Summoner Einherjar burn?
Someone has approached me about a summoner burn Einherjar linkshell. He is confident that the twenty five or so summoners and a handful of others such as tanks and support would be capable of clearing Einherjar. Six minutes or so for the first waves using astral flow and twenty minutes or more for attempting to kill the boss. I can see how this would work, but I am questioning the reliability of the group because I do not know who he has recruited. If we always need twenty or more summoners to be successful along with a handful or red mages, bards, and a paladin or two are we always going to get these numbers? People have a tendacy to flake out when they are not immediately rewarded with an item or immediately after receiving an item they want. A point system to ensure activity will be good. Negative points for not showing up quickly weeds out the dregs.
I wonder if the strategy would work. A paladin pulls and uses invincible at some point. The mobs cluster and a whole lot of astral flows go off and wipe the mobs pretty fast. Blood pact after blood pact later the boss dies. How would we handle the numerous casting mobs we would get. A series of strong spells all on the paladin will keep some of the mobs spread out. Only a couple would be alive after the initial astral flow, so it might not be that bad. Worms don't exactly move. A big worm spawn might be impossible to do. The first Einherjar I did we got worms and the marlboro boss up in the middle of them. I suppose we could run in and individually blood pact them, but that is hardly efficent. Some of the bosses have crazy tp moves. What would we do to deal with those without a stun order? Or maybe they wouldn't be much of a problem with bloodpacts and dozens of avatars floating around.
The Einherjar has been scheduled for Tuesday at 10:30pm est. While this doesn't conflict with Limbus for me if we enter late I will have problems being late for Limbus and Limbus will come first. I told him I would try to make the first couple of runs to see if it will work. I am very busy with everything I schedule, but being able to make this would be nice. I definately want to do Einherjar and if this is successful I will be happy.
