Rogues: SMG or Shotgun?

Greg Street‏@Ghostcrawler

@Alyndra1 To use FPS terms, the high auto+poison damage keeps rogues feeling like an SMG instead of a shotgun. Maybe time for a change?

 

------

I do see where he is coming from, with all that rapid bleed, poison and mastery proc damage we got these days. What do you all think? IS THERE ANYONE ELSE HERE!

25 Man Elegon Strategy

Elapsed — Sun, 01/20/2013 - 17:45

Welcome to our 25 Man's Elegon Strategy

 

This strat is broken down into multiple phases, and they will be listed below in order.

 

  • Phase 1 (Boss and big add)
  • Phase 2 (Orbs)
  • Phase 3 (Piliars and small adds)
  • Phase 4 (Final Phase and adds)

 

The order the fight proceeds is

 

  • P1
  • P2
  • P3
  • P1
  • P2
  • P3
  • P4

 

(Temp note: Boss Blueprints doesn't have Elegon yet and I will use their Al'Akir blueprint till they do. The numbers will denote the pillar and the circle in the center of the blueprint will denote the platform we fight Elegon on)

Phase 1

 

 

This is a bit of how like Phase 1 will look just after the pull of the fight. Tank #1 will do a countdown and pull the boss. Melee will move in to the side near the back leg (or mid of the body) and range will stack just barely on the platform right next to the computer Loremaster Cho activates. 

Main Abilities To Know

Materialize Protector - As the link says it's spawns a Celestial Protector that must be dealt with. The protector will occasionally cast Arcing Energy which applies Closed Circuit (cleanse needed to avoid25% reduced healing debuff. Is Magic) Upon reaching low health will begin to cast Stability Flux (healer Warning) and at death will cast Total Annihilation (damage reducing CDs helpful)

Tank Note: The Protector gains the Touch Of the Titans buff on the platform just as we do, Off the platform The Protector takes massively reduced damage. So upon reaching 15% hp or so you need to take them off the platform so that when they Annihilate us they don't have the 50% increased dmg buff

 

Touch Of The Titans - As the hover over says it increases the Damage you do and the Healing you recieve both by 50%! However there's a downside you will begin to stack the debuff Overcharged

Healer note: While the increase to healing recieved is a nice feature to have on everyone else. It serves little  purpose to have on you. With the strategy I lay out here you can simply stand just off the platform and be able to  reach EVERYONE including tanks and melee (presuming theyre in the right spot)

Overcharged - Every 5 seconds or so you're on the platform with Touch Of The Titans you will gain a stack of  Overcharged. it increses the damage you take by 5% PER STACK. This can be maintained by the healers for a  few stacks but should be cleared off every 7-10 stacks to alieviate healer's mana drain. Fortunately to get rid of ALL of your stacks you simply leave the platform for a second and come back on! 

Ranged DPS note: If you stand JUST on the edge of the platform (you'll have to play with it) you can simply jump to remove stacks. It seems that it thinks you've left the platform at the height of your jump and you will see youself turn  back to normal form for that split second

DPS Jobs

DPS in this phase will have 2 focuses for DPS The Celestial Protector is a focus and so is Elegon himself. Melee DPS will have a VERY rough time on this fight as you get to DPS Elegon very infrequently, However! your task is of the utmost importantce! You are tasked will killing the Protectors as they spawn. (as seen in blueprint #2) This will allow you to reset your stacks as you go out to kill him, and then move back in on the boss to DPS AS MUCH as you can before the next one spawns. 

Ranged: as long as melee isn't lacking that night you should be able to Tunnel vision on the boss for this phase.

Tanks: Possibly the most difficult job you two must swap the boss. At the start Tank #1 picks up boss and Tank #2 waits patiently off the platform until shortly before the add spawns. Tank#2 picks the boss up off Tank#1 so Tank#1 can pick up the Protector and drag it to the edge to be DPS'd down (see blueprint #2)

Healers: Stand outside the platform barely (or move in when the tank goes to pick up the add to keep range) and heal the raid and tanks. The tank on the boss will have a few things being done so make sure to keep him/her topped off. Also the MAGIC debuff Closed Circuit MUST BE CLEANSED as it reduces all healing taken by 25% to its target. Since it's applied to so few and so infrequently a priest's Mass Dispell is the best spell for the task.

 

 

At 85% The boss will tranition into Phase 2 (orb phase) When aproaching this if there is an add still up all DPS should focus him so that people can move into position for Phase 2

 

 

Phase 2 (orb phase)

 

 

Important Abilities To Know

Draw Power : Before each wave of orbs spawn this debuff will be applied once to Elegon. Aim to have at least 10 stacks by the final phase. 

Focus Power : This is the Energy orb you MUST DPS! Each wave of them will move faster from Elegon to the pilliars (blueprint #3 piliars are the Numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6)

Energy Charge : 1.47 million hp each Normal 25 mode.HEALER WARNING- Upon death will deal damage to the entire raid (roughly 10% hp but it scales with the number of stacks of Overcharged people have as well)

 

 

 

DPS Jobs - 

Melee: You will be split evenly (as best as possible) amongst the 6 orbs (as denoted by the symbols in blueprint#4 square, triangle, moon,star,diamond, and circle) When they first spawn if you stand near the middle orb on either side you can Cleave all 3 and the boss with your cleave abilities i.e. DK's and spread disseases to all of them. Then you move with your orb till it dies. Reset your stacks of Overcharged and move back into the boss ASAP

