    Tanks aren't supposed to provoke Oppressor 0.5. That's a very sloppy method that pulls both bosses close to each other if you don't grab insta-aggro. Instead:


    - Main Tank tanks the Oppressor to the south.
    - When you hear the 0.5 alarm you Tank swap. The Off Tank is now on the original Oppressor.
    - The Main Tank, no longer tanking Oppressor, runs to the north where Oppressor 0.5 will spawn.
    - Oppressor 0.5's initial aggro is based on the original Oppressor's aggro when the alarm sounded. Thus he'll run straight for the Main Tank.


    No need to grab snap-aggro, no bosses running around everywhere, and the Tank swap happens while everyone is standing still.

    Even better, just tank Oppressor where he stands so you don't mess up your DPS' openers.

    MT runs south after the provoke, 0.5 will follow them.

    I know all that.

    But do you think the DF randoms know or care?
    There are freaking DRKs with no provoke to begin with.......
