Wayfarers of Veeshan

Time: 1pm CST (11am PST/ 2PM EST)

Goal: To explore a zone that will be new to most of us. The plan is to try the halls of testing.

Meet: In PoK at the Shar Vahl Stone. It is conveniently located in the corner between Nexus & PoT. From there we will Port to CS and make the trip to ToV.

This will be open to anyone 50+ with at least duboius CoV faction. It is recommended getting Fire & Cold Resists as high as possible beforehand as well.

If anyone has some good reference material about this zone, then please post links below.

Great Guide......Nice Find !!!!

I must say, thats a NICE explaination of MT tactics!!

Now with the chat channel thingie it's VERY helpful to have all clerics in their own channel (join /wovheal) and have the cast order worked out ahead of time.

Ok I have been on two Kael raids and killed enough Frost Giants I never really wanna kill one agian.. But other than walking up to a dragon and asking him how he's doing? How can I accurately check my faction with them?

With the channel thing, I've been making Shaman channels on each raid that I do that has more then one shaman in it.

_________________

The easiest was to check faction is to get a port to Cobalt Scar. Once there just peek out of the ring and con a drake or wyvern. These are all on CoV faction, but only the 2 named ones have faction hits.

I just wanna let all know who are gonna want to come on this Raid that the min. level for doing HoT is 55, unless of course ur decked out in all Uber armor already, then maybe a 53 or a 54 might do. Also just because u have been to Kael 2x that doesnt mean that u have enuff faction to go to ToV. I would suggest that anyone wanting to come to ToV start hunting in Kael to get ur faction solidly on CoV faction & if ur not 55 yet to hunt in PoP or Seb to get ur levels up.

The other way to check your faction is to go to the wurm cavens in Great Divide, there's a named wurm there (not the Broodmother) who is under CoV faction.

I would recommend looking over this post before going. I read it before my first HoT outing and even tho it is 1.5 years old it holds very true on all the mobs still. Trying to get spells to stick on a 100% MR mob will just get you trouble. Alot of the AE's can be removed with Celstial Cleansing or the quested LoY spell from what I remember. Anvilhead was MT for alot of raids that first went here from RoS along time ago. Whoever the puller is going to be will also want to take a look at this pulling guide from Monkly Business. If your mobs are pulled in the wrong order you have the chance of a mob gating back to his spawn and summoning and killing you one at a time with several mobs between you and the ledge. The door leading to the ledge is referred to as the HOT door. If you are fighting inside and someone opens it, Zemm and several of the outside drakes will assist. If the door is shut and you drag corpses, they come thru the door and hurt you. Only way to corpse drag is to fd and /summon when fd'ed. Don't worry about taking too many people, there have been numerous occasions that because of adds or gates that we wiped a 40 person, avg level 60 raid here. One of the nicest zones I've seen but can be tough at times.
