Mack

What @Baldur said, @Alice. IC every precaution will be taken to protect the low-level players, especially since the KoB and Mack are the Raid Leaders for this Boss and Mack is cautious, as a Raid Leader, by nature. High level and low level players will be in mixed groups, allowing the High Levels to act as a break and a shield for the lower levels. So, even a Level 1 should be safe. However, as Baldur points out, sometimes RNG strikes.

That was a big part of what happened with Asterios the last time we ran a Monthly Boss. The bulls rolled insanely well, and the players insanely poorly.

Appreciate the info, I'd be more willing to participate if I had some armor for mitigation, but as of now, I have no gear for sustainability and would have to rely on the potions alone. Assuming this boss uses the occasional AoE/splash damage move, there's not many options that I'd have.

You could ask for such things in the Christmas Thread... I could probably get them crafted in time.
