RoS P3

[Seloei]

Your warrior's fail at equipping high block value set and using Shield Block on p1? you don't have to be nb1 in threat to hold him so shield block > all.
BV is decent threat set for p2 also so...

We start off with a Warrior with high bv tank him the first phase, he ends up at around ~50% when enrage hits, rogue tanks him. I go in, hold him until his dead (and if needed a second rogue goes in). Warrior tanks p2 and i tank p3.

Phase1 is just a rotation of tanks. Even ask your resto druids go bear form and eat a few blows if you must.

The only thing that matters is hp in this fight, and then block value and pure avoidance. Blessing of Sanctuary and blessing of sacrifice both have their best use here, because you're always at 0 armor anyway. As long as the tanks don't die, threat doesn't matter because fixate lasts 5 seconds and is cast every 5 seconds.

Brothers? Don't assume all tankadins are male

We've killed RoS 4 times. 3 times with a warrior MT on p3, once with me tanking p3. Not only did I take less damage over the course of the phase due to taking far less soul scream damage, but I also generate more threat than the warrior MT on it. All in all, we think it made for a much smoother kill.

yeah pally mt all the way on p3, shame its about the ONLY thing im allowed to mt, lol at OMG MOAR THAN ONE TANK IN SWP :O

A quick question: how much SD do you need to hold aggro in P3?

I know our threat scales with holy damage, so if I can hold aggro on other bosses, do I need to stack more SD or just remain the same gear?

Currently I'm around 500 SD unbuffed and our top dps is around 1400.

that unbuffed SD sounds ok for your dps. I have tanked P3 twice now (new guild with warlocks pushing 2k dps) and use my threat set which I think is about 650 SD unbuffed or there abouts.

If you haven't got a SD trinket (41 badge one which the name escapes me atm, is good) and can afford to use one I would use it.

So when do you pop your wings and use trinket/destruction potions? At the start of the battle or wait until someone is catching up with your threat?

I don't have a SD trinket now but getting one with badges is no problem (600+ badges in bank). Is the battlemaster trinket better than the silver crescent one?

[Worldie]

start of the battle, combined with wigns and destru pot.

When someone catches you it's too late already to regain aggro, just taunt and keep it up.

Icon is nice for the on use extra threat at the start - wings + icon + destro pot = uncatchable threat lead.

I wish =( My threat set had 550 sd by the first time I did it, and I used all that shizz and the warlock caught up at the final 5%
"QQ I'm threat capped" No one realized the wait-for-seethe problem was solved! >.>
Can't wait to do it again tomorrow, with 800sd /roar


Answering worm: The icon is better threat on the merit of the use-effect alone. This fight doesn't last long enough for better passives to make a difference.

Now thinking of it, the fight shouldn't last longer than 100 seconds, so I will purchase the icon and use it together with wings and destruction potions. Thanks for the advice!

Probably doesn't matter much, but I delay popping all my threat abilities until after the second consecrate goes down....and perhaps a second or two after that. It allows a nice threat cushion to start and keeps the threat meters looking consistent for the raid. The locks still catch up near the end of the fight but the threat has a smoother feel than if I popped everything on the first consecrate. There's something to be said for the DPS blowing all cooldowns the same time the tank does. Necessary? Of course not, it's the same amount of threat regardless over the time period.

what the above posters have said. I blow them all at the start.

Actually i usually judge crusader on pull, and pop "everything" when judgement has 2 seconds CD

A pity that our main ret pal is on vacation. Although we have another ret pal but he is mainly in pvp gear...

[Worldie]

We never had a ret pala

No well, we had one who was in the guild for like 2 days Oo
