Title: Twins Aggro
Post by: TeaLeaf on October 25, 2006, 01:29:03 PM
It seemed to me that other than the bits where Ragnarh died (and after), there were times before this that Ragnarh or Gorion lost aggro on Vek'lor. Am I right, or am I right or am I right or am I wrong?

If so why and how?

I have been thinking the same as rag but also goes for the priests.
I am thinking of trying a healer rotation there. I know our side could easyly keep gorion up.

I think there is a crutial point in the teleport fase somewhere that he is 'open' to healing aggro. But once the aggro 'sticks' after a teleport, you won't loose it.

It's probably the 2 seconds immediately after teleport - there is a 2 second stun immediately after which is the window for the new tank to gain proximity aggro and then build 'other' aggro.  I have to say I went into the fight expecting pure proximity aggro from what I had read and it is clear that this is not the case, it may start with proximity aggro but needs other aggro too imo.

As a continuation of general Twins taccies, there is a wierd offhand reference to the bugs on EJ's forums.
Quote from: EJ ForumsThey seem impossible until you figure out the gimmick, and then they're probably no harder than Hakkar.

Here's a hint: You think those exploding bugs hurt you, well....
Is it possible the exploding bugs do damage to the Twins?

Could well be the case since you use the poison to damage hakkar instead of healing him. I will try to find some info on the internet.

I think I know what the hint means.  I believe the exploding bugs also kill the small bugs.  Watching the Curse video there is a clearly shown shot where an exploding bug takes out about 12 little critters that I believe had been rounded up deliberately to clear floor space.  Now why they had rounded them up I do not know, but it appeared they did.  When the big went bang, the little critters were next seen lying dead on the floor.
