(less to heal the tank with) Poor performance by the video recorder by running upto the encounter to loot/check items before the party is recovered. I did enjoy watching the effects and attacks of the boss to each party member shown on screen, that shows some interesting AoE spells and mechanics to be learnt and avoided with timing and effects from the said encounter.

Totally agree. I'd hate to be in a raid with that guy. Just because you're making a vid doesn't mean you get to act like an idiot. Getting close to a boss that does aoes on a Sorc? Stupid. Yes, it was a nice close up but guess what you died. Not good for making a vid with imo. He stayed close to the boss pretty much the whole time then when he's low on health he jumps AWAY from the healer. Stupid, stupid. He's the most squishy ranged class and he doesn't even make use of his range to keep from getting hit to ease the pressure on the healer. That's the kind of person I'd have to let die or give a warning that I'll kick them mid raid if they don't stop being stupid, stupid, stupid. Sorry for the rant but idiots making vids just ************es me off so much. It's not cool to display no skill.

So the raiding content: 10 mans? 24 mans? What are they like?

just looks like the abyss npc monster?

[Roxx]

This fight is completly awesome If only he could be some kind of "final boss"

[Valis]

Very nice, i love the whole design of this game.

[Marti]

Looks like a simple tank and spank, not incredibly impressive, and the amount of health he seems to have also raises some concern. Thats like what? 10% in 10 minutes? Doesn't seem right.

[Excite]

Looks like another tank and spank.

What exactly do the people saying Tank and Spank expect? It has been the same since EQ 1. That is why PvP is a lot more fun and viable because real players always change tactics. You cannot expect much from an NPC even a boss.

Mmm, no.

Thankfully, I'm not going to be playing this game for it's pve content, or i'd be disappointed.

You can expect a lot from bosses in WoW. Obviously you eventually master their tactics, but even when you do they're a heck of a lot more entertaining than standing in one place, spamming the same five buttons for who knows how long.

hah! They are NOW, 6 years into the game. WoW was a tank-spankathon untill later into MC, even if they did spice it up now and then with a "run in circles while tanking and spanking". Also, keep in mind that the first raids did not even hit WoW untill months after launch. From what I have read, the most recent update has added two higher level instances that require a bit more strat to kill, which is a good sign, but I believe AION is still in the "dungeon" stage, and hasn't really started adding, and may never add, the whole "5-6 hours a night, all week, to clear" type instance. It frankly would not make sense in a pvp-focused game to have dungeons that couldn't be figured out and farmed relatively easy, since you should be spending most of your time pew-pewing in the Abyss and not QQ'ing in a dungeon.

**I also agree that I would /wrist if I had to play with the person filming this vid.. I appreciate the effort they put in, but they really didn't help that group very much lol.:cry:
