Fail squads and awesome Wizards

Astoru - Heavens Tear

I don't see why there's a wizard version of this thread. Most likely if the squad fails, there isn't a lot you can do about it b:surrender

It's to post the epic stories that you have saved the squad with.

Most phenomenal Wizard save I've ever had the pleasure to witness was when it hit the fan at Astralwalker 2-2 and the Wizard threw up Dragon Breath to grab aggro...then proceeded to tank 4 adds (3 magic and the physical one) for the remainder of the fight with nothing but BB and his own pots and charm. T^T

Sorry...I'd let the thread die, but that would go against my job description. =(

*Flees*

i remenber 1 time i was in that boss, like my 2nd or 3rd try,
i was killing it when the mobs the appear and since barb wasnt away from them the mobs agro on barb, i just saw barb ticking hes charm over and over like if the cleric wasnt even healing, i was rly afraid of barb dies when i told "im gonna aoe mobs and boss to faster kills"(since some ppl wasnt even hitting the boss but the mob, i start the db the squad members just said:
"Stop!!!!"; "ur are going to kill urself"; "omg this wiz is noob"....etc, etc
after some time the mob agro on me and i was tanking him pretty easyly wihtout cleric heals which didnt want to do BB, mobs were using magic atks and since im arcana i was not getting dmg that hard so we did it....
the most funny is after the TT ends ppl called me noob becuz i should aoe but focus my dmg on mob....."whatever"...

I can't even count how many times sutra/morning dew has saved a party wipe. I'm not a cleric but I play one on TV.

me 2, i was in tt1-2 when the boss(which i dont remenber the name xD) start hes freaking aoe as normal, for my suprise just me and the BM was out of the aoe, cleric got 2shotted or less and veno died fast too, i was like WTF **** cleric should go away from aoe xD, when i saw barb wasnt getting healed i try to heal him, when i saw his hp under 20% i start sutra+dew, i could stay him alive for 5min however the cleric took alot fo time to come and the result was bm and barb dead, i dunno why but after barb died bm was the 2nd target for boss....


another story was about BH,
we were inside fb that have the elemental bosses, we need to kill drake, all of us, and wehn we were to close to him barb says "omg, sry guys but i gtg"
we all "WTF", "OMFG dont please", well he just left
some1 said "we screwed" and left, however since cleric and the 2 bms were close to me and to boss we didnt leave and tryed to kill the last few mobs,
i was pretty confient and i told "i think i can kill this boss pretty easyly, is a DOT fire type, just pury me and do some heals", cleric was the 1st saying "no u would die dont suicide pls xd", lol i thought clerics were able to tank him easyly however i just go ahead"im going to tank him" and start getting his DOT, after 20sec of some charm tick and cleric sleepping and saying "nooo, come back, just leave; let the bms tank" she decide to start healing me, it was easy and fast,,,,,,end of story

another story is about rb gamma i was in rb gamma wiht a uber squad less the archer who was a complect noobish inside there, all was going naturely mobs agro on me less fire types, etc, etc
1st boss come out, cleric killed him easily, waves come and we did it fast, 2nd boss comes and archer and cleric stay to kill him, when we finish to dig the chects me and the bm were going back to waves spot, when we arrive we were just painfull becuz boss had 50% of life and should be dead, "WTF, BOSS SHOULD BE ALREADY DEAD I SEE 50% LIFE ON HIM", archer dmg was crappiest of all, i just go ahead wiht bm and start atking, cleric shoot"go back i cant heal all" me:"who cares boss must die asap", me and bm were tanking the boss wihtout cleric heals, result boss died in few seconds....and we success the reborn, wiht all hard job in double waves, my luck is the archer wasnt squishy^^

somewhat less interesting, I was a level 59 wiz on a BH39 (Farren).
Squad: 2 clerics, 2 BM's 1 veno & me

One of the BM's was gunnu tank, the clerics (somehow) managed to let them die, and farren ran off and his aoe killed the veno and one of the clerics.
I quickly switched to earth shield and tanked farren, we won but basically the whole squad was dead so only me & that one cleric got the kill.

That one cleric logged off, and I was considering logging off too cuz I already had the kill, but i decided to stay & help. Because the last run went so badly I coordinated the entire BH, and explained to the cleric how to heal properly and general things about their role in the squad.

healed & tanked & saved the cleric who (before i spoke to her) stole aggro by healing when the bm didnt aoe.

