It was our Heroic raid night, so we continued on from where we left off. We recleared fairly quickly and then settled down to practice Sun King.
Heroic Sun King is a lot more, well finicky might be the best word, than Normal. It seems to want pretty precise timing on things, as we try to transition phases at just the right time. We're doing a strategy where we move Kael down the sides of the room, side-stepping out of the cone and fire blast. Overall it works pretty well, though it took a fair number of tries before we were able to get out of that phase without too many deaths.
In the end though, we killed healed him up and beat the fight. 5/10 Heroic!
Then we moved on to Xy'Mox. I think we figured out phase 1 and phase 2 on heroic, so we just have to get the timing right on phase 3. We only got past phase 2 on our last try of the night. I think if we get a decent amount of time on him next week, we'll get him down.
In some ways this is the weirdest part of the raid tier. We have to decide on when we should drop Normal so that we can get enough time to focus on the last half of Heroic.
Congrats!
ReplyDeleteSame problem here. We're 7/10 Hc now but people were complaining about still missing stuff from normal, but at least we switched to 2 nights of Heroic first and then maybe 3rd night a clear of normal.
Yeah, we only raid 2 nights, so it makes a bigger difference. Maybe we'll stop Normal after we finish this wing.
