Thoughts on Majordomo Executus

[savaughn]

Concur with Gort, but I don't have first hand experience doing it. Was watching a friend playing on Proudmoore do exactly the same thing.

Barring a mod (some would it would be 'unclean') that would allow you to monitor your designated sheep in another window whilst you target something else, the role of a mage is just to stand there watching and reapplying Polymorph until such time it's broken, at whcih point, as mentioned, you can go back to DPS.

Thing is, it was mentioned that to have that many mages out of commission for DPS to be on sheep duty requires that there be a fair number of rogues and hunters to keep up with the dps-ing required.

Question is, do we have enough non-mage dps to do it this way?

Actually, you can keep your mob sheeped and add dps depending on where you're standing, what mob you're on, and what one is getting focused fire. It's a bit of positioning and you won't get all 4 mages helping (someone always gets stuck in the back). Getting 2 helping out is pretty straightforward, though.

The easiest one is AM and poly (but then I'm subtlety specced so I do AM as my base anyway). For some reason if you're throwing ice you really want to finish that bolt before you resheep and that's a bad instinct. Just do AM if you can and keep your eye on your healer. If it's time to throw a poly, tap the move forward key to break the AM and throw your poly. Make sure it's all good and ready to move on, make sure you're retargetted right, and throw another AM.

AM is also pretty cool because of PoM. Hit the PoM button and it will just sit up there. Then throw your AM's. They won't trigger PoM. When it's time to throw your poly, the poly will be an instant. Kind of cool. It's not that long of a fight tho, so PoM is only going to be up twice.
