With 2.4 fast approaching, <The Drunk Tanks> will be hosting an Imperial +10 datacron run on Sunday, September 29 from 3:00 - 5:00 PM EDT. For +10 stats, we will have people in place to open the door, operate the bridge and pull you up to the datacron. All you need to bring is yourself! You must be level 45 to obtain this datacron. For +10 Endurance, you need to be able to get to Makeb and the right location; it will help if you look at this guide. We also plan to have pullers there. We will be broadcasting on Fleet and on Makeb, so when the time comes just ask for an invite and we'll get you through. Come by and meet the members of <The Drunk Tanks>! If we can find corresponding interest on the Republic side, we'd like to coordinate with others and make this a server wide event. Stay tuned for more details. For more information about <The Drunk Tanks>, please feel free to check out our Shadowlands forum recruiting thread and our Website: Hope to see you on Sunday the 29th!

Have you found anyone who can make it? I haven't seen any posted on GTN recently, but I am unofficially trying to help Skillx keep the crafting thread updated for the server, so any info you have can help. As a related question, is it for your sorcerer? If so, my current understanding is that you're better off using your mats on the relics that Keiki referenced. Of course, I could be wrong and if you have any information documenting that Ephemeral Mending is better than either Boundless Ages or Serendipitous Assault for a healing sorc, I'd be glad to read it. If not, please disregard and best of luck.

Players to contact include Cephas and Skylock on Republic side.

According to Bioware, no, that was supposedly fixed awhile ago. However, there are companion-related, healing-related and tab/auto-targetting related things that supposedly can still get you flagged. The actions of that stealther are supposedly harassment as well.

<The Drunk Tanks> are still accepting any active players to join our operations and pvp teams! With over 130 active unique accounts, five operations groups, a ranked pvp team, and an average of 25 players online during prime time, we can help you get where you want to go.

The troll is strong in this one.

<The Drunk Tanks> are looking for a reliable tank, either sin or jugg would be fine. Please check your private messages.

Drew, please check your pms. If you didn't get one, feel free to contact me in game. Also, updated recruiting needs: Operations (5 groups): tanks, sniper, merc dps, operative healer (gear reqs from 66+ to full 72s augmented) Ranked pvp - Marauder; Sniper

Agree with Rambeezy. All of the operations in this game have been linear to this point; progression was meant to be linear to this point. It is clear that even those involved understand this because the justifications for non-linear progression are ridiculous and self-serving - "only did it one time", "we didn't get much gear, plus it's (Bad stat) heavy"; "we're not counting our out of order kills until we do them again". They know that doing things out of order is cheesy, yet they still celebrate it. A true shame, the community gets a punishing fight that truly tests groups, and it gets cheesed. Don't expect things to change in this thread - same people involved in maintaining it, same guild that wrecked the last progression thread, and the cherry on top is that they are affiliated with the "mathematically impossible" crowd. Can't deny the connection - the very same group of people that claimed the fight was too hard skipped it to get gear and go back to do the too hard fight? Fruit of the poisonous tree. Expect the community to fix this for good once NiM S&V comes out.

heh, Pot5 . . .

TDT is still recruiting for: a. operations - tanks, snipers, operative healer, mercs, melee dps as well b. Ranked PvP team - contact Trinity in game for more info A wide variety of raid times and days with our five operations teams are available for your convenience. Also, a new event for the community: Imperial Server Block Party hosted by The Drunk Tanks

The Drunk Tanks support Getz' efforts to help rebuild the pvp community in the wake of transfers, and some of its members have been participating in ranked matches, with the hope of forming a ranked team. We join the rest of the Shadowlands community in wishing the best to those who transferred to pvp elsewhere, and strongly encourage those who have left not to pollute our forums with destructive, low class, low character trolling.

The Drunk Tanks downed Writhing Horror in Nightmare TFB on 6/20/13 in a murder/suicide: top left corner of screen has green achievement text http://i1302.photobucket.com/albums/ag133/MefDT/Screenshot_2013-06-20_19_14_45_226178_zpsdb940adf.jpg achievement page http://i1302.photobucket.com/albums/ag133/MefDT/Screenshot_2013-06-20_20_32_03_621479_zpse1ebc60d.jpg

Still have main openings in our ops groups for a sniper, operative healer, merc healer, a tank, merc, even a marauder. Backup spots also available for those who want to raid but can't commit to a regular group. We now regularly do 16 person story mode runs on Wednesday nights. Hit up Duskblade or Devyn if you are interested. Check the front page of our website at thedrunktanks.enjin.com for more info.

I'm pretty sure removing posts in this thread is "mathematically impossible". However, I am confident that at least one out there can delete the contents of their posts, and I'm even going to suggest that it won't require a nerf of the posting enrage timer.

/bump for 2.2. We currently have five operations groups going with a variety of openings. Our teams could use a well-geared sniper and operative healer for Nightmare TFB. We also have main and backup spots for tanks, melee dps, ranged dps, and healers. If you are new to the operations scene, we are happy to offer training and gearing up runs as well. After transfers go through, we will also be doing our best to resuscitate/rebuild Shadowlands PvP, working with other guilds in the process.

I'm not an expert on assassin/shadow tanks, so could you let me know which 3 cooldowns mitigate The End casts? I'm curious because our assassin tank was getting one shot for 41.6k+ - would have survived if our sorc healer had timed a bubble properly; tank said he had tried his various cooldowns. These cooldowns seem to be geared to improving the chance the boss will miss, and not mitigate a straight percentage of damage as is the case with some jugg and pt cooldowns. Could it be bad RNG?

The Drunk Tanks completed a full 8 person clear of Story Mode Scum & Villainy, all boss kills on Saturday, April 13. I forgot to take screenshots of two of the boss kills but will ask if anyone else in guild did. Last boss fell at 9:54 pm PST.
