So all you read in every forum is how Mech is the most often run heroic dungeon.
Our usual team just can't manage to down Panth for some reason.
We get through the dungeon without any problems, have run it 5 or 6 time so far.
We bypass the 2nd boss of course, and head straight away for Panth.
We usually run with myself (tank), Ret-Palli, Lock, Mage, and Holy Palli.
We've tried assigning the mage on the adds that he spawns....nope.
We've tried stopping all dps on boss when adds spawn.....nope.
The next thing we're going to try is for me to gather up the spawns, and keep all focused dps on Boss....we'll see how that goes.
Does anyone have any proven strategies that I haven't mentioned here?
This could just be a gear-thing on our part, but I don't see why we can't get him down.
Any tips, suggestions, comments, strategies are welcomed.
Thanks !

Bring a lok, fear bomb the adds.
The adds are immune to lock's fear.
Can only be feared by priest/warrior/s-priest
thanks though.

just holding aggro on the adds should work if you have good dps in the group.
killing them might work as well if you have lock+mage AOE them.

A single commanding shout > AOE would wipe out the first group with ease. Warrior fear the second group and AOE them again.
So, if only the warrior/(s)priest combo can fear, why not drop the loladin and pick up and dps warrior or spriest in your case?
I dont get it...more HP will wipe them out? Or are you saying that use the HP buff then AOE? OR Challenging Shout to aggro all the mobs, then proceed to AOE? I dunno, maybe I'm nuking this, but I dont get the CS>AOE as ">" usually means greater than(or then).

sorry i meant challenging shout lol
Whoops, I edited it... I thought you had a problem with the path to him, not him by his self.
The boss fight. He's pretty easy actually. When he pops the adds: T. Clap, to get the initial aggro. I'd really suggest having the other Pally posibly lay down a AoE tanking if he has a shield, while still burning down the boss. Lock/Mage AoE the boss (which will hit his adds). If things are going bad throw up Intimadating shout... it'll let your pally healer catch up.
*edit* Here's some suggestions: Wowwiki link
The hardest part is, if I remember right, he controls a party member. If he gets your healer it could be problems. Luck plays a part in it.
*edit* I think AnotherSquirrel is correct too. I never remember having a problem with fearing the adds. I don't know how priest/warrior fear whould work but warlock's fears would not. However, Wowwiki only mentions Warrior, Priest, and Priest fears in the link.

Unless they've changed it recently they most definitely are not. My main is a lock and we used to have warrior Intimidating shout first batch and myself fear second.
Don't really bother fearing anymore as we burn him down so fast it's pointless. 1k+ dps FTW

Lol, it's not fun when he mind-controls our T4/T5 rogues who can pretty much 2-shot any non-pally healer. Was healing on my druid there yesterday and our biggest problem was the rogue killing me and the mage during mind-control.

We usually fear the adds. If we're short on fears then I try to hold as many with me as I can and the DPS just tries to burn him down fast while keeping the stray adds off of the healer.
Someone in my usual group said that if you run out the elevator after the last hallway group and make him reset that he will take longer to spawn the adds but I can't confirm that.

his adds are not immune to lock fears. whenever i run heroic mech with a lock and take on that boss, i always pop my fear first, then lock fears second and priest fears third, then lock and priest alternate as needed.

Wrong, unless it is the lock getting mind controlled. I 4-manned mech once with 2 locks, a pally healer, and myself (prot warrior). This was before the nerf where locks can enslave the driller demons. Pantheon was easy with the chain fears and the dots. We even kited the fire lady onto the bridge.

That must have been a while ago because you can't do that now. She will reset if you run out to the bridge.
