Once you use the item can you cancel the effect?

We were thinking of using it to dispel Garrote in the Moroes fights, and then canceling the effect. If you have to sit for 1 min though it won't be very practical :/

That seems rather insanely wasteful, don't you think?

On a similar note, does anyone know if the [Luffa] works?

Would not a preemptive [Recipe: Limited Invulnerability Potion] be a better choice overall? They are slightly annoying to farm but on an order of magnitude easier than the flasks.

EDIT: I gather [Luffa] works great, although mine didn't survive one of my great bank purges. Sure, I keep the Slumber Sand but noooo, the Luffa I don't need.

Yes you can click the flask off. Yes [Luffa] works on it. Or bring a paladin and bop it off someone who can't take the hit. Anyone with 9k+ hp can be healed easily.

It does work on the Garrote, since it is a bleed effect. Also BoP (from a Pally) and Stoneform work well.

Using the flask would work, but it is a very expensive solution.

Luffa doesn't work guaranteed though. It does have a sizable chance to do nothing.

If you have a decent shadow priest in your raid, VE will nullify the effect from half your raid, or at least help heal the effect greatly. (we can shackle too <3)

We are horde so no paladins have leveled yet, our highest paladin is level 66.

Sadly, most of my guild have sold our luffas. This means that the only real solution to removing the Garrote effect seems to be flask of petrification.

If you use a potion of invulnerability before you get Garrote will it still get applied? Either way from what I hear it doesn't remove the debuff.

I think HoT stack cycling is going to be one of the more efficient ways of dealing with the garrote. It's what, 1000 damage every 3 seconds? Having 2 healers throwing HoT's on garrote victims should be enough, and one dedicated tank healer, or 2 if you have 4 healers in the raid. Moroes does not hit particularly hard.

I will say one thing though, for our experience with Moroes. It appeared that he targetted me for garotte about 4 times, and none of them stuck. I neglected to check my combat log to see why that was though, and after the fight, it had been pushed off due to the spam from killing the last 2 adds.
