    Stop the AOE? You've got a Barb and 2 venos, that's 3 guaranteed AE interrupts every 9 seconds before even taking genies into account.

    The Adalwolf boss...what is its name?

    Edit: it's very difficult to time a pet's Shriek to actually interrupt something.

    we had both clerics party heal constanly with the barb tanking, then as we had 3 dd's, the dd's atacked the spawning mobs to keep them off the clerics and keep the add's numbers down

    No it's not. Learn the timer on the AE, set a program to run with a 1.5 sec offset or so that plays a chime every x seconds to tell you when to hit shriek. That's how to get something with a short channel time.

    If you don't want to do that though... use a genie?

    If that doesn't work, try to measure out the ae, there might be a range game you can play with it.

    Did you use the pets to attack the spawning mobs aswell, or were they on the boss?
    I had a hard time using the partyheal aswell, since the spawning mobs aoes kept interupting the channeling..
    And if all 3 dds were on the ads, how long did it take you to kill the boss?
    Did you have alot of charm-ticks during this fight, or were the clerics able to squadheal fast enough, or did you manage to kill off the ads before a new one spawned?

    We had a party with: barb, bm, bm, archer, cleric, cleric, and we got destroyed b:surrender

    Our lvls were a bit lower aswell though. 82-87.

    pets were on boss most of the time occasionally doing adds, barb and 1 cleric were charmed

    the tank was fine with the party heals tho, the main thing is killing the spawners as fast as u can so clerics can heal freely and less aoe dmg for everyone, keep the add's under controll and u got it.

    the boss didnt take too long 10mins ish i estimate =p

    we mamaged to keep the adds under controll so that one was dead before another spawned, 1 spawned and the 3 dds had it down by time the new one spawned

    Nothing too hard, if everyone is charmed and have some gaming sense then it's quite easy.

    The most annoying/frustrating one was the bishop popups. At first me and 2 other wizards were picking them off, but towards half way I gave up and told the 2 wizards to continue killing popups while me and barb took on the boss.

    The one with the powerful AoE chanting something like POWERFUL... SMASH... or something was doable with a charmed barb and an archer (me) only. As the whole party wiped (save us 2), the clerics made their way back while us 2 handled the boss. Once he starts chanting everyone should run away. Use HP if needed to get away quicker if you didnt catch it in time.

    Also, another surprise we got was a hand spawning boss. The boss spawns dummies that explode on death and spawns hands that deal 5000 armor ignoring damage (so it seems). Kill the hands ASAP. They are lvl 5 and die easily.

    We got to the giant flaming nix which I assume is the second lass boss in the instance and clerics and barbs had to bail out. Will be able to discuss more on weekend when we plan to rerun and complete it.

    Group comp:

    2x wiz: 86 and 89
    1x arch: 88
    2x cleric: 86 and 82
    1x barb: 86

    We didn't get a second cleric until the the start of the bishop boss fight.

    edit: anyone know where to exchange the old curvades and the new items (faithfulness/sincerity/etc) from?

    Master of kung fu ( he has a new name)

    exchange the curvades and stuff from old FC

    and talk again in quest line to have money
    I look at all the trollers, and Pvpers.. and know they wouldnt have lasted 30sec on Camelot.

    Rules= Know your enemy (players and NPCs) gives you more chances to survive.

    Thank you.

    edit:
    seems the NPC only exchanges old FC material. Anyone know where the Frostcovered Elder is so I can exchange the sincerity/faithfullness things at?

    I thought this was common knowledge.... every single person in this game should have a genie with lightning chaser, could be a spare genie it doesn't matter. If you have 6 people with lightning chaser everything becomes so easy.

    From what i saw when my faction did it yesterday FF is now far more about tactics and knowing how to fight each boss rather than player lvl. The first time we fourght dreadlindra (the boss that constantly summons minions) we got wiped as the cleric got killed by the minions and so we lost the barb to the boss. When we retuned i soloed the obss with my herc while the rest of the squad just killed the minions as soon as they spawns so we didnt get over whealmed.

    When we first fought the runewolf BM barb and my herc all got 1 shotted by his "super mighty power whirling slash" after that its just hit and run. he takes 5 seconds to cast the slash during which time he doesnt move so the melle players leg it while archers and wiz blast the hell out of him

    The oceania master killed us a few itme til we worked out that the hands he summons dont actually explode they have a ranged suicide attack that deals 5000dmg so you have to kill them within 10 seconds of them spawning other than that keep running and dodge the other explosive minions that he spawns
