[10] BH, third boss

[yappo]

On the very ditant risk anyone needs the tactics for this one.

This is the easiest boss ever released.

1) Whirlwind attack: Calmly walk away. You can't hurt the boss anyway.

2) Skewer attack: Always taunt. You will either already have been clubbed to the floor, in which case the other tank taunts, or the other tank is floored, in which case you taunt.

3) Loot.

How is the "stack on top of the debuff" mechanic working out, is there much room for failure? I'll wind up mostly pugging this and don't expect much of the people I'll end up with.

just stack the entire fight. seriously. two tanks outside of the raid, stack on the backside, as soon as whirlwinding starts, spread out and even then, the damage is woefully low.

Indeed. The raid damage seemed pathetic. We had people eating the first whirlwind (since it was their first time seeing it) and our healers had no issues healing it up. This is, quite honestly, the easiest of the three bosses in BH.

If you want success in a pug, tell your raiders this: Stack on the boss's ass/on a mark and spread out when the boss starts spinning.

15 manned the 25 version :/ Only death was a hunter (>.>) standing a bit too far when he got hit with the bomb thing. Strat was as said above, stack on boss, spread when whirlwind starts (don't waste DPS during this, she can't be hit except with dots that were already up), then stack up again.

This is by far the easiest BH boss they have released. Stack for the debuff, spread for whirlwind (or don't, the dmg is laughable), and taunt off the skewer. I really wish they added a BT first boss type mechanic where you would have to pick up the skewer to pop a barrier or something similar. This guy is literally a loot pinata.

[RedAces]

even easier than most LFR Bosses... :/

[KysenMurrin]

Alright then. Sounds like she really could have used an anti-stacking mechanic to make things slightly more interesting.

Errrr hope you haven't pugged it yet. We do it as a guild for the first month or two.

[KysenMurrin]

Not yet, I was waiting to find out, and expecting we'd run it. I usually end up pugging it more than not, though, once those runs are done and on alts.

15 manned you say? We might do that in our 10 man raid for extra chances at Tier loot.

once you figure out how to get 15 ppl in a 10 man raid let me know!

Yeah we're a 10 man too, just grabbed whoever else was online in guild at the time. Depending on gear you might manage with fewer people, we were just being conservative since it was our first time on the boss - it seemed easier than undermanning the T12 BH boss.

And yeah doing the actual 10 man instance doesn't seem at all worth it if you want PvE loot, I don't think we ever got any T12 PvE items from 10 man. Do 25 instead with your 10 man + whatever friends/family you can drag in.

[poptart]

I wanted to ask, is there an enrage timer on this boss?

Doing it in 25-man mode with our normal 10-man raid team sounds....kool. Extra loot is extra loot.

Keeping the lower number of toons healed does not seem that it would be hard. The only issue would be an enrage timer.
