Vision of Destruction

[Thelmallen]

wow I'm away for awhile and look what this thread became!!!!

I've done every "JOB" in this raid....and none are to hard or take up resources. I've solo clericed this on hard in a PUG and didn't use a single pot...used 34 Mass Mods and 20 Heal scrolls. I've been solo healer on warforged and not used a pot and used 50 recontruct scrolls.

This raid is not recources intensive.

Did you have a fire resist buff on? Just wondering. If you need some clickies, I've got a few for you.

Just join any Vod group with plastikman in it and you will for the most part get a smooth run. I always pug Vod just for the fun of it, I dont need anything in it anymore(35 runs)running mostly as the main tank.

I alway laugh at lfms that ask for WF main tank, ill send them a tell asking," would you take a High AC monk/ranger, I only need a bard to heal me and if needed I can heal myself if im not under madstone at the time" and most of the time I get turned down, no biggie though, plenty more out there.

I do agree, hving a WF tank doing elite does make it easier from what I have seen, but if I have the correct buffs and sulu has the been debuffed its no harder for a monk/ranger.

nah I cast buffs for people man.....but I'm glad ya got those N. Posion clickies I sent ya.....can't wait to use that Copper Fest Token you sent me.

The fact that people are debating what other people want or how to run THIER own group is kinda funny....we run exclusivly doin the WF tank method...we don't ever run it on normal, it's either hard or elite. I've done a 5 man guild run with me as a cleric and we did a AC fleshie route....it's was pretty easy...well up till the end...but overall not much harder.....we did that run on hard. I don't care how it's done as long as it's done. In the long run everyone thinks thier way is superior....but ya know what.....it's probably not....cause if it was that's the way eveyone would do it. I know I learn something new from time to time in this game.....anyone who says or thinks they are right are highly mistaken.

more groups prefer to run WF tank because it's 'safer' - there's no real equipment/feats/skill that your WF tank needs other than maybe a transmuting axe (I did run once where the WF tank insisted on using cloudburst, he got swapped out pretty quickly). If you go the AC route then it's a lot more 'dicey' - if you can get someone who can get their AC to >72 then it's fine, but that requires grinding, equipment, the right buffs (and debuffs). Sometimes it's just 'easier' to go with the lowest common denominator and 'brute force' the raid. I prefer to finesse my raids myself.

I'm not sure if having someone standing there and not getting hit is finesse myself. It's just a diffrent way of getting to point B.
