We went to Hate again yesterday evening. 3 groups of experienced players and
each group had a bard. Things went well. We had 2 chanters and one or the
other died a time or 2 but the other took care of the mobs til we got the
other rez'ed back in. As chance would have it, we had a big pull, nothing
that we hadn't already done, but somehow we kept aquiring more mobs. One
chanter died, mine was still alive but struggling to cast under fire. I
started SoT'ing things off of her but she died anyway. Both chanters are
down and a couple more mobs show up. Each bard picks a couple mobs and SoT's
start flying. We were able to keep everything pinned down til one by one the
mobs died. It Really helped that the shaman slowed all the mobs as quick as
possible. This kept me I know from getting pounded into mush on resists. The
groups made a point to keep things off the clerics and worked with the
bards. They picked targets, called them and all stayed on the same one.
No Maestro, no Inny and one bard bracer dropped. I got it by default but I
actually think my Kylong bracer is better, for me anyways.
