    Even if the Lich King gwts killed, he isn't the true enemy. There are still many locations not added to WoW that can be made as xpaks, such as the Maelstrom, the Twisting Nether where Sargeras rests, The Emerald Dream and the Emerald Nightmare, and possibly Argus, the draenei/eredar homeworld that was overrun by the Burning Legion.

    Jumping will work for removing the stacking debuff but its important to note the way it stacks and dispells. For every second spent standing still you will gain one stack. Then for every second spent moving you will dispell a stack. If you continuously move you'll never have the debuff but if you get rooted you may need to move around rather than jump to remove it more efficiently.

    Yogg-Saron is the final boss in Ulduar. Algalon is an optional, bonus boss. Regardless of difficulty, Yogg-Saron is the "final boss".

  • @Anonymiter
    @Anonymiter 15 років тому

    "Frozen Blows" is a periodic buff that the boss will cast on himself. It cannot be dispelled from him for its 20 second duration. Although the physical dmg dealt by Hodir is reduced, Cooldowns should be used on the tank if they do not have a sufficient amount of frost resist.

  • @Anonymiter
    @Anonymiter 15 років тому +1

    For this fight I would discourage any attempts to spread out your raid members. The "Freeze" ability that he uses only hits for around 6k and only roots targets to the ground. It does not causes 110% of the targets HP in dmg or temporarily stun the target.
    The only concern is that players will be unable to remove the stacking debuff "Biting Cold" by moving. However, he mentioned that the rooting portion can be dispelled several ways, with Mass Dispel probably being the most efficient.

    @9enix9 15 років тому

    Apart from the tanks, frost resistance isn't required.
    If you use 2 tanks, only the frozen blow tank requires frost resistance gear.
    I MT the entire fight on 25m with 3fr pieces, to give you an idea.

  • @LackThere0f
    @LackThere0f 15 років тому

    The 3 plate frost resist pieces have a total of 7 sockets; if you neglect socket bonuses and fill them all with Thick King's Amber, tanks should be able to get 28 Defense on them. 35 with a belt buckle.
    That should at least keep you close to the cap.
    Due to an unfortunately timed gear change, I once tanked Ulduar 10 from start to Freya with only 537 Defense; I was only crit once during that entire stretch. So it's definitely possible to tank Hodir while slightly under the def cap.

  • @KikoKay-Kay
    @KikoKay-Kay 15 років тому

    btw if ur melle, or instant caster, just keep jumping to keep the binding cold un stacked

  • @Asmoharg
    @Asmoharg 15 років тому

    Well it does get mitigated by your frost resistance, so a pally with frost resistance aura + a couple of FR gear pieces should see you survive the encounter just fine.

  • @1forgiven2
    @1forgiven2 15 років тому

    He said the NPC's are moonkins. They might have 1 moonkin in the raid, the other two are resto druids, but I'm sure most of the time you saw a boomkin get frozen, it was an NPC.

  • @Rattja
    @Rattja 15 років тому

    Im sorry, but if I understand you right, then you are wrong.
    You still reduce the chance of getting critted beyond 540, but nothing in PvE will be able to crit you after that. Since the highest level mob you will meet is a level 83 (boss). The crit chance a mob has is linked to it's level.
    In pvp you meet higher crit chances, which is why you need resilliance as it offers more crit protection then defense ;)

    @mocire By ToC I hope you mean of the champion, Trial of the crusader is a lot harder than ulduar.

    Ok just want to say great video and Thx Ciderhelm. Quick question where do you get the music for your videos

  • @rajab6

    Nice Video
    Are these video Shot in the PTR?

  • @freakenator7
    @freakenator7 15 років тому

    can i just ask, what addon do you use for your health/rage and target health bars?
    Love the videos, keep them coming :P

  • @FirstStryke
    @FirstStryke 15 років тому

    Well, we tried it w/o any FR gear and tbh the raid damage was absolutely insane. imo the most difficult part of this fight is healing through the aoe and any FR gear you can get will greatly increase your chances of downing him.

  • @SneakyDBH
    @SneakyDBH 15 років тому

    Actually, you are wrong. The boss cannot parry an attack from behind him. Yyy279 is correct in what (s)he said, that is why any good DPS will be behind the boss.

  • @xWolfytx
    @xWolfytx 15 років тому

    Hmm, I use most of these addons I think they're : Pitbull (Unit Frames),Prat,Bartender4,Recount,Digits ,MSBT, and Grid. There are more but I don't know they're names...

