Vaelastrasz : Red Dragonflight


Vaelastrasz downed last night. An incredibly fun and technically demanding fight. Your team has to output about 1.3 million points of damage into him within 3 to 4 minutes otherwise you lose. Just a rundown of his abilities - he casts a magic effect on players, killing one every 25 seconds roughly (you cannot save them) frequentily targeting the maintank... he cannot be taunted, so you need to place secondary tanks high up the aggro list to take over... his fire breath AOE does 4500 fire damage to a large area... frequent fire nova with 120 yard range for 1500 damage... physical attack for 2000 damage on plate wearer, 3500 on leather, and god knows how much damage on cloth wearers... hmm, and he cleaves, works like chainlightining -> it jumps from player to player, killing entire groups at once. His burning flames debuff is something like 5000+ damage every 3 seconds while it's active on you. Very cool fight.

And Xany scored the highest damage output on this boss on our kill attempt, 460dps, or a little over 110,000 damage inside of 4 minutes. The chat conversation after that was amusing, since she's new to the guild, by my invitation, using a crap green weapon, and she's already proving her worth (and the worth of all my player recommendations too =p). Chat went something along the lines of "all you other rogues, you're fired". Go girl, hehe =p

I like to fancy myself as the warrior that has the highest damage mitigation, but shall be for the healers to decide =p
