Murmur Down!!

I should not be proud of the title of this post but sadly I am. Last night rocked. I was fortunate enough to score a completely competent party looking to run Shadow Labyrinth. Sweet! I need the first Kara key frag from there and Sonic Spear. I am lucky enough to have a nice spear that gives me a little higher RAP but Sonic Spear has better AGI and has a nice +hit. I think Sonic Spear is a very commonly sought hunter weapon and I am no exception. We had two people that were well versed in the instance, two that knew some (including myself. I had never been past the second-to-last boss, the orc lock) and one brand new. There was a well geared BM hunter in the group who seemed to employ a similar dart board selection method for some of his talents as the hunter the other night. This hunter had better selections than the first but didn't finish anything out. There were a couple 2/5's and a 1/3 I think. /shrug
Most of the pulls through the whole intstance went well. The other hunter was great that he let me practice chain trapping instead of just doing it himself. I'd give myself a 4 out of 5 score for my night's trapping, losing points because I did break one of my own traps and once forgot to drop my next trap. Easily fixed by freezing the mob right there at my feet, but by the time the trap takes effect, I'm at 30-40% health. I need one of those bubbles that all the clothies seem to have. Our first wipe came at the hands of the orc lock. The tank hadn't done this fight before and went down the southern hall after we got sucked in to the altar. This essentially took the boss right towards his AOE bomb/heal voidwalkers. We were tearing him up on DPS and took him to about 40% health before he teleported us the first time. Two rounds of misdirection really let us tear into the boss. We wiped right after the second teleport. The second attempt went a little bumpy but well enough that we downed him. The pulls leading up to Murmur are overly easy with 2 or 3 mob pulls and even a one mob pull. Murmur wiped us on the first attempt but we killed him on the second. I'm stoked any time I finish an instance with a PUG. I just wish the Sonic Spear had dropped. No one got anything useful except for key frags and rep from this run. Well that and experience in running the instance.
