WotLK - Trial of the Champion - (ToC)

[Klesh]

Eadric's hammer.

I'm confused by puppy's post. While I've not drawn Eadric in a week on heroic, as I recall its a two part effect. The first is Eadric marks the intended target with a debuff. This is then followed up with the hammer hit. If you cleanse the debuffed toon before he gets the hammer off it is automatically reflected on to him. I know I got the achievement for killing him with his own hammer and all I was doing was cleansing with my paladin.

Am I missing something?

If you cleanse the debuff, you fetch the hammer. You'll get a new hotkey bar and have to hit "1" to throw it back at him.

And if you kill him with his hammer you get an achievement! I have only seen him get one hammer out in the time it takes to burn him, so meh.

Oh, the lovely Heroic Trial of the Champion... one of the more difficult 5 man WOTLK heroics to heal.

[Greythan]

lol, I just realized how I didn't know about the 1 button, which I'm sure you can see coming...

Its part of my dps spam.

However, I changed it so I don't hit "1" anymore. Glad I posted here so I'll know to do so on this boss.

Ya, I like the click to move/interact option. I zone in, equip my lances, and click on the horses for each toon and they run over and mount =)

Also, today I got the bug where the champs had the shields on. So, I mounted up and proceed to give them the beat down. Was easier than on foot. Although, I only had rogue, mage and warrior champs. Obviously I died after the transition, still haven't been able to survive it.

I don't ever try and dps in the transition. just sit on the 2 champs and get the 3rd to 10% or so, then run to the doorway, turn and burn the last champ and right as you dismount, run for the door. then just zone back in and setup easy.
Sometimes i'll still lose a guy running for the door but I often make it out with 5 alive. I try to fight all the champs at the center of the ring so when they die, i have plenty of time to get out because it's a long walk for them to the next horse, and also a long walk to the entrance to kill me when i'm zoning out.

I messed around with a 5 man rogue team since you can actually keep melee in range with the interact button now. It was pretty cool. Only thing funny was if after the mob died, I hit interact and they would target different mobs and run off in crazy directions lol. I"m sure I can fix that with a focus macro though but it was funny to see them scatter across the starter zone.

So I didnt know this, but read it elsewhere. The radiance spell can be avoided by turning away from the mob. So you dont get blinded and the 6k damage component. Not sure if its worth the effort, just thought I would throw it out there.

edit: maybe just broadcast the turn key when you see it being cast and then using your /face macros to turn your dps back to facing target.

[Greythan]

Yeah, I "avoid" Eadric's AE with just may tank to keep his aggro steady.

To be honest, that fight for my team is pretty much tank n spank as long as I cleanse every hammer. Its straightforward enough that I haven't taken the time to work out trying to spin my guys away to avoid his AE.

Ok this is lame after much retardedness on my part I finally figured out how to make IS use two keymaps. However I have yet to get the faction champions down. They seem to last forever! I tried using the macros posted earlier so I could use the /clickVehiclebutton blah blah with an assist line for faster targetting, but the game wouldnt let me do it. It just kept saying, "you cant do that right now" Is this a limitation of IS?

Doubt it: sounds to me like you are still spamming your normal dps buttons which obviously can not fire because you are on a vehicle.
