Icecrown Citadel 3 - Gunship Battle

Post by Greylock »

Abilities

Ship Cannon

Cannon Blast
Launches a cannonball at the target. Inflicts 1000 Siege damage and generates 6 to 10 Heat. Instant

Incinerating Blast
Consumes all of the cannon's Heat to launch a massive ball of fire at the target. Inflicts 1000 Siege damage plus additional damage per point of Heat. Instant

Boarding Party/Gunner Tactics

All raid members who are assigned to the boarding party must ensure they have rocket packs ready to use. Melee are ideal choice for this assignment. Beging by spamming Cannon Blast targeting the axe throwers, this will damage the enemies along with the ship. Watch for the building heat which can be released for huge damage by using Incinerating Blast. The more heat you have built up before using this will increase damage, however filling the heat bar will result in over heating which is to be avoided.

Every 25% an enemy battle mage will cast "below zero" locking the Skybreakers cannons and exiting the players from them. At this point the assigned boarding party tanks must be first accross to tank Saurfang. The assigned healer must be right behind this tank along with the melee from the cannons. The ejected melees assignment is to take down the battle mage before Saurfangs Battle Fury stacks to high for the tank to survive. Once the battle mage is dead or the Battle fury stacks are too high all boarding party members must come back to the Skybreaker to either re-enter the cannons and recommence firing or wait 20secs for the Battle Fury stacks to wear off.

Defence Party Tactics

At intervals a portal will appear mid deck which will spawn adds. One of the mob types has a whirl wind ability hence why ranged are better at this role than melee. Another ability these mobs have is wounding strike so healers will need to compensate for this. When there are no enemy boarders to take care of ranged dps can help to take down Axe throwers. Throughout the encounter rocket strike target zones must be avoided to minimise raid damage.
