Nice stuff, I'm more interested in how you do those bug trash packs tho. I imagine you do them without elemental totems to avoid having to wait for cooldowns?

I can 4 man most bosses with totems if need be, but those 4x bug packs screw me up without a tank present.
I think you will find people use duel earthbind totems and kite, dueling them will prevent a resist and get you killed. I havnt mastered the art of it yet in heroics but im trying:/


It'd also be interested in seeing different ways to clear the trash since as I currently do it, I never use earthbind kiting - ever (too lazy). Usually I just focus on taking out whatever is going to come running at me first, kill one right off the bat on the pulls, any other melees go down next, negate casters with grounding, ensure plenty of distance on the initial pull... etc.

As toned mentioned he uses stone claw and earthbind and no CL... I think I do the complete opposite.

Target melee, drop grounding, trinket+lightning bolt, followed immediately by a EM+CL, that takes out the first guy in a group easily, and damages two others nicely. Quick switch to the next target, lightning bolts + earth shock (if necessary before it has a chance to hit). Then just mop up any others.

For big packs like in heroic MgT, I add in a heroism/bl, and make sure grounding is always up - taking out mage guards first then bloodknights, then any others that are in melee range, then focus on casters.
