Humpy Posted a Guide: Rise of the Phoenix Ereandorn Strategy
This boss is not a Hammerknell boss but since there is no Rise of the Phoenix Guilds area then I am posting it here. I can move it when this is fixed. I posted it here since this raid is Hammerknell level. Ereandorn is the first boss in Rise of the Phoenix. Before he appears you must go through three phases of trash. The first two phases are pretty simple Tank and spank and AOE the mobs down. The Third round of trash is two dragons that come out, These Two dragons have two major things to know about them...

Table of Contents ----------------------------- Part 1: Introduction Part 2: Support specs Part 3: Playing support Part 4: Random advice for new 50s support clerics Part 5: The case against Duracell, and why it is NOT a support spec. Final Note Acronyms & Glossary Appendix A Part 1: Introduction ----------------------------- "Support" can take a few meanings. I simply interpret it as, "did you earn your spot" in the dungeon/raid/warfront. Tank - earns her spot by mitigating enough damage to last through the encounter...

Humpy Posted a Guide: Immovable Warrior Spec
By Humpy This spec is one that I designed off the 1.6 patch, It has nice features to it and I use it quite often specially on a fight where I take a high amount of damage. For Instance in Deep Strike Mines, Caretaker Arcanis has an achievement to kill the boss without killing any of the adds. On this fight I used this spec because this spec gives you the ability Bend like the Reed. Also Bend like the Reed has only a 1 minute cooldown. When I use this Bend Like The Reed in this spec as a tank it gives me an aditional 75% chance to parry and brings my total parry up to about 90% chance to parry in the gear I currently have...

Humpy Posted a Guide: Cinderstorm Puzzle
To call Cinderstorm to fight him you have two choices. One of these choices is to solve the puzzle in the room yourself or you can use the NPC that was comes out of the cage. If you solve the puzzle yourself, after Cinderstorm is dead a chest will appear in the back of the room. This chest will give you a Potions Cache. The reason why you can do this mainly is because the Potions Cache has a chance of dropping a rare companion. This companion only drops from the Potion Cache's your recieve in Caducius Rise...

Humpy Posted a Guide: Prince Hylas Strategy
Prince Hylas Prince Hylas is a two phased fight. This fight I suggest a you use 4 tanks for this fight. When it comes to this fight it is a big heal intensive fight so it is really good to have around 8 or 9 healer/support and around 7 or 8 DPS. For the first Phase the boss will spawn 3 adds each of which resemble a previous boss. Duke Letareus, Infiltrator Johlen and Oracle Aleria. When you pull prince Hylas you will have about 15 seconds to DPS the boss before the first add spawns. The first to spawn is Duke Letareus, the tank who picks up Duke letareus needs to keep an eye out for a green pool because this is where he will spawn...

Humpy Posted a Guide: Best found Warrior DPS spec and Macros
This is a spec that I use and many warriors use similar. It is a 2 handed paragon spec based highly off the ability Rising Waterfall. This spec has great single target and AOE capability and also has a good decent amount of Ranged damage that I have managed to pull at least 800 DPS at ranged for my gear level. But as a warrior that isn't really too bad. http://rift.zam.com/en/stc.html?t=1cukL.iet00AucM.EhszV0b00z.b The spec has a lot to do with the buffs you use for the kind of damage you are doing List of Buffs: Focus of Body - Increases strength by 40 Storm Blade - Adds a little extra damage Way of the Mountain - Makes you Immune to knock backs and also makes you immune to the damage that knock back abilities cause, also increases the damage of followup attacks such as Rising Waterfall by 30% Way of the River - Increases Crit my 3% Way of the Wind - Not Important Slayer's Bearing - Increases Critical Strike Damage by 15% Soldier's Bearing - Not Important Way of the wind, and Soldier's Bearing will not be used at all so you can leave them off your buff bar if you please...

Humpy Posted a Blog: Poor Tom, The Cursed - Part 1
This is the story of Poor Tom, the Cursed. How Tom and Fionasinna fell in love and how they became to be as they are now. The story will be made of many parts so keep checking back for more! Part 1 I know I shouldn't blame myself for what happened, but sometimes I can't help thinking that if I had just done something different that day. If I would have tried harder that day then things could've been different today. I was 19 at the time. Fionasinna and I had been best friends since we were five years old and we'd been dating for about a year...

Humpy Posted a Guide: Oracle Aleria Strategy
This boss fight is made up of two phases and can be very easy. This boss is not a DPS check but more of a fight that you have to pay attention, but the boss does still have an enrage timer. Phase 1 During phase 1 there are 2 adds along side the boss who need to be split up. One of these bosses who we will be marking as number 1 who is on the right of the boss is boss best suited for melee. this boss will be pulled over to the hedge to the right of the boss. The other add is one best suited for ranged due to this boss does AOE attacks...

Humpy Posted a Guide: Infiltrator Johlen strategy
This Strategy is for Johlen. First we start off by spreading the ranged and healers out around the room away from the Melee and tanks, doing this makes it so the Minimum amount of people must move during the Pushing Bombs. The Ranged Rogues in the fight will need to spam there AOE ability's during these bombs to blow them up as soon as possible to reduce the chances of the bombs to blow people across the room and into the whisps. The healers will be in place for the remainder of the fight and will not need to move through any phase except to move out of the bombs, when moving out of the bombs they will move back torward the tree...

Mittens Posted a Guide: Mittens PVP Healing build
Hello everbody, im Mittens :) Ive never written a guide before, so sorry if this is not well organized. A few folks asked about my pvp warfront build, so i thought i'd post it. ___________________ First, im not saying this is absolutely the best build. Im no authority on pvp.

Cathal Posted a Blog: Sabelle's Pain (part 5)
Walking down the dirt path Sabelle heard the unmistakable sounds of magical combat. The power that permeated the air enticed her. Someone was fighting with a type of magic she did not know the touch of. It intrigued her in a strange way and she wanted to know the source of this power. Keeping to the shadows, her dark robe helping to keep her hidden, she crept to a nearby glade where the fighting was occurring. A group of bandits were trying to kill a lone mage. The fight was almost comical...

Peigra Posted a Blog: Calton's Shadow, Pt 11
“You might as well go,” Rira had told her. “What is here for you to do now? They will be in one spot until your ankle heals.” “You’re sending me away?” “You will be taking the young ones with you, who are going there at the same time.” Rira had kissed Peigra’s braids and ignored a deep, frustrated sigh from her companion. Two weeks from when she had taken the fall, Peigra had been informed by Rira that Gar wanted her with his clan, immediately, as soon as Baltik could safely carry her there...
