Last week had an awesome turnout for heroic and legendary Tempest’s Spine with 11 signups who were new to or still learning the raid. You can watch the replay of the livestream on DDO's Twitch channel DDOstream here. This week we hope to see a big turnout for DDO’s newest raid!
Next in our teaching raid series will be Hunt or Be Hunted on Saturday, March 26 at 1pm ET! I anticipate a large turnout, so a second run to accommodate all who wish to attend is planned for 1:30pm 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 20 to enter epic content and I recommend attendees be at least level 29 and geared for end game play, as this is a level 32 legendary end game raid.
If you are new to Hunt or Be Hunted, there is no flagging required. We will be taking constant cold damage during a portion of the raid, so you must have some cold absorption. Fire Shield (red version) is very effective. You can use scrolls or potions of fire shield if you cannot cast it. You can also wear a cold absorption item. You can find a list of cold absorption items on DDOwiki here. You can also use randomly generated loot with descriptors “Frozen”, “Icewarded” or older “Blazing”.
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
