My first 5 man group is 55 so I'm starting to get into BRD pretty heavy (as far as the seven) and have done a few DME tries (not the last boss yet), and I've got to say it's very challenging. That got me wondering if there are in dungeon bosses that anyone has found that they just can't get past?
Classic dungeons are pretty much all DPS checks. If you've been gearing via dungeons as you level and you're in decent gear you should be able to clear any dungeon with almost any composition.
Composition changes how efficiently you clear and what else your team is capable of aside from just farming dungeons.
I'd say the closest thing to undoable I ran into, was Princess of Maraudon, at appropriate level, with 4 warriors. That was an absolute shitshow.
I have that fight specifically in mind and its why I'm changing up from 4 warriors + 1 shaman to 3 warriors + 2 shaman.Quote:

The push back dust cloud or whatever, did way too much damage at 52, but at 58 I was able to ignore it, and I was able to kill her at 58ish well before fears became an issue due to cool downs.
princess with 5 ele shaman :DQuote:

Two healers might be enough to help you through it, but, consider that the biggest issue I faced because of the fears and push back, was threat. My warriors simply didn't have enough uptime on Princess to get enough of a threat lead on my priest. My priest would have to dump out the healing, and this in turn caused too much threat, and then the fat witch waddled over and punched my priest out :)Quote:

I found I needed 2 of them though while leveling either for healing per second or OOM or both depending on the fights.Quote:

I'm also noticing that since Im using down ranked heals now with two shaman casting that I getting extremely less heal aggro (its almost not noticeable now) than I was with just one healer casting a max rank heal.
That's just based on splitting the heals between 2 players, the rank has no effect on aggro, its the points of healing that give aggro (Not overhealing either)Quote:

Curious if deathwish/berserker making you immune to fear also means no threat wipe?Quote:

It took me from 52 (first time I got to her) to 56 before I was able to drop her with WWWWS.Quote:

I had to use Nature res totem / tremor to get the first kills with her. You just have to position your shaman in way that you can just /follow during dust cloud to get your warriors to run back. Either that or just not move. Its not too bad when you make sure your positioning is 100% spot on.
I'd just farm RoL in BRD til 56-58 before I'd ever attempt to get 4x ring from her again.
I’m farming DME right now and the only thing I’m consistently having issues with is hydraspawn. When he knocks the team in every direction they don’t land facing him. By the time I get then half way organized I’m pretty much dead.
going to try lbrs tonight but I know those big groups might be an issue.
What classes are you running?Quote:

I'm guessing you're using casters? If so, make an IWT hotkey that uses their wand, and then taps your move backwards key. So step one, would be assist/iwt step 2 step backwards.Quote:

(EDIT) This doesn't actually seem to work when they are already in wand range.
Thanks for the input. I'm still relatively new to multiboxing so I feel like I've barely scraped the surface of what I can do to make things easier.Quote:
