Did you ever notice how once you have content on farm, you often regress a little bit and start sucking at it again for a little bit?
Is it the new recruits? The alts? Is it that you forgot to shield block at a critical moment? Did people forget to turn on the boss mod? Maybe we're all to cheap to flask now that we've got it on farm...
It's probably all of the above. See you've got the strategy cold; but all the prep stuff you were doing has gone out the window in...
Well, Day One of tempest keep -- we drop lootreaver on the 3rd attempt. We had some problems learning the trash, but after a few pulls it got a lot easier. You can read about the mobs all you want, but until you see the pulls and the mobs abilities, you really can't get in the right mental mindset.
