i have been clearing Heroic HoR since the 2nd day it went live. i cleared it almost every day for weeks while farming the OH for my team and I have run all my other 80s through it using my paly.. reto sham..2 eles and whatever alt I'm running through.
There is ZERO luck involved. How? its all been stated in this post, but ill go over exactly what i do.
First I LoS every inc trash, I target a ranged and move all the way into that V niche so I'm am completely out of LoS, if more than one ranged are inc, I target a priest or mage or rifleman ( in that order of priority ). When I can cast avengers shield on the ranged I have targted, it gives me a clue that the whole pack "should" be on top of me. I DO NOT DPS OR HEAL until ALL the adds are right on top of my paly >>this is KEY to not having things get out of control. If you DPS or HEAL too early, the caster adds or the rifleman will stand out in the room and make it hard for you. You can buy time to make sure all the adds are agroed on the tank by timing your HOLY WRATH for right when the last mob ( normally one of the casters ) is on top of you. Holy Wrath and step through, laying another consecration down. rinse and repeat. You can also pop fire eles on the last wave if you need to.
For the first boss I drop magma totems at my feet while the boss is inc.. I pop hero and DPS and tank him on top of my crew, and simply use IWT when he fears.. WHILE I'm FEARED i am spamming CH, so it goes off as soon as the fear breaks..IWT .. tap back arrow to stop and dps..rinse and repeat until he dies.
The main thing is NOT to PANIC! i think most people fail at this place due to PANIC. Take a deep breath, always think ahead a step or two, use all the tools your paly has ( hammer stun.. holy wrath.. even fear in a pinch ) You CAN do it! I know you can!
Disclaimer: This is not advice for non paly tank groups 8) GL to those of you with mixed teams!
