First Nax run over the weekend. Things went good until we hit Grobbulus. I am the OT in 10 man. Gear, general tanking knowledge is all good enough. No problems there.
MT is excellent - Better geared than I am, but he (unlike me), he is the Lead and really knows what's going on. Every pull every fight. DPS seem capable - some are really excellent, a few are slower - as I don't DPS I won't comment further. Healers seemed very good - nothing stood out as bad.
So - I'm OT and on slimes duty. Do you have any pointers or tips? We got multiple slimes on a few occasions – but this was not the norm.
When Grob Emotes “Slime†I start tabbing – when I get the slime – Paly Taunt. If multiple slimes – Paly Taunt, TAB, Throw Shield. I try to pull them onto the grate that surround about ½ of the room or where the grate WOULD be – in the section near the ramp. Out of Melee range, closer to the casters, but not too close.
Here were my issues:
1. What do I do if I get injected? I can’t tank and run to the wall (We set up – Run behind melee to drop your disease).
2. What type of DPS support should I be getting? They have 75k – I can kill them, but it takes forever. I generally found 1 to 2 Casters were killing the adds. Should there be more or is this the norm (aka – I just need to deal with it.)
3. What do I do if I’m NOT tanking a slime – but get the injection – then a slime spawns and I’m out of position... This happened once – basically the slime charged our casters – we lived, but it was sloppy. Is there an OOT?
4. Is there a way to lessen my chances of getting the injection.
5. Can I Bubble it off? Or will that be a cleanse – thus a problem?
Any tips would be helpful. The fight seems like it’s easy for the MT – just walk backwards, call out when you plan on moving around the ramp area, hold agro, walk faster as the fight progresses… It really seems like it’s a stress for the OT, DPS, and Healers.