At the boss the bm's were tanking & switched aggro by accident, the cleric didnt notice and kept healing the other one, the ne with aggro died. I asked the BM to move farren to let the cleric res him but he just didnt move.

So I told the cleric to just res him, I healed the tank while the cleric res'd the dead BM, but the dead BM refused to revive because he knew farrens aoe would kill him. The cleric took over healing again & I told the dead BM to revive and promised that I'd get his HP to 100% straight away if he res'd. He res'd and i sutra healed an got him to 100%. He went back to attacking and the whole thing went perfectly =D

Same thing happened to a barb in bh 51, wyvern. he refused to res even when he is a good distance away from wyvern.

This happened a LONG time ago but it was probably the most epic thing to ever happen to my wiz...

A long time ago, in a perfect world far far away... :P

Anyways my arcane wiz (which was around lvl.50 something) was doing BH39 with a barb, 2 bms, an archer, and a veno all around the same lvl. We had to go in and kill Farren, easy prey. We blast through the mobs without any problems and reach the lair of the little midget man. His guards were all around him either hugging him or doing their job. We're getting ready to have the veno lure the guards out 1-by-1 so we can take on Farren. As she gets ready to lure the first mob an arrow escapes the archer's bow. Just like in MSG everyone (mobs included) turns and looks at the archer with a gasp and an ! mark over their head (if only lol...) The guards and Farren shout their battlecry: "RAAAAAUGHTHBTH!!!!" and run toward us on their little stubby legs.

The barb and bms leap into the fray to try pull agro with the cleric healing them as the veno and I try to distract the mobs from the cleric. We shouted, taunted, and swore at them and when that didn't work we hurled fireballs and poisonous bugs at them. We were (sort of) successful. The cleric was safe...the archer..not so much. However the archer could be revived later, the barb and bms established agro for a tiny bit until the cleric pulled it again by spaming the AOE heal skill. The mobs turned around and slapped her. She fell to the ground unconcious...or dead. Didn't really have time to check...

The Barb (who was the squad leader) issues a retreat and we turn around and run. I look back one last time and noticed the barb isn't coming. "I'll hold em' off, don't worry about me I'll be fi-" *STAB* ...

Ever notice how when things can't possibly get any worse they do?

With the barb and cleric dead and only 1 of the guards defeated it was highly unlikely that we could hold out til the cleric got back from town. Seconds felt like an eternity as we somehow manage to survive with a bm tanking and my wiz heals. The Veno's pet couldn't hold agro from that bm who seemed like Rambo on steroids with dual hammers. The other bm and the veno are holding off the second guards attention. The veno's pet died and she ran away with her tail between her legs (literaly) to resurrect it. The bm she was working with got the agro and died after a few seconds. The veno runs back with her rock em' sock em' golem roarin for action. At this rate we would never make it.

Taking comand of the situation I comanded that we'd lure the boss back to the entrance so we'd reunite with the cleric sooner. Everyone who was dead rez'd at town and made a beeline back to the cave. Somehow a bm, a veno, and a pet that I could take agro away from just by looking at the mob had to make it to the entrance, take out a guard, AND survive Farren all at the same time. I issued an order to the bm and veno to leave Farren to me and kill the guard as we ran. With a few meteors to the face and icicles to the kidneys he quickly focused on me. (as would anyone else that got hit with that)

As we ran back I regreted our speed run forgeting we left some mobs alive and I seemed to have a habbit of bumping into them when I rounded corners. With some help from the veno's pet and some drake rays the bm provided as often has he could while keeping agro on the guard. After a while we made it to the entrance with 1 boss and no guards in tow.

Normally this is where everyone meets up and kills the boss and the story ends but not this time. The good news? The archer is back. The bad news? The heroic barb and the cleric left/got disconnected.

The enterence/first room is one big room and thats when I was hit by a stroke of genius...or common sense. As a arcane wiz I can't afford to get hit much and I could easily steal agro from anyone in the group that was left. So I ran around the room casting spells after every few steps trying to minimize the amount of damage I take from the little munchkin that wanted to knaw on my ankles. After enough laps around the room to almost make it a nascar event farren got dizzy and fell over dead. We all breathed a huge sigh of relief that the escapade was finially over and I gained the knowledge that (if need be and hopefully never again...) I could tank the physical damage troll boss of the FB39 dungeon.

This is the most epic and attention capturing post i have read. Please do let us know if you a writing a book and we will be your first readers. b:victoryb:cute
