Had a silly run on Trials roulette this evening!
- Queue on Warrior, hope for one of the 6.x Trials because I like them and they’re worth a few extra tomestones
- It’s 6.2! Yay, this one’s a blast!
- Oh. There’s a Black Mage viewing the cutscene. In a fight that asks you to dodge rapidly. Look out for some death.
- First few mechanics go okay
- Then suddenly a big chunk of the party has vuln stacks and both healers are down
- Oh crap, none of the DPS can raise. Well at least all the DPS are alive. For now…
- The Black Mage and another DPS go down late in the first phase, but a Ninja, a Bard, and the off-tank (also Warrior) make it through the phase change
- Those two remaining DPS hang in there for a while, but eventually the Bard goes down. That’s partly on us tanks, we both put Nascent Flash on the Ninja by mistake. :-(
- Now we’re both pretty much using Nascent Flash on the Ninja on cooldown. They know their business and they don’t eat any avoidable damage.
- At this point a few people are cheering us on from chat
- It takes a while, but eventually the three of us finish the fight!
- We get some more positive comments in the chat and go our separate ways
I got a couple commendations from that, and I hope the other Warrior and the especially the Ninja got multiple commendations too!
