didn't do much, just logged in in order to activate LoD mostly.
did two EC LDoN's yesterday (for Ward of Calrena)
group: 58 Cleric, two Necros, 54 and 55 iirc, 52 SK, 55 wiz - I)
first adv went ok, so we said, do another one...
*Cleric did well
*Necro 1 did well (until he LD'ed, cause he probably knew what would happen)
*Frog SK - lvl 52:
- first I made a funny remark, that he got his frog to 52 so fast... well, I should've thought twice...
- took him a while, to understand that a cleric can pacy, and that he should listen to the cleric announcing which mob to pull.
- AC was not bad (950), although my 50 pallie has more AC...
- his resist's must've been very low, laborer (caster type mob) were able to drop 40% with one nuke often - he died three times
- he sticked with us though, despite dying, until he left 4 mins before end, with 2 collects remaining. (cleric told him bluntly that his AC was too low and his resists were crap).
*Necro 2 - lvl 54 ish:
- didn't know that darkness=snaring
- afk'ed 4 times during adv. (walking dog, eating lunch)
- tried to FD before he went afk, but "has fallen to the ground", and subsequently died when we had an overpull.
- left group with 8 mins to go and 3 collects to be done
the two remaining (Cleric and I) almost made it. he meleeing, I nuking (was oom; as dry as, well, ye know), but missed it by 10 secs. bummer :-(
learnings? pickup groups are the most challenging thingies in EQ
