High Lords will host Riding the Storm Out teaching raid on Saturday, March 5 at 1p ET

[Vooduspyce]

Our last teaching raid event, Legendary Master Artificer and Lord of Blades, saw an awesome turnout with 8 attendees who were new to or still learning the raids!

Next in our teaching raid series will be Riding the Storm Out on Saturday, March 5 at 1pm ET!

All events in this series are for players new(er) to raiding or players who are looking to learn raids better. First timers welcome! Please have sound and be willing and able to follow instructions.

The goal is to welcome newer players into the raiding scene, to teach people how raids work, to get players more comfortable with raids and to enhance the Sarlona community. There is no level cap for any of our teaching raids but you must be at least level 27 to enter Riding the Storm Out, however I recommend attendees be at least level 29 and geared for end game play.

If you are new to RSO, there is no flagging required! You will need to have access to the Dragonblood Prophecy adventure pack.

Important! -- To be adequately prepared for the raid you should bring electrical absorption gear. We will continuously be struck by lightning throughout most of the raid, so continuous electrical damage mitigation is essential for survival. The lightning cannot be evaded. Bring at least one electrical absorption item - with the massive amounts of electrical damage that we will encounter, an absorption item is clutch. You can craft absorption items using Cannith Crafting or you can find randomly generated items with the descriptors "Electricity Absorption" or "Insulated". You can also use named items such as Ring of the Djinn, Prismatic Cloak or Legendary Ring of Flickering Steel . A list of named electric absorption items can be found on DDOwiki here. You can also use a 4-piece sentient weapon Electrocution filigree set for the 50% electrical absorption effect. You can check the amount of electrical absorption your character has in the + tab under the elemental Elemental Defenses heading.

Space is limited so reserve your spot ahead of time! If you would like to reserve a space in this Saturday's event, please send in-game mail or tell to me on Voodu.

This event will be live streamed on DDO’s Twitch channel DDOstream so even if you're not on Sarlona, you can watch, learn and ask questions live. This year we are simulcasting our teaching raids on multiple Twitch channels so that viewers can see moments when the part splits or from tank point of view, etc. This week's event will be simulcasted by my guildie Gijo on his Twitch channel highlordpudding. You can watch both streams at the same time at multitwitch.tv/ddostream/highlordpudding.

Thank you to the community for all the support and special thanks to DDOCast and DDO Chronicle for mentioning our events. We hope to see you in raids soon!

Much love,
Voodu and The High Lords of Malkier

Great run!! We had 5 signups who were new to or still learning RSO. This can be a bumpy raid for first timers so we just did it on hard. You can watch the replay of the live stream on DDO's Twitch channel DDOstream here.

This week will be the sequel to RSO, Killing Time on Saturday, March 12 at 1pm ET. I will post details in the Sarlona forum shortly!