  • @futcharn
    @futcharn 15 років тому

    I just love your unitframes (target, target's target and the ragebar). Mind informing us what addon you're using?
    As you posted on a thread regarding your UI you said you were using pitbull, but I can't configure it to remotely look like yours. I wonder how you get the name, numbers etc. to be outside actual frame.

  • @blightstrike
    @blightstrike 15 років тому

    uhm Ciderhelm , just a odd question , like in this movie since you gave all the information till middle of the movie , when you have spoken done , could you try like Get the real sound back or so ? so we can come prepaired when he says what or whatnot
    Ta // healer

  • @Slyeruz
    @Slyeruz 15 років тому

    The numerical Health meters/ rage is called Digits or Digitz i forget which

  • @RobertCharron
    @RobertCharron 15 років тому

    Doesn't really matter, so far the only bosses that have enrage (As far as I've cleared) are XT-deconstructor - Which I would say if you can't do 4kDPS you fail and shouldn't be in that raid. On the boss it'self you should do at least 5-6k with the heart taking extra damage - and Razorscale. Again, if you can't do 4k DPS for to Razorscale (Not the adds), you will probably fail.
    This is all compared to 25man, 10 man is rediculously easier.

  • @nihilanth5911

    Love TankSpot movies... Helped me and my guild plenty of times... One question though:
    what music do you use in your videos? this one especialy?

    I really like this ambient, snowy music you've got going in the background, is it available for download somewhere?

  • @Slappingplastic
    @Slappingplastic 15 років тому

    Great video, something you didn't explain is how, other than frost resist gear you are supposed to mitigate a 31k frost damage hit in 10 man? Just heal through it? I only have 36k hp raid buffed but I am quite aware of the major bonus stam on frost resist gear - is that all there is to it?

  • @Panda
    @Panda 15 років тому

    if your dps dont get to use the buff on malygos then your doing it wrong.

  • @MurakamiTenshi
    @MurakamiTenshi 15 років тому

    I wonder how resto shamans deal with healing on this high mobility fight. I barely saw any chain heals in this video...

  • @benlulz
    @benlulz 15 років тому

    He didn't say necessary, he said it aided raid surviavability. So it's optional I suppose.

  • @rsfighting1
    @rsfighting1 15 років тому

    When tanks wear their frost resist gear, it will obviously most likely make them under defense cap, right? So how would tanks cope with the potential to get critically hit by the boss? Or is there a way to keep a high amount of resistance yet remain above defense cap?

  • @Joker5133
    @Joker5133 15 років тому

    the only thing i can think of would be have your raid wear more frost resist gear our guild was having the same problem and when we did that it helped out took longer to kill him but we were able to survive the whole fight

  • @Brozerko
    @Brozerko 14 років тому

    can someone tell me pls what the add on is called that shows is health in green numbers there ???

  • @Smaugren
    @Smaugren 15 років тому

    The only thing that bosses can do from behind them is dodge. They can't block or parry. Melee dps needs 26 expertise (214 expertise rating) to prevent a level 80 raid dungeon boss from dodging while dps is attacking from behind it.

  • @ihatewhorde
    @ihatewhorde 15 років тому

    Since this is 25man he assumes that you already know the basic fight.

    hey ciderhelm im thinking [like the last boss in nexus] you should jump :) and when you do this this will stop the affect of that debuff but you do have to move like the maly gose incounter i sugest your dps wait for threat

    When you critically hit you always deal twice the damage of your regular strike or more, so there can't be any "very small crit".

  • @TausMunk
    @TausMunk 15 років тому

    Bleh, for once I'll have to be the guy asking what addon that is. Usually ciderhelm uses Pitbull, but that unit frame thingie that shows boss and bosses target seems very good, since its not taking up alot of room, anyone happen to know which addon it would be?

  • @Nazulsik
    @Nazulsik 15 років тому

    yup true def capp 540 but i always have like 1 or 2 more def capp just to be safe for changing gear so i know il will be def capped

  • @ulktz

    530 means you can be crit, that is not good enough for ulduar.

  • @mocire

      @hammyboy404 2 роки тому

      Do note that the Recount damage meter shown is not just for this fight, but for the whole raid including trash and downtime, so the DPS numbers appear a lot lower than they would if it were just for the hodir fight.

    Ehm no, you are still wrong. You CAN reduce it even more if you want, there is just no point. After 540 you are crit immune, wich means that you will NOT get crit in pve, ever. That is the whole point of this "magic number"
    There is no chance what so ever to be crit by a boss, if it did crit you would die.
