tanking in 55-70 zones

Post#1 » Sun Jul 08, 2012 4:39 pm

good morrow all,

i recently set foot into nagafen's lair after finishing the headhunting portions of Guk and Karnor's. my warrior is at lvl 62 with 9k hp and 2.3k ac buffed. up through this nothing had really been much of a challenge once i got the hang of controlling all 3 boxes.

once i stepped into the lair though, things got much harder. trash mobs are still easy, but nameds pose a significant threat and have taken my tank from full to dead in seconds. i run war/shm/rng with cleric bot. if defensive is up then i can pop that and it's not much of a problem, but once enrage hits, i'm spamming heals on my shaman to try and keep the warrior alive.

am i doing something wrong? is there a clicky i should be getting for tanking enrage? magelo is in my sig, any help would be appreciated.

Its a good idea to use an audio trigger for enrage to remind you to turn off attack. When a mob enrages, it will riposite for around 10 seconds. Its the same thing as using furious disc. If i dont have defensive on i sometimes use furious to save me stopping attack and missing out on lifetap procs. Kael gloves alsyo have this clicky, 15 min refresh i think.

The 2 can be used for the very end of a fight when you run out of defensive and you just need 20 more seconds to win. Your warrior will essentially take no melee dmg from mobs infront, and will riposite. A This can sometimes win the fight. I know it saved me a few times with sontalak back when i was a young fresh faced warrior.

Cyclonic attack is a good ae taunt, quick refresh. And my favourite is pulling 20 mobs, then go offensive with savage onslaught or fellstriike and then hit rampage aa. Quickly clears the pack. Before the 25 limit, was allways fun seeing if i could pull a whole ldon and kill them in 1 attack.
