notes on prince

good times last night on prince even though we didn't down him.. I liked the fact that we were able to run through it and observe the fight a number of times and learn from our mistakes. Hopefully next time i can be on vent for the action.


seems like the biggest thing is making it through phase 2. Jim has some good points on his last post about this. Seems to me, all healing should be on jutah on phase 2 and nobody else... from what i can see, no ranged dps should ever need healing until phase 3 .. and even then, the axes don't hit too hard.

anyway, the main reason for my post is to talk about infernal placement, and a few things we can do. We saw a lot of infernal placements last night, and i don't think any of them were impossible. Here are a few tips based on what i learned and observations:
  1. make sure you have your camera angle zoomed out as far as possible to give you the widest angle of view.
  2. run to X (angelo). as soon as you know enfeeble is going to pop, run to x. Don't run past X, that is just wasting time. I make sure i stand at far enough distance so that you'll be ok where I am.
  3. if it looks like melee is going to be trapped by an infernal, don't wait until enfeeble to see if you can make it out. Run to X, if you don't take any damage, you know you have a safe path, otherwise wait until jutah repositions him. it's better to miss some dps time because you ran out while you were at full health, than be trapped and face certain deathl.
  4. hang on the edge of the AOE. as X, i always like to find the edge and hang there, i've yet to see 2 AOE rings overlap, so hanging on the edge of 1 makes it pretty likely that you'll be ok if one lands on the other side.
