Sooo here’s the rub. once my summer break starts around the end of May, I’d really like to start running a static Tumblbee NM raid group! Get those shiny QL11s, ‘m I right?
Buuut here’s the thing… NM Raids are some of the most demanding PvE content in the game right now. So, contrary to my usual methods, I’m gonna need to set some ground rules about applicants.
The Purpose: Sweet, sweet loot and something new to do! Also, once the initial group starts gearing up, we’ll be able to take even MORE Tumblbees through the NM Raids! Exciting!
Minimum Gear Level: All talismans and weapons for your role to 10.9.5. All AEGIS to 2.9. All AEGIS capactiros to QL7 (thank you @x-i-e ) Yes, I know, Heals and Tanks have more wiggle room here but I’mma make it as fair as I can across the board. Everyone just needs to be fully kitted, okay? Baseline.
Parse Test (DPS): Sorry folks, but even fully kitted I am going to take you through a quick NM Pol before I say yes or no in order to parse you. :/ I know, i don’t like it either, but it is what it is.
Skill and Temperament: Look, the thing is that the sign ups will not be first come, first serve. Doing content like this, at least until the group has started to be mostly QL11s, is going to be some work. It’s tough work, and it can be disheartening to not down! So you need to be both 1) good at what you do and 2) capable of spending the entire night without winning with a smile. or at least, not lashing out at fellow players, rage quitting, or letting too much negative vibes enter your behavior.
Bee Mom, May is like 6 months away why are you talking about this now?
Because the grind to 2.9 AEGIS is a long and treacherous road, friends. To 2.0 is relatively quick with some savvy, from 2.0 to 2.4 isn’t too long, but 2.9? That takes approximately 5ever. I’m not even sure I’m going to be able to make it! But worry not, I know several others who will be geared and ready to lead if school makes this impossible for me. :D So it’s happening, no matter what!
Now I just need nine qualified, foolish brave souls!
Stay posted for more information and sign ups! Please like, reblog, or comment to indicate even a tentative interest. You don’t have to be geared right now. Just interested.
