2009/05/-26 Lemmings down Malygos

Neti's picture

Yes we did it. The Lemmings have downed the Big Blue Bad!

Click 'Read more' for the full report.

We had several players in the raid who had never done this fight before, and others who had to play in unfamiliar roles, notably Matzy in his first appearance as Main Tank in a Big Fight. But the many hours of practice of the past few weeks under the guidance of Akaryxn paid off in the end. Right from the start our tactics were outstanding, we just needed to improve on the execution. Early in the night we got the boss to 2%, then after slighty over 2 hours play time we managed to reach phase 3 with more than the required 3 minutes left... But the boss bugged on us and we died instantly O_O But morale was high, we just ran back in and on the next try we downed him!

Special thanks go to Akaryxn who put in a lot of enthusiasm and effort to make the Eye of Eternity runs go through every week, but who couldn't attend when we finally downed him. We'll be back!

And thumbs up for Billi for leading us past the scary lighting storms in mid flight so we could kick Maly's butt Laughing out loud

Had a great time, was pretty nervous with healing, but Spit and Joe gave a good example Smile

Terrific job all round. I

Terrific job all round. I could only lead phase 3 with

a) matzy doing a great first-time job of tanking phase 1 and 2
b) the DKs doing a sterling job with the power sparks
c) awesome DPS by the, err, DPS
d) awesome healing - AoE heals ftw during vortex
e) great coordination by all on phase 3, and well done again the healers, since I've no idea what you do, but we were all topped up to the gills the whole time.

Well, enough gushing, but I'm chuffed to bits, and feel all warm inside! Smile :)

Going to find somewhere to post the how-to on phase 3 leading.

Wow! That has to be the most

Wow! That has to be the most amazing boss kill screenie I've seen!

I'm chuffed to bits you got him down, well done to every single one of you. It was a perfect example of improving over time (especially for those who recall our 30 second wipes from two weeks ago). These are the fights I love, when it seems so impossible at the start, sometimes, it's easy to give up, but we didn't.

Yeeeeesssss! Laughing out loud

I don't know what "chuffed

I don't know what "chuffed to bits" means, but it should be what I am now Wink

Keirin, I want that screenshot on a tshirt... "My guildies killed Malygos and all they got me was this lousy t-shirt" Wink

Well, I could translate, but

Well, I could translate, but from urbandictionary.com:

Chuffed to bits = To be thrilled by something

Edit - Lol, just noticed that both Billi and I used that phrase Laughing out loud

Everyone did a sterling job

matzy's picture

Everyone did a sterling job really. It was inevitable from the first attempt that he would go down.

DPS were getting super quick with phase 1, by the end of it. The healers just seemed to cope with whatever came their way and took it in their stride.

The only person I would single out is the one who was present in mind, but not on the actual head-count ... ary Smile thanks for pushing so hard with getting Lemmings prepared to down Maly.

Anywaze, here are a few screenies of mine to look at, including action shots!



Love that last screenie,

Yeah that happened to multiple people in patch 3.1 Billi. GM's usually don't do anything about achievements, but luckilly CoS HC isn't that hard. Wink

your telling me ... I was in a PUG and we did CoS timed by accident near enough. We were shifting along at some speed when someone said "meh ... may as well speed up a bit"

I say PUG, but 3 out of the group were from some UBER guild from what I recall.
