Prince Malchezaar

[Quark]

Out of curiousity, is this encounter/strategy similar to the standard Firemaw LOS strategy? You may have to excuse my limited perspective since I am not that far into Karazhan, but if the only issue here is tanking a mob with LOS AOE abilities near a doorway, I am curious what the difference is between the two fights.

Better comparison is Chromaggus. Using LoS to avoid the breaths? Not an exploit. Using LoS to avoid the afflictions? An exploit, and fixed quickly. Using LoS but attacking through it to avoid the breaths? An exploit, and patched so that anyone actively attacking Chromaggus was susceptible to breaths no matter where they were, hence the "turn off autoattack" frequent comments.

It's a fine line, but it's essentially "what does Blizzard intend to be avoidable compared to unavoidable?" Standing inside the door for Malcazeer turns it into a stupid tank-and-spank, and I can't believe that's what Blizzard intended.
