But ehat about the bugs , ive been on 8 sidi raids b4, never made it past the 2 guys after bane, twice cos of wipe, 6 times cos mobs bugged in walls :/

I did hear about updated drops tho , so maybe it is worth a look , some people like it just for the alchemy procs too...

Well more interest inc and ill set a date , tho i like organising the turnout, leading it is another question enitrely ... mls i can do, sidi , id rather not cos ill get u all killed.

Saying spam therg pets is too complicated for me brain :)

Been on a few sidi raids, could help lead one probably if it was on a day I could make.

The strategy that used to be used was sending one ungrouped person (usually a mincer) in to pull. If several came, the mincer would die, and be rezzed when the monsters had left. If only one came, the BG would kill. That worked very nicely for not being mobbed by the non-Boss mobs. In almost all the dungeon, you clear any non-Boss mob you can before turning on the Boss ones. Naturally there are special tactics for some of the bosses.

Reasonably balanced tank groups, plus plenty of theurgists, works best in there I reckon.

Tbh most of SIDI can be made with 10ppl if they have 1 serv. necro and 2 clerics


But for apoc and his knights you need lots of theurgs and some smart thinking

we used to do sidi with 6-8ppl and got to horseman and killed a cple of em

matter cabby
cleric
cleric
cleric
cleric
necro
friar
random tank

basically matter cabby focus pulls..

clerics small heal

necro duels the random tank or friar and gets power to transfer to cabby.

when need for melee mobs friar n merc r there.

also nice to have a gate wiz also alt logged inside... so u can gtae pull warlord dominnika to save doing other bosses :)

dont know if that setup stil works but worked back when we used to do it.

I imagine these days you could replace the duellers with a fop, add some theurgs to make things quicker, and the pet class would be ML9.

no, they raise the effective level of the pet by 10, or 20 i forget, witch means they have a better chance to hit higher level mobs, witch lowers its(the high level mob) defences for pet spam/tanks/casters...

also, cabby shield dmg is greater than a necro's, and doesn't require recasting all the time...

however this is balanced out with with ML9, con/hits x-fer, and DI abilitys...

Nah i did 2,5 levels of sidi with 1 servant necro and 2 clerics, we didnt go on cause we had to kill sacristan ( runing mob )

In fact with DI2 at least and BoF2 you can pull like 4 SIDI mobs at same time
