Wednesday, July 19th, the Stabbies began their epic fight against the machinations of Omega: Savage. The primary raid team consisted of:
Tanks Sukutak and Jellysaurus (Double Warriors!)
Healers Kela and Celaena (Scholar and Astrologian)
DPS Ravella, Justin Moonsbane, N’tohj, and Nikko (Monk, Samurai, Summoner, and Red Mage)
While not too terribly different from the normal mode boss fight, Savage mechanics do make positioning much more important. Slightly too far in or out and the knock-back can knock a player clear off the platform. And levinbolts to the face are no fun if there’s more than one! Ice skating around and away from bombs proved to be an important skill that most all of the team had gotten the hang of by the last run of the night.
Though the boss continued to snatch victory away from the team, our brave adventurers made progress with each attempt, proving they are indeed learning!
Below is the video recording of the best run of the night at around 34%. May the Stabbies be triumphant next raid!
