WP Second Boss: Does it matter in what order you kill the adds?

[Bahram]

One if the times I got targeted I did this and when I ran past the healer with it it aaoed and killed the healer.

I mean, running away is doing it right but people in front of the boss when he does his attack will get hit it seems. The best course of action is, obviously, to try to kite it away from and not through people if you can help it. Likewise, people should try to stand away from the boss when he's being kited.

I am amazed no one mentioned this yet but: why does noone seem to use the potions removing status alignments? Spine/echo drops are a must have for any healer, the rest is not so critical.

Honestly, I don't think it's been an issue for me yet. Surecast > Esuna usually does the trick. I haven't been silenced/locked so long that it caused the pt to die due to lack of heals going out.

The Order I was Trained to was:
Blue (heals boss)
White (Heavies you, making it impossible for you to run away when targeted)
Purple (Paralyzes you, almost as bad as Heavy)
Yellow (Shields boss)
Green (Stupid Windburn...)

Esuna and Leech are both good for removing Paralyze and Heavy, although Dragoons can get away from Heavy with Elusive Jump.

instant potion pop still beats having to surecast -> esuna. pop the spine drop and don't even stop healing your teammates

the time between every interrupt is enough time to remove it, and sadly but no most of the healer out there does not have problem with the purple paralize, the amount of pt demand kill purple 2nd is less than you think

and I will not get into the control pudding, it is tank job, kill pudding is DD job, and even WHM can holy those pudding but I will not get into that either

note: when your cast get interrupt, you can press it again and the skill will use and the paralize will go away...like you know...magical remove and there is enough time to heal the tank between every interrupt, the interupt is repeat but not continues every second

So many things wrong here. First, yes it CAN happen often. I've been paralyzed as a healer, tried to Esuna ZAP, tried to Esuna ZAP. Multiple times in a row, it's random. Second, you should always carry spine drops to remove it since it's more reliable than a cast time spell. Third, If the boss targets the healer, or either DD for that matter, HE CANNOT HOLD IT OR THE ADDS. It will chase them for a good 15 seconds and the tank can do NOTHING.

Lastly, to your edit. No, as I said above, you can not always do that. Paralyze is TWO debuffs. The main one, and the one that actually randomly paralyzes you and lasts about 1-2 seconds.

I've been suspecting it's not random, but deliberately kicks in the moment you try to do something. Standing still? no proc. Trying to run? ZAP Trying to cast? ZAP

Randomness, always plotting to overthrow you since 1991.

And yeesh, I wonder if people don't trust me spamming Flash and Circle of Scorn (so pretty), but so many DPS I see need to be commanded to AoE. Going to be painful getting that Darklight Shield. ><

I don't know how to do WP properly. When I tank the second boss I just run around and flash and overpower and tank all the adds and the boss while someone aoes the boss, the adds die, then we run like chicken's with their heads chopped off and do it again. Then the boss dies. If someone gets hit it's usually me and I still have >50% hp left after the aoe the boss does, it doesn't 1 shot the tank.

[Herase]

Blue heals.
Purple paralyzes.
White slows.
Green puts a DoT.
Yellow puts a shield on the boss.

Yeah that's it, normal do always blue, white, purple, then what evers left. The slow given by the white slime can be very dangerous, especially when people deiced to run at the last min from boss. Tbh load of time i told poeple about the whit but they say you lying haha, knew i wasnt chatting rubbish

[RVT]

If your dps is good, then you can aoe them easily. If not, do them by order to mitigate damage and save time.
