Hyjal Trash:
I use the other tanks as bait, for every wave other than the few with only 4-6 mobs arriving by land.
1: One of the tanks stands in front of me, sometimes a few yards, sometimes only a pixil.
2: The wave aggros on him first, and he strafes to the and forward slightly.
3: Myself and the other tank watch the line of mobs for a change in direction to ensure that they all aggroed on him.
4: I run forward to get within Holy Wrath distance and begin casting it
4b: If there are abombs in the wave, the other tank also runs forward and tags 2 before my Holy Wrath finishes.
5: My Holy Wrath hits the entire line of mobs approximately the same time (they are generally in a line across my screen), and I yank them all to me, laying a consecrate just before the first one gets to me.
6: If there are any abombs, the other 2 tanks pick up 1-2 each (if they can, sometimes they have trouble getting them off me), otherwise they go after the casters and leave the rest to me.
- I use Avenging Wrath frequently throughout the night, almost every cooldown, and my AoEers know they can open up sooner when they see my wings.
- I don't use Exorcism Avenger's Shield on the pull, saving them for if I loose a target to single-dps, I taunt it back and nail it with Exorcism + Judgement of Righeousness. Avenger's Shield is normally only used against Infernals and Gargoyles, before I get in melee with them.
- One of the Gargoyle waves, they drop down the first tower on the Horde side, and hover at the same level as the archer's ledge. I take advantage of this and run up the tower and Avenging Wrath + Holy Wrath them, normally catching them all, then I run off and back through the encampment to pull them down to the ground in a group.
- The first wave of Kal'Rogal trash, our warrior typically does not have enough rage for spell reflect, so our ret pally runs out front ahead of us, waits for the first round of casting, and bubbles, taking the first round of shadowbolts without issue. The rogues, mages, and other 2 tanks are generally onto the casters before they get a 2nd wave of shadowbolts off, so enough are stunned, CCed, or interrupted that the 2nd wave of shadowbolts isn't deadly to anyone.
- I burn 10 to 15 Free Action pots per clear (assuming no wipes), and have them macroed to also put out a raid warning when I use them, as well as when it fades. It has drastically improved my survivability in heavy abomb waves. I get all of them free from AoErs and healers that take it upon themselves in their own time to farm up the pots, and frequently have 30+ sitting in the mail. Self Preservation FTW!
(I am also starting to use them on Mother trash, since I am getting them in such large quantities)
