Anyone have any tips for getting past this guy's "Bad Breath spam" phase when he gets low on life? The Bind/Grav/Sleep/Nuke combo was doing great until I got him to around 25% health, at which point he Chainspelled Bad Breath - I'm not kidding, there was literally no lag between them. Of course he eventually became unbound, and I was still sitting there silenced/paralyzed/bound and that was the end of that. My thoughts so far:
- I'm wondering if his Bad Breath spam has a limit to it. He stopped after 5-10 of them (I wasn't counting, just gritting my teeth at that point), but why? Does he have a specific number he stops at? Is it time-based? It felt like SE did some funky coding and gave him a psuedo-SAM-2hour-deal where each Bad Breath costs 50 TP, but that seems rather unlikely. I can't think of anything else that would explain why he suddenly stopped spamming at a certain point, beyond a set limit of Bad Breaths, but SE would never be that kind.Figuring this out would make the end phase a lot easier.
- I'm thinking that Chainspell -> Gravity -> Blizzard II spam might work if I do it at 30%, but if he gets off even one Bad Breath that could ruin everything. And from what I can tell, the range on Bad Breath is at least as big as my casting range. Casting Barparalyze combined with Barstone might help, since paralyze was the one thing that killed me (echo drops followed up by sleeping him would take care of silence/bind). Any other ideas?
