Invulns: Problems and Solutions

Side note:

Sometimes when responding to someone, a people will people just snip their entire quote like this:

...

Fair to a point, but I find I often use them in order to explicitly avoid learning scary mechanics.




Instead, can we just trim down the quote to what's being referenced instead of fully deleting it?
Considering replies are hours apart, fully snipping a long post (and then only replying to part of it) is making conversations on this forum difficult to follow.

I have to disagree there. Invulns never meant you don't need to learn mechanics, I'd even argue that you need to know every mechanic to use your invuln optimally.

Pretty much. When most high-end players talk about using invulns to cheese mechanics they are more often than not talking about the use of them to simplify complex or tightly timed mechanics.

Tankbuster that requires a tank swap in the middle to handle as intended? Invuln it and do the tanks swap at a more opportune time.
OT and DpS need to juggle a tether? Let the tank take all the damage from the tether with their invuln.
Stack mark on a Tank? Invuln it so everyone else can focus more on dps than stacking.

Tanks playing the ultimate wingman so everyone else can mack on Chadarnook.

I remember doing Chadarnook with double warrior and old holmgang's range didn't allow you to stand in the stack marker and still be in range to use it. So I asked my co-tank how he was gonna handle it...he simply stood in the marker alone and got blown up for the rest of the group, he was the real MVP.
