Day 2/3 - The Grind and the beginning of the end

Sorry for the lack of updates maybe no one cares but maybe someone doesJ, regardless here is a quick update.

So I got to 120 within 2 zones, I kind of got really bored doing the same thing over and over again so I made this plan where every 1hour I would do a dungeon just to change things up. Now this was easier for me since I could instant Q with 5 pallies since they all cover the slots needed. The most annoying thing about this is the bloody Specs change to what you queue as, which I don’t know how to stop if only someone could tell me how to stop it.

So after hitting 120 and because I do not have world quests up and I really DO NOT WANT TO QUEST ANYMORE (jokes I’ll go back to zuldazar later this weekend to finish it so I can get world quests) I decided to start the gearing process. Honestly I am having so much fun gearing again, with every boss having something I can use for one of my toons it’s amazing. I have learnt so much about each fight so far on normal in preparation for mythic, the key dungeon I have concentrated on is ataldazar so far I have learnt a few things,

Not all mechanics are multibox friendly, like the Princess fight in Ataldazar where you have to run into the bloods before transfusion. This is where the creativity of a multiboxing team is needed. Here is my TIP: When she gets to 90+ energy/mana start manually controlling each toon to go to the bloods, don’t leave it until transfusion starts as its going to be too late. (You all probably knew this but I did say what I learnt) The rest of the fight is tank and spank, swap to add with your IwT let the DPS kill the add and come back on boss

Now Rezan is interesting not because he is a super hard boss but because me having 5 prot pallies makes this fight a tank and spank. The only thing I needed to sort out was macros for casting BOP on targets with Pursuit/Devour, so to give some background I tried to actually do it normally BUT there is no point if you can cheese the boss. Having 5 pallies gives me 5 bops, 5 bubbles, 5 flash of lights going off back to back, meaning that even on tyrannical weeks this boss shouldn’t give me a problem. But I did have to deal with the LOS issue, so to make it easy I have made a macro that has

/target (name of master)
/cast Divine Steed

I then use the isBoxer in-built follow macro and I manually make the slaves hide with me so they don’t get feared.

So far it’s been fun, I have been learning so much about dealing with mechanics and timings of boss I am moving onto the next boss which I know will be the hardest to deal with, but I think I have a plan to deal with those bloody totems J

Anyway until next time

Shield you later

PS: Item Levels are 305,308,301,298,310 (got lucky with the world boss)
