    Festergut or Rotface?

    So our guild recently killed Rotface 25 man, but after a slow first wing (the lagg was terrible) and getting rotface down on 5th or so attempt, we decided to call it for the night and continue tomorrow, from the looks of it, festergut seems to be harder. If you voted Option 1 or 2, please explain why you think he's harder.

    Thanks for reading

    Edit: we just did festergut, he was A LOT easier than rotface. Unfortunately we had lagg for ~2hours so we wiped a lot on him because of the tremendous lagg (once got him to 2% with lagg before he enraged).
    We actually got him down on our second laggfree attempt, with 35 seconds left on the enrage timer.

    Rotface is harder I believe. Last night, in 10 man mind you, we downed Festergut in a 1 shot. Then had a few wipes on Rotface before people had to go. Rotface just requires a bit more coordination than Festergut does. Festergut is basically collapse, spread out, collapse, spread out. With Rotface, you need the OT to kite the slime properly. After each slime explosion you need the first person to kite their own slime. Those who have slimes need to run to the OT, allow it to be cleansed off and merge before heading back to the boss. While watching for slime pools. There is just a bit more to the fight. Which makes it more of a challenge than Festergut, IMO.

    1) Spread out.
    2) Clump up around spores.
    3) Repeat.
    4) ???
    5) Kill Festergut.

    Festergut is one of the easier ICC bosses. Rotface could actually wind up killing a person or two, if some crazy combination of mutation + slime spray + crap on the ground hits them all at once.

    Tactics wise Festergut is easy. You just need really good raid dps to beat the enrage timer.

    Re: Festergut or Rotface?

    Festergut is by far easier then Rotface, but by the difficulty Putricide presents neither really compare.

    5 min Enrage.

    1. /range 10
    2. Spread Out.
    3. Pull.
    4. One spore on Melee, and the other two spread with some distances between for ranged.
    5. Everyone has to stack up (right on top!) the second the spore disappears everyone spread back out (/range 10).
    6. Tanks have to switch at one point (you need 2) they should be able to tell when if not they should know after your first pull.
    7. If both tanks die at lets say 5% have a Paladin run out or someone else who can taunt, and kite him for a few seconds he doesn't move all too fast.

    In 10man we found Festergut harder.

    Whilst in 25man Rotface as it requires co-ordination from more people.

    Both weren't that challenging after a try or two learning.

    You'll need at least 8k dps with like 10 ppl just to make 25man Festergut enrage timer. So in a way he's a gear check. For the undergeared/pug, he'll be harder than rotface probably.

    true, but its a pretty static gear check, not a lot af movement.

    rotface ís a gear check (soft enrage through the time between mutations lowering rapidly as the fight goes on) with a lot of movement.

    pugs who can't down festergut will stand not the slightest chance against roftace.
    ...just another dream within a dream...
