Lord Commander Ragarati Raid

Laksha

Dalayan Beginner
this Friday, Sep 7, at 7pm EST will form a Narmraid to take down this adept. What we will need is people lvl 47-52. Looking for clerics, enchanter, at least one mage and one shammy, and lots of DPS. Already talked to soem people and have good MT and RTs lined up. Will like to have a good amount of enchanters and healers, this mob hits VERY hard for its lvl and runes and patch healing will be the key to victory. For info and questions /autojoin narmraid ingame, I will get home at about 5:30pm EST and will start calling for healers. If you want to participate this is what you should do:

1) meet the required lvl
2) be aware of the day and time this is happening, and sure that we will kill it more than once so keep in touch.
3) invis up and get familiar to traveling through the maze in MiellecB


Note: BTW this is the second to last adept in the game, will appreciate your support, I dont think this will be an easy fight, and thast why I'm trying to get ready early on.
 
Might wanna get a handful of 65s to help clear to the guy. Last time there were 3 mobs that couldnt be split and 2 of them were casters that were contantly ae'ing.
 
I can come - 45 mage. I know I don't meet the "47-52" requirement, but it's not as if i don't have the same spells as a 47 :)

I can summon mod rods if nothing else :)
 
Astos the difference between a 45 mage and a 47 mage on this mob is that your spells will not land, while a 47 mage will have a better chance of landing those same spells you both have, the lvl require i put on this is for a reason, not because i feel like being mean to people, Howerver i will make exceptions on lvls for healers, I will take lower lvl healers depending on how many healers i get from the required lvl table.

52 necromancer, I'll pitch in. Do we know what his SV weaknesses are?

Nothing much is known about the mob at all. A few people have done single man runs on him to just see what he does but I don't think anything substantial can be said about him except for maybe how much he hits for. For all we know he could summon 50 frogs at 50% and 100 tadpoles at 25% or something crazy like that.
He could very well be strait melee, but looking at other adepts it can be assumed he may have some sort of proc and maybe some summoning.
 
I HAVE played this game before despite what your post suggests, thus also why I said I would hand out mod rods.

It doesn't matter anyways, my frat legion party is that night so I won't be able to go regardless.
 
i think the level req should give a general area. because even though is spells would be resisted more. he may land some. and thats what counts. either way he doesnt plan to show up. but to give others who are real close to the level req. i do think it should be more of a guide rather then a level req.

I find its better to just list a required level and stick to it rather then making judgement calls on everyone... then you get going 'ah ur just 1 level lower'... 'ah you are just 2 levels lower'... 'ah you are just 3 levels lower'... then you may say, well there is a point where you should stop... exactly.. a lvl range.

It's like speed limits... people go 5mph over the limit then say they should rais it by 5mph... but then if it gets raised they will be going 5mph over that new limit and so on.

Otherwise you get a lvl 25 tagging a long... dying often... doing nothing really substantial.... then getting to roll on drops with the same equality that lvl 52 did. It's not really fair to anyone in a situation like that.

thats why i said its more like a guide. i believe that even a 45 would be semi helpful. and i dont think the raid will hit max number able to participate. so i figure if he is within a few and could be helpful without being a hassle then why not? but maybe thats just me and i am willing to accept some lower levels so they can experience things. im thinking about the fun in things. letting him tag along. and i get ur point. but i still believe its just 2 levels. that isnt a lot. and if i was running a raid like this i would have just let him come along. but im not.

actually there are a suprisingly large number of people who are in the range of 42-52. I led an expeditionary force some weeks ago to see if we could see what he does (although we failed badly) we had a rag-tag band of about 25 people of the willing
 
this is getting a bit too far out, and you guys dont understand, possibly you guys have not done adepts as much as I have, and this is not EQ live. Let me give you examples of my past experiences in other adepts, for example Sludgebreath, I started taking people lvs 32-42 and wiped, then i moved 35-42 and wiped once i staqrted doing it 37-42 did it flawless no deaths, I'm aware that he got nerfed down on damage and AoE damage, but Wiz stated that he didnt do anything to his svs and before people lvls 32-35 where not able to land a single spell even after tashed. The people that are under 6 lvls or more from the adept seriously become hindering to the raid and dont offer. My goal is to take Adepts down, fast and efficient, and I hate to waste people's time, thats why I spend alot of time studing the adepts and trying to make it happen. And yes some times I will take people way under the lvl of the adept but thats after I'm already familiar with the adept and I know whats going to happen, but as it is this is the VERY first time so I want to have a strong force for this. Please understand, and try to lvl up some because we will be doing this adept more and more, at least we will kill this guy 3 times for sure before we move to the dragon.
 
I'm hesitant to join raids on adepts any more on this server for some of the reasons you've stated. A large number of people on here clearly never raided on live. And while this is different, some of the principles are the same. I've been on several adept raids that wiped within the first minute because as soon as the MT hits, people just run in and start casting and attacking and the adept aggros on everyone.

I'm glad that you have the scrict level requirements, I've also been on a couple raids with people who are really too low level to help at all.

If I were at 47, I would be all over this raid because you certainly seem to know what you're doing. Good luck taking him down.

People need to learn how to raid eventually. Its best that they learn early on then later when it could cost them a membership in a guild. Being such a small server with so few guilds that would suck :(

they can learn when they are either in the level range, or when they go for a different mob.
