Turn 5 TP issues

Hey guys, my coil group is currently progressing on turn 5 and we are doing well. however, i'm having some issues with tp as the main tank. I'm around 200-250 tp at the end of conflags. any one have any tips on how to conserve tp EFFICIENTLY throughout the fight?

as pld - you can use shield swipe if you want, stoneskin too. You'll get a huge amount of TP back during divebomb phase and you really shouldn't have to worry too much about threat.

Stop using weaponskills when you are low?

You shouldn't need to be spamming anything during conflags since your hate should be well established from the first phase and you should be stepping into conflags yourself allowing you to regen some TP as well.

I agreed with this

At this point, with full TP bar enmity combo, there no any DPS or Healer can steal enmity from you now unless you did wrong or you miss attack (wasted TP)

You must look at Threat Meter to judge if you gonna continue spam ROTH combo or stop and recover some TP

If you a MT , you should be inside conflags anyway. that shouyld give you a good while TP regen

Use flash more. Also yes if you stand in all the conflags you should be at nearly full tp the whole time.

If you have a bard tell them to sing a song for a little while.

Bad, bad tip :P Should not step into conflags as tank, too risky tbh, as it often screws up unless perfectly timed with death sentence. We killed twintania without making tank go into conflag, quite easy this way.

How exactly are you screwing this up? Go inside conflag with high hp and there is no risk here to speak of and your healers can save mana or help with killing the conflags since there is more risk missing the conflag timer and having it blow up than there ever is of a tank dying in conflag.

Not to mention standing around outside of conflag with infirmary on is a giant waste of healer resources.

Worst tip ever. Why would you need to time death sentence at all? All my healers do is watch out for death sentence, top tank up to full, adloquim (apologies for the wrong spelling) and pray hard. By stepping into the conflagration, they can save the time needed to pray hard, and heal everyone else!

Everyone have a different strategy. IF you are getting inside conflags that save some tp. If not in the divebomb phase you should get some tp fast there, make a brd cas paeon for a bit if is too much of a problem.

We could never get the timing right to line up the death sentences to be after the conflag consistently. So, in our guild, we just tank swap after each death sentence during conflag. Doing it this way also ensures we have lvl 3 lb going into snakes.

Two words: swap tanks. But hey, everyone has a different way. I tried both, and swapping tanks just make it so much easier, on healers aswell. And to the guy saying u need to pray hard, we don't need to pray as our tactic is consistent more or less ^^

Consistent until your offtank gets targeted by fireballs or worse, conflag.

There is good reason most don't tank swap during the conflag phase and to come in here and state stepping into conflag is poor advice is just silly.

We have timed Death Sentences during conflags now perfectly so there really is no reason NOT to go into conflags and save a Virus or some MP for the healers.

Also, TP issue is resolved. Honestly, I was just being an idiot. Pretty simple fix.

If your off tank is 2nd on threat like he should be he'll never get targeted by fireball or conflag (1st and 2nd on hate are never targeted).
