Mmkay. So, here we go again. The whole instance will be reset and we're gonna take our second crack at the mini bosses again then shoot for hitting X-89 as well. We're gonna go for Genetic Monstrosity first, then swing over to Gravitron, then back to Malformed Mutant then if there's time we can hit X-89.

Rules for our loot as well as standby can be found here

Boss videos for the mini bosses and X-89 can be found here (please make sure you watch the updated video I posted for Malformed Mutant)

Addons you will need as well as how to set them up can be found here

you can find videos on the trash and us downing the minis here or here

Please note the raid times are in EASTERN (sorry the map shows up on the west coast)
 
w00t, I'm off tuesday so barring horrible tragedy I'm ready to down x-89!
 
Unless you guys are short a member I'll be sticking to WoW (Tuesday nights cover bosses that drop phat lewts that Clammy desires). Best of luck to everyone and don't spend the first half an hour wiping on the same trash pull~
 
I will be there for the first pull until around 10 EST. Given that I will need to dip early, I will be happy to give up my spot if there is someone sitting on the bench that can be there the whole time.

if nothing else, I'll be home just before then to replace you
 
dainjre something I found in my travels. Hopefully a clear concise kill and tank order for everyone to read will help us not spend ages on these guys XD

In general for the Phageborn Deer Packs

(Listed in order of killing priority)

Phageborn Plaguebearer - 5 interrupt armor. Cast needs to be interrupted. Always kill this first if it's in the group.

Conquering Phageborn - Your group needs PURGES! Super important. Easiest is having your medics grab it since Spellslingers and Espers have to T8 their ability to make it purge hostiles. He does a cast called "Pack Instincts" that will buff all of the other deer so you need to purge it off of each of the 3 mobs.

Phageborn Deathdealer - Has a circle telegraph under his feet. He'll charge someone (which is more like a slow gallop to a different target) but he'll go back to his highest threat target after he runs to them. Tank him away from the target your killing if all 3 are still alive.

Wartorn Phageborn - Can not be tanked. Kill this last or if your group has good interrupts, keep him in MoO on your primary kill target. If you're new to this trash you can pretty much just ignore it and dodge his telegraphs.


Generally when you're learning these just tank them separated. If you get the Wartorn just have the 2 tanks pick up the other two and ignore the wartorn. If you have Conquering/Plaguebearer/Deathdealer Have the Plaguebearer tanked on it's own (this is the first kill target) and the OT pick up the Conquering/Deathdealer and just put an extra healer on him.
 
Yeah we'd been doing that, but a couple times at the beginning we mistakenly tried killing the wartorn before the plagebearer, which we corrected kinda late. I think we'll have it down now.
 
Kk. I was still screwing up the names so maybe it'll help some others to see it written down haha.

Or just me, which in that case still beneficial!
 
I'm still gonna struggle with knowing which one is which so.. hopefully someone has it downhaha
 
I'm keeping a tally, so far you've called them all Phageborns 2,986 times.

I've taken some quick notes on all the trash just for myself because I'm a huge nerd, if anyone is interested in just having a cheatsheet to reference I can make a post and add to it as we encounter more stuff.
 
I looooove it when people take notes. Memories get hazy but some well written notes can make the difference in learning. I think I may make a "Sept 9 Post Raid Discussion" post or something similar after every raid, that we the entire guild can talk about encounters that occured and to prep us for the next raid, so you can share your notes if you feel the desire to.
 
Oh God yes. Why is that not the song everyone is constantly quoting during raids? You best believe I'm cutting a blooper reel set to Bombs Over Baghdad now.
