....just ignore the bit at the start where he pulled and the Broodlord ran straight past his uber aggro generating abilities and started pounding on Akall :roflmao:

You have to know TL, that it was "working as intended"! It was actually a very well know druid-pull tactick, where you use two druids to max disorient your target when you pull him (and the rest of the raid for that matter)

So when are you gonna let Vargen tank Nefarian?

Mortal Strike (MS) - A critical strike MS can inflict upwards of ~6500 damage

Blast Wave - AoE attack inflicts ~3000 pts of damage

Starting to sound scary

glad its not my squishy mage but up there

How much HP did sifredi/mt1 have ?

And since this seem to be a very agro cautious fight, can i trust KTM enough or should i really start slowing down spellcasting ?

ps
note to self. update ktm

PPS
Lovercraft would u plz not link to goldsellers. im getting anoyed enough on wow by hunterbots, not to want to be reminded here

Neff · September 23, 2006, 06:02:31 PM

Blast Wave is prob. whatll save your squishy mage;) If you get high on agro, get hit by it on purpose( I dont say you will get, but if you get alot of agro) and your agro is reset;)

If the warriors have enough defense they can't get critted (or at least the change is very very small). Also a blocked attack can't be a crit; so warriors should be able to avoid crits all together.

That's also the reason druids tanks are generally not a good idea on him; MS crit + blast wave = dead druid :sad: .

TeaLeaf · September 24, 2006, 07:12:19 AM

Vargen tanked quite well on our last BWL run, his main issue was not the damage he took but holding any kind of aggro against our MTs who kept stealinghis temporary MT1 role.

As for caster aggro, T-lor, the tanks go in first (casters and melee clean up the final whelp pack whilst the MTs establush initial aggro). Hunters and rogues then start after about 1-2% damage. Casters start auto-attack (wand) only after 4-5%, so threat should not be an issue to you at all. If you do climb the threat meter then simply wander into AOE range and take a knockback, it will wipe your aggro and steal 3k health. Simply bandage and return to the fight. RG1 have in the past instructed some warlocks (and others) to go stand in the blast range for this aggro-reducing purpose.

I've been searching for info about broodlord and appearantly his mortal strike can't crit anymore, so this is no longer a problem.

And yes Vargen did pretty well on him. Considering he isn't specced for it and Broodlords aggro is kind of 'weird'.

Druids always die twice......SS ftw!!! :biggrin:

Nah, we only die twice at Razorgore. It's our way of resetting aggro :flirty: .

This cant be done due to the nature of the druid class call i am afraid. Cause you will lose 4/5 of your bear armor and 3k hp roughly.

His MS cant crit afaik, but druids have enough armor and hp to do this w/o flasks apperantly, if you have enough armor you can take up to 25% less dmg then a prot spec tank. And even with flasks we still lose warriors every so often.
