Need to balance kill them

 

[saar]

If you look under my resources I have a balance macro

 

[saar]

You have to keep the mobs within 5% of each other but they get out of 5%, then a bunch of add spawn and the event bugs out you then have to drop the raid and re-get the raid because you can never win at that point.basically how the event goes is you have the one boss he's big you get him to 50% he then splits into two smaller at just slightly smaller now you have to start balance killing them down keeping them within 5%. Once those get to 50 then they split into 2 a piece and then after that once they get to 50 they turn into 2 a piece as well and then you get those to 50% and they split into 2 as well and then you can kill them

The problem is being 115. How do you balance them, H2H one hit is probably 5%+ damage. Riposte, criticals, etc..

 

[saar]

Shield and modrod stack ds and spam sit

 

[saar]

I've beaten all of them at 110, you can also make a heroic toon that's melee and run the balance on that toon, I had 4 running it

 

[saar]

If need help on any let me know

This guy did it with a side necro..

 

[deathlock]

Shield and modrod stack ds and spam sit

Will an sk work or a robe wearing class be better for this task?

 

[saar]

I did sk they get more ds stuff and put a bard with him. The necro orb would work since it doesn't crit but you can't use any ds or it will drop out of 5%

I downloaded the balance macro and how do I start it?

With something on the xtarget /mac balance and it will lock those, once the xtarget is empty it will end then lock all adds on you and then start it again

 

[saar]

It's set for 2% for keeping all mobs within

 

[deathlock]

Thanks for all the help!

I do it with an SK without damage shield and no damage tanking in primary. Just use a lower level SK pet to do all the damage while balancing.

Due to levels and damage shields, the only sure fire way to do it now is a necro. Our guild did all of Solteris a couple weeks back just to unlock shammy rez sticks with the OMM line. Bottom line, Necros get a reverse damage or equal damage output spell that allows them to balance all of it down in under 5 minutes. Rest of us stood around watching him do it from the front.

 

[saar]

make a couple 85 dps and use my balance mac and can beat it fast. other way is the remote sphere line from necros it doesnt crit and same dmg to all mobs in its location, the more nercos you have the better and faster it goes.

Honestly
just grab a necro
using thier low hp orbs
Will take a bit but
i was using the 95 orbs just fine
and kept them in balance, with a tank holding agro FACING AWAY from the boss(es) using wurmslayer and healing up said tank
easy peasy
