Hey Guys,
We are a small/ casual raiding guild (Still on normal mode)..... After weeks of wiping on Blackhorn we got him down last week and managed to kill Spine withing a couple of hours of trying, last night after we downed Spine early in our raid went to try Madness for a few hours.
It felt strong for our 6 or 7 attempts BUT we couldnt get past the 3rd platform, the order we was trying was Green>Blue>Yellow>Red as after watching Fatboss guide (thats what they used but said experiment) and trying to understand the platforms and each aspects ability it felt a good starting point.
As said we struggled on the 3rd paltform we couldn't kill the bolt on the yellow platform in the air even with the time zone thingy but I am guessing thats because we had just lost the 20% damage buff from blue platform. I am assuming half our raid died due to bolt landing and 'people were to close'??
We switched the raid about a bit, but we felt most happy running 2 healers/ 1 tank & 7 Dps (As below)
Our Raid set up last night was:
Prot Pally
Shaman Healer
Druid Healer
Fire Mage
x2 Arcane Mages
Survival Hunter
Shadow Priest
Combat Rogue
Ret Pally (Was tank to start with)
Usually we would have an Affliction Warlock instead of one of the mages.
Here is a log: http://www.worldoflogs.com/reports/7gnemj4en9aztv6m/
I understand that we will learn the fight more and try diff ways to see what suits us over time being as we only had a few attempts BUT If any one could offer some advice on which platforms 'could' suit us from your own experience or even have a little lookskie at the logs and offer any advice there it would be muchly appreciated.
