H:Garrosh End Phase 3

[skmage]

So our 10man guild is hitting a road block on Heroic Garrosh. We use a DK and Warrior tank combo. We keep getting him to 12%-20% on the last Empowered Whirling Corruption in phase 3 just before phase 4. When the last set of adds come out the raid falls apart. Can any other class besides a Monk successfully kite the adds? Or any suggestions to get past that?

Kill the adds

[Paulosio]

Be spread out when they the adds are coming in. Person the add spawns by picks it up. Kill em. Stun / root / snare them if possible so they aren't hitting people while they are killed.

Has the Death Knight tried glyph of Death and Decay? I know it isn't as great as throwing kegs, but it's worth a shot.

30sec CD for D&D and if the DK applied DoT's to slow them it would probably kill them which leads to a bigger issue.

If you mean around 12% before the first empowered whirl then your DPS is pretty good. Just kill the adds and you will easily get to P4 with 5-10 seconds left on the second empowered whirl.

When we first did it our DPS was low, so we killed the first set of adds and had to deal with the second empowered whirl. The second one is much more dangerous due to big despairs blowing up the raid, the second one was the one we ignored adds on.

We did exactly this with the same DK and warrior tank combo. Killed 1st set of adds, then handled MC and weapon and burned the boss before next AoE. Remeber that boss transitions at around 2.4% so you don't have to get him to 0 in order to deflect the 2nd AoE.

You will be much better off fine tuning earlier phases and learning how to kill or prevent that last set of adds. A clean transition is what gets you a progression kill on H garrosh.

I kited the very last set of adds that spawned for us around 10-15% during progress (Got to a point where they are barely spawning now though) as a Paladin Tank.
It's not like the monks do it for sure, cause you're basically just trying to do damage control and not get hit enough for them to get buffed while the rest of your team nukes the boss into Phase4.

I did have alot of help from a hunter trap and resto druid with Ursols+Typhoon

We've only hit P3 once, but were it not for a crap Desecrate which meant that the raid couldn't get back to Garrosh we would have gotten straight through to Phase 4.

We blew Heroism in Phase 2 to guarantee pushing to Phase 3 without Transition 2. This means that when the boss transitions, the raid are just free casting as it occurs after the 3rd unempowered WC.

With the DPS out of range of the boss for over 25-30 seconds and dealing with the MCs at range, without Heroism in P3 at all we still managed to get the boss to 6% before the 2nd EWC started, so he would have definitely gone down well before then.

We are 1 tank 2 healing the encounter for availability reasons, if we 2 tank 1 healed it we wouldn't need Heroism in P2. Don't know how many healers you are running with!

Can only say that it makes the fight after Transition 1 a total breeze and should guarantee a Phase 4 the next time we pass Transition 1 sub 25 energy which is pretty consistent at this stage.

For EWC, just kill the adds. As long as the raid is at max range, it doesn't hit for a ridiculous amount and a healer CD with a raid mit CD will make short work of it.
