We’ve been downing Lurker and Hydross in SSC for a while. But it’s seemed like the past couple of weeks, we’ve been having issues with them both, invariably the nights I’ve had to miss because of work or whatever. Spending over an hour flinging myself at a boss I KNOW we’ve spanked every other week for what seems like ages is just highly annoying to me.
So last night, I went into SSC expecting that we’d have issues yet again. Sure enough, I had a couple of moments that I found out exactly how red my face could turn while we were killing trash. Nothing BIG, and one moment where a bunch of us all messed up at once so we wiped, but still enough to get me angry and frustrated at myself. Once everyone regrouped, rebuffed, and bounced to Hydross tho, I’d settled down into my hunter groove and was merrily committing carnage with everyone else. Then it came time for the boss fight…
We pwned him.
One of the smoother fights we’d ever had on him, and by far the best one in weeks. The transitions went smoothly, no one pulled aggro from the tanks, and the adds were killed quickly. The guild cheered, the loot was divided and we raced off to start on Lurker trash. That went pretty well, including the one accidental pull by The Boyfriend who was trying to mark the groups. He got just a litttttle too close and boom, aggro. We picked it up and recovered from it decently, and before we knew it, we were ready to smack around Lurker.
Once again, we pwned him.
I’ve found myself stuck on the island that everyone hates, the one with the hole in the center. I’ve been there for weeks, working with our uber pally tank and whoever else is in the group with us, and honestly, it’s never bothered me being on that island. He and I have got a good rhythm going on, so he never worries about me, and I never worry about him. We killed our adds in record time and were prepped and ready for the Lurker each time he popped up.
So go team, we win at the beginning of SSC. Great one-shots of both the bosses. Tonight is Tidewalker, and with any luck, starting the learning of Leo the Blind. The one attempt we made at him after our Tidewalker kill last week was amusing as hell, and we’re eager to get going on him.
