like, I'm not yeeting into the wall if my big hitters don't crit, this is just weekly reclears for gearing alts. Last week I died, drifted my big hitters outside of raid buffs, had to pop a Super-Ether instead of a damage potion, and still was better than 67% of sages parsing on Pallas, and it's just. How?

and an 88% on Pallas Athena, while "safetygaming" with some extra shield GCDs as I haven't learned how to optimize my group's mitigation platform to that fight's timeline and damage patterns, to not need those defensive casts and instead get better damage output.

Losing casts, and still an 88. How? That should be a 50, I don't get it. I just don't.

instead of leaving people with more of its depression posts, this one's been pushing itself through phase 5 of The Omega Protocol (Ultimate). Saw a new PB today, and this one executed the mechanic at that PB correctly even though it was the first time seeing it in game in real time, and it even made vocal calls for others.

This one wasn't streaming last night but was recording, so it took the phase 5 run from last night and clipped it.

Video is four minutes and ten seconds long, and ends about twelve minutes and fourty two seconds into the fight. There's the second half of the mechanic after we died, another bonkers tankbuster, and an entire sixth phase with a custom boss afterwards.

Only about 5 weeks left before the group disbands and goes their separate ways for the next raid series, so we're on the clock, but can totally get this done
