Each mob over the first adds a stack to the buff, and each stack increases the health and damage of all mobs within range by 10%. give it a short duration (say, 30 seconds) so that things don't immediately get easier with each mob you kill, and now you've got a situation where crowd control for small groups is nice but not essential, but crowd control for larger groups becomes much more critical.Aevenhttp://twentysilver.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4659326122793396570.post-17094076119307589572010-04-22T19:32:15.037+01:002010-04-22T19:32:15.037+01:00I was on my shadow priest doing Pit of Saron once ...I was on my shadow priest doing Pit of Saron once and the tank, a friend of mine, surprised me by giving me an assignment. <br /><br />"Shackle the top right flamecaster and mind control the valkyr lady please."<br /><br />I sputtered for a second and looked uneasily at my shackle button wondering if I even remembered how it worked but the pull went off flawlessly and those pulls had never been easier.

This is a group which is trivial to round up and AoE down. They don't even hit hard. One slight problem though: One of them has a special attack which reduces damage from all enemies within 15 yards by 90%. Kill it first? That will take forever. Tank it separately? Two tanks is excessive for a heroic. Sheep it and drag the easily moved group? Yes.<br /><br />DPS are the ones with CC, so they are the ones who need to be motivated. What better way than a mechanics which disproportionately hurts DPS?Klepsacovichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07915576683657376929noreply@blogger.com
