Random aside: was anyone else dissapointed the first time they killed the Emps and the scarab design on the middle of the floor didn't turn into a huge elevator down to C'thun? With just Ouro through that exit door? That would have Sooooooooooooo cool.

The little bugs in the spider wing are not bad as long as they aren't all on 1 person. Just split them up.. hunters, paladins, shamans, warriors all can tank. Have everyone plunk a bit then drop the ae's. Priest Holy Nova can heal the damage.

we found on the spitters that upon pulling, the poison volley is directed at one person just like the lava surgers will charge to one person over and over again.

Fun trick is to put that person out of line of sight. The poison volley fails. (He turns and does the shooting animation, but nothing happens).

Go go poor scripting!

uhm... the big green ones charge the farthest person from them that is still on their aggro list. The lasso spiders do the same with their web. You can limit these abilities with LoS; they'll target the farthest person for a half second, do nothing, then turn back to their tank.

The skitterers, we do that a bit different. We get a tank to put whatever thorn-like trinkets he has on (and druid thorns), get him to pull un-PW:shielded (to get rage). Have every single healer use small heals on him so that no one healer has high aggro, then after enough time for about 8 to 10 demo shouts, put out some light AE from the mages/hunters/locks. In about 15 seconds they'll all be dead with noone taking any damage but the warrior.

Lava surgers allways surge the person farthest away but not farther than x.

Three words: Force Reactive Disk

Thorns/Essence of Pure Shit/Force Reactive Disk...Oh god I'm going to be paying repair bills....

edited to say: Delete me.

We had a string one night where the small patrolling spiders would be split up when we pulled them. Needless to say, they are chained, and the rest of their friends waiting across the room brought more friends and well... you get the idea.

Every time we do double gargoyle packs it makes me extremely nervous and I hate them for it. This might also have to do with the fact that on what was going to be our first Noth kill the patrolling gargoyle respawned, flew through the slime wall and proceeded to AE us all down. There were so many spits on that gargoyle when we cleared back.

LOS pull / pet pull the spider packs. Usually we kill the Venom Stalkers first (nasty green big ones with the 2500/tick poison charge DOT), then followed by the healing curse ones. We usually leave the Scorpion-esque ones until last, since all they do is move people around. Slightly disorientating, but not deadly.

One word: paladin. You'd be surprised how hard it is to pull aggro AoEing off a paladin once they get going.
