 Not shown: Firebreather Yes, it's a big image and probably wider than your screen. Too bad.  Some notes on the run: - Fire was having some pretty bad lag and ended up in... interesting places a couple of times.
- Most of my "healing" was me drain life-ing things, as usual.
- Prune is an awesome tank.
- Prune's "damaged" and "healed" columns are amazingly close. Great job healing him, did it enough, but didn't overkill at all.

"Prune is an awesome tank."
Really? I thought I was doing rather poorly. It's been a long time since I've played the tanking role, and the first time as MT in a larger than 5-man party. Those first few fights were really rough, though I suppose it got better as we went on.
I am interested in any suggestions for improvements regarding my tanking, as I imagine I'll be doing more of it now that we're starting up guild instance runs.

Oh man, I just got my screens shots ready, and here you have already posted them. And that table is WAY better than whatever I had to put up. Well I am just glad you guys decided you could take me along! We will have to do it again some time. Heres what we did a little later. Its nice to see our guild list start looking like this.   PS: I think you can tell Vith and I life-tap a lot since healed >>> damaged |

Prune,
I wasn't there for to evaluate your tanking, but you might want to read "Zrog's Tanking Tips" (it's in the General Forum somewhere).
I also often think that I could be tanking better, even when some people praise me. I think it might be because tanking is one of the harder roles to play effectively... and is never that neat and tidy.

/agreed Zrog. Alot of times I think I'm doing horrible and I start getting tells that I'm an awesome tank. I think part of it is that people know that they arn't doing their best on aggro control, and that they feel they can slip because your a good tank  I look forward to being able to tank, or offtank as the case maybe. I think I'm going to stay my usual Fury self, but we'll see. I might don the Sword and Board permanetly, if we need it. Tanking MC would be a pleasure though, when/if we get there. |

I'm sorry - I don't know who Malexandria is... but...
Tanking in MC is a lot about gear... FR gear and +Def gear. I DO need MC tanks for my upcoming runs, but we would be much more successful if we had properly geared tanks.
Unfortunately... most of the craftable FR gear requires drops from MC before you can even MAKE the gear, so... kinda catch-22. We'll do some "trash mob" runs in MC soon hopefully, and get our Cores that way.

Alot of casers dont realize they can get 200+ FR without making any of the epics that are crafted from cores (flamecore). Untill tanks are completely geared up, casters shouldnt get anything (my opinion is all). Cus we can get pretty geared up withotu using valuable cores.
Luci has been takin down with 20 ppl before....so i think we could do trash runs with only 15 or so....if we had good grp for it. So with that small of a grp we could do farming runs all the time rly...would get HGA a great start.

Mal,
I think 20 is minimum for trash mobs, too. The 20-man Luci runs you're thinking of are people geared in all epics, I think...
... however, Hazel's guild "Purgatory" (DeDread's in that guild) now has about 12+ L60s... and most of them are hunters and healers (they've picked up a few ex-Tainted). So... with Legacy's warrior-heavy mix, I think the two guilds could do some pretty nice trash run mobs together, and form a good core to try to take on Luci.
I would REALLY like to do some trash mob runs, at the very least, to get Zrog and our other melee geared for MC, because it was made VERY plain to me (while in ZG against the bat lady) that your tank's durability pretty much determines your success. When tank(s) go down, everyone else quickly follows.
I also have to find out why my CTRA won't display cross-the-screen messages when I type /rs to chat. Stupid thing...

Prune is 57
Ray is 55
We also have Malex on the rise at [insert low 40s here]. But he is moving fast, and seems to be pretty good.
Also we got a new member Cherrycoke at higher 40's, but I am not sure how long he will be around <_<

Yah zrog i think us and purgatory will be able to start doing trash mob runs very very soon. We can start getting the warrs geared up even before HGA rly even forms.....though we need to decide whos going to be our main tanks..once we can trust will be there the whole time and wont crap out on us....would be to much a waste to not think hard about it. Whats cool is that we will start getting our epci set bracers and waist peices even when not fighting bosses...WOOHOO
this is all up to u zrog...your the orginizer