Ranged- stand on the edge of the platform in between piliars. i.e. if you're part of Trinagle a.k.a. Pilar 6 you should be between 5 and 6 roughly be in range of both the boss and your orb along with orb 5. Your Orb is of the utmost priority at this time. DPS elegon until the orbs spawn, kill your orb and if an orb near you needs help do whatever you can. Then turn back to the boss ASAP and repeat. Remember you will still have Overcharged and need to reset 7-10 stacks

Tanks - You're floating DPS in this phase as there is nothing for you to tank. You start just as the melee do and move to the orb that needs the most help on your side (you'll get a feeling for which one needs you the most) Reset your stacks once the orb dies and then return to DPS elegon as well

 

Healer Job - Heal, heal, heal and then heal some more. As with the ranged dps you should be between piliars off the platform healing everyone. Each time a single orb dies they do damage to the raid and you need to be ready to heal it up ASAP. Depending on the # of stacks of Overcharged a person has the more damage they will take from an orb death. 

IMPORTANT HEALER NOTE - After wave 4 of orbs there will be no new incomming damage for a little while. You will have time to use a Potion Of Focus. I find on my Holy Pally in 10 man I tend to use it on the 2nd time we reach this point (just before the final phase) 15k more mana than a standard mana pot so have them , love them, use them.

 

This phase in a nutshell is easy, follow your job based on above and kill 4 waves of orbs. When the 5th wave spawns ignore it and DPS Elegon until they reach the piliars. Melee needs to run off at this time (except if you have an ability to teleport you off the platform) and ranged needs to move off the moment DBM reports 6 seconds left. All DPS, Tanks, and healers MUST position themselves between 2 piliars to maximize abilities.

At this time the Platform under Elegon will vanish, leaving all who are left on it to fall to their dooms! and completely unavailable to Battle Res's.

 

Phase 3 (piliars and small adds)


Important Abilities To Know

Empyreal Focus - The piliars of which I spoke of earlier in this strategy and also denoted as numbers 1-6 in my blueprints. They each have 4.33 million HP, create a wall of blue fire out to the wall preventing movement through them without taking damage. They cannot de-activate until their partener piliar is brought to zero HP as well. Example 1 cannot de-activate until both it and 4 are brought to zero HP.

Cosmic Spark - These adds are occasionally shot out at players by Elegon. They each have 2.363 million HP. WARNING there will be a lightning circle that apears where the Spark will land on the ground. If you stand in it you will die or come very very close. In short don't stand in the Lightning. These adds should be cc'd until the tank on your side can pick them up. And will be dealth with at the end of this phase. NOTE: they can spawn unevenly spread so that one side could have them ALL so be prepared to kite them!

 

In phase 3 people all share the same jobs

 

  1. DPS piliars down to 0 (ranged if your where you should be you can DPS all 3 piliars on your side from next to the middle piliar)
  2. Stay out of Lightning Circles
  3. Kite adds until the piliars are down

Above in blueprint#5 you will see how people should be theoretically split. Melee on orb/piliars 2 and 5 will need to decide which side needs them most as attempts happen and decide which side to be on the next phase 2 or attempt.

 

 

 

 

Phase 3 completes with the platform returning (after all piliars are down, can take a few seconds or so for the floor to return) We then group up in one spot (green circle blueprint #6) and AOE the adds down. EVERYONE stacks except for the tank who picks up the boss, as anyone can have agro on them and they need to die quickly. EXCEPT ON FINAL PHASE AS WILL BE NOTED BELOW

 

Phase 1,2,3 Happen again in order (2nd phase 1,2 transition is at 50%)

After The floor returns in the second Phase 3, The final phase will begin.

Phase 4

Important Abilities To Know

Radianting Energies - This has 2 areas in which it effects.

On the Platform : people will be taking pulses of damage every second Damage reducing and healing CDs will be  needed as the raids Overcharge increases

Off The Platform : Being a DPS or Healer you can die in a second of being Off the platform depending on your  Overcharge stacks. Just stay on the boss. Tanks will have to make it quick to reset stacks because this will hurt and   your healer wont have much mana to help you with

 

 

Upon the return of the floor the raid will stack on the bosses ass (see Blueprint #7) and the DPS will kill all of the small adds AS FAST as possible. A tank #1 will have the boss, Tank #2 will have the adds.

DPS Jobs - ADDS > Elegon just that easy, forget your stacks exist and just stand there and tunnel Vision on the adds then NUKE THE BOSS!

Hero Note: Hero should be used once the adds go down. Don't wait for it to be called, just hit it once the adds are all dead.

Tank Jobs - You have a messy one here but it's your time to shine! Tank #1 grab Elegon after the second Piliar phase Tank #2 grab the adds on the bosses ass and help the DPS nuke them. Then Tank #2 reset your stacks AS QUICKLY as humanly possible and get back to taunt off Elegon so Tank #1 can do the same. Just keep trading until the boss dies.

Healer Jobs - I must say, this will be the hardest you've ever pushed. You'll probably be close to 30-40% mana or less and damage will be ever increasing but you must rotate CD's and heal until you die or Elegon does. Since everyone will stack in the same spot the entire raid will be increasing stacks of Overcharge and damage will only get worse from the Radating Energies. You can do it!

 

If you did both Phase 2's correctly Elegon will have 10 Stacks of the Draw Power debuff, increasing the damage he takes by 100% (ignore what wowhead says it's 10% each stack) After you get the adds down pop hero and blow up the boss. Use every CD you can to increase your dps and even just to survive.

 

Asuming you did everything here correctly you will be looking at a chest with gear in it, Congrats on Killing Elegon!
