    Dxun – Breach CI-004: Lights Out – HM – Defeated!

     

    According to StarParse, it took us 17 tries to clear the Lights Out encounter. That doesn’t seem so bad, honestly. We still pugged a DPS, but Yothann stepped in as a healer for us and that worked perfectly, especially because he now has the HM achievement before the SM!

     

    Also, our clear of Red on the way to Lights Out was a much cleaner kill than our initial kill was last week. Wouldn’t it be cool if we managed to clear the Nature of Progress HM before NiM gets released!

    We’re still pugging one or two spots a week (Join Now!), but we clear Hardmode content anyway! Our first legitimate “progression” kill in SWTOR: Onslaught.

     

    Progression kill … now that’s a phrase I’ve not heard in a long time … a long time.

     

    Furthermore, not only had no one present cleared Hardmode Red, we didn’t have a full grasp of the fight’s mechanics when we won. Not sure if that’s a credit to our brute force methods, or a critique of the fight design. Either way, it was a lot of fun to have Bravo tossing heals at us again, even if it was a limited engagement.

     

    I think the video linked above is the only one on YouTube that explains the fight well. Other videos are just like archival records of teams’ kills, or they are instructional but not very interesting or entertaining. I was going for both. I hope it gets some views /crossedfingers.

    We completed our first clear of new operations content! Dxun, The Nature of Progress, is an interesting Jurassic Park style of raid. We went in sight-unseen, except for our trusty guide Holtar, who himself had only cleared the place one time.

     

    The attached video is about 50% victory, and 50% lol-fail, so please disregard it if you’re here looking for tips and strategies. Furthermore, it’s been a while since I recorded raid kills … so … some things I forgot:

     

    – to make sure the video records my mic. When you hear people laugh randomly, it’s because my hilarious comments weren’t captured; and,

     

    – to even record the final two kills.

     

    I produced the video primarily for the team to enjoy and get a laugh from. I hope you all do!
