So, on a whim we made a small force (11 people) to give King Consierd a go. After having tried the fight a few times we figured we'd have another go at him to see if we can't best him this time. We gathered up and after some quick discussion on who does what and some giggles on randoms running too close to him getting nuked, we enganged him ourselves.

Two rangers and a sorc in reserve should it be needed was set to deal with adds at 50%, else people was to make Fried chicken of the feathered pest. With everyone now taking out their long time pent up frustrations of grinding and dying on the flying featherball it dropped fast. The first 25% is basic tank and spank, the next is a little different. Every 20 or so seconds he'll stun all in melee and target a random member charging that person.  If that person has the "Tear Flesh" debuff and takes damage or dies it will heal the Birdie about 1-2% After a few seconds Another AoE will follow, but it's of little danger unless you're very low level. To help the healers pot'ing up helps should you be caught in the AoE, he'll then return to the highest aggro target, the tank hopefully.

50% comes and the small vultures begin to spawn, this is of course the time when one of the rangers decide to disconnect and make a right mess of all our preperations, but the sorc takes up the slack and takes his place for the time he takes to reconnect, the small mess lets the boss regen a few % as the small elites have the same regen ability as the boss does. Just that it heals the main boss, not the adds. Nuke them down as they spawn and keep the dps up on the boss whenever possible.

At 25% it becomes simple again, the adds does not spawn anymore and the AoE stun (Crippling Wave) stops. He'll do an ability called "Rotate" which stuns the tanks and spins him, then a followup "Blindside Attack", it does do a fair bit of damage, but it's no problem to survive if the tank it pretty much topped off. Steel Wall also provide some protection, but don't worry if you don't have it up. Just cruise in the last % and enjoy your spoils.

For us the loot was:

Kings Staff

Not much lootwise, but was a quite decent fight :) Quite enjoyable actually.

And on a side note I hit 40 at stupid o'clock this morning.
