Personally, I think that it's easy for the group (especially a PUG of sorts like this) to do it if the 1-2 who need clears have experience to Twisters (and know how to dodge them/watch the video >.>)
We put together a drunken party on July 4 that was a PUG and got through to Twisters just fine on the first pull (... except for when someone didn't know anything about Twisters soooo it went downhill from there). I personally think that if -everyone- knew how to deal with the mechanics that that could have been a one-shot. The only thing we had was one person using the 45-sec macro for 2nd divebomb set warning. We also had both tanks not knowing clearly who was MT or OT until the two of us who were with a fairy went "pls come. one of you ; ; ) but it worked out juuuuust fine!
... until the first Twister since someone didn't know how to dodge them.
As such those who -need- a clear would be responsible for getting experience and watching at least MTQCapture's vid. But it's definitely do-able.
So far the Roster for people with experience and clears:
Natalie (PLD,WHM)
Kage (BLM-clear, PLD-no exp)
Okichi (Heals and DPS)
Hiro (MNK-clear, PLD no exp)
Aya (DRG)
Naunet (WHM)
Merri (MNK, WAR)
Otto (WHM)
Experienced but not cleared yet(?)
Nebbs (Tank)
Franz (SCH, could WHM if necessary)
The Wizard (MNK)
Roster of those who would like help with it
Clover (Heals)
Oscare (BRD)
People who I haven't put into a list yet because I'm not sure where they stand or if actually wanted:
K'nahli and Oscare
Depending on timing and if I love you I am also very willing to help join parties that need a DPS to learn the fight. I've offered it to friends I've made in the RP community and will continue to lend a willing body here. Either that, or people should join our drunken T5 parties *nod*
Quick Edit: Please post if that time seems like a doable one or when you think you may be free! I have no life so generally my PDT afternoons/evenings are free unless I schedule something.
