[DRAGON SOUL] Madness of Deathwing

So heroic Madness looks like fun

http://manaflask.com/en/guide/527 This is a text only guide.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGn2EHZAjSg This is a video (sorry for the swearing it's the only one I could find).

From what I can see it's a matter of more adds and using what has been made available to us with the yellow circle and such. Watch/read the guides and give your comments. Oh and don't let me forget about the 3 DPS on the blue platform trick at the beginning.

So after our first try, things to note:

DPS is not an issue. Put ranged on the parasite and melee on the tentacle thingy.
2 tanks makes it easier on the healers (we were 2 healing it though)
Without a SP it is easier to have the 2 tanks.
Keep the middle clear for parasite to drop and everyone needs to stay on their toes.
When the extra bloods come after bolt tank them away from the group so they can deal with the parasite first.

Anything else I should put here?

Perhaps three healers so we don't run out of saves?

Of course, if we end up with 2T and 3H that will be two fewer DPS which may cause other issues.

As for saves, there was only me with a fairly weak save of Hand of Sacrifice. Plus, I had taken the Clemency talent and was thoroughly confused about whether the damn thing was on cooldown or not since each "charge" of the spell has a separate cooldown. Sometimes they lined up fine with tentacles, other times not.

Looked to me that we had more than enough dps on our tries yesterday and I guess healing on the last platform will be very tough. My guess is that a good setup for us, assuming we can manage the impale, would be 1t 6d 3h.

[Moolly]

If we can find a DPS that can cope with the Impale yes, that set up would be good

Seems to me we found our optimal composition last night... 2T, 3H and 5D... so all we need to do now is sort out how we deal with the final phase.

Just need some saves and burst healing I think to help the tanks deal with the adds. Probably should have one H each concentrating on each tank and one H raid healing at that point. Very close to a kill imo.

Looks like a nice progress!!
I better see that Progression Pic this week

And we need to DPS those mini blobs down very fast in P2. They were really zooming at DW before we'd even scratched them.
