Hey guys,
You guys have always been pretty awesome in the past with helping my guild and I solve our raiding problems! I'd like to pick your guys' brains about Siegecrafter 10 man heroic.
We're about 170 or so wipes in, after exploring many different strats, group composition and a few wacky ideas I think we're on to something. We're consistently getting to about 3:30 into the fight before it falls apart, siege is around 50-55% at this time. With all the item upgrades that we've gotten we tried 3 healing it for the last 3 pulls and we really didn't see any difference in DPS so I think we might stay to that.
I have logs, a screen shot of where we are setting up initially and video footage. The video footage might not be that good since its my pov and I'm a tank. We're swapping around to make our tank debuffs go up so we can handle the shredders so I spend a lot of time in the middle.
For the screen shot: http://i.imgur.com/Mqn1Ixs.png Our very first blade goes to the exact middle of the room so the tanks have a blade we can sit our shredder on. The yellow marker is where the ranged/healers sit until the first laser lock on, then they go to green, to another lock on, then blue till another lock on, then to purple. By the time an empowered laser happens they come back to yellow and the cycle repeats. The red marker is where we put the early blades.
Here's our log: http://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/VHYLM6GWmdN1h8aC
Here's video footage: http://www.twitch.tv/shandi235/b/542145594 there's about 18 pulls in that, there's a 20 min break in the early part of the video so if you click past half way then you should start to see some stuff.
We are mostly doing anti-mine strat. Originally we tried not having the magnet come out on the 3rd belt but last night we tried it with the magnet coming out on the 3rd belt to see how it goes. It went... okayish. Then we swapped back to killing that magnet so we'd only get one on the 5th belt. We have 2 hunters that handle the belts themselves.
We do just fine in the first half of the fight then it just falls apart. Mostly the comments are we're blocking ourselves into missiles, someone gets clipped then dies and it just falls apart like that.
Any kind of insights are helpful. I think everyone is doing their job but then it just kind of falls apart. I'm sure I forgot to mention something, if you guys need more info just let me know.
Thanks guys
