WeekNIGHT Raid Group Scheduling

[Tbone]

Great job tonight! We cleared KP Nightmare! Thanks Opey and Hutch for coming in last minute! I know that Hutch got a TON of Rakata from it!

Sign ups are up for this week! I also posted a gear sheet on my first post in this thread. Please let me know what your gear is and when I need to update it!

[Tbone]

I was able to get the files merged from last night:

Karagga's Palace Nightmare

For the overall stats, remember that myself, Opey, and Hutch were all on the consoles during the Fabricator, so going into individual fights will give you a better idea of your DPS ratio, etc.

[Broin]

For some reason it is not letting me log in and sign up for the raid... .Count me in for Tues, Wed. and Thur.

working now so I'm signed up

[Tbone]

Hutch is in for tonight. That gives us a full 8. We got Hutch 5 pieces of Rakata last week, so he should be decently geared.

Hutch, I suggest getting with Broin beforehand to up your damage. Broin has a hybrid build that's based on upping the damage of Telekinetic Throw, I believe. If you check Sunday's raid logs, you'll see the difference. He might be able to show you a few of his tricks.

Broin tricks?  I don't even play a sage and I want to know them!  

Where do I sign?!

[Tbone]

Haha, Mr. Robot is outing him.

Just a side note about the healing numbers seen in the last log: the only reason we healed that much is because there was that much damage being taken. The log only counts actual healing done.

Right now, it seems the biggest difference in nightmare mode (from a healing perspective) is that, apart from new abilities like Heat Wave on Jarg&Sorn, mechanics or abilities that are typically avoidable or easily mitigated either hit hella harder, or are guaranteed to hit.

So yes, when there is 2000+ HPS needed to be done, it can be done. Until then, you'll still see the same ~1200 numbers that you've been seeing.

SO. MUCH. HEALING.

[Opey]

I had a lot of fun running that!

[Mharz]

Bad news for me.  My laptop display is non-operational.  I might not be able to raid unless I get an alternate rig up and running.  I have an old lap top but I'm not sure it can support the game to raid effectively.  Details as I get them.

Sorry folks.

Nooooo000000oooooOOOOOOOOoooo

[Milhouse]

Depending on what you're running (don't want to conflict with the WeekEND raid lockouts) I can stand in for Mharz.

Let me know.

We're doing EC HM, currently at the second boss (the tanks). There's a tank switch mechanic that has to take place, so there's a bit of a learning curve, but Milhouse is our best bet at clearing it without Mharz.

If we decide to switch to story mode we can use Opey, who is signed up as an alternate.

I'd rather do HM if at all possible. We were SOOO close last night (well, 39%, but for that fight that's pretty close!)

Did some testing tonight after the raid.

Combat spec: 1215dps
Watchman spec: 1302dps

Over a full boss fight, it's about 30k damage difference. Not quite the 70k we were lacking, but getting there. I might try Watchman tomorrow to see how it does.
