Raid Class Organization ** MUST READ!! ** /poke

[Ashorty]

From now on class members need to get together and organize while heading to a raid, once we learn the exact target, certain spells can be organized.

ITEMS NEEDED FOR ALL MEMBERS:
insta click items(for indoors and out)
invis potions(12 pp at local vendor INSTA INVIS)
form of gate(if you can cast gate, or need potion)
form of Enduring breath
SHRINK potions(for inside AND outside)


** all classes must communicate who is up for possible epic items drops on the current encounter, the closest will get first, or if 2 or more will be bid on standard loot system or you choose between yourselfs who will loot after encounter ** this way if any ld's we know ahead of time oh so and so is ld and is farther ahead them me on epic...

RAID channel is for primary communication only during pulling/battle times. ie who is main tank, what is inc, how many adds, who is tanking what, all healing and such go in class specific channels. which monk is tag, which rogue is to disarm trap, which cleric is next ch, which tank is being runed, which cleric is getting agro down etc. which cleric is next to jump in ch order if one cleric dies. If all communcation is done right in raid channel very little will have to be reviewed by raid leader, thus will not have to be repeated over and over. pay attention and we will do so much better, if new to this encounter ask questions in your class channel to help you out.

**class channels need to be shorter to spell(seriously) like aenc, or aclr, ashm, etc...**

These will help us even speed up what we have improved on so far as far as raid times go. Some raids organize faster then others, but always room for improvement...

Clerics:
Buffing(who has MGB, if none, who has Group ageo)
CH order, Support cleric healing.(if set up prior i can make groups even easier, if wait for me to make groups is ok also) ( i know who is running 2 comps and who isnt and even then sometimes i've asked them to play cleric primarly depending on situation, or some use second comp(cleric) to spot them when blind).
who has epics, incase need to battle rez.
who will be first in CH order if one dies...
who will be healing support tanks for Telk/Lendi the Keeper type battles
will there be more then 2 ch clerics? or use fast heals for "FEAR CASTING MOBS"

who is taunting what adds
**MAIN TANKS** you know where i want mobs, and you have control of them, remember you cannot RUN forward to pull mob, YOU MUST use range items, so you never leave heal range, once dmg has been done to the mob, YOU cannot pull it back farther(use your support melee posistioning to help you move mobs) YOU can spin mobs, act like its a cup, and spin it with it being center peice you the handle
I want to see main tanks with new hot keys also:
BACK OFF so i can get agro again, or STOP attacking now!
MAX DISTANCE!
or for main tank rotation
DEFENSIVE UP im' up for tank!
