Anub 25 burrow

[Cottonmouth]

Do dots continue to do dmg when he burrows?

[bbr]

They do on the northrend beasts.
Can't say for sure on anub, I'd think they do as he usually comes up with a different % health than he went down with.

[romek]

Never really paid attention to it, but you can clearly see if there'll be dmg ticking from nowhere if you dot him before burrow, like on mentioned above by Bbr, Twin Jormungars

Im 99% sure it doesn't as I have to reapply FFF every time he comes back up and thats a 5 min duration.

Hmmm sry, but why would this be of any interest?

I mean there is no way you can (ab)use it to your advantage.

Sure if he´s at 32% and will burrow soon, you could dot him up and try to make him unburrow, but shouldnt this dots be up anyways?

They do not, shortly after he burrows all dots are removed.

You haven't done the encounter have you? Once he starts casting burrow he's going to burrow and be under for the full duration of P2. He could cast at 31% and you could burn him to 28% while he's casting and he'll still go under.

OP: You'll notice he comes back up at the same percentage he burrowed with.

he doesn't cast burrow he just dives under

[sluggs]

my hunter mark gets removed so yeah when he burrows he removes all dots on him.

[Narit]

he doesn't cast burrow he just dives under

he wont unburrow. last wednesday we had him at basically 30.1% health and he stayed down the entire duration of the burrow phase. came up and immediately went into phase 3.

You guys are all wrong, he 'Submerges' - not burrow... the adds 'burrow', anub 'submerges'


;D

anywho, dots are removed. we've had him go under at like 31% before and he doesn't come up any quicker than normal - although when he does come up, gotta be ready for penetrating cold or w/e because it's comin on quick.

(although lately in 10mans we've been able to nuke him straight from p1 into p3 without a burrow phase - killing anub in under 2 minutes ftw)

It does matter because if he is about to burrow and you have a choice to apply a dot or use a direct damage spell the direct damage spell will almost always be better. Imagine a cat with 5 CPs and savage roar up, apply rip or use fercious bite? Rip does more damage but it depends on most of the ticks from rip actually ticking.
