Preperation

Before you head up to the plane, you should set things up so as to minimize lag. Turn off chat filters for other hits, other misses, and turn spells to GROUP and bard songs to ME. Turn off spell effects and dynamic lights and turn on server filtering. Turn off player names in the display options.

You should set up a mez hotkey that /oocs what target you're mezing.

Buffing

Once we get up there, one enchanter will be assigned to give out c2 and another for aq. If you're not one of these and someone asks you for clarity or haste, you can give it to them, or you can direct them to the assigned enchanter.

You should give your group GRM because loathling liches cast grav flux.

Make sure that you get buffed to the gills. Mobs in hate hit really hard, and you'll take a beating.

Debuffs

One enchanter will be assigned to tash everything. This is probably going to be the lowest level enchanter.

Don't bother with slows, that job will be assigned to a shaman.

Spite golems MUST be dispelled. If they aren't, they run away at sow speed. One person will be assigned to dispell them.

If you're assigned to do a debuff, make a hotkey to ooc when you're successful.

Mezing

Most mobs in hate are very hard to mez. Make sure you are very buffed at all times.

Spite Golems are totally MR and so they're unmezzable. Don't even bother.

Ashenbone Drakes, female Forsaken Reverents, and Clerics of Innoruuk have very high MR. Do them last, or leave them to the high level enchanters.

Revulvant Rats, Ire Ghasts and Loathling Liches are easy to mez, do those first.

Watch ooc and shout to see which target the MA is on. Don't mez that one.

If you get resisted, try tashing if you haven't already. If you can't get a spell off, try using immobilize and backing off.

Targetting with all those players around is a pain. Do the best you can, and try not to die.

Color Stuns

DO NOT USE THESE SPELLS. AE spells in hate are bad. If you use them, you could possibly agro mobs from the second floor. This will at least get you HTed, and and worst cause a massive train that kills everyone.
