Thanks for writing this up . Although I have run through all the instances solo boxing with different types of classes my main was a healer. This means that I barely knew what the instances looked like never mind what mobs to target first.
Target priority like you say is seriously important . The mobs that throw down totems wiped me so quick as they mind controlled my tank it was silly. I wiped on my first encounter with them.
Now though I burn them down as you advised so fast there’s no issue. Any advice on the prophets though that fear you. As the trash goes, to me they are the single most dangerous mob in here. Without them it would be easy.
My only tactic so far is to put my healer/dps at extreme range and go in tanking. That way only the tank gets feared which isn’t a problem so far. If they fear bomb my group it’s damn nasty. My set up btw is 4 shammys and a pally tank.
The first boss pugs can have problems with but was so laughably easy I really did laugh. Seriously this boss was a pushover. Went in threw down usual totems, tanked the boss, dpsed him a little then as soon as the adds appeared fire elementals then it was all over. Im not joking when I say this fight lasted no more than 20 seconds.
The only other mob besides the prophets that cause me a problem at first was the big elite birds. They do a chain lighning effect (oh the irony) and a push back which is annoying. So I now tank it sideways to my group with my back to a wall. The group doesn’t take damage and the push back only effects my tank.
My biggest problem as I stated above is the last boss. I wiped maybe 7 times to this guy. Ive beaten him countless times solo boxing so know the tactic. One of my problems I’m finding is to determine when hes going to do the AOE. With so much going on, arcane missiles, sheeps and his stupid spamming about trinkets I think im missing the start of his AOE so am late in running behind a pillar. As Im running behind the pillar though Im throwing down 4 grounding totems maybe half a second to a second before he missiles. The missiles usually fire through the pillar miss the totems and hit my group which is helping me wipe. Do the totems definitely soak his missile attack?
PS his sheeping is bloody annoying too.
Ive forgotten the addon so a reminder would be great. What addon is it that displays bosses attacks /abilities as they’re about to fire not for raids but for instances ? This would help me a lot.
