Well, we revisited Molten Core last night, with the aim of trying to get Garr down.
First surprise was the fact that the Molten Giants had respawned. We were under the impression that they wouldn't, but it seems they are on an 8 hour timer. Well, we know for next time! After clearing our way down to Garr (which didn't take long at all!) we found ourselves with an almost full group, so we started prepping. Preparation for Garr is, quite frankly, a pain. The objective is to banish or offtank his 8 adds and have one tank on Garr himself. This requires a total of 9 tanks/warlocks. As we only had two warlocks and 6 tanks in the group, it fell to Cauthon to Feral one of the adds. Assigning mobs to the tanks is a fun experience. Although CTRaid helps in some respects, it is still a pain to assign them because they keep moving so quickly! Eventually (we thought) we managed to get them all right, and Mace engaged. Oh what fun! We died very quickly. It appears that one of the adds wasn't actually tanked, and he went straight for our healers. SPLAT! We wiped pretty quickly, but it was a great learning experience! At this time, people were dropping from the group so it was decided to bust and zerg UBRS for fun again! All in all, an enjoyable learning experience. We're certainly getting the hang of the trashmobs in there! P. |
