For the most part, Wrath has been extremely clean with regards to bugged encounters. When we downed putricide, we lost a couple attempts to him not spawning enough slime initially, but with some better DPS, we really wouldn’t have needed the abom to slow the adds.

The only real bugs we’ve seen in ICC has been minor, and swiftly corrected. Those being Marrowgar doing 25 man damage on 10 man, and Rotface using the 25 man infection rate on 10 man. Both were fixed within the raid lockout of the release of that boss. Beyond that, the only other hotfixes have been to correct exploits such as typhooning blood beasts off the side.

The fights in the plagueworks are probably overtuned for easy mode. This means that they’ll probably be nerfed soon, however, the bugs have been relatively minor compared to what Blizzard’s released in the past.

Got really hectic at 30%, but hectic is fun!

Didn’t have as much luck with Putricide, but I’m thinking 2 healers is the way to go on this one. And hopefully more than one ranged dps for our attempts next week.

Actually in our 25 man tonight, we started insta-cleansing the poisons at 30%, and it also worke well for us

It did get hectic as normal post 30%, but it felt much easier than waiting on cleanses I highly recommend trying it!

Hrm…we didn’t have to misdirect the big ooze into the tanks we used last night (druid/DK respectively). However, now that I think about it I bet that is because Brade was able to hold agro with feral faiere fire, and our DK was able to hold agro via diseases. A warrior really only had what? heroic throw and taunt? Since he can’t be up there building melee threat on the ooze. You run with a paladin tank too, right? They might be good kiters w/ pursuit of justice more ranged attacks, but I bet would run out of mana pretty quickly.

However, in looking back, I think the DK/Druid had it so easy to hold threat was because of their ranged threat abilities (in addition to taunt) are pretty good. I had never really considered that aspect of it.

Maybe try using a different tank on the adds, and see if that frees up your hunter and/or makes it easier for your add tank to hold threat?

I’ve heard of others/seen vids where they cleansed their infections more quickly to get rid of the healing debuff. That debuff got quite a few of our squishier dps killed as they waited near the big ooze for a cleanse and got hit by the dot, the aura, and a wayward spray or slime pool. I do intend to try their cleanse-quick strat tonight, but my raid will have to keep in mind the number of oozes we have up at a given time.
