Somewhat scrubby, but reliable, replacement who had never played SMN before that we picked up as things began to fall apart. At least they got Casting drops from everything minus 9 before we broke up, for what little good it did us.
That said, why isn't ACC a guaranteed stat on a weapon?
Anyways, for T6 speedkills, faster to wait and feed the honey target, or just push the phase and suicide the honey + possible extra bee?
he wont
This last week we pushed into last phase before it could eat honey for the first time and just ended up killing a couple bees in last phase because when we told our BLM to suicide the honey he said quote "fuck that". It ended up being not really that threatening given we clear fast anyways.
Did you manage to time the respawn time of the bees in last phase with honey out?
Not super precise but I can tell you one spawned after Acid Rain alongside the slimes and the other spawned at around 8% for us. Will keep an eye out next week since it'll probably happen again.
We've been dealing with hornets in the last phase for a while now. The goal should be to kill Rafflesia before the second hornet can sting (don't touch it).
0:00 Rafflesia starts casting Leafstorm
0:11 Rafflesia starts casting Acid Rain
0:18 Acidic Honeys spawn
0:24 Dark Matter Hornet spawns
1:19 Dark Matter Hornet spawns
Is there a general timing for towers and ballistic missiles in Savage? Currently we're having an issue where during the 3rd and 4th sets that towers come up as ballistic missiles go out, which essentially cuts our time to get towers in half. By time we get to the fifth it's back in sync, but those two in particular are being really uncooperative.
You just have to deal with that. The 4th is the only close one.
On a comical note, this post is kinda brilliant:

Nope. You can't alter the timing. You just have to put on your Nikes and hustle.
For the third set of tower, the timing is tight but you should still have enough time to reach your towers.
For the fourth set of tower, the timing is REALLY tight and depending on where the Ballistic Missiles land, you might not always be able to reach the towers in time. There's a bit of RNG involved here.
Now, the third and fourth towers can be done with only three people activating them, so it gives you some flexibility as to who has to trigger which towers. People can cover for each other if Ballistic Missiles put people too far away from their assigned tower.
For example, let's supposed each of the 8 raid member is labeled A-H
Tower Set 1: ABCD - 3 Dread, 1 Mines (Late Trigger)
Tower Set 2: EFGH - 2 Dread, 1 AoE, 1 AoE (Late Trigger)
Tower Set 3: ABC - 2 Mines, 1 AoE
Tower Set 4: EFG - 2 Dread, 1 AoE
As you can see, D and H aren't assigned towers in Set 3 or 4. These two players can fill in for E/F/G if any of those players are stuck in a Ballistic Missile on the opposite side of their assigned tower. For example, if E needs to get to the Dread tower but is stunned by Ballistic far away from the Dread, he can call out for D or H to take the tower for him.
Basically, you need to make yourselves flexible for the 4th tower set. Remember, you have 5 people for 3 tower triggers. Use this to compensate for the reduced time you have to trigger the towers. If you don't, you leave yourself vulnerable to bad RNG.
Also, your healers should get in the habit of pre-shielding people assigned to towers for the 3rd and 4th set, since they can get Allagan Field before they have to go in their towers.

Any SCH advice from T8 savage vets regarding fairy buffs and MP management?
I've been popping fey cov. on the 5+ set mines and illumination during heavy healing periods like dread. Whispering used for every forced explosion. I seem to run out of MP quite often due to all the adlo. spam on fielded targets but I'm guessing this is pretty normal. I get ballad, use eithers, use aetherflow on CD (NRG drain or lustrate used if I have charges remaining), and run a decent amount of piety on my build. I'm not running into issues outside of 2+ consecutive stacks on Avatar but just thought I'd ask anyways. A question I've been debating: is using leech worth it? Some groups do it, some groups don't.
I'd like advice on windows for DPS since I can't seem to find any good ones besides the 4th > 5th tower transition where there is a lot of downtime and on tower sets w/o a dread.
Also, are there periods where you're forced to have 2 healers potentially moving at the same time or have most of you separated it due to the danger?
Disagree about the RNG - as long as your ballistic strat doesn't result in the tower takers into the corner (therefore possibly the maximum distance from a tower), you should always be able to make your tower (with sprint). It would be risky to take a tower 3/4 of the area away without sprint.
wewps, didn't follow the conversation chain properly there.
