Conclave - 10m Strat Tips

[wusamata]

Hey all,

So we started working on Conclave last night and here is the general rundown of our set-up:

1tank, 1 healer, 4dps at life
1tank, 1 healer at frost
1dps and 1 healer at wind

at 80 energy, everyone at life and frost swap, the dps from wind goes to frost.
after ultimate, the wind dps goes back right away, then at about 10 energy the remain dps goes back to life.

Repeat at 80 energy again.

So, the issue that we seem to have come across is that:

1) the third ultimate messing us up in the kill phase window
2) the wind has a bit too much health left when we initiate the kill phase on life (about 2.2m left, which in turn we get screwed by #1 when trying to burn him)

Any thoughts/suggestions or tweaks we can make to this strat?

Thanks

We're using the same setup as you do, aswell as pretty much the same tactic. If needed we have one of the Life DPS switch to Air after the second ultimate. We'll have Air down to about 5-10% before "burning down" Life while slowly pushing down Air to keep them in phase. after that you'll have roughly a minute to jump over to Frost and blow BL/Hero/TW to bring him down. It's all about timing Life and Air to go down simultaneously, if you do this you'll have no problem taking down Frost even if he's almost full health.

Only thing I can think that might help by the information given is to move 1 dps from Life to Wind.

What we do is that we have enough dps at life to deal with the adds (usually one tank and two ranged dps) and a healer obviously, a tank and a healer at frost and the rest of the dps and one healer at wind, at the first switch the air guy will be almost dead (might even have to stop early!). After the part where all the dps is on the frost guy all of them will go to life and alternate back and forth between frost and life until it's time to put them out of their misery, if you did this well the healer still at air can just kill him off while everyone else deals with frost+life.

Why are you even talking about a kill phase window? All you have to do is jump from Frost to Life and back depending on what is happening. Adds up -> go Life ; Ultimate -> go Frost. If this happens at the point where they are really low, do it anyway. This fight is just the same cycle over and over till all 3 are dead. No strategy needed tbh.

What we do is have a ranged DPS go Air instead of Life after the second Ultimate. Last night we didn't even use BL lol. All 3 died at around the same time and we don't have a BL kill phase at all.

By the way, people need to stop calling this boss "conclave", it's called "conclave of wind" so the best abbreviation is clearly "cow", it's also a hell of a lot more fun.
