Subject: Plane of Sky Update


Well, the weekend is over, and I spend almost all of it in the Plane of
Sky. This is basically what happened.

Day 1: Cleared Fairies and Azaracks, camped on Gorgalask

Day 2: Cleared Gorgalask and Pegasus, camped on Pegasus

Day 3: Recleared Pegasus, realized it was already 11PM, did some poking
around on Spirocs and jumped off, leaving a necro and cleric on pegasus

Some spoilers for how we handled pegasus/griffons below, as well as some
basic info on spirocs.

Of Griffons and Pegasus, Griffons are noticibly easier. Both of them
split into two sub 55 red cons's (tested w/ Bard Charm) which, when
killed, each spawn another > 55 cons.

The method we use to kill them is fairly simple. 1 group consisting of 2
warriors, 2 clerics, and 2 enchanters, and 4 melee/cleric groups, with
pure casters not really helping except with pets. That 1 group is known
as the "mez group". We kill the first one, and when it splits into 2,
everyone attacks the same target except for the mez group. The 2 warriors
from the mez group attack the other target, tanking it while the clerics
heal and the enchanters chain cast rune 3. The bards keep trying to charm
the first split to give the mez group 18 second breathers. Meanwhile,
everyone else kills the other one and the subsequent triggered spawn.
Finally, everyone kills the remaining spawn that the mez group has been
tanking the whole time.

Keeper of Souls (the boss) is on par with Innoruuk in difficulty, so not
too bad.

Spirocs. All I will say about spirocs is you don't have to combat drop
in. It's perfectly safe to run around most of the island. The agro range
on the spirocs is like 0.1 ft, with the exception of The Spiroc Guardian
and The Spiroc Lord. Despite them consing scowls, they don't generally
attack unless you run right up to a roost.

We got a ton of drops, just nothing for clerics or bards :(.
