So I noticed we often couldn’t decide on a single plan at the start of the event (atleast for PUGs). So we need to formulate a general plan. For example, at the start, if going for:

- one whole zerg: start at north east boss (Sparcus), then rotate clockwise
- split the zerg into two: start at the east and west bosses then clock wise
- split the zerg into three: take the eastern bosses first then the west. Or take 1-3-5 first, then 2-4-6.

We need to agree on something and push through it so we can get organized even as PUGs, even without TTS baby sitting our kitten.

Hi,

I’ve done the Blitz and got gold on 2 different overflows a total of 6 times in a row, 2 were silver and 4 were gold.
What we did was have 6 commanders flag up and stand close to the pen of the boss that that commander would take.
Then the commander let everyone know via chat how many more they needed at which boss. (Usually the commanders would aim for 10 people each)
Then we would start killing the bosses, all the time giving updates on which boss has how much hp. Around 10-5% the commander and its group would stop dps’ing until the rest caught up.
Once the last group arrived at 5% everyone went all out.
The only times we failed were for two reasons:
1. Boom Boom Baines is hard to keep at 5% because of the healing turret that spawns
2. Pyro is often ranged from the cliff above and when they stop dps’ing the boss de-aggros and recovers all its HP (instead someone needs to jump down and keep it engaged)

Hopefully we can get the word out so that more overflows can use this tactic and succeed. I personally found the difficulty then just right to be fun and the reward (since the update) good enough to keep me going.
