I tank a lot with other tanks on teamspeak all the time. And I hear this all the time
"Hang on, I can't find it"
/spiney plume explodes
Just wanted to make sure tanks are aware there is an enemy list on your UI with all the enemies on it. You can just find the SPiney Plume on the enemy list and click it on the enemy list to target the spiney plume, or w/e mob you are looking for.
Tab Target is a sure fired way to get a spiney plume killed, or someone else killed.
Yup, that's the best way to find it. Not sure why people don't use that list.
Actually, it's an aggro'd enemies list so if something has no aggro on you, it won't appear even if other members have it. Spiny, not sure since my memory is hazy, puts aggro on all members but only attracts to one with 100k aggro which is why it shows up in the list but when you run dungeons and have zero aggro on a mob, it won't show up.
To the poster below, that's why I said spiny is special case and pointed out it might not work with normal mobs.
True, but the spiny plume always shows up on that list regardless. Even if i don't have initial aggro on it, it will still show up on that list.
On fights like garuda, everything that spawns has agro on everybody instantly, and the spiney plume has 100,000 enmity on it's target which is why only provoke works to pick it up.
As a tank it's still the best way to find something because you probe with flash, circle of scorn, overpower etc.
