Faction Champions! [Part 16]

We had trouble on the champs on normal, I can't remember but it took us at least a week to kill them. (Wrong tactics) At the start we had the tanks go Dps and try to nuke down a healer, but then our healers and casters got destroyed. So the next day we had a night of trying to nuke down a dps, which didn't go so well as someone would end up dying. Eventually we realised they could be taunted so me and Tank #2 switched back for some "tanking"

It was more like trying to keep a child under control in a toy shop! You could get their attention...for about 3 seconds before they go zipping off to annoy somebody. Stun after stun, taunt after taunt, it was awesome! My guild don't particularly like the fight, but I love it! We locked down 2 Dps and the rest worked on one of the healers. (I think this was pre-FoK Nerf) So we would try keep the two healers together and have Drake spam em. Sweet sweet victory was ours! AND WELL BLOODY DESERVED!

Next fight was a joke, The Twin Val'kyr or whatever you callem. We knew that we would have to change portals or something but we weren't sure. We decided the best way to learn was to just try it.

Fight Start!: We engage them, 3 Dps, A tank and a healer of each colour. We continue fighting them and one of them starts to cast Twins Pact. We just continued as normal but they healed up full. A while later, they cast it again and everyone goes to the opposite colour to Dps and Interupt it. We were all dark at this stage and everyone was damaging the light guy, the Dark guy started casting Dark Vortex but we ignored it. A few seconds later they were both dead.

A bit too easy, but that was it!

When we clicked the guy to continue, the Lich King came and spoke about something..
Then he threw us into the air and broke theground beneath us! We fell down into the Icey Depts and we walked cautiously ahead. Then, similarly to OBLIVION he just popped out of the ground, nothing to let us know he was there apart from a little yell.

A pretty simple fight, phase one he freezes the tank sometimes, doesn't hit *too* hard. (I bet my healers say diferently!) After 30 seconds or so he burrows underground and chases random people. Around the room there are clouds which, when stepped on, reduce your movement speed BUT if Anub hits them he stops for a moment and changes target. After a while P1 starts again until you hit 30%. This is where it gets interesting!

He life drains the whole raid based on their hp. If a dps is at full 20k health, he will heal Anub for around 2k per tick, but if he is at 10k its only 1k per tick, so we keep everyone at around 50% hp apart from the tank, pop heroism and nuke him down.

15 Badges is not bad! Not to mention I finally got a replacement for my Royal crest.
