Although i've only downed General so far and havn't killed Yog yet from what i've seen Ranged on Yogg and Melee on adds would seem to make much more sense
This fight is really simple. Its a matter of controlling DPS. Not balls to the wall. We three shotted this boss, fight night we saw him. Mimiron actually gave us more problem's (Warlock tanks suck imo)
Only thing I'd suggest for a boss fight video like this is to have a way of showing new people what each of the adds, areas and abilities do. Maybe you could implement some arrows pointing to different parts or mobs to hep clarify what is what while explaining the fight. I wasn't sure what was going on during certain parts and had to read the guide at the same time.
This is by design. From the tankspot forum: "Please note: The 25-man video primarily focuses on 25-man issues rather than the entire list of abilities or tactics used throughout the encounter. Please watch the 10-man video and Stratfu's video below to get the full picture!"
Well he even says they didn't do Phase Three the right way. It's clear that this Strat works but as CiderHelm indicates it was only their 3rd time and they didn't have the chance to yet perfect the strategy.
Our guild is so close to getting Yogg down, I just don't understand why are there so many tentacles outside when we get to phase 3 even clearing up the tentacles to open the brain room as fast as we can.
Melee on adds and Ranged on Yogg works a LOT better than this strat. No wonder not many people have down Yogg if they're going by the Tankspot video, they're trying the much more difficult strategy. Hell, even the video made it look hard!
kuaieq dont be an asshole if their strategy works then it works u dont need to be a bitch cause o ur guild SUPOSEDLY did this fight better which of course u cannot prove so i advise u to stop being a litle prick and shut up
Great guide! Our guild is currently halfway through on phase 2... after about the second portal, everything starts to fall apart. This should help us pull it together. Thanks!
I'm a shadow priest, if Ice blocks work to get out of those tentacles in phase 2, I'm sure dispersion should too. I'm going to try that out the next time I get gripped by one of those things. I know that dispersion works great in earlier bosses. You can get away with using it in the kettle/pot fire boss when you get thrown in the kettle and with the right/left arm dude when your in his grip.
Hey guys, I just thought I should put up a quick update. So I tried the whole dispersion thing and it DID NOT work. I stayed trapped. /sigh. But you can use it to reduce the damage you take while your up there. I also found out that you can heal yourself while your up there and do damage to the thing grabbing you. You aren't even restricted to instant casts. Even Channeling works fine. My mind flay (a channeling spell) had no problems.
What are the addon you use to show your debuffs on your target (sunder armor, thunderclap, demo shout. also your commanding shout ) ? Looks great! would much like to add those to my UI!
when we were doing phase 2 last week, we had 2 healers (shaman, druid) as we expected it to be an area with alot of incoming damage... as the vid states this is not so much the case, though having heroism in the brain room is a tremendous help.. we used it on first portal phase and according to sated debuff we would have been clear to heroism again in P3 at the point where we would focus on yogg. all around great fight imo.
what addon is it you use to see the Health of the mobs spawning around like you see in phase 3 whit that elite dragon also on :) and thx for an awesome strategy
What is the name of the mod that changes the mob templates over their name in this video? The basic WoW template frame doesn't show casting time anymore. I also like the unit icon that comes with it. I can't seem to find anything resembling it. Please let me know. :)
a lot of mentions in p1 and 2 about doing things to avoid the enrage but from what I understand of the fight the enrage timer only starts in p3 is my info wrong? or is he?
I believe that addon is called "Sexy Map" Not 100 percent sure though. Allows customization of the mini map, you can change the shape of it and other stuff like that also. His could be different though. But it looks like sexy map.
What add-on do you use for you bars plz message back on my sign in name i do not look at the comments alot Thanks :) great video. Also could u just tank like 20 adds and have everyone on the boss for 3rd phase?
The adds in Phase 3 have a Buff on them which increases their Melee dmg significantly so the more adds that are spawned the faster your tanks will die. the Faster you DPS the faster this buff becomes nothing more then childs play (adds in phase one)
Algalon the Observer is only available after you've defeated the 4 watchers on hard-mode (Mimiron, Freya, Thorim and Hodir).
Only then you get a quest for the summoning of Algalon, as the watchers were alive in this video they did not kill them on hard mode, i.e they aren't able to start Algalon yet.
Algalon is only opened to players who have downed hard mode on most bosses. As of now there is not one guild to down algalon nor attempt him and if there is, its not written.
Thank you Tankspot and Ciderhelm for another great video. My guild really appreciates them.
For those wanting to know about Ciderhelm's UI: there is a thread dedicated to his UI on the Tankspot forums which has details of which addons he uses.
