The Clean Up / why Genesis??
December 29, 2006, 03:30:33 PM
Now, i probs dont have much to do in this thread, but i know quite alot about this new genesis guild and their reasons for starting it since i talk quite alot with kregoron (my brother) and this pretty much happened to my own guild aswell.

It's obvious many SoG do not understand why so many RG1 are leaving, this can be somehow explained if i copy paste something from my own writeup when we split up in my old guild, Mortalis. Atleast, this is afaik also how many of the members from RG1 felt when they left.

I'll be leaving Mortalis along with a bunch of other people. Now I know there's quite some time to TBC left, but it wouldn't be "fair" to not make our plans clear asap. We're doing this because we want to try and create a small TBC guild. I'm personally both looking forward to it, but also sad because there's simply not room for everyone who's in Mortalis atm.

We really dont want to leave behind the people we have worked hard with and befriended, almost everyone contributed to Mortalis, but we felt that the way the guild currently works is not a construction we can blindly take into TBC and be a succesful guild there. Blizzard has forced many guilds to review their structure as we downsize from 40 to 25, this is completely unfair on those who have to choose their future in wow and what they want from the game. For us, hardcore raiding, progress and no compromise is what we aim to achieve in our new guild.

We would rather start anew with our ideas and our ways, without having to radically change Mortalis to our way.

The last thing is very important cos I guess thats pretty much exactly what the ppl who left for Genesis was thinking!

I found a very useful addon that allows you to decurse anything in 1 click.
You have a raidUI infront of you and you simply left click the highlighted name
once to decurse without losing your current target.

Similar to Grid and Clique.

Very easy to modify, I prepared some screenshots how I arranged mine.

This is how it looks when someone gets a debuff that you can dispell:



So what you do is simply just left click on the name to dispell it without
the need of different key-combinations.

You can also arrange it in columns, rows, change color scheme, anything you want.
It gives an error to non-healers, currently looking in the code to remove it so it can be used FFA.

I haven't finished my modification yet so there might be settings that aren't corrected yet.

1.general settings
2.spells
3.healing
4.cure
5.skin

You can download the addon here: Healbot Continued
Make sure you read the notes of what it does etc so you can easier configure it.

well tealeaf, both small eyes and giant eyes are important to be dealt with asap

you cannot leave a giant eye just tanked, you need rogues etc to stunlock it while ranged takes care of small eyes asap or you'll see ppl bunched up getting beamed by the giant eye. the beam from giant eye is similar to the one from Eye of Cthun in ph1, also jumps and hurts alot. You cant let it beam at all :p Only difference is that this one has a casting time! which you gotta take advantage of

cant expect everyone to keep the 10~yard distance in ph2, esp not when they jump out of the stomach etc

hence, have rogs stunlock/kick, warriors shield bash or w/e, nearby mages be aware and counterspell, CoT it etc etc. Shamans can earthshock but.. i really dont know if hammer of justice works :P small eye tentacles doesnt have alot of hp so ranged (mages, locks, hunters) deal with it asap

Edit: http://folk.ntnu.no/lindviks/mortalis_cthun.wmv

this is a movie by one of our mages, can clearly see how well he's following our priority orders in phase2, and how well its working! its also a very nice movie that shows how easy this actually is, when your ppl have learned the strat (our first cthun kill)

Quote from: TeaLeaf;165844Interesting post Lunaa, thanks.

most welcome!

QuoteThe positioning and skipping of melee is interesting.  Do the Giant claws only spawn at 3, 6, 9 and 12 o'clock?

no, but you should _never_ have 4 giant claws up at same time, and this way 1 tank will have only around 3 "slices" he'll have to look after and make sure to cover! I am guessing your warriors have a warrior channel or so, if then its very nice (atleast for the other warriors), if ie warrior covering south gets swallowed, make a macro "IM SWALLOWED, SOUTH UNGUARDED", then get out asap

QuoteThe priority in phase 2 is different to what we have researched.  The priority we found among other Guilds was Giant Eye Tentacle, Eye Tentacles, then Giant Claw Tentacles.

Isn't that what i wrote? :) Yes, you have rogues etc focus on stunlocking the giant eye, mages can silence it, warlocks remember to put CoT (curse of tongues) on it, since the green beam from the giant eye has casting time. Kick from rogues etc works aswell, while rogues prevents the eye from beaming ppl, your casters can deal with the small eyes pretty fast - hence we have casters to stay at their original position as much as possible

QuoteWe currently use the twin pallie entrace (Alliance Easy-Mode FTW) but will prob move to single hunter entry in due course when we know the fight better.

Using a single hunter is imo much much better since he can always FD and change to dmg gear after taking the initial beam(s)

QuoteDots info in the stomach is something we had forgotten about, thanks for that!  The synch between stomach and surface we'd already gathered, however I do not remember CTW showing stomach status in the fight but I probably missed it in the excitement of getting to Phase 2 on the first night!

can understand that, but atleast my own /ctw shows stomach status + who is too near. Ranged + healers have to remember to still keep some distance in ph2, atleast when the giant eye is up. Wiping on ppl bunching up in ph2 cos of giant eye beams is something I atleast have tried a few times too often :D

well, if you dont mind seeing how a horde guild deals with this, i can post alittle of our strat

we use this positioning in mortalis: http://www.mortalis-guild.com/gallery/files/4/7/5/Cthun-pos.jpg

dno if your are the same, but an important thing is to keep an MT on the 4 spots mentioned, 12 clock, 3 clock, 6 clock and 9 clock (that is for phase2)

in our ph1 we have 6 in melee, 1 from each group except those at 12 and 6 clock.

other than that, 2 ranged and 1-2 healers each group is optimal for us, ranged deals with the small eye tentacles asap they spawn, if theres more than one melee in a grp he'll have to stand **** / shoot bow until ph2

healers need to use fast heals on their groupmembers, noone should gimp themselves with nr gear, only the hunter who pulls will use it (he'll FD and change to normal gear ofc) - use NR pots though

yadayada, you get to ph2, here our prior order is giant eye tentacles > small eye tentacles > giant claws

ppl should still keep their grp positioning, except rogues and melee who'll run around and finish giant eyes / claws asap, ranged + healers need to stay somewhere around their original positioning in order to deal with the small eye tentacles - healers need to heal MTs tanking giant eyes + giant claws aswell ofc

we make sure the MTs get out of stomach asap if they get swallowed, other players can eat a NR pot, 1 healer in stomach all time is optimal, cthun warner will show stomach status in ph2 aswell. im usually staying until i get 6-8 debuffs, then jump out

we make sure that no small eyes or giant eyes are about to pop when we kill the last tentacle in stomach, best keep it on 5%ish health for some time until its safe, no dots after 10%. a giant claw can be offtanked during the weakened period, but all dps should focus on C'thun then

hope this will give you a few tips
