How not to start heroic

[Tyval]

My first time through while gearing up wasn't very sophisticated, kept team close to tank, when adds or frost tomb came up I just aoe'd stuff (and had fire elemental up). Think I had more trouble with the duo.

My healer had decent gear though, my tank had much lower HP but was def capped. Think I was at 22k -ishselfbuffed.

Oh I kind of spazzed in the middle of the fight and just started mashing buttons, aoe, nuke, heal , what have you. So maybe you need to spazz more. hehe. When in doubt just pound dem keys!

I'm thinking now with isboxer and healbot, and new targeting macros with my click macros that fight would have much less spazz for me.

My tree doesn't go oom, he dies or other 3 dos die first, which kinda makesthe fight pointless. Other problem is I'm not the most elegent player, tend to sledgehammer anything by pre-planning moves and then whack. If something changes I'm not the most responsive, which is why I'm crap at pvp. Usually some shammy crits my pally for huge amount and instead of wondering how I'm going to heal, I'm thinking "wow I wanna shammy" then start a new team. But I digress. I'll try again tomorrow with your suggestions.

Well the key for the first boss is to position your guys, so the others can dps the frost tombs.
I like to spread them out, so at least two toons can cast as the frost tomb on the other two.
But bunching them is fine as well.
Use whatever works for you.

finally did it!!! took the follow tank route and bastard prince tombed my healer not once, not twice but 3 times. so he died and just dps'ed him down using LoH. Thanks for the help

Grats yeah the hards part is once you hit 80 finding the easyer of the heroics to gear up in and save the harder ones for a bit later. Its one big learning curve, once you get the boss down teh first time it gets more and more easy

Well I would definetly do some heroic PUGs with my tank and leave the rest of the team behind at 80.

My own progress have been slow with my team recently because I've had a lot of fun learning to tank the heroics.

Comments like:

"Hey Tank are you retarded?" have popped up once or twice, as I don't know the instances lol. But I don't give a sh** because as a tank I have 0 que for randoms. Its instant action so if people are annoying I can always leave. But 99% of the time its just a blast.

And just improving your gear a bit will help you fight your way with your whole team. I would recon just a couple of days worth of PUG's with your tank would yild nice upgrades.

Just see how much stuff I got in one gaming session last friday (see the activity feed 9th and 10th - one gaming session) - and I still suck:
