Good Week

emblem_valor.gifMy guild had a pretty good week of raiding (having a good week doing anything is always hard when it ends on Monday).

We cleared Naxx 25-man, including our first Sapphiron and Kel’Thuzad kills. We cleared Obsidian Sanctum with one drake up. Finally we went after Malygos for the first time and got him to phase 2 (we won’t mention no one was left alive for it).

Malygos especially was interesting as we’re using a death knight and druid combo strategy for the Power Sparks. The death knights use Death Grip, or “yoink,” the sparks to the raid followed by a druid root. We stack up a few sparks, AoE them down, and nuke Malygos with the resulting stacking buff. Since rooting isn’t an instant cast we worked out the death knights should also use Chains of Ice to slow down the spark after the yoink. So I have yet another spam based macro:

#showtooltip Death Grip
/cast Death Grip
/cast Chains of Ice

I think I’ll use it for PvP, too. All the Horde insist on running away from me after I yoink and beat on them.

    Ouch…

    Firstly sparks come 1 at a time, so no “AoEing a couple sparks down” 8)

    Secondly whoever couldn’t put 2 and 2 together (DG + CoI) to begin with should be embarrassed!! 8)

    And lastly, grats on phase 2, my guild barely downed 25 man malygos then we fell apart/merged.
