurgs+whatever. I can duel tears when hes in another grp np, for him its not an issue. Only problem is dracos ae but we can go to one side for that. Having a group window to target people lop quickly and efficiently >>>>>>> target macros and pm spam. On draco last raid I gave over 15 bars of power to the theurgs. Doing that via pm's and target macros really would do my head in.Oysterboy said:IMO: Having one more theurg in pet-spam group instead of a necro (current set up), will go a long way in keeping the total number of pets the same as last time, if not all the way.
Having a separate battery group (mini + necro) is a good idea imo. Then all the clerics aso. in the other groups get a chance to benefit from it.
It shouldn't be too difficult to communicate to Big if you need power, by e.g. making a macro like this: /macro Mana /send Bigchief Power pls m8, if u have some to spare![]()
Maybe it will be better to make a cg (chat group) for this, a Battery chat group, to avoid using /send for this...?
What could be a problem is when the necro wants to target the guy who needs mana; Typing "/target [name]" each time seems to me to be a bit of a hassle... Maybe designate a spot close to the battery group, where ppl can place themselves when they need power. Then it will be easier for Big to target them.
We could set up a power font especially for this; a FoP which marks this particular spot, and which also replenishes power while ppl wait for the necro to help them.
Ppl should try to do without the Battery's assistance as long as they can though...
