Raid Preparation
Before launching
| Check | Ready when… |
|---|---|
| Loadouts | Two damage options and survivability are equipped. |
| Roles | Every player has a mechanic and backup. |
| Comms | Short names for symbols, timers, and safe zones are agreed. |
| Checkpoints | The team knows the reset point after a wipe. |
| Loot | The desired encounter drops are identified. |
Encounter Practice
Run each mechanic without chasing damage first. Once the team can complete two clean loops, add the damage rotation and only then attempt a speedier clear. Most first-run wipes come from changing routes between attempts.
- Keep roles fixed across pulls.
- Call transitions before moving.
- Save heavy ammo for the planned damage window.
- Track revives and reset after a failed loop.
