In happy we trust

Looking at the link Josh posted ages ago, I'd like to try this tonight:

1st digititis, we do as planned. Assign B to one healer, C to other, and STICK WITH IT.

for 2nd digititis after hand splits, rather than tank going to C and dps go to B, the healers move to them. So if Healnu is always the one taking the tank debuff, he goes to us (his job to look at our status and know who to go to) Josh and I need to make sure we are always in same spot (that's our job) so Healnu can find us fast. The dps who gets debuff should step out to a spot (B probably if that's possible, but I foresee a lot of traffic there at this phase)

Perhaps we can even back B up a bit. Perhaps that could help? IDK, but i think Healnu coming to the tanks to get swap vs. tanks running to C is something to consider. It puts the responsibility solely on the healers rather than the healers AND the tanks.

For 2nd digititis, I have been pointing my hand towards A while Josh pointed towards D (unmarked). Instead, I'm going to point mine towards C. This way, Healnu can keep the same positioning as he would for the the first. If i get the debuff, he runs to me at C and we swap, he stays at C and I move to A. If Josh has the debuff, he runs to Josh and I'll move to A (which will just turn my hand) and Healnu is clear to hang out at C.

Wait.. so just to be clear…. 2nd digititis, dps moves to B or behind B. Or are they staying put? This is not a shot on the healers, but I don't think they're comfortable enough to find the dps with the debuff in the limited time there is to snag it. Different case with the tanks though. You guys are obviously in a much more visible state.

The current plan is that the dps and Hannah meat at B, yeah? That's fine, that can stay that way. My only thought on this is that Ash and Kahlan (at least) will be hanging around here dpsing one of the hands, so it may be close. Another spot may be necessary for whichever dps gets the debuff and Hannah.

My thought is more about Healnu's swap. According to the link Josh posted, the writer states the healers go grab the debuff, and I like this for us. I'm going to be at C and Josh will be at D; this way, Healnu doesn't have to cut through B to get to us, and we don't have to move our adds. Healnu swaps w/ me or Josh, and goes directly to C.

Also, looking at the future digititises (digititi?), an undebuffed dps is going to need to get a tank debuff, so me and Josh staying stationary for these would make that stage easier as well. Might be good to set up position that doesn't have to change, and can become routine.

Yeah Solarus I see what u mean. On the 2nd one it would be easier most likely for the healer to come to us. For the swap that way we don't have to turn are hands and if we do were turning them towards eachother or us and not fhe party. It's gunna take awhile to get everyone comfortable looking for rebuffs and moving. So the less ppl we have moving and deciding where to go the less issue we will have in the long run.

That being said Solarus. Healnu should be grabbing the dps buff and Hannah should take the tank buff. This will allow healnu to solo heal this section and allow Hannah to just dps.

Ok okay that can work it'll probably take a few tries to get it down but I see where you are going with this. So if I'm understanding this correctly, you'll want me on C then B for the rest and Healnu needs to either go to C or D depending on who has the tank debug. Want me to just before they split to cast my ET rotation then dps the unmarked hand?

Yeah essentially we need u to help dps during that split. So for every digititus u should be taking the tank rebuff regardless. That way any chance u can dps u won't have dps down. On the second digititus. U will just go to whatever tank is marked and healnu will switch with the marked dps at b. That way we don't need to swing are adds around. We can stay stationary and have u move to us and move out fast.
