Once you have all your buffs up (assuming you're doing it right), WAR is healing itself about as much as it's getting hurt (until the TP is gone). Vengence/Foresight for lowering damage taken and Bloodbath/InnerRelease/Berserk/Unchained + Overpower is about 20 seconds of near-invincibility on large pulls.

I also try to put Maim up first.

[OWS_Tonx]

The tank I usually go with prefers to do it on war as well if we're with our regular healer. If we have to PF one he generally goes war. WAR is mad beast in there. innerbeast + bloodbath + vengeance + over power spam is godly. I usually just go blm for the deeps, but I have been wanting to try to tank it

[Gulkeeva]

Also is it just me or do WARs survive the first pull in Brayflox a lot better than PLDs? As SCH healer. idk, every PLD I've ever had melts there like butter the instant Sentinel goes down.

Only time I've had tanks dip low, is when the pld forgets to do shield oath or I forget to turn off cleric stance >.> (got tired after like 4-5 hours!).

I think its just overall how well tanks do their abilities. Some like to just pop everything at the start and some actually stagger their abilities out for the entire time mobs are alive.

The first pull is the only moment PLD should use HG, so if they can't do HG then sentinel, rampart+awareness and foresight at the end then change the PLD (mobs shouldn't last that long).

[Indomitable Will]

pld's should be popping HG at start, then rotating all other cooldowns...but WAR is OP for aoe dmg from the tank, HG>WHM holy's until pld dips below 2-3k hp>whm pops bene on pld>continue regular rotation

Are you guys getting Paralyzed just about every first pull? Any tips to avoid it or just pray the healer takes it off ASAP. Avoiding multiple AoEs while putting buffs up is annoying will PPPed.

[Raldo]

That fucking Coeurl, man. That paralyze is unavoidable, to my knowledge.

[Lyall]

It's the last coeurl, I believe. Happens to me every single pull but thankfully hasn't been consequential.

I think this paralyze works as an en-effect. And you can't avoid it.

No, it's a mob ability called "Microblaster". Instant cast, so you're not going to be able to stun/silence/interrupt it. It does sometimes fail to take effect, though.

The coeurl's auto-attacks are just damage.

and here i thought i just sucked at dodging all the time.

[Rocl]

I'm fairly certain there's a ground AoE (Charged Whisker?) that inflicts paralysis as well, but I'm fairly certain that yeah, there's an 'en-effect' paralysis too

Hmmm to be honest i've never noticed it. Not sure if it worth/works to prevent the coeurl from using it (like stuns or even pacification before it casts, but i'm gonna test).

Instant paralyze from coeurl (single target), but I just remove it whenever I finish my heal, or while I'm not casting anything on a large pull. I don't remove the third time its cast because it lasts about 2-3 seconds, and the 4th+ the tanks are immune to it.

Never really caused any problems that i've seen (except for me) if the tank gets paralyze effect while kiting and I get aggro removing it O_o (i've yet to die from it though)

This. Easy to see if you have a window for just "Enemy readies/uses X".

if your watching it, the coeurl tends to lurch back a little then forward and a sound effect + white ring infront of its face as it does it.

I try to watch for the animation as I heal to remove it as its going off (since its faster then a cast of leeches anyway). I already watch to make sure I'm not in any cones and for crit/no crit adaq as is so O_o

most you can do is bash them as you run by them so it takes longer for you to get para'd the 1st time

After this happened, I started doing drive-by stun on the first couerl. If the second coeurl is on or up the wooden ramp when you arrive, the Brutal Swing timer should be ready to stun it too. PLD can bash regardless.

This is kind of a waste because Hallowed wears off before all the mobs even get to you. Pop Sentinel first.

There's no way to avoid the Paralysis. The two couerls will hit you with it constantly and I think the raptor's Frost Breath inflicts it as well.

[Araius]

WAR with Holmgang works just as well as PLD with HG on that first pull, if you have a WHM popping Benediction anyway. They can sit at 1 HP for 4-5 seconds, Bene to instantly full, I never take off Cleric's even, continue Holy facemelt.

Dat animation lag though. Ugh. I always pop it when I see 2 seconds left on Holmgang buff since I don't trust it.
