I owe all of the friends who helped me on this mission a huge debt of gratitude. Thank you, Hoss, Rucca, Anviper, Cyprian and Demetria, for coming on this run with nothing to gain but the happiness of helping friends. Thank you, Mascrapone, for recruiting and your efforts in organizing our parties. Thank you, Firewall, for filling in our empty slots with skilled players, and above all else, convincing me that we could actually do this. Finally, thank you, Aydindril, for your epic tanking; we really couldn't have done it without you.For this run, we used a "Supertank" method, which entails a tank catching initial sight/sound agro and straight-tanking the mob without generating enmity; effectively the PLD can be healed ad nauseum. Aydindril caught agro from the 5 angels, trained them back to the entrance where she was healed, while the other two parties took down each of the angels one by one. We pulled the Elvaan to start, then the Galka, the Mithra, whatever remaining pets, the Hume, and finally, we all converged on the Tarutaru, who was Warping helplessly around the arena.
To be honest, I got a little worried when I saw this, about 15 seconds into the fight:
[Aside: Wow, I just realized how creepy the 2008 thing is] She went on to massacre our DD-party PLD, Rucca, and a few other DDs, but luckily we pulled through with minimal difficulty and death. Our clear time was a little over 20 minutes.
Not as badass as tanking 4 Ark Angels, but I did get a few consolation prizes. :3
Congratulations to everyone who needed the win; thank you to everyone who helped us get through.
