first off lets get the basic info out of the way
Time: 5pm EST
metting spot: PoK at OT book be there at 4:30 so we can start getting epople over there
level requirement: i am going to set this at 50 for THIS raid if it doesnt work i am bumping it up to 55 next time
faction requirments: you must be doub to CoV to attend we will ONLY make acceptions IF your class is REQUIRED such as cleric, chanter, etc.
what we will do is port as many at a time as we can to CS get them to SG then over to WW. hopign enough know the way to ToV that those can head over while we get the others if not we will stay in CS till all arrive and head over that way.
YOU WILL NOT TRY TO RUN THROUGH SG ON YOUR OWN i am not kidding about this we will 1 CotH or 2 succor people over again i am not kidding about this you take off in SG and die your out of luck no rez no one is going to help you get your body back stay where your told to and we will get you over there.
this raid is for one reason and one reason only to test our rading abilitiies as a guild you will follow the instructions given to you by myself or anyone i appoint as back up raid leader.
Elth was kind enough to give us a map however i dont see directons on it like North, South, etc so we will guess the best we can. here is the map look at it get to know it. i will have a print out of it at my side during the raid.

resist are very important in TOV so plz do wha tyou can to get it up as high as you can CR/FR/MR/PR/DR will be given as buffs but you really should have no less then 100 MR/CR/FR unbuffed. some mobs dispell and not sure if i will know in advance going in if they do or not so plz try to get at least 2 junk or /shrug i dont care if they get dispelled or not buffs up before we do the major ones.
i do need to ask a cleric and a necro (if one attends) to bidn outside of ToV incase of a wipe so we can get up and running quickly i will ask people to do this before we leave for WW.
group leaders will be considered in a way back up raid leaders all group leaders, myself, and the back up raid leader will be in a seperate channel so we can talk about issues we see sugestions etc so we can make this run as smooth as possible.
this will not be a long raid we are just going to go for about 2 to 3 hours max more if we do well and we want to press on. most of us have never been to ToV so this is a learing exp for us all. plz dont take my comments as being harsh but we realy need to do this right and well this will deterime what we have to work on for raids and raiding
chat channels and so forth are as follows
/rs will be used for INC, mezes, slows, asists and info about mobs, moving, etc there will be NO chat in /rs their willb e no heal calls in /rs there will be no spam in /rs.
/kotg will be chat after the raid is formed you can tak about what ever you want to in there i prob will have the channel off during the raid cuz i will need to keep track of more things then chat
/kotgleaders this will liek i said before for raid leaders and group leaders i do not wish to see anyone not on that list in there its will bearly be used jsut for info about what everyone is seeing and what not so we can run a smooth raid
/kotgheal will be used for CH rotation only no need to call heals guys so lets not spam channels do not ask for heals in channel either. group healers will take care of thier groups so...also a group healers will say in this channel if we are in a fight and LoM so anothr healer can take over for them if they can/need be.
this may be put off cuz we really needed 3 clerics over 60 and a bard and weill Elth is still KOS and so is Hali i am sure.
will make a deceions and let you know as soon as i decide how to proceed.
We also need an experienced FD puller. Nothing worse than have 3 or 4 mobs AoEing at the same time.
I should be able to do this raid. I can pull if needed also, but remember AoE are deadly to an FD if more than one mob is casting it.
