Boarding Party First Try

Dex, Aydenn and I did Boarding Party last night, with Dex's new companion, Big Fuzzy, tanking for us as we didn't have any guildies online who were big tanks. It was a long, arduous trial. We took it pretty slow and did remarkably well. We were kinda shocked, I think!

The first boss went down not too badly, and Aydenn went AFK for a minute before we looted. Dex and I were mucking about, and he accidentally looted the boss and a beautiful orange chest piece came up, all tricked out with Aim for Aydenn. We shouted into our mics, "COME  BACK!" but he didn't come back from AFK before the timer counted down, so Dex ended up getting a sweet piece of gear that he cannot use. <sigh> It was a heartbreaker for Aydenn, that's for sure. But it was an accident, so it's all good.

Aydenn showed us how much he deserved that loot too, when he took down this big-ass robot boss all by himself. Dex and I were taking naps on the floor, while Aydenn danced around the boss and kicked his metallic butt. Rock on, Mazerbeam!!

But in the end, the last fight, there were three bosses at once, and we just couldn't do it. We tried all sorts of strategies and plots and plans and techniques. We tried extra stims and more medpacs and buffs and crossing our toes while whistling "I Will Survive". No go.
I guess it was just that we were underpowered, and also I forgot to mention that I re-spec'd Spiral for DPS. (woot!!) So she was trying to be healer, and the two boys were DPS-ing like mad, and Big Fuzzy tanking, but we just couldn't kill everyone. Finally Dex gave a shout-out and a nice lvl 50 healer named Medicaid came to our rescue. Then the fight was over so quick! We were all shaking our heads.

So a good run with some great guildies and a few choice pieces of loot for all. Until next time!
