Prot Paladin @ Kalecgos

[samsara]

Hi Mates,

i tried to search but couldn't find a kind of guide for Protadins @ Kalecgos. I've seen some posts over the internet that a prot-pala with some arcane gear can tank him solo in one of his phases but no detailed guide or video for something like that.

any links or descriptions here?

thx in advance

Not much of a specific guide, you get your AR to 200ish buffed, then tank the dragon phase the whole time.

You mean so long as we have 200+ AR, we could tank the Dragon until Demon die?

You'll resist some of the arcane debuffs and can use your bubble, if they stacked to high.

+ Only one tank at the dragon

- one tank missing at the demon, Kalecgos will take more damage
- your dps must be good enough to burn a) the demon down before Kalecgos dies, b) the dragon down before your arcane debuffs stacks too high while bubble is on cd

Ovarall, the normal approach with 3 tanks is safer and in my opinion better. I tested the AR tactics once, but did not resist more than one time. Could be bad luck, but there are no real advantages to take this risk.

I did tank one phase extra because of a tank death within kalecos. With bubble macro (bubble on, bubble off) he did not even switch targets.

We will still do a normal 3 Tank Rotation.

3tank rotation is probabaly the easiest way to do things. Just make sure your tanks get the rotation down and know how to take a portal when they are supposed to. And also know that when taunting kalec they need to stand right on top of the other tank so you don't shift him and get people in his frontal AoE or Tail AoE.

Just use 3 tank rotation you'll be fine hardest part of fight is making sure u dont kill Kalecgos toom fast while demon is at 80%

I haven't bothered taking a portal on kalec since 3.0 :[

I normally end up tanking the demon first and dragon second. We use the 3 tank rotation, and I take the first portal. Start attacking the demon, but don't taunt until after the 2nd portal goes to make sure there's enough healers down to heal you and the group.

When your debuff wears off, you auto port back to dragon. Taunt the dragon and then tank until the next tank comes back up. It's usually at this point (the 3rd tank on dragon), that the demon/dragon both die for us. Your mileage my vary.

"What % is the demon on?"
"Oh nevermind, Kalecgos down already"
"Was that portal 2?"

[Enkal]

I always start on Kalecgos, first tank in the first portal almost always die even tho I tell them every time to wait and see if there are any healers around.

Resistance gear.... whuuts that?

Seriously you dont need it anymore unless your dps sucks hard.

You never needed more than 80 arcane res (kara trinket + GotW) pre patch to solo tank the dragon realm, you just wait to 12stacks and bubble+taunt. Gives you about 4seconds of 0 incoming damage, then you drop bubble and start again with 0debuffs.

12 stacks was the boss at about 40% health in both realms, without any resists.
