After some weeks of steady progression, most of it cleaning up our act in p2 and somewhat in p1, where we were actually going too fast for our own good , we downed Carapace of N'zoth in what I'd call a solid kill. We got there bit by bit, our biggest frustration was p2 where in the end the best strategy proved to be pulling all the stops and making sure we did it quickly enough to skip a 3rd set of madness bombs. Finally p3 didn't take nearly as long, we ended up doing a shorter nuke version of the fight as opposed to moving around the whole room, so we lusted a tad sooner and nuked it down in order to shorten the fight. It worked a treat and boss went splat

Progression on this boss was largely a case of getting comfortable with the space, minimizing the clutter with the beams and just staying calm and resisting the urge to blast our teammates too hard whenever they were mind-controlled Its a long fight, and very small mistakes can blow up the raid, however I think we made good progress, and killed it on our 2nd or 3rd time getting the boss to the last phase.

On our first evening we went for this boss we nearly got it down, 3% I think it was. So 2nd raid evening on it it didn't take us all that long to down it. This boss was mostly about having everyone focus on positioning and having everyone play defensively whenever the heavy raid dmg went out. We had plenty of dps to spare and lets face it mechanically there isn't all that much going on besides dodge stuff and hit whatever new dangly bit has sprung out of the ground



Well done everyone and grats on various new shinies!

All in all this was another fun boss to progress on, we did sadly have two entire raids where disconnects and serious lag made it very difficult to get much done which slowed us down a fair bit and frustrated us, however once we got past that we made solid strides in solidifying p1. In last nights raid we got to work on the last phase of the fight properly, we had previously seen it a handful of times at the end of the previous raid, and with some slight tweaks to how we handled the spreading for the lightning and with a more loosely spread as opposed to stacked raiding grp we got the boss down Well done everyone, and grats to all that got something new and shiny!

On our third raid on the boss, a little after halfway through the evening we landed the kill. Nice fight, fairly scripted if you do it right, much like the boss before it, though less "out there" in terms of mechanics compared to the football boss. Well done everyone who contributed to the kill, and grats to all those that got some new loot!
