    Lady Vox.. who dis?

    Lady Vox (level 55 in Permafrost Keep)

    - AE: Frost Breath (205 CR for 66% mitigation at level 52)
    - AE: Dragon Roar (205 MR for immunity at level 52)
    - 32k HP
    - weak to fire (70 FR)
    - too resistant for magic or disease slow
    - bellycaster, cleric, banishes toons over level 52


    Attendance Requirements

    Level 48-52
    Unbuffed Resists 100 MR / 85 CR

    Note that Clerics (39+ with Extended Range Heals) and Enchanters (with mana sieve) do not need to meet these requirements. Other utility classes that don't need to be in the AE (necros with twitch, shamans/druids with spot heals, etc.) can also bypass these requirements based on judgment calls at raid time.

    Also note that level 60s who are available to help with clearing the giant fort prior to the dragon fight are welcome.


    What do we have?

    1 fear-immune Warrior tank
    2 Wizards
    1 Cleric
    1 Rogue
    1 Ranger

    (All level 52)


    What do we need?

    -Enchanters! Vox is a cleric and has the disheartening ability to complete heal herself. Mana sieve from enchanters goes a long way to making sure this doesn't happen.

    -We will need 2-3 clerics to keep our MT alive.

    -At least one bard to enable fear immunity for DPS.

    More DPS/heals/anything else is also welcome for the fight as long as your characters meet the minimum requirements.



    Strategy

    Groups should comprise of 1 Bard, 1 Healer, and 4 DPS. If we don't have enough bards we will try and shuffle around to prioritize melees.

    Healers will heal from outside of Vox's LoS, thus avoiding the AE. It is imperative that when Vox is pulled she is tanked within range of the clerics' heals. Melees must also watch push to ensure she is kept in the right spot.

    Vox is a belly caster so nukers will have to run in and nuke her from underneath. Nukers should try and time this between AEs, especially if not in a bard group. Vox is vulnerable to fire spells (e.g. Draught of Fire for Wizards).

    Similar to nukers, any enchanters in attendance should wait between AEs to cast mana sieve. However, unlike nukes, mana sieve is unresistable, so enchanters should be able to pop out from behind the wall, cast the spell from a distance, and then duck back out of the AE range.


    Loot

    White dragon scale is reserved. All other loot will be random'd for greed.

    Silly me, I forgot to include a meeting point. If you're interested in attending, we'll be gathering in permafrost at 8:30 EST and making a go/no go decision based on force.

    Had to call no-go on this one due to some key players who couldn't make it. Keep your eyes open for a bump of this post and a new date.

    I will, once my BST is of level. I don't mind helping people.

    I would join, Vox drops lots of tasty treats, not everyone on this server has a bad bard alt that needs their epic.

    Edit: didn't realize the scale was also for the cloak. Point taken.

    Scale is not used for the cloak on this server.

    Just the White Dragon Hide.

    Scale only makes hard epic. Also I'd love to help if able!

    Killing dragons is fun and it's why I play the game. I've killed Nagafen and Vox dozens of times over the years and this is the first time I've needed anything from either of them.

    Our server is small and I've played with many of you over the past decade. Just looking to see who would like to join for the experience of defeating level-locked, exiled, ugly-cute lizards.


    That being said, the next Vox raid will be this Sunday, at 8:30 PM EST.

    Gather inside permafrost, the closer to on-time you can be the better. We will begin clearing immediately. The clear to Vox will take roughly 30mins-1hr depending on how much help we have, and Vox herself should take less than 20 minutes. If we wipe it may be a bit larger of a time commitment, but we'll try not to wipe!

    If Gore drops the scale, I'd be down to help kill her for you.

    She does drop the scale, but she's a very difficult mob to find up, which is why I created a team of Vox alts to obtain the scales through an alternative path. Thanks for the offer though, I'll hit you up in game if I see Gore skulking around.

    Vox/naggy can be easily boxed by 6 with the right twinking etc not surprised they aren't permadown
