Nine Swords

The lag was nightmarish--2 people disconnected within fifteen minutes of each other--but on our successful run we killed that sucker in under five minutes.

yay - anyone get the achievement for it?

Unless LAL didn't have it already (And I'm pretty sure he's been on a 5-min kill with us), everyone in the raid team had it already. But it was our first since the patch. I think people are getting used to the new DoD, or have replaced it with something else.

Actually, that was my first 5-min kill. That's why I was so excited.

I have replaced DoD, though. My AR/Blood build now uses Shellshocker with a rampant augment while my AR/Ele Short Fuse loadout uses Power Line-Voltaic Detonation.

Then GRATZ!!!

Well, congrats then Deer!

Nice one. MissR's now rocking a semi leechy AR/Blood build replacing D or D with Red Mist for the laughs in normal operation. Used it in the raid today and pulled a few near 20K force crits with it. Works nice in Phase 3 when you're buffed. Didn't try it in Phase 1 and pulled it out for the Drakes.

Add control is still Shellshocker for the win, though.

Shellshocker is superb for adds. Especially when paired up with Conditional Force from Ele (No resource AoE if mobs are hindered). Whiteout works with Ele too, but I prefer Shellshocker's higher damage and instant hinder in phase 3 if rocking AR/Ele. Though, Whiteout is likely better in Phase 2. Drop the many to hit one group, take out the other, then come back and finish off the whiteout group.
