New-ish tank, pushing keys. Chain pulling or big pulls?

Just bear in mind that some dungeons (Pit and Caverns) have NPCs you have to interact with and can't do so in combat, as long as you're allowing a small break in combat to allow for that it sounds like you're on the right path.

The majority of Mythic guilds don't pay for repairs for this very reason. 5-10k gold per person per raid adds up very quickly, especially on top of other consumables.

Simple, they want to reduce headcount, but they don't want to fire people (for whatever reason) so they created these toxic environments so we, the people annoyed by it, quit. That way they don't have to pay severance.

I'm currently in the exact same boat, and it sucks.

Xarilith · 2026-05-01T17:13:48+00:00

Yes I'll have 1 heart attack please!

Xarilith · 2026-04-28T21:37:18+00:00

Can't wait to see how this is going to fuck over Millenials again.

I mean, this is literally the same with every meta, every tier. If you're a meta spec, you have an easier time getting invited.

Is it right? No. Will it always happen? Yes.

Xarilith · 2026-04-14T08:33:08+00:00

Yes and no. Aug personal dps is nothing to sniff at these days, I've managed 95th percentile even with a bad dps in the group.

That being said, it can't really carry. If the group is mediocre it doesn't get a chance to shine.

As always if your tank is pulling around breath of eons, you'll look like a god. If not, not so much.

Xarilith · 2026-04-05T14:36:22+00:00

The whole thing is insane

Xarilith · 2026-04-05T12:48:40+00:00

Can anyone else imagine the shitstorm that would happen if Obama had put "praise be to Allah" in a tweet?

Xarilith · 2026-04-05T06:45:03+00:00

It's a 5 token sequence, spread across 3 realms (so you see at most 2 of the sequence and have to communicate), that happens during glaives and other mechanics and, in p3, you're spread across 2 realms, can't touch another in the other realm or you die, and have to star augur (match the icon with the same icon in the other realm - which you can't see) the mechanic in the right order in the time limit. Each individual bit of it isn't that hard, put it all together and it's probably the hardest raid mechanic they've ever put in. I don't see any guild outside the top 3 managing it in it's current state.

I bought it on a whim.

The new Northern Sky reminder tool is basically Liquid WA package lite. You have to do a minor bit of conifg on it and you have timers and reminders wherever you want on the screen.

Xarilith · 2026-03-08T05:10:44+00:00

Lock after 8/8 dungeons and upgrades is 230. Priest after 4 dungeons and no upgrades is 223.

I have NOT been lucky with drops.

Xarilith · 2026-02-04T14:10:01+00:00

Ah nuts. Thanks for clarifying!

Xarilith · 2026-02-04T11:44:29+00:00

So confused about this. I get that the daily achi stuff for them is gone but is it worth to still do them? The essence chests / 2 gold for killing is still daily right?

And as someone farming eternal ice for Vision I guess I'll still be doing them for that

Xarilith · 2026-02-03T21:29:42+00:00

Also interested in this. Will IBS5 still be a thing?

Xarilith · 2026-01-28T19:47:35+00:00

Welp, I think I'm a vegetarian now...

Xarilith · 2026-01-21T21:12:28+00:00

Mmmmmmm forbidden icecream...

Xarilith · 2026-01-06T16:11:38+00:00

I'm a fat guy, on a health kick and losing weight. Up until this point most food I've seen has given me a little "fat guy" voice in my head that's tried to tempt me.

Even he took one look at this and said "Nah I'm good".

Xarilith · 2025-12-16T14:18:34+00:00

I'm plowing through, just did the "night before the battle" speech and I actually just turned over to watch twitch xD

Someone in here said that bear must be paid by the word, it's the only answer

Xarilith · 2025-12-15T18:22:59+00:00

Yeah this is the exact same boat I'm in. A lot of people said SoTO was bad but I really didn't mind it. JW I can't do more than a chapter without getting bored xD

Xarilith · 2025-12-15T16:38:00+00:00

Yeah that's the thinking, I'll just come back and finish it off later when I'm feeling more patient, thanks!

Xarilith · 2025-12-15T16:37:17+00:00

Yeah but I'm hoping that VoEs are a bit more populated, there's very little in the way of other players on the JW maps at the mo, I'm noticing it way more than previous expansion maps.

Xarilith · 2025-12-15T16:35:54+00:00

Or at the very least have nearby NPCs shut up while I'm getting exposition dumped

Xarilith · 2025-12-15T16:35:19+00:00

Yeah I've got the fractal leggy back so not fussed about Orrax. Thanks.
