HToC Five Man Easy Mode for Jousting

[Johalak]

I can clear this on Heroic, but I would not say I have it on farm yet as there are usually several wipes. It is actually the jousting that gives me the most problems it seems. I started by having my guys against a wall, but found being closer to the middle better as it gives me more time to trample if one of them manages to start walking towards a mount.

My problem seems to be right after I get the trash guys down and and the 3 of them charge, they usually knock my main down to %50 in about a second. A few seconds after that, I'm already dismounted and trying to get to another mount while I keep attacking with my slaves. I find If I can manage to stay mounted on all my toons and dismount one of them first, it is no problem, but when my main (usually the case), or one of my slaves gets knocked off first, game over.

Last night after an unusal number of wipes just on this first phase, I tried another tactic. Instead of shield breaking when they went to range, I would charge x 5. I got all 3 of them down first try with this method. Had a little bit of trouble gathering up my guys after a charge, but usally spamming /follow would get them all together. I would joust with them when they are close again, and charge when they went to ranged again. I'm going to try it again tonight, see if it is more effective than just stacking up and jousting with them, and shield breaking when they go to ranged.

I don't have a link, Niley was streaming it live via xfire. He didn't seem to move much, he did backup some.
