Chat with keksmarch

Neil "TheGrass" TysonToday at 12:47 AM
Hey do you got a few to talk?

MrPockets7Today at 7:12 AM
Hey went to sleep right after raid. What’s up

Neil "TheGrass" TysonToday at 9:51 AM
Sorry give me a few just now waking up if you still around.

MrPockets7Today at 9:54 AM
yea im around

Neil "TheGrass" TysonToday at 10:00 AM
I guess a bit of an awkward situation. Somehow word reached me through a chain of telephone involving like 4 people that "keksmarch is trying to get trials/raiders to start shit with leadership" specifically talking with Arrast I guess.
I had a chat with Arrast last night and that seems like a highly dramatized version of the story lol.

MrPockets7Today at 10:01 AM
he was whispering me throughout the fight

Neil "TheGrass" TysonToday at 10:02 AM
Yeah I know that now.
I will say I know a little bit about the guild you came from and the leadership and from what I gather our styles are drastically different. We handle constructive criticism well we don't handle unnecessarily personal or harsh criticism well. If theres a glaring problem with the strats, the raid leading, anything other than so and so is a retard or stuff a long those lines we are all ears.
All officers and hopefully raiders value getting better over egos.

MrPockets7Today at 10:10 AM
I apologize if i agitated anyone last night. I was frustrated with mistakes I was seeing and no adjustments being made. From my perspective we were just bashing our heads into vectis for 3 hours. As far as the Arrast situation, he whispered me asking if i thought the kill was going to happen. I told him no and told him some reasons why. I asked him to think about bringing some of these issues to attention bc i felt i was beginning to annoy people. I wouldnt characterize that as "undermining leadership."

Neil "TheGrass" TysonToday at 10:12 AM
Yeah I didn't get that impression at all. I guess i just wish the feedback was more a long the lines of hey guys do this or hey guys notice this and less like the logs are wrong.
But don't hesitate to point stuff out man. If you don't want to do it in raid chat whisper me and ill do what I can with it.

MrPockets7Today at 10:15 AM
I dont think your guild is a good fit me. Thank you for the oppurtinty to trial. I wish you the best of luck in the new raid

Neil "TheGrass" TysonToday at 10:19 AM
Ight dude
Do you mind mentioning some specifics why? It's no hard feelings here or anything we want to improve.
MrPockets7Today at 10:30 AM

of course no hard feeling obviously. A lot of the wipes it seems like the tanks were dying. They were getting high stacks and that can never happen. In the two melee groups there should be a tank in each and the vector should only be spread to the 4 others. tank should never get it. Another issue which i brought up many times, during liquify people are chasing the add spreading debuff to other groups. That should never happen people need to stay in the their quadrants especially if they have the debuff. Thats how we were getting double vectors and if that happens its just a wipe. another thing was the bursting lesions. I was looking at details damage taking by spell after pulls. every pull people were getting hit. it gives you 3 stacks if you get hit and the healers will fall behind when people get to high. I dont know what your healer rotations are but they need to be really presciptive in later parts of the fight. basically a healer cd on every contagion.
I think the most important thing you could do is make the busrting lesions debuff weakaura mandatory. that will take a lot of strain off of the healers. as well as be good about dodging waves
another thing my guild did is we had a set order in groups for spreading the debuff. it gives you a lot of control over stacks. you dont have to do this but the debuff in my group was spreading unevenly. you can just have people step aside if they get too high

Neil "TheGrass" TysonToday at 10:36 AM
We have healer cds for ever contagion. Apparently the tank that just vanished last night passed out due to low blood surgar. Ended up waking up on the floor at 1am and went to urgent care. We've never had tank problems like that before. From what I saw the chasing add issue got pretty much corrected by the end of the pulls but I still gotta look over logs to see that for sure. For bursting lesions I agree but also consider you cant filter details like warcraft logs and we stack up to wipe.
My plan was to explain the stacking thing better and then assign hard limits for moving out. So if you got 2 stacks before first intermission move out. 5 stacks before second. Something like that.
People dont need to be static like a pillar on the marks they can move to wherever they want and still not fuck the mechanic as long as the people who have the debuff and people who have low stacks are on marks before the transfer happens.
I like that set order idea though

MrPockets7Today at 10:41 AM
right so you can get the vectis helper weakaura it tracks debuff for your group and you can just go down the order of the weakaura

Neil "TheGrass" TysonToday at 10:43 AM
Cool man. Thanks for the suggestions. You're welcome to come along tonight if you want so your lockout totally isn't fucked over, but if you'd rather not waste the time I understand.

MrPockets7Today at 10:45 AM
dont worry about the lockout my dude. if youre short a guy i can come help out its no problem

Neil "TheGrass" TysonToday at 10:46 AM
We've gotten this dude to 6% idk why yesterday was such a shit fest
I guess we got some new duders in but I dont think its them

MrPockets7Today at 10:47 AM
hopefully tank is feeling better tonight. poor guy

Neil "TheGrass" TysonToday at 10:47 AM
Yeah dude it explains some of last night
The tank problems at least

MrPockets7Today at 10:47 AM
tanks were a big part of it

Neil "TheGrass" TysonToday at 10:47 AM
But that was not the main one just the most glaring one.

MrPockets7Today at 10:48 AM
i think you guys can down it you have the dps just need to clean up some mechanics

Neil "TheGrass" TysonToday at 10:48 AM
Yeah
