Also, remember to use Amplify Magic on your tanks and keep Curse of Weakness / Improved Demo Shout on Bloodlord to lessen the MS damage.

I tanked through the enrage when we first started ZG and I was at 5.4k HP buffed, 350ish Defense, and about 6k AC. It's doable, but it comes down to your healing corps.

Wow thanx for the great responses all.
The Amp magic and Curse of weakness is something that we've never done but I could definitely see how that helps.

Thanx for all the great ideas :)

Also I've said for ages that the spears were a LoS bug that was going to be fixed :V
For like a year we never used those. Then we get an x-server recruit who says in the raid one day, "Why do you guys do this the hard way?" Month later it gets nerfed.

Though I concur that sac'ing a couple rogue alts to beef him up to make it a more challenging fight is fun. Personally? I withhold heals until he dings about 3 times. Then I start smiting. <3

Ultimately yeah though, this is very much a "Do your healers suck?" fight as much as it is a "Fucking taunt plz" fight. If your healers haven't learned how to use /assist to watch for quick agro changes you'll have a much harder time. Far less deaths if you can land a pw:s or start a quick heal before Mandokir actually gets to the new target.

Reactive priests make me a sad panda. It's all about proactive healing.
