AQ40 ORDERS: Our healing strategy

[Zianna]

First and foremost: All healing classes must join the healer channel, as soon as they join the raid. I strongly suggest putting this channel in a seperate window, since we will use it for important orders that might otherwise disappear in the chaos of the general window, during fights. If you need help setting that up, poke me outside MC.


General notes:

• The Main Tank (MT) and OffTank (OT) should generally speaking always be shielded at every pull, to buy them time to build aggro.
  
• If you are assigned to someone and run oom or die, say so immediately in the healer channel or on TS and say who you were assigned to.
  
• Please remember, rather a death than a wipe.

Now, the strategies may vary at times, since it all largely depends who we have with us, but the following is the MO we will aim for, if possible.


ERADICATOR
All priests on mana drain
2 on MT
2 on smap
rest either smap or dps

SENTINEL GROUPS
2 on each tank (total of 4 tanks)
rest on smap

SKERAM
3 groups are made for the spawn/blink spots + boss spot. These have a shaman in each. Each group's shaman + 2 more assigned to heal their assigned group, the 2 tanks as first prio.

The Remaining healers are positioned by the edge of the top level, some at the top of the stairs each side and some midway, at the very edge. The ones by the stairs can't go further down than halfway, since that will be close enough to trigger the AOE attack. These are spamming everything in range.

TRASH
Spam tanks -> raid

SARTURA
2 on each tank (up to 7)
If possible, 1 more on boss MT
If anyone is left, spam their corner

FANKRISS
4 healers on 2 MTs
5 healers on 1 shouter tank
2 on locks, then smap
3 on mages, then smap
1 on healers, then smap

This is as far as we've seen confirmed to work.
