how many needed to take down a lowbie raid boss?

so, basically my topic is my question, I saw a level 20 raid boss (a giant zombie with skele minions) and was wondering how many it would typically take at my level to take down one like him. im level 22 as of now.

A party, give or take a few.

Get a few nukers, get a buffer, get a tank with hate, and leave the melees and archers at home.

I remember when those Raid Bosses were first introduced. I had a Full Party and we got wiped after the first hit.

I suppose they changed it.

3 mages with heal pots and a someone to buff you empower 3.

who said leave the daggers out of the raid????????

shame on you.

a dagger running in circles with the boss on his tail is a far better way to kill a boss than ugin 3 nukers and heal pots :p

A level 20-25 boss can usually be tanked by anyone with medium heal pots. While a tank makes it easier, I wouldn't call off the raid if you couldn't find one.
With full prophet buffs my lvl24 dagger rogue can solo lvl20 raid bosses. I didn't try higher. I usually duo or trio bosses with a couple of friends (Our chars is rogue, scout, raider, and dwarf) and we do the 20-30 ones with ease. Again with full high level prophet buffs though.

Remember to splurge for some greater swift attack potions. They really make a difference. Also make sure to have enough soulshots. One boss typically takes 500-1k.

Also, bosses without minions are *much* tougher. Me and my friend can easily do a lvl30 group boss, but can hardly beat a lvl25 solo boss' regeneration.

this is usually overcome by taking real damage dealers into the raid. ones usually that can nuke.

wow, I have only seen Raids take down with the min. of two full parties.

Most of my groups from 20 onwards were 75% nukers with at least one tank and one healer.

Once I got to 30/40, I was more adventurous and took on mobs up to 10 levels higher with 2 groups - one of nothing but nukers and a healer, the other with 50% nukers. The more nukers the better imo.

Actually mages can tank the group raids up to level 40 or so using greater heal pots, just need to kite/sleep the minions.

Three nukers with empower 3 plus any random party members can take out level 20-40 raids fairly easy. For single raids you want a tank type class with you.

I once did three mid 30s raids in a party that had 3 nukers, 2 dd and 4 healers. o.0


Though if you want to try raiding with small groups you have to hurry, as C5 will make the raids harder to kill.

/agree

on lower lvl bosses melee can actually do some damage
on lvl 20 bosses 1 archer or dagger = 2 mages
at higher lvls its more like 1 archer = 10 mages

It's all about the haste2+focus+dw on daggers. A level 20 scout easily takes aggro from my 24 raider with claymore.

My clan loves to put togeather low level raids with alts. This is what we use.

I am lvl 22, and no one is above lvl 25.

We have an out of party SE lvl 65 and she buffs everyone.

The party consists of thus.

4 lvl 20-23 Rouges and 1 lvl 24 LE Scout, One lvl 25 Orc Monk.

No one has heals because we just beat on it, lol...with the high VR3 there is no need for heals. Sometimes I switch between my dagger and my Bow.

If you do not have an out of party high lvl buffer this is what your group will need, because I have done them like this too. You can definately do it with a 9 man party.

First you will need some sort of healer. Even a nuker can spam the battle heal if that is all they do, but that is a good waste of a good DD. So this is the group.

1.) Healer/Buffer (at lvl 20ish they are both)
2.) Mage DD
3.) Mage DD
4.) Tank w/ hate skill learned
5.) Dagger/bow
6.) Melee DD
7.) Melee DD
8.) Another Mage DD or Melee DD (choose depending on RB)
9.) Secondary Healer/buffer

With this party you will take down ANY RB under lvl 35 if you are within level range. You really don't want the RB to be any less than green to anyone, or anymore than white to anyone.

This is a great and fun way to lvl alts. :) Or even a lowbie main.

With few exceptions all bosses under lvl 55 can be done with one party, with all party members max 3 lvls higher then the boss (to get a drop ;) ).
One boss u cant do with one party is crazy mechanical golem (lvl 43 Ivory Tower), acctually I kill it once with one party but everybody was lvl 50 or lvl 51, so no drops.
