Offtank Garuda Ex (Warrior Help)

[CoryJason]

So I'm having difficulty grabbing the spiny and Chirada for the tornado phase.

I'll tell you what I've been doing and hopefully you could tell me what I should do instead:

Berserk, tomahawk chirada. Because of the globals there's like nothing I can do in order to grab the spiny any faster, so during that 1.5 secs or whatever, a healer grabs agro, likely more than any tomahawk I could throw, so I feel forced to provoke tomahawk and try to get them together. By this time the dps is already destroying chirada and bards take agro because I'm either flashing or overpowering after the tomahawk on the spiny. If I try to do a butcher's combo on one, it takes forever so the other mob runs away. I can try infuriate steel cyclone I guess, but because of the game's global cooldown situation I feel panicked to do anything else but the two tomahawks and flash/overpower.

I currently have relic (not +1), ilvl 83 average, with all 30 points into VIT.

Thank you

im having the exact same problem.... it was supposed to be provoke on spiny and tomahawk on either sisters but aggro is flying off just like that. i dont know if someone can help but this seems to screw the whole fight if tanks cant maintain aggro.

Someone in my FC told me that we just let the spiny agro a healer and the OT takes it when there's 2 stacks. Chirada then dies and everyone goes to kill Suprana. Also I guess we're to save our provokes for the spiny and let the MT tank both sup and Garuda until sup dies. But what worries me is the prolonged double ww and melee exposure to it. I'll try it but that sounds like a lot of work on the healers and the MT.

U are doing it wrong, what I'll tell u will also apply to titan extreme (grabbing adds).
1.your pt destroys spiny and all move inside bubble. YOU Wii heavy swing + skull sunder Garuda while inide bubble she will than disappear.
2. Garuda will respawn with sisters so immediately hit chirada with Butchers Block(will be glowing as part of combo u started while inside spiny bubble). Immediately voke spiny and overpower (should hit chirada as well).
3. Ur enemy will be extremely high that u should have no issues, just move to position and dps chirada.
- u can pop berserk before BB as well.

Alright but what I've been told to do is only kill the spiny when garuda disappears, which gives me no real time to prep a BB for chirada. Are there any tells to when we should kill the spiny?

This can definitely work. If for some reason you cant time your BB combo, do what your FC suggested. Work on the sister you have been assigned and let Spinny move to whomever it wants (usually MT/healer). Provoke Spinny when they hit 2 stacks. Jump on MT's sister right away and work on killing her. If dps is good enough you might just have to deal with 1-2 WW.

I wasn't very clear, spiny is already DEAD, when it dies you move inside the bubble, while inside bubble Garuda will spawn and begin casting "mistral Shrik" or w/e the attack is call.
U will start your combo while she is CASTING that attack, (stay near edge of bubble so u can hit her) u should be able to land "Heavy Swing+Skull Sunder" before the attack hits and she disappears. than just follow what i said earlier.

[CoryJason]

Thank you very much Valkyriel I'll try that. Thank you for your input too Joe.

[Lemon8or]

In the case you can't hit garuda safely when she starts casting Minstral Shriek, use Heavy Swing right when she lands again, before sisters spawn then skull sunder on chirada, butcher's block chirada, provoke spiny, tomahawk spiny and overpower will secure it.

You don't need to pick up spiny at the start of tornado phase. Just let it build 2 stacks and then voke it.
