APW Beginning Bosses Guide : Vanguard Submissions

[Guest]

Malfunctioning X

Stats:
- AE, double hit, every 20% (at charge V), includes knock up effect.
- Targeted stun on tank at 50%.

Strats:
- Tank and spank.
Move behind pillars every 20%, leave 1 healer to heal the tank through the explosion, battle rez if needed. Backup tanks build aggro to switch when the MT is stunned at 50%, can switch back to MT if needed.



-------------------------

Enraged X

Stats:
- Targeted hate wipe every 20%.
- 8 mins until malfunction (total hate wipe, random aggro)
- 10 mins until enrage. Once this happens the mob hits for 20k+ and is unkillable.

Strats:
- Tank and spank with a twist. A Second tank times rescues to steal the hate wipe every 20%. Maintain aggro control other than the rescues and kill within 8 mins to avoid death.

Notes from the Devs on changes
-----------------------------------------------------------

Force Target Abilities
All force target abilities will now apply a force target immunity buff to NPCs that are affected by the ability. This will prevent the NPC from being forced to switch targets for this duration. If an ability has other effects on it they will be executed still.
This change affects the following class abilities:
Warrior:
Protect
Overwhelm
Shout of Defiance
Mountainous Barrier
Coercion
Psioniscist:
Lure
Paladin:
Shining Beacon
Entwine
Contrition
Protector's Fury
Monk:
Foolhardy Swagger
Trap Hands
Jeering Kick
Dread Knight:
Scourge
Nexus of Hatred
Seething Hatred
Inflame
Cleric:
Protection
Spiritual Guardian I
Shaman:
Intimidate

This means that tank swaping will have to be done alittle differently in the near future, so plan to make small alterations in the strats for this.

---No offense to administration on this one, but there is very little chance of this being confirmed since few guilds on Test Server are killing these. I can assure you I am in one of those guilds and these are 100% correct. I plan on posting more guides of this nature in the future. We have cleared many more bosses, but even i dont want everyone on the tails of the lead guilds in Vanguard so they will come in the future.

Can members say yay or nay to this being moved to a confirmed section.

[swimboydip]

most of the information is irrelevant, half right. I know for sure the first strat is wrong.

This is so far from reality, it should simply be deleted.
