theres an existing thread with extensive information on all the achievements already, might be 1 or 2 pages back though.

"Eldor Nadox"
1. I placed the Shaman by the boss.
2. I ran the other four down the stairs and far away from him.
3. I pulled the boss with the pally shield and ran to the other 4.
4. After he was well by the Shaman I popped the Earth Elemental to tank the Guardians.
5. Shaman was able to hold them all until I could get the boss down. Again, using all buffs, food and Heorism.

Once I tried it this way I think I got him on the first try. These two were some of the harder ones for sure. The Oculus ones took some time to learn also, but now I think Oculus is fairly easy believe it or not.

Hope that helps.

Does this work currently (3.2 patch)? I heard you can't pull him out of his room, or he wipes the group. If it still does work, where exactly do you pull him to? (room before him with the shallow pool, or at the bottom of the stairs after the pool?)

Yes, it does work after 3.2 I made an image for you to see where I placed the boss and the Shaman with his Earth Elemental. The boss needs to be pretty far from the Guardians in order to NOT be immune so I am sure it's ok to pull him into another room.

Let me know if you need any other tips.

Thanks.

Thanks. That worked perfectly.

Duh.. whoever said it - thanks for reminding me that Druids can tank. My Druid (Boomkin) has a pretty good epic feral set I've collected - I should be able to do a bunch of these achievements now!

That was me. I forgot too, but as I kept running the new ToC heroic instance I ended up getting a set for my Druid so I tried the dual spec. Then when trying to do that achievement I remembered he had the set. Definitely makes it a lot easier this way.

Good luck getting it done. If you need any help with placement or other achievements let me know. I almost done with the second team of 5 for Glory of the Hero. It went much quicker this time lol.

I need some advice on how to do Split Personality. I have tried hexing the adds, but obviously that breaks when they take damage from the AE. I can't seem to keep up with healing my group and AEing them at the same time. I drop magma totems, then Chain Heal, but they do too much damage, especially with the time stop + blizzard and 2x polymorph. I have frost and fire resist totems up. I usually get the adds to about 1/2 health before I wipe.

I can see you are using prot-paladin, remember that avenger's shield silences all if they are close to eachother.

I had not thought of that, but I'm not sure how much it will help. The silence only lasts a few seconds and the cooldown is a while. If they had different names, I could make macros to hex and/or Wind Shear them, but since they have the same name, I have to individually target on each window if I want to hex / poly them separately.

May be a long-shot but if you make a macro;

/target *add*
/target *add*

Wont that target the a different add then the closest one?

This is how I was able to get it.

1. If you dps her fast enough she will not throw you around and you can skip the first split.
2. Run into the room and aggro her, then run out so it resets. Then run your guys into place and be ready for her when she respawns. This gives you a lot more damage time to make sure you are able to dps through the first wave.
3. When she does split slow it down here. Target one, do some damage, target another one, do some damage and repeat until they are all really low. Save your aoe attacks for when you want to nuke them all at the end so they all die at the same time.
4. When she comes back she will have very little health. Put all your dots on her because she will throw you around at this point. She will die as she is throwing you around so you only need to kill the splits one time.

In summary, aggro her and run in to reset, then nuke her to get through the first split, then slow it down and kill the adds slowly to make sure they all get really low health and then aoe blast them all. When she comes back apply dots and hit her with your instants as you are being thrown around she will die before splitting again.
