After Kuan and Morn got their
fabulous cloaks we were wandering around exploring the bits of the
Timeless Isle we'd been unable to reach. Specifically we were exploring
the Ordon Sanctuary.
We cloaked over there and slaughtered angry fiery Yaungol. We
looted altars and ate fire flowers. We looted that last Blazing Chest.
We were just about bored of killing Yaungol when someone asked for more
for Ordos. I asked and they claimed that their group would be full
soon. This was a lie, but eventually we had a full raid and were ready
to kill Ordos, Fire God of the Yaungol.
While we were waiting for the raid to fill I perused the
Dungeon Journal for Ordos. Turns out that the Fire God of the Yaungol
has a lot of fire attacks! He sets people on fire. He puts pools of fire
on the ground. He puts fire trees down that attack the closest people.
Oh and there is a pretty limited space to fight him, so be careful with
his placement so you don't run out of room before he runs out of health.
Anyway I was hoping that the other tank had some sort of clue,
since I'd not pulled him before. I'd just gotten my cloak a couple of
hours before! But no, the other tank was someone's alt. He or she wasn't
all that sure about how to tank, let alone how to tank Ordos.
Okay then. Time for some basic crap-on-the-ground tanking.
We'll start him in one corner and work around the outside edge of the
room. Hopefully that gives enough space to work in.
Pull and death by BBQ.
It turns out that when Ordos sets people on fire, they also
burn the people around them. So if they don't run away the rest of the
raid gets toasted in a fairly fatal fashion, because he sets three or
four people on fire at the same time. At least, despite my not having
any clue about how much he needed to move, the wipe wasn't Morn's
fault. And since DraNgNon is fully capable of listening when DBM is all
"RUN THE FUCK AWAY" it wasn't Kuan's fault either.
Anyway we rezzed and ran back. Feasts were dropped and
harsh words were said about "RUN THE FUCK AWAY" or we all die. We lined
back up and I pulled Ordos again. This time I had a better idea of how
and where to pull him, so the movement and placement was a bit more
smooth. People ran away when then needed to and we slaughtered Ordos
with glee and only a few burns.
