Today was my first time ever tanking the last boss in h sethekk. I had roughly 14.7k life buffef and had a druid healing me. We didn't wipe at all and this is what I did. Instead of tanking him in the room where he spawns, tank him in the room right before it. Had a hunter md to me and every party membwer was stacked on me, out of los. Frontload as much threat as u can and just tank. When he ports for the explosion, all party members run behind the doorway. After explosion misses dps waits for me to pick up aggro (through judge righteousness and avengers shield) the one tricky thing is when he polys, typically I let him cast poly and just cleanse his target asap. U should be first on threat always. I had 300 or so spelldamage so this might be situational. If for some reason aggro doesn't comwe back to u, then rd foloowed by judge seal of righteous ness and maybe even AS. U should get threat back. if u focus on being the only threat producer immediatlwey after the explosion, u should be fine. I highly recommend tanking him in the room before his. I really feel that it made this heroic fight quite simple. Either that or I'm just uber tank lol (prolly not). I really feel that having the tank pay attention to cleansing poly alleviates lots of duties for both dps and healers. Its a simple target of target plus hotkey. Smile

So this one time when I was about to bone my girlfriend... there was this heroic MGT, and we failed... and then she said there was no way.

when i say other room i mean corridor. The farthest away from the room anyone should ever be is the corner adjacent to the corridor. Its jsut a matter of jumping to the other side of the corridor corner when he beings to cast explosion. Well, at least thats how it worked for me.

My team just did this yesterday, since it was the daily.

Tankadin
arc/fire mage
resto sham
BM hunter
SL/SL lock

We had trouble the first time, but then the warlock had the bright idea to stack next to a pillar. This let us walk about 3 yards to the right to get out of LoS, and I just waited until he was in melee or close to taunt.

Smooth sailing, as much as that boss ever is, I suppose.

I really enjoy how I don't need the boss in my LOS to taunt him Very Happy

Have him targeted before the explosion to taunt earlier.

I always taunt him to get him back and have never had a problem.

People die to this boss though, it's just the nature of it.
