HEROIC - Shannox - DEFEATED 25/09/2011

[TeaLeaf]

Aye, the change to 'T' formation worked well, even of we did not quite execute properly towards the end of the kill!
Keys were:
-must remember to break facerage when it is on hunter/arc mage
-immo traps must be slowly cleared throughout the encounter to avoid wary
-even though more traps are in middle (due to Rip tank healer + slower) we should continue to try to drop stacks without using the crystal trap as Rage with high stacks is far more dangerous and caused more wipes
-moving side to side after Rage gets trapped worked well
-hunter/arcane mage has to remember to swing to other side of facerage to put a crystal trap inbetween Rage and the hunter/mage
-circular kiting of Shannox worked well but only worked when Rip arrives and is behind Shannox while Shannox is moving

As I said last night, I fraps it and I'm not making a movie of it.  All in all, textbook :blush:

The last try changes i was more happy about with the extra slows. It gave me some time to get my stacks off and twisted a bit more time to start the kiting.

I was really struggling with the kiting without any slows - my success rate at dropping stacks was maybe 1 in 6.
With the slows I think I only failed once to drop the stacks.
I think one of the reasons is that I need a long view (camera panned out) so I can see rip coming so I know when to start kiting, but I also need a vertical view when kiting so I can avoid traps (tank in trap == wipe). With Ice calling out when to start kiting as opposed to when the spear is hurled means that I can change my view a lot sooner, which makes the kite easier.

Even though it wasn't a "clean" kill, it was still a kill and we should take heart from this and do it much easier next time.
I expect that in a week or two, this should be a one-shot heroic boss like Halfus from the last tier.

for the person that is gonna break facerage face if he facerages a person in the raid ( o snap. )

When he gets debuffed by a imolation trap you can not trap it into a freezing trap for like 20 sec.
So when hes debuffed save your cooldown ( deterence? icecube? ) for that bit.
If he doesnt get debuffed its a pretty eazy fight on your part
