    What we do is have our paladin off tank, we found out that the 10 stacks build up rather slowly so we have the dps burn on raffle then (so paladin can grab hate at his own pace) when its time to nuke the ever living daylights out of the slugs we have everybody transfer damage onto that slug when it goes super and he HGs.

    I as the static warrior just handle the burst damage of swarm from raffle with inner beast and I can do it quite comfortably. On the third phase there's no tank swap required. Basically slug does a lot of constant damage which paladins are better at dealing with and raffle at that point does burst damage which warriors are better at dealing with.

    It depends on the group. If the group has high DPS and phaes the boss fast, it's harder to do the super slug method simply because you only have 1 lb when the super slug spawns.

    I see so a good way to guage which strat to use would be to see what lvl of LB we have going into P3. If we have LB2 then we can SuperSlug. If we only have an LB1 then Caster LB Burn should be the way to go?

    if you have lb 1 goin in final phase. just burn the boss and have OT hold slug. (just let LV build up to lb2 and melee LB boss)

    can you 1shot all slug w/ caster LB 1? never try it b4

    For enmity.

    But str does effect the other stats too.

    To be quite honest, enmity is kind of a joke in this game. The aim of sacrificing VIT for STR at end game has absolutely nothing to do with enmity.

    An increase to dps will increase enmity output.

    Lol I agree. It will increase it from "more than we need" to "more than we need".

    My point was that DPS is the main reason. Everything else is a residual effect.

    "I'm putting on STR Accessories in Turn 9 so I can generate more aggro" said no one ever.

    Nope, has to be LB2. If you LB1 them they'll get low and head to the slimes - a big NONO!
