How many times were you bouncing the balls? I think we did 5, 3, 3, 3 without any issue. As long your tank pop CD when the stack are getting high (raid CD are also welcome), raid damage should be manageable with 3 heals.

As for the balls bouncing, we used the positioning suggested here and never had any trouble.

Spoiler: show

Essentially, melee are stacked on tanks and face the range. As soon as the balls spawn, tank turn the boss 180degree and the balls should automatically ping pong between both group with little to no movement. After the 5th bounce on range, every melees run through the boss (stack on the tank) and the ball should hit the boss.

We fucked up once, but I had no issue moving the boss around to "catch" the ball. Every other time, it was just a matter of melee moving out of the way after the correct number of bounces. This fight was about as close to "tank and spank" as it can get.

Warlord was kind of annoying. We had an issue where the ball would hit our dk's ghoul or spriest shadowy apparitions and cause issues. Figured it out eventually, but I wouldn't be surprised if blizz changes the mechanic to avoid pets.

shit is hilarious in raid finder letting it bounce 10+ times and shit lol

**The Stig** · 2011-11-30 19:25

Never tried LFR yet, thanks for the tips. The other trouble I suppose we had was for some bizarre reason only 6/10 guild showed, so we had 4 pugs. 1 left after 1 wipe, apparently he did it perfect in LFR so expected this to be easy too. And 2 guys didn't get on vent so reactions were much slower than usual.

So we essentially 9 manned it for 30 mins (as it was end of raid). The main healer (who is very good, shaman) was complaining about the debuff/dot that we get, saying if it wasn't for that then this fight would be much better. He hasn't tried LFR.

Katlan: yup we used that tac as seen in the pic/article. We bounced 3 only though, as we found bouncing 5 would mean we wipe eventually lol

Will try again Sunday. It's not hard for sure, just gimmicky.

Okay, what the fuck, it's been over a day now and I'm sick of half my fucking addons still being broken. This isn't fucking XI, I thought Blizz didn't break add-ons every fucking patch.

What is broken? Mine were all working fine without updating, and everything I'm using was updated yesterday or today. The only one giving me error is DBM, but its been crashing for a while now.

**Aksannyi** · 2011-11-30 20:58

Well I logged out to set it to load "out of date" add-ons and most of them worked when I reloaded. But from the get-go, Altoholic, Auctioneer, BankItems, Postal, Gatherer, Over Achiever, and a few others wouldn't load until I logged out to fix that.

After all that, Auctioneer is completely fucking borked so I have to wait for an update. I can't even search the fucking AH.

Is this your first patch with WoW?

Shit breaks every single patch pretty much because they tweak the lua's and fuck around with stuff for some reason

**Aksannyi** · 2011-11-30 21:57

I've been through a few I just don't remember my add-ons (to include my UI) all breaking/disabling. Then again I don't know if I used as many back when I played before. Bleh, oh well, most of them are running now, hopefully the rest will get working in the next few days.

BiS frost DK weapons = tank weapons from Deathwing, to the point where raid finder swords > regular axes from Morchok >_<

Tank was flipping a shit tonight when I was talking about that.

**Aravil** · 2011-12-01 00:55

Really? BiS list on EJ shows heroic Souldrinker as the best. Or do you consider that a tank sword?

**Guitarman** · 2011-12-01 02:27

yeah thats a "tank" sword unfortunately. almost 100% guarantee i'll be stuck with normal mode morchok all this expac though.

What's the point of forbearance when you use Lay on Hand?

There really isn't many fights where Divine shield and LoH overlap, and the rare times they do, you just end up skipping Lay on Hand.

Cause PvP paladins had 3 health bars without it

Ended up getting Normal tier shoulders on Tuesday so I did a LFR to try and get a second piece for 2p..

Second boss, 3 different prot. Tier tokens drop and I'm like, wow maybe I'll get one.

SOME FUCK WON ALL THREE - HELM, SHOULDERS, LEGS. Next boss, prot gloves drop. THAT SAME MOTHER FUCKER WON THEM. HE WON FOUR PIECE OFF TWO FUCKING BOSSES. FUCK THIS GAME.

With Lay on Hand being locked in arena fight and Divine shield being nerfed to 6 seconds, it's really much of an issue anymore.

**Odon** · 2011-12-01 12:24

You're forgetting about Rated BGs, which was why the change was implemented in the first place.

Every time I read the an example, whether it be from blizzard or from players, on how the loot works I don't quite get it.

So you can only get 'loot one time per boss per week in LFR but from that same boss you can get multiples drops if you happen to win it?

If so that makes no sense.

And then if you run that same boss again, in a different LFR, you are exempt out of getting any gear?

Blizzard w t f bro?

**Kaylia** · 2011-12-01 13:02

You're only allowed to roll the first time you kill a boss every week. You will be locked out of the loot pool the 2nd times and every subsequent kills.

It's pretty much the same as before, except that you're now allowed to help your group on fight you have already completed this week.

**Jer** · 2011-12-01 16:34

I enjoy the part where they said T13 would be unavailable for VP purchase since they were adding LFR and you'd be able to run it as many times as you want until it dropped. Then they limit getting a boss's loot to once a week. Which is the way it was.
