Wotlk - ICC - Pit of Saron (PoS) - Scourgelord Tyrannus

[universal]

with krick and ick i just stack the slaves and move them forward whenever they're standing in poison. when the chasing or arcane barrage starts i just collect them all and run in circles until it's finished and then just dps again. found him kinda easy that way with not having to switch toons.

with the endboss i had no problem with a dedicated healer but once i changed to my priest and played all 5 i had some problems with him, some bad luck with where the "frost damage thing gets planted" and so on. so in the end i just spread the slaves out, didn't care for the mark and just burned him down.

my paladin has around 4.9k gs and the slaves are at 4,5k. running with 3 ele shamans + holy priest + paladin.

ick was fun to figure out but iwt/fallow the leader it is easy. just running around in circles all day owning this guy, if he is marks tank for chase then zomg spam dps. and if u cleared trash near u got plenty of room to run around, I norm get as far away as possible pop 2 flash heals on each pally by time he reaches me. (beware u can reset him tho.)

but.. last boss bleh =l Scourgelord Tyrannus is harrrrd. my tank can take the dmg but dmg output is lacking with out solid healer to heal thru the burn.
anyone else doing it as a tank/rets team got a good strat?

Has to be our group compositions lol. Tyrannus I really blew through that guy 1 shotted him To me and my team Ick and Krick cause more problems just do to the movement. Hard for Boomkins to DPS while running around in circles and target is behind you. At least my healer can roll the hots during the chase scenes.

Pretty sure my next serious try will go much smoother. I totally get the Ick strategy it's just executing it properly and one misstep usually means a death. BUT I got them all down and that's the main thing!

1 pally tank 3 boomkins and 1 treekin Tyrannus was easy sauce.. Now the tunnel before him <.< no comment, lol...

Maybe I'm just lucky. Seen over 10 drop myself doing my farming thing- none drop when I was actually clearing the instances.

It's luck of the draw I guess. Got it on my very first kill in PoS once, and have gone for 5+hours without one drop. Never gone more than 5hrs though.

Like you said though most of us multiboxers have money to burn anyway I don't even farm anymore and the only heroics I loot anymore are ICC 5mans.

I had a crazy thing happen tonight, on the hill after ick and crick where the 4 groups of mobs spawn. I was working on the first group and I swear when I killed one of them in teh first group, the next 2 groups of mobs agro'd. It was impossible. Anyone seen this bug? I didn't do any crazy wide aoe or anything, just normal stuff, bear tank, pally dps, tree healer, and mage friend. The group way up the hill would agro and come running down along with the one just up the hill at the corner. My only guess is that when we bypassed the first 2 groups by mounting and running, then wiped on the 3rd group and had to start over, the first 3 groups got bugged or something and would agro when one in the first group died.

Anyone had this happen at all??????

i just mount after ick and krick and skip the first two groups so can't tell. but usually when such a thing happened to me it was some shaman misfiring because i just tabbed through the mobs and got one from another group :-)

When I try this I get slaughtered. The second 2 groups aggro and I never drop aggro off the first 2. So what's the trick?

Soon as you kill ick and krick loot up fast, mount up your guys, and just run up the hill - don't stop till you're past the first two groups at the bend.

As soon as you approach the hill the mobs spawn, so don't dither or be timid - mount up and hoof it.

i stop after the first two groups and kill then the skeletons group. they're kinda simple and easy i don't know how much crusader aura helps in getting past the mobs.
