This thread is for discussion about the upcoming Alexander fight and coordinating static group #1. Even though we were founded on the principle of not leaving anyone behind, unfortunately some endgame content with its lockout systems require a static group in order to be successful. To be fair, we are accepting people on a first-come, first serve basis and will give priority to people who show up on time. I don't yet know what the best night to do raids will be but it is one of the things we can discuss below.
Right now the people who have expressed interest are:
Sparkle Motion: any job Tifareth Darkcaller: SCH Ryu Dragneel: MAC Saldirael Hyrstyrwyn: SMN Kirito: DRG Guzzed Up: MNK Rin: BLM Berah: PLD or WHM
My apologies if I missed anyone. If I did or if you would like to add your name to the list, please post below. Also, I'm guessing that the ideal raid set up will be something like: PLD + WAR/DRK, AST + SCH/WHM, 2 different melee classes, 1 caster, and 1 BRD/MAC. We'll have to see what things look like when 3.0 releases but try to be flexible if 2 or more of you want to play the same job. Please work it out with one another. Thanks! :)
We were talking about it tonight and Tifa and I feel that Saturday evening would work the best for us (probably around 6 or 7 pm EST) and playing for a couple of hours. If another day works better for everyone else, Tifa and I can bow out of this group and catch the next one. Please let me know how well this time would work for the rest of you. Thanks.
Hey guys. After really working with the tanking role. I will be tanking as either a pally or a DRK in 3.0. Pally if the DRK isn't what I expect it to be = ). The Saturday night run won't work for myself or Rin very well at the current moment, but if this changes before we start raiding then we will gladly join. On the contrary if the time does not work Rin and myself will be tanking a 2nd group most likely 1-2 days during the week (depending how long the run takes) most likely around 5-6pm central! Any questions on this please post or talk to me in game = )

Thanks for the update, Son (Ryu). I'm leaning towards playing WAR myself, so raid group #1 currently looks like:
Saturday 6pm EST Me: WAR Berah: PLD or WHM Tifa: SCH Sal: SMN Kirito: DRG Guzzed: MNK
I know both Argythe and Royal Saint expressed some interest also and they both play healer jobs. If one of them heals for our group then maybe Berah can tank? And we'll still need a BRD or MCN.
Group #2 looks like:
1-2 Weekdays 5-6 pm CST Son (Ryu): PLD or DRK Rin: Tank.
Please continue to post updates regarding raid groups here. Anyone is welcome to start their own group if these times or configurations don't work for them.
Since Kirito left our FC (I don't know why), there's room for another melee dps in static group #1. I've been enjoying DRG myself so I could do that if someone else wants to tank for our group.
Oh another option is to move static #1 to another time. If we do it during the week, we could maybe combine groups 1 and 2 and have a single full group. Please let me know what you think.
Any evening during the week will work for me and Rin as it stands right now. I know Rin is set on tanking, I will want to try out both DRK and MCH both to decide what I will truly enjoy end game wise so if we need to fill spots I can play either!
