Foe Reaper 5000 changed??? Bugged? Huh???

[Deleted]

All of Foe Reapers attacks are considered aoe (cleave) and can't be blocked. This means for tanks who wield shields that the damage taken will be pretty bad, at enrage I think he hits me for 40k, which is alot.
As a Warrior I loathe this boss, since you can't block his attack you basicly find your self rage starved the entire fight, and holding aggro is near impossible.

run a few steps up the ramp in the suit, and use the knockback to knock them off the ramp, they got a long way to run

simple solution, gotta be creative

Hmmm we did it post patch more than once and no issues. I am tank so can't speak to adds besides none got up, so we must have a good dpser on adds.

OT but I thought it was odd that our heals fell off the boat on first rope phase and the DPS was lok rogue and Mage. We were able to kill her without a healer.

just ran deadmines at 40% boss hits 100% harder with every attack

The change that reduced the foe reapers health and increase the point that he enrages at seems to have made him a bit harder. The fight is also really brutal on Melee dps, especially during the enrage phase. The difference between having 2 dps that can largely keep dps when he over drivers and 2 melee that have to run away is huge at that point.

It's very very easy to control the adds down at the bottom if you know what you are doing.

I was afraid my first time in the prototype, but I found out I'm pretty good at it. I basically mash 1 and 3 like mad till my fingers burn, and then I mash harder. when the add rate increases, it's just a matter of swapping targets right as you knock the one in front back. nameplates helps.
