After some warmups in Nexus & Utgarde Keep I decided to give Oculus a try, since I was in the neighbourhood :p
Took me a bit over 2 houres, but this was my first time ever boxing on vehicles, so it was mostly macro-writing while doing the instance.
Paid off in the end though! 20 Achievements (5x Oculus, Heroic Oculus, Ruby void and Emerald Void) as well :D

Been struggling with Oculus with my guild. What strategy did you use with your 5 amber drakes? I know you kept him frozen pretty much the whole time, but any other tips? 1min46 seconds is amazing, grats!
Grats! Is this a world mutliboxing first?
I guess it is!
GRATZ thanks for sharing
The general idea to killing him with 5 amber drakes is:
1. Keep him frozen
- He is immune after 3 times (diminishing returns) where u have to wait till banish phase
- If he spawns adds during his short 'not-frozen' time before the first banish phase, it's prety much a wipe, because they'll kill 1/2 of your dragons
2. rotate with the beam / dps
- To get him down fast you need to get charges on him asap. To do this you start the fight channeling with 2 alts, dpsing wigh 3. When the 2 channelers have ~5-10 stacks you start channeling the 3 others, then unleash the first 2
---> your other 3 will have 10 stacks each now, channel first 2 again, unleash 3. And just keep repeating this.
The tactic is prety simple, but what makes it hard is that it has to be 'perfect'. E.G. I wiped a few times pressing my time stop roundrobin on a global cooldown, forcing you to press it again, and of course your rotation gets messed up
Wow, grats I didnt think we would ever see this!
Aye, the bronze drake method is probably the best way to multibox Oc. I was loving it when I finally got down the macro's for it right. :> (I was 4+1 tho, quad-boxing)
Post your macros for this I want to compare!
I haven't actually used any macro's for the final encounter.
I had my normal /assist focus macro to get them to target the boss, and then i switched the 1 and 3 bindings on half my team around, and put 2 as round robin, (1 & 3 is the beam / the normal attack)
Wow dude ... I've never seen such an ugly interface in my entire life. :D
But congratulations on the kill anyway! ;)
