Can someone cast an eye over my Mogu'shan Vaults notes?
I am planning on tanking LFR for the first time, here's my strat for LFR :)- Re-watch Tankspot videos
- Re-read my notes
- Keep my notes up on 2nd monitor during raid
They are based on Mogu'shan Vaults Raid Guides by Icy Veins (http://www.icy-veins.com/mogu-shan-vaults-raid-wow), but also contain some tips from this Tankspot thread: http://www.tankspot.com/showthread.p...ime&highlight=
