Tanking Bone Dragon at the Edge

[Dhex]

If you really wanna throw people off pull it south.

Really enjoying the posts telling the melee to just fight the skellies in the poison and "suck it up." I'm fully capable of doing this, but as I stand out in the poison fighting killing my skeleton (i've seen this strategy maybe twice on my data center,) I can't help but wonder "WHY are we doing this," and I've yet to see an answer.

So when the skeletons are spending 70% of their journey to the dragon in the purple goop and the alliance consists of mostly melee dps, I'd hate to be a healer at that point.... lol

Just keep the dragon in the middle. Last phase, people should respect which way the dragon is facing. Tanking him on the outer edge isn't the best thing in my opinion :P But to each his own.

In the Chaos server block we tank him at the edge with no problems.

It's really simple, as the MT:

Do you trust that the other 5 OT's arn't derp and can effectively grab the skeletons from healers and place them in the correct locations? Tank boss in center.

Do you have little faith and believe that some skeletons may die in the dumbest of places (like the center circle -_-)? Tank North.

All right then. Scenario 2: Tanking Vassagos; do you move them clockwise or anticlockwise when first fire pool spawns?

Any data centre variations? Balmung (which I believe is Aether) tanks them clockwise.

There hasn't been any real movement at all on the last handful of runs I've done. The Vassagos stay pretty much right where they start the whole time, and the tanks move just enough to keep themselves out of the fire.

I feel as long as the outcome of X Strategy gets you a victory ( without too much problems to get there), then I welcome all ways to beat anything .

Rawr!

Whatno.

Don't be silly, it's always group C that has to be contrary and ends up sucking. ALWAYS.

after reading the opinions...Is it me or It kinda seems like the north strategy is used when alliance is full of unskilled players.

Probably did about 30 CT runs.... always the middle, tanks always take the skeleton to the end platform.. and its smooth... only time i ever seen a wipe is when retarded dps don't realize they have comets and place them on behemoth's ass. *yeah im looking at you monks*
