Question about Thaddius

[Cyndaen]

Running 4 melee when we engaged Thaddius was a bit of a smack in the face for the first couple attempts. There is very little room for error when there are 5 melee on Thaddius that generally need to stay stationary. Our Druid single boxer jumped first and picked up Thaddius so I would have time to jump all 4 of my people across the gap, then I spread them out around Thaddius in a very "trial and error" fashion. There is barely (and I mean barely) enough room for 5 people around him without destroying someone. I run 3 toons on my second monitor but I use a Buff/Debuff mod that I can scale abnormally large. At a glance I'm able to see who has what charge and was still able to stack Polarities with moderate efficiency. At any rate, I found this encounter every bit as challenging as 4 horsemen, and we have yet to get that one down.

I've read some where that if you drink a swiftness potion you can just run off the mini boss platform and make it on to thadius's platform, instead of having to jump. I dunno I haven't tried it yet though

A hunter told me that aspect of the pack (think it's this one, well, the one that makes everyone run faster...) on there's no need to jump.
Anyone can confirm this?

Thanks

Sounds interesting, levitate or slowfall works nicely too.

Thaddius is ridiculous...
I'll tell you why and how the lousiest performance ever just turns into a down at first try:

Yesterday I cleared Naxx10, I 6 boxed most of it, 5 boxed a little bit and 4 boxed from Grob till the end. It was a really successful run.

I was 5 boxing Thaddius, I had 4 toons on one group and another one on another. The one alone was testing the aspect of the pack thing. It failed miserably and fell down. The other four had levitate, it worked wonders. But... I lost concentration trying to bring the priest up to the field and the toons just explosed and 3 died. The lowest of my dpsers, the druid was the only one that survived. One person was the first time doing Thaddius so we just decided to keep going with no stress. I brought my priest up again, levitate, landed and continued dpsing too. I always run naxx with two healers, one of our healers just fell down on the aspect of the pack thingie and since he didn't know how to return, just stood there the whole fight.

So we were 2 tanks (yay!), one healer and 4 dpsers. As I said we decided to calmly keep going so one of our dpsers just learn the fight. At around 66% I started wondering if I should just anhk with my shaman (highest dpser of my group) and after a bit of hesitation, well.... why not... So both my dpsers weren't switching so they never had the buff. I ankhed, got some mana back and.... incredibly we downed it with a bit over 2min left for enrage.... If there were doubts about the need for the buff, well, they no longer exist since 3 out of the five dpsers didn't have it and one of them even started really late.

I t was a pretty funny naxx run with a lot of miscellaneous fun events .

Yep, Aspect of the Pack / Cheetah allows you to just run off the platform without jumping.

Yep, Aspect of the Pack / Cheetah allows you to just run off the platform without jumping.

Have you actually done it?

I ask because in the post immediately above yours, it seems it just didn't work when tried.

At least in /follow it was 100% fail

Yes i have and the other hunter in my guild used to run straight off. I usually jump anyway to make certain. You have to make sure you are lined up straight, and at the shortest gap.

Woot! Fun *and* success in the same run? I like.

Glad you are doing well Deekhay
