Not a bad night all told although being a 'half glass full' kinda guy there's always that feeling that it should have gone better. Having said that we more than proved ourselves capable of defeating both this boss without too much difficulty even without a lock to make the whirlwind stage easier. We had previously attempted Qon on Monday for the first time with Sosaru (Frosty's warlock) and come pretty close to getting a kill, the odd unfortunate death and the enrage timer being the only thing to stop us so we were confident of a quick kill and then on to Consorts. But things didn't go as planned and the first several attempts ended with wipes in the very first stage. It has to be said that this was a healing problem more than anything else, not so much in terms of throughput but rather in getting ppl to a reasonable level quickly enough. I admit that i did become somewhat despondent but then on our 8th pull of the night we managed to get through and on to harder second stage with the whirlwinds. Despite not having the advantage of a lock portal we actually handled it pretty well. Nina was able to pop a few feathers down and with the 5 seconds of freedom granted by my windwalk totem and franks 'chargie roar thing' we were able to get clear with relatively little difficulty. the remaining stages were pretty much a formality as long as we kept our heads (not something i'm particularly good at). I did start swearing profusely as we approached the kill due to a disconnect but the boss was on his last legs and I when i logged back on it was to be greeted by a newly minted loot table. Good job all.
