Nope, not disarmable. It's been a long time since any boss is actually disarmable. Last one was ToC 10, Beast.

Better talent for you to pick up as the off tank would be Safeguard since you can trivialize Soul Reaper completely with proper usage of Intervene. Not to mention as already indicated, the Lich King is immune to disarm... until someone else disarms him for you.Quote:

Nope, it's normal. They can be stunned, not rooted. Slowing effects cap out at 50%.
i would like some more specific details for healers.what should they do?i mean excepti keeping everyone alive... :)
For healers? Well, pretty much the same as everyone besides healing.
a) Don't stand in defile (or drop defile in grp)
b) Grp up when Valk pops
c) Move if you spawn raging spirit
d) Get to the Horror (behind it) if you get the plague
e) Don't stand in Raging spirit's silence AoE
f) Move inside the room when Quake hits.
g) Heal the NPC if you got suck into the Frostmourne room (Havast soul)
h) Watch the Ice sphere when walk back inside the room.
i) Move away from vile spirits and heal the soaker
Also... Depends on your class and spec as a healer
1) Bubble everyone before infest (Disc Priest)
2) Cleanse the Plague when the person is in position
3) Heal tank(s) like crazy during soul reaper.
4) Heal the player who got havast soul
5) Heal the tank(s) and give external cooldown to tank(s) if anyone died from Havast soul
So, Cliff note:
a) Heal
b) Don't suck
My guild is still struggling mightily with phase2 10man normal.
It's a casual guild with players too polite to point out someone else's mistakes, so I can't really be sure what the problem is. Our RL (resto druid) blames himself for not being able to keep up with infest when we're all spreading out to avoid defile. So I guess we just need advice on healing phase2. Maybe if we fix that we'll identify other problems we're having.
We run with RestoDruid, DiscPriest, HolyPaladin
Is there a particular way for this combination of healer classes to work together and help us through p2?
(in case it matters, the rest of the raid is ProtWarrior, BearDruid, UnholyDK, ArcMage, FireMage, EleShaman and MarksmanHunter)
Thanks

The stuff in bold, that's his job. The resto druid shouldn't need to be having headaches over infest when there's a disc priest right there. Especially now that Rejuvenation is much lower duration. That's a huge part of the disc priests job in that fight.Quote:

Perhaps the problem is a range issue, as in if people are spreading so far for defile they're out of the healers range when infest goes off?
If that's the case then i'd suggest not running to far for your defile spreads, it really isn't neccessary to be spread more than a few yards apart from each other as long as everyone's aware they'll have to move when defile goes off.
If that's not the case then it just sounds like your healers aren't reacting fast enough to defile. All 3 healers should be running boss timers so you should know when defile's about to hit. Your Disc priest should be prebubbling the raid, and your Druid can help with wildgrowths. Even the Pala can top off 3/4+ people with a Light of Dawn.
Thanks for the video, really helpful.
I was curious though, what addon are you using that puts your heals on the side. That looks nice and I'd love to try that out.
Can the Valks be help temporarily in place by a hunters pet that can use a venom web spray, or are they immune?
They can be slowed, dazed, or stunned only. Stun is the only effect which can lock them in place for a short duration. All slows also have a limit of 50%, they can't be slowed beyond 50%.Quote:

You have to train the raid, they need to move out of the middle for defile, but not run to the end of the earth; also they need to be aware of who's got the defile, if it's not them and it's not some one zoning out in the middle - the clean players need to get their butts back to the middle - "oh, Defile target is across the room, the middle is safe let me get back in before a Valk comes and takes me away." People need to actually talk on vent during the fight, we allow (encourage) anyone in raid to call out in vent time to Defile and Valk - it's like an alarm clock and wakes people up who might be getting tunnel vision. Also, since I was tanking the LK this weekend, I was calling the hunters to the middle; they get hung up on their min range and Valk love stray hunters. It's really a fight about situational awareness and being your brothers keeper.Quote:

If you cut your dps by adding extra healers it takes longer to kill bosses, thus making it harder for the healers because the boss is up longer leaving more room for error. Killing bosses fast and hard, quick transitions, and smart players make the fights easy... But the main goal is to kill him so, practice is key here... put in some solid attempts and work at it because thats what its gonna take for your guys to kill him...Quote:

While it is possible a single healer can last long enough during this timeframe until the other healer is free to act again, having a third healer provides you with a backup.Quote:
