thats the heroic guide Razz

one you linked was normal~ Personally, I can't stand that chicks voice. There's nothing more annoying than her voice when you're watching that video between wipe attempts.

I was going to accuse you of just being sexist Tirador, but I think her voice sounds weird as well. What happened to our favorite Tank from Tank Spot???

I don't get it..whats wrong w/ her voice? lol, anyway according to this bubbles / feign / ice block should be used properly ..

On the video it said ice block and pally bubble will only make anub change targets and come back to the person after the affect wears off.. but feign will work

I think Frost Trapping is an effective tactic in this fight.

I'd like to try this strategy, also posted on Tankspot.

Aliena, As an alternative to the way you deal with adds, we did this:

Tank Anub on the permafrost, and have the offtank pull the adds under him. We had a rogue with imp FoK interupting the adds, and for the first set we dps'd down Anub and let incidental AoE kill the adds. As a hunter all I did was swap out Aimed shot for Multishot to do my part.

After the first set is down, the next set comes in, and since the adds are on top of where anub will burrow, we switch targets with 10 sec left in the first phase 1 and dps down the adds. Anub burrows and the adds are down.

We have exceptional dps, and so we shoot for one burrow phase, as you suggested as an alternative. We kite Anub, but make sure one permafrost survives. The tank stands on it so when Anub resurfaces he will run right to the ice.

We dps down Anub, again relying on incidental aoe for the adds. When we get to phase 3, we dps down the adds, so the offtank doesnt take the big damage in addition to the 20% leech. After they are down, we return to Anub. When the next set of adds spawn we let the offtank get aggro and then once again focus them. After they die we go straight to Anub, and the Main tank pulls Anub off the ice, because at this point we are at about 15-20% remaining. The next adds are again tanked under Anub, but since they are not on permafrost they burrow after the incidental AoE damages them enough. This gives us time to burn Anub down before more adds or the burrowed adds return.

Just thought I'd offer an alternative strategy for people who want to use a heavier burn rather than being surgical and precise with their permafrost.

I don't know, tbh I think we would of had it if we had some sort of MS effect for Leeching Swarm the way we were doing it. We almost had it to change now would be kinda meh imo, however tanking the adds closer to Anub is always a plus.

I think our biggest change will be just that, getting the adds and Anub'arak closer together. More incidental damage on adds means more time for our mages to dps the boss. And at the moment we transition to phase 3, I'd like to have all dps finish off the last two adds, then go full bore on Anub'arak.
