Jousting and You: The unbelievably simple guide

[Simulacra]

this is on heroic? I tried heroic and although I was able to get through the first couple of waves with your great method I kept losing my target on my main for some reason so I couldn't remember which one I was supposed to be bashing as they were all intermingled with my team, the mobs were definitely going down well - guess I'll have to check keybinds and go farm some gold for repairs lol - thanks for the tips!

ok turned out to be a /cleartarget in my assist - I got through the 3 waves easily this time but the champions just wore me down, I only managed to kill 2

I noticed when doing the champions that they all ran over to my team even though I was the only one shield breaking and when they got to them there was an error message on my team screens like: cannot see target
when I was trying to melee I sometimes seemed to be the only one doing any damage.

tried on normal as well - no difference. 250g on repairs

I can see how this should be very easy because when the team did connect they went down pretty quick.
be great if someone made a vid of this because I'm obviously doing something very wrong

If your mount is getting low on hp don't wait to be dismounted. Ride over to a new mount and get it. If you get dismounted remember that this will also clear your toons focus'.

Yes this is on heroic. I really don't know why you aren't connecting. If they are literally backed right into the wall, there should be nowhere to face but forward, and the mobs should be in their field of vision. try tapping your interact with target key real fast for a bit of facing maybe?

Prob im having is that the champions charge my group.....and its basicly over. 1 at a time they back up and charge demolishing one of my guys at a time. By the time they wipe my 4 guys out i have 1 of the bosses at half health........im doing something wrong but cant understand what.

I had problems the with the few attempts made, Downloaded macaroon which is a new addon for me. Still had problems however I am assuming its because there is somthing wrong with my macaroon setup. For some reason it seems to work fine outside on the dummies, but when i get in the arena it stops working? Really frustrating have to tab spam my targets, just for a fail after 5 mins. I WILL GET THIS TO WORK!

Tried this method and succes on the first try! Although I was too slow to swap weapons and pick up the 3 champions but doesn't matter as you don't have to do the mounted combat again if you've defeated them before.
Edit : just cleared normal mode. Gonna farm that for a bit before doing heroic but it's basically more of the same.

You need to be smashing 1,2, and 4 TOGETHER. This will keep your shields up on your toons, it will shield break when the mobs are at range, and melee when they are nearby. A single charge and a few hits shouldn't be enough to take out a character unless they aren't keeping their shields up, or maybe it was your main who was already low. In which case just jump on a new horse on your main. This will clear aggro and they will target another character. I've never had to change horses more than once during the fight on my main, and once again on another character. Just cleared it again on heroic using this smashing method.

Again, there is no trick here. You don't try to 'time' your button smashings or pick individual abilities. Just put your fingers on 1, 2, and 4 and non-stop press them all together.
