I didn't see any reflex stims.  I'm just going to start buying them.


AHHH!! So sorry! I always forget to make the Reflex Stims because that's the only Exotech recipe I still don't have. I'm getting in-game now to start making some!


...And we will strike down upon those of Darkness, with great vengeance and Furious Anger, those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers.

I will be doing some volunteer work this next weekend, so I won't be able to attend the raids.  Sorry, guys.

I noticed the time changed to 4PM FA time, from 2PM FA time. Is the 2 hour difference the new time or is that an error on the calendar?

Same time as everytime longboard - I think there is something screwy going on as I access the calender from a different timezone consistently.

To be clear - the raid time will the same time as it has been for the past X weeks.

In doing the new raid, it seems the WeekEnd group is hitting a wall at the first boss encounter.  After no succes with varying YouTube videos, we could use some hands on advice.  Would it be possible for someone who's in the WeekNight group to step in and share the strats with us?  

Judging by what the group is wearing, I don't think we're missing a gear check.

We actually did Toth and Zorn backwards the first time we killed them. We had melee on Zorn (hurls rocks and does a frontal cone) and ranged on Toth (close-range AoE). By switching them, we were able to avoid Zorn's nasty cone from accidently hitting the melee on the switch, and only had predictable (and easier managed) damage hitting the melee.

The fight really comes down to the tanks. We take Toth to the far right and the melee stay on him. Zorn goes to the far left and the ranged are on him. Ranged position themselves outside of Zorn's AoE debuffs.

When Toth jumps to Zorn, the tanks will need to switch. Toth immediately walks back to his original tank. Once both tanks are ready, they arc towards each other and then either force leap or sprint to the OTHER boss and pull aggro. While this is done, everyone else pretty much stays where they are and waits for the tanks to reaquire aggro.

Tanks must pull aggro quick enough that the bosses do not get too close to each other. If they do, they receive a buff that makes them do extra damage.

In HM this becomes more complex as Zorn has a debuff that insta-kills anyone who attacks him. The tank will need to get swept and ranged HAVE to stay outside of the radius. If they get hit with the "fearful" debuff, they are forced to switch to Toth for 60 seconds. I believe if tank gets "fearful", that's when the tanks switch (it happens when he leaps).

The Weekend group did that first.  You were there.
