Thoughts on Majordomo Executus

[Zippyy]

Alternately, another thought could be to have Anadrol and Starkos on the non-Domo side of the pit, and have Anadrol shoot Domo, pulling him through the pit. On that shot, the hunters peel their Elites off, and the mages go to town.

I think this was the method we used during the infamous MC blitz weekend. Like I've said before, I don't pretend to understand all the tactics floating around during a fight, but those three attempts using that technique seemed far more controlled than our latest attempts.

The problem in those fights seemed to me to be that when the MT was teleported, domo went out of control. The ideas being bandayed about having a paladin stand in domo's abdomen or having a hunter use distracting shot sound like they would solve that problem quite handily.

On the DPS side of things, it would be extremely beneficial, I think, to have very clear CTRA messages sent throughout the fight.

DPS ON Mirajj's Target! Kill it!
DPS ON Mirajj's Target! Take it down to 20%
DPS OFF Mirajj's Target! 20% and holding!
DPS ON Mirajj's new Target! Take it down to 20%

instead of...

DPS ON...
DPS ON...
"You guys weren't supposed to kill that one!"
...wipe

Etc. I'm not sure if I speak for the whole DPS crew, but for me it was hard to keep track of everything during the chaos of the fight (especially when it seemed like all three of our latest attempts began with a mistake). The strategy for the whole fight also seemed unclear to me at the beginning of our attempts. Then again, I don't NEED to understand the strategy, I just need to respond to the DPS calls, which brings me back to that issue. I don't think it's feasable to assume that the DPS crew will know which elites/priests to kill and which to take to 20%. If DPSers job is as simple as following concise orders, I think that will simplify execution of about half the raid, and make the entire encounter simpler.
