    Random Xarcabard Question

    Is there any reason to kill all of the Dragons before doing Ying/Yang?

    I ask this because typically we just pull all of those first, then Ying/Yang, then DL.

    I was considering leaving a dragon or two up to use for TP building prior to DL, but wasn't sure if they did anything bizarre like auto-link with Ying/Yang or something like that. Obviously if they did that would necessitate killing them first.

    They don't auto-link to Y&Y, we've left a couple up every once in a while and they never added.

    We just kill most/all of them because they can drop 100's.

    They can drop a 100 coin, and they're easy to kill. That's why my old LS killed them all.

    We normally just kill a path up and leave the others alive, to save time. Would rather kill mobs that drop AF2 than 100s. They don't do anything special, just make sure that you don't get so happy in your post-DL bliss that you autorun into one on the way back down, which I've certainly never done.

    no reason to clear all, can clear a path, do YnY and then use one or two to TP on if you want.

    We kill them all.. just because that's what we've always done.

    Besides... they are squishy and can do amusing things with their stomp moves.

    I always tell my LS I need the necro for upgrade, and they believe me every Xarcabard. Free money. <_< I guess that's a perk of being one of the leaders. Is that bad?

    it's bad, but it's worse that the other members are too stupid to notice.

    Do kill all of the Dwagons on your Ying/Yang kiting path though (if you kite).

    Not that we ever forgot that one in the north. :-"

    Quick question inregards to xarca, I know if you're trying to DoT solo the RDM NM he'll just cure himself. Does this apply to the PLD & WHM aswell? They will also cure any demon dying on their platform right? Didn't wanna make another thread.
