There's one note I want to make about our Rotface.
I think we've been calling the run the fuck away when the Goo Explosion happens a bit too soon. Cause it's a "Shadow Crash" it hits where you were when you were targetted. Calling it early and having everyone randomly running around means the Crash happens all over the place. We should probably wait and watch for the animation, as soon as the "goo" is seen launched up in the air, then we run. Then we know exactly where it is gonna land.
Putricide, well here's the gist of the fight from the info trickling out... (appears not bugged, but working as intended, 1 Abom active at a time only)
Phase 1 (to 80%):
Slime pools spawn, Abomination has to eat them. Gas Clouds follow someone and explode, range kite and kill. Volatile Ooze follow someone and explodes, damage is split with all it hits, melee kill it before reaches target (target is rooted). 1 Abomination (the OT of the fight that's only gonna OT in P3) will be eating slimes, slowing adds.
Phase 2 (to 35%):
All of the above, plus, Choking Gas Clouds to not stand in, they explode. Malleable Goo that's another Shadow Crash to not stand under.
Phase 3:
No more adds, but no more Abomination either. Like Vashj, eventually room will be covered. Gains new abilty of Mutated Plague: http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=72747 Which also causes the tank to do aoe damage to everyone around, it doubles with each stack (200 to 400 to 800 etc). If the debuff falls off though, Putricide heals. So this is a bit of a reverse of the whole tank switching due to debuffs we've been seeing. We want to keep the debuffs on tanks, but we don't want to one tank taking all the stacks which would increase damage exponentially. Been said that it's done like Tank 1 takes it for 3 stacks, runs away from raid to not hurt us. Tank 2 take 3 stacks, runs way. Tank 1 takes it back before his stacks wear off and take it to 5 stacks, repeat, etc. Kill before overwhelmed. In a sense, like Iron Council hard mode a bit, a tank death the wrong time means Putricide heals and the fight is over for us.
I'm sorry I had to bail early last night...well not really sorry, because I had to work, while you guys were killing internet dragons.
I'm definitely not going to be able to make tonight. I have to entertain 10 clients at a dinner and won't be home till about 8:30 ST, at the absolute earliest.
Copying and pasting what I posted in the Rotface page.
Things we learned:
* Small Oozes are not tauntable * They have a 50K threat (?) lead on the person who got the Mutated Infection off, up to them to kite it to the other oozes * Big Oozes are tauntable * We decided on a Hunter (Lumi) ranged tank/kiter for the oozes * The small ooze should be combined into the big oozes asap * Watch for rockets (oozes)
Things other people have reported:
* The cleanser of Mutated Infection *may* actually be the one that gets the threat. This has not been totally confirmed though. But would make that pally OT kiter viable. Or, we could have a cleanser follow Lumi around and it'd drag the ooze right to them. Insta-cleansing does mean less movement (more idiot proofing), less of a dot going around. There is the small ooze aura happening while it's travelling through the raid, but that's probably less of a hassle than one guy going to the Big Ooze and soaking that massive aura damage. If this all proves to be true anyways.
Festergut is confirmed to have a 5 min enrage, for that massive dps check, 7.5K avg dps per person.
Professor Putricide is bugged and unkillable on 25 man. So yea, unless a hotfix happens between now and raid timez. But he is working perfectly fine on the 10 mans.
Also, Precious and Stinky, they have a shout that calls other mobs (trash) to them. If they respawn (prolly do), we'd want to tank them further way, like middle or bottom of stairs, unless we want extra guests.
Around 25/30% we noticed he would spawn infections at a crazy rate. We had good DPS so im not sure how long into the fight it was, but it seemed right around that time we would get overwhelmed. (this is 10m version)
I've sent a message to a few folks. I'll be going to a charity party and cruise to cozumel and will not be back online until next Wed. Good luck and get Shihli his Axe!
I'm quite sad I'll be missing rotface/festergut. Tonight's party was last minute and I hoped to raid from the hotel.
From tonights fight, if you get infected mutation, here's a few things to keep in mind:
be careful not to run through the spray to get to the big ooze
run so that you are AHEAD of the big ooze
don't run too far out to edge -- you may become too far away for heals or die to ooze on your way out
watch for spray as you're running back into the raid
Big ooze kiter - try not to get too far away from the middle -- this will limit how long you're in ooze if it drops on you and you won't go out of range of healers if you happen to become the infected target.
Although slime spray doesn't do a lot of total damage on this fight, it was often just enough to kill folks.
Hope everyone has fun with these new bosses. (I'll miss being there)

Worth a test?

A bit more on Rotface. Small
saedo — Wed, 01/06/2010 - 11:50A bit more on Rotface.
Small Ooze, untauntable, but root/snare/etc/able. Big Ooze, tauntable, but not root/snare/etc/able. See how that flips around?
Also, there is confirmed to be a soft enrage in that more oozes spawn faster as the fight goes longer.
