| 00:01.57 | Ivnedar | ZorbaTHut: Makes things much harder if the tank isn't in LoS of the healers |
| 00:02.18 | Ivnedar | If I run up against the wall, I can be tanking the boss, but I can't be healed and if I back up a step, the boss can't see me any more |
| 00:02.30 | Ivnedar | He won't reset by being pulled through the gate like other bosses |
| 00:03.04 | Ivnedar | I imagine that if the rest of the raid was outside the gate, it would trivialise the fight as everyone is out of LoS of the boss and out of range of any mechanics |
| 00:03.09 | Ivnedar | but we didn't think to try that ;) |
| 00:07.17 | ZorbaTHut | if it's not exploitable, the answer is probably going to be "don't tank him there" :V they'll check to see if it's exploitable, though |
| 00:07.55 | Ivnedar | normally, bosses won't have LoS issues through the lockout gate |
| 00:08.07 | Ivnedar | so they'll run for the tank and reset when they leave the encounter area |
| 00:08.29 | Ivnedar | this one was weird, it'd not see the tank if they weren't pressed against the outside of the encounter area |
| 00:08.49 | Ivnedar | and would be overlapping the gate so they could be targetted when they were against the gate |
| 00:09.34 | Ivnedar | normally an elf cleric tanks it, and they do it with their back to the corner to make sure the trash adds hit the mini instead of the boss |
| 00:09.51 | Ivnedar | we're geared enough to ignore that mechanic and just heal through the boss buffs |
| 00:10.07 | Ivnedar | so we just stood in the middle of the room and killed him |
| 00:11.00 | Ivnedar | I assume there's a gap in the corner that's short enough that only the dwarf model can fit through it |
| 00:11.10 | ZorbaTHut | that's sorta funny |
| 00:14.47 | Ivnedar | I've always found it amusing/frustrating playing a shorter race in mmos. In wow, I had issues breaking into mount hyjal, as the wall jump you had to do relied on being tall enough that you'd hit your head while jumping against an outcrop which would push you out a few meters |
| 00:14.57 | Ivnedar | but I wouldn't hit my head :D |
| 00:15.28 | Ivnedar | or swimming vs walking water depths being different, so party is running around happily while I'm having to swim |
