Of Tanking and WoD

[EdwinLi]

The EU way for WoD seems to be this exactly, except for Cerberus. Cerberus goes:

A - Adds
B - Belly(get eaten)
C - Chains/MT

Unless, of course, you get that one person that facepulls everything and locks people out of the rooms... or the tank fighting for boss control... or the tank lack of control on trash rooms...

All DPS method seems to be the fastest of the strategies I've seen so far.

All DPS go into Cerb while all Tanks and Healers stay out side to tank and heal against Cerb and Adds. (1 healer can go in to keep the Unknowns from causing issues if they want but normally only 1 or 0 DPS players would die from a Unknown without a healer)

If the DPS know how to effectively DPS in Cerb belly then Cerb boss fight can be done in matter of 1 minute or less.

I don't like this strategy due to all the time DPS waste waiting to get small, waiting to get eaten, and waiting to zone in and out. People say it's faster, but it doesn't make any sense to be faster with so much DPS time lost.

It mostly faster because it causes Cerb to fall into his Awakening state which each time he falls he loses 30% of his HP. His Stomach walls have low HP and Defense so they're easy to burn down fast which would cause him to lose 30% of his HP easily.

If all DPS know can burn through Cerbs insides fast enough then he can lose that 30% HP within a easy 10 to 15 seconds.

Part of the speed is to remember Cerb's spit pattern being Phase 1 Cerb place the Orb on 1 person and then Spit the Purple stuff after and in Phase 2 he Spits the Purple Stuff 1st then place the Orb 2nd.
