This week-end on Saturday afternoon, I'm going to give a try to Algalon 25. If everything is working as it's expected to be, we won't need more than 2-3 attempts to bring him down. I'm actually thinking about wiping at least once or twice for EVERYBODY to understand what they did wrong and how they can fix their mistake(s). According to a developer that I know, Algalon has been utterly fixed and he's working 100% retail like. All we need are brained enough people, and everybody on ventrilo speechless and opening their ears VERY WIDE.
So this is how it's going to be done: I will make a group of 14 dps and 6 healers. The raid will mainly be composed of guildies, the tanking part is already reserved to the people who have the sufficient knowledge and experience about that. I say "mainly" because I will probably bring some friends of mine from my previous guild (PTR Testers), back on the server for this special run. However, Philosophi will have a reserved slot and keep an eye on you, so if you fuck up be sure that you will experience serious consequences. Furthermore, this topic will enable me to get an idea to who will be available to be there, and it will help me selecting people following different things: the date when they signed up, their ability to listen to what they're told and obviously their performances in graids. Talking about that, I advice people going offline and suddenly coming back from nowhere as I saw this evening in graid not to sign up here. Just saying...
Finally, do NOT sign up if you have lags, if a bird has eaten your connexion wires, if your grandmother is dying in the living room and if she's yelling too loud for you to listen to the leaders' orders or w/e the fuck it may happen to you. Be sure I would be sorry for you but this is NOT my problem and the raid group doesn't give a crap to the reasons responsible for your non-presence on vent or for your possible fail. You will be accepted in the raid group provided that you can pull at least 6k dps MINIMUM and you can be on vent and listen very carefully to what you're expected to do. Also, you guys might have to be patient epecially if some people are dying during the fight, and therefore making the whole raid wiping by the lack of heal/dps their death might have caused: we are NOT ANIMALS so we won't blame people insulting with "NOOBS OMG OMG WTF" or also "MIERDA PUTA MADRE DE MIERDA". Mistakes are human and it's totally possible for someone not to understand everything after only 1 explaination. As I said at the beginning of this topic, I want ONLY mature guys ready to wipe at least 1 or 2 times for the "lowest" people of the group who might have not understood what should be done to fix their mistake(s) in order to succeed in killing Algalon. If this is too much for you, Zul'Gurub is still opened and I heard some guys from Pudim De Alcool are going to fish and have a barbecue there next week-end.
Anyway, the raid will schedule on Saturday February 11th at around 5 p.m. GMT + 0. Feel free to sign up.
Stay tuned.
