We’ve done it the other way around, pulling the storm-add last (having the boss at around 15k morale), and when it’s almost dead captains hit IHW+LS and everyone rushes to kill both the add and then the boss, aiming to get the boss down before he even has time to use his big lightning attack. It does make sense to pull the storm-guy first though, I’m guessing the Big Bad doesn’t have that many damage buffs up earlier in the fight.
Yeah. We make sure all corruptions are removed before we pull anyway and try to get everyone up to full morale.
I think it stems from our early attempts – ie. if you’re going to wipe do it as early as possible into the fight so you can speedily run up and avoid another gauntlet, so we took the concept of ‘if it’ll kill us, kill it first’. I think both ways are equally valid.
OMG, you told our Next Top Model sekrit!!
The Tyra buff! As she looks into our eyes and tells us we are beautiful, strong and the power to succeed lies in ourselves
She’d make a good elf!
