Question - KISS dealing with mobs mezzing the tank

What is the best way to deal with this? I did the Plane of War mission for the first time last night and kept getting mezzed on my SK. He has the AA to break it early but it was still lasting a few ticks and getting my chars killed. I tried searching the forums for this but found nothing.
 
1st I make sure I have a "secondary" tank (I've never had them mez more than 1 toon), I also use at least a Cleric merc, and maybe a melee or caster merc as they can't be mezzed, and are not subject to the effect of the catapult.
And unless you are AFKing the task, you can always switch to another char and start melee..... Ive also mezzed the chanter mobs while i wait for my tank break mez...

You could also make a holy to have the tank call for a rad cure (cures mez) if he gets mezed....If yu use EQBC...
 
generally speaking when I do this task I stay to the right along the wall, which limits the amount of mobs that can wander over you, and allows you to cherry pick the ones you want to kill... like the ones that are NOT enchanter goblins.

I also set up GINA triggers ( easy enough to do ingame audio or chatevents) to warn about the catapult, you get an e-mote 10 seconds before the hit. If you time your pulling right, you can move, engage and kill... before the next catapult comes (every 60 seconds) provided you have toons having issues with it.

If your crew is not overly hampered by the catapult, then obviously just bulling trough works... but I still keep to the right wall and look for piggies and minos. By the time you start running out of them you ought to be around near the named dudes and enraged =)
 
Radiant Cure will usually remove the mez. Not sure how to handle it will KISS though.

Meistro's solution is the best if you use eqbc, I never thought of that so on my cleric he casts radiant cure if his target is mezzed (my cleric doesn't dps)
 
I added a Mod to the Heal section for Kiss 9.0. I am not sure if it will be included yet, but the healers will be able to cure the MA/Tank if they get mezzed. It was an easy mod, so If it doesn't get included I will post it on the forums for everyone to add to kiss if they want.
