In Nat's post she's mentioned aiming for a few hours on Saturday. I think we're generally seeing a good day and seeing what time slots people may have available.

For example, I'm typically free all day on Saturday barring scheduled exceptions such as taking a car in for maintenance in the mornings or having a café day that will mean I'm only free 4pm PDT onwards etc.

Ahah. I have no current obligations (sadly).

I've watched a couple videos and made it as far as the second divebomb phase with pug groups but at that point everything typically goes to hell and the tanks and healers abandon.

I'm bad, and that's good. I will never be good, and that's not bad. There's no one I'd rather be than me.

OOps, meant to say I'm completely inexperienced at T5. Also, update to my ilvl. It's now 92. \o/

I've watched videos, so I have a somewhat clear-ish understanding of what to do. I don't mind sitting out for as long as I need to because I'll probably get nervous and flail utterly when it actually comes to me fighting, lol.

Times that work with me are... well, really, any day except Monday nights. I'm EST too.

Like I said, if people want experience, I'm also willing to join an RPC T5 learning party if you need a dps.

@TheWizard, can you explain what usually goes wrong in those? Most of the times I see it's because of people not grouping for divebombs well but I'm not sure. Is it because people aren't prepared?

@Oscare: Cool cool thanks!

If stuff starts going wrong when the second divebomb set starts, it's usually a result of tunnel visioning and missing the beep for the divebomb. People may also slip out of position and find themselves too far up the ditch, which can result in a misplaced Twintania. A countdown macro and maintaining general raid awareness will solve that.

I've actually never used a countdown macro but I've seen one used twice now. (I also have no idea how macros work >.> )

I've learned one way to force people to make tight stacks is to use a way mark on the ditch so that people are forced in only half the circle (otherwise they touch the flames).

Anyone doing T5 should feel free to ask me if they need a DPS!  I've only beaten it twice, but I'm pretty sure that I still know what I am doing :-]

I may be too busy to come help, but its worth asking!

(And iLevel 100, I think, may be 99!)

@Oscare: Cool cool thanks!

People sometimes spread too much on the snakes and get the divebomb, also Ive been in groups which lack a magic lb and once we wipe everyone leaves. Another issue ive seen is DPS killing the small snakes too early or getting the damage up debuff.

Surprisingly it hasn't seemed to have been my fault yet.

I'm bad, and that's good. I will never be good, and that's not bad. There's no one I'd rather be than me.
