Enjoying your contents since wrath phase 1 keep up the good work sir. Extremely educational.

[@saftsuparn3222]

Thanks for uploading. We just came to nef on HC also as a 10 man guild. We only had 30 minutes to try some pulls before the time was over for the raid but got it down to 60% in that time period by doing the strat that you're doing in the video, from what i've read and looked at we have now seen the entire fight so its just getting the mechanics down well enough. Hopefully it goes down next raid we have :)

[@SubtleFW]

@@saftsuparn3222 nice! Yah you've pretty much seen it all. The shadow sparks will happen more quickly towards the end, that's the only thing you haven't really seen so just be prepared for a bit more movement there

[@AedrictTV]

Super impressive kill, the double dragon tanking looked dangerous but very effective to leave phase 1 quickly.

[@TheShilence]

Yeah thats a strat to adapt for my raid too. We only do normal nefarian but still I had to tank adds and nefarian in P1 which is tricky to get all adds befor nefarian lands

[@timothyhook7533]

Hello, I appreciate all that you do for the community, your videos are top notch and your strat on this fight makes it look soo smooth! I do have a couple questions though, would you mind sharing your DBM profile? I don't recall seeing such clear warnings for abilities on the fights in cata like in this video. Also are the ability count timers a separate WA pack or the DBM ones? Thank you!

[@SubtleFW]

Hey thanks! Happy to help. Here's my DBM profile: docs.google.com/document/d/1vQKZt-Cj3zGMpbEK2GhSBxHi-aqrghCe9sjQCVLX5TU/edit?usp=sharing

[@timothyhook7533]

@@SubtleFW Awesome! thank you

[@barbaronaa5185]

Amazing work big bro as always! Absolute tactical mastery and sync with the druid OT about turning the boss and him kiting the adds slowly, we will apply the same tactic in our runs. However we are a 25-man guild and would u recommend only one add tank there or two add tanks ? Because I struggle to get all adds on me as a prot pally since they are so many in 25man, would love to have your opinion on that! GG !

[@SubtleFW]

Thanks! You really want all of the adds to be on a single tank because it's tough for 2 people to simultaneously kite them properly. You will likely have a 3rd tank from phase 1 though, and that extra tank can briefly help pick up adds that get away on reset and drag them back to the add tank. But the add tank should get them off the other tank ASAP

[@wislo101]

Since the Nefarian Add Tank role is so difficult, do you think you'll make a specialized video with tips and tricks for that role to help tanks out?

[@TheShilence]

Tbf its pretty easy if you know the only trick. DBM is counting down the time to the meteroids. If the countdown reaches 1, move the adds. If the fire gets close to the adds, move the adds. Nothing more to do. Adds dont deal that much of dmg if they only get to like 20 stacks.

[@SubtleFW]

The Progress add tank did a really great breakdown of it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q2bSk3edZdeobZYsi=CZbZdjL5t-gLYoPp&t=6103 But I'll likely make a more condensed video once I've gotten some experience doing it myself

[@ericl487]

Which add on is tracking your external defensive cooldowns like Sac and Pain Sup?

[@SubtleFW]

Method Raid Tools

[@noname-zj5pp]

How are you face Tanking Ony and Nef P1?? I thought they had to be seperate?

[@SubtleFW]

Just run CDs the whole time and you can survive for a while

[@Lamm-si6pe]

Hey, what would you say, min. ilvl is for BDK to tank this fight?

[@SubtleFW]

Hey, 346+ is solid but most people are in the 350s+ by the time they kill it

[@DeanoDaMan]

How do you get the fire so its never landing on the group?

[@SubtleFW]

He shoots it at the adds, so the adds just need to be far away

[@chrish0001]

Amazing clear! To get the massive p3 healing, were you just basically DS only? Also was the Druid doing anything special to survive just face tanking? (Even with add buff resets that’s a lot of damage!)

[@SubtleFW]

Thanks! Just doing the standard rotation with some occasional short holds on DS if big burst is about to come. Feral wasn't really doing anything special to live, just cooldowns during high add stacks/crackle. Since I'm able to mostly self sustain, he has 3 healers mainly focusing on him

[@chrish0001]

@@SubtleFW still really, really impressive control on what is probably the hardest boss of the tier!

[@Kinguslav1]

Can you guys tell me what DS is?

[@Mrhasuluigi]

Can you release the tank guide for the rest of BOT? It'd be really helpful.

[@SubtleFW]

Yah will have those out soon

[@klabauterbaer]

for the crackles at 60 (04:15), 50 (04:45), 40 (05:07) and 30% (05:40) you call "personals" everytime. how does this work out? I'm trying to figure out raid cds for our first kill, but 4 crackles in a row with personals does not compute with me.

[@SubtleFW]

On 10m the crackle damage is low enough that you don't need CDs to survive it. The personals call is more just a reminder for people to use whatever they've got just to help out the healers than it being an actual necessity

[@ryansimcock2508]

Grats on the kill homie!

[@SubtleFW]

Thanks!

[@coachfloyd1904]

Remember roughly what rune regen rate was? Got me playing with more haste and curious.

[@SubtleFW]

This is my 3rd dk and it doesn't have much haste yet. Probably like 7.9 or so at the time

[@coachfloyd1904]

@@SubtleFW thinking of trying this, but I’ve gotten haste to 7.56 with mastery like 19% and exp like 10 (obv hit cap)… you still think my hate build better for this fight Strat than the mastery stack? Or is haste just bis survivability now?

[@SubtleFW]

Mast and haste are really close for survivability but haste gives you damage too. So I'm always going haste

[@louishobson7299]

why did nobody take dmg from the onyxia discharge?

[@SubtleFW]

If you just stand kinda on her back leg during lightning it won't hit you

[@RawrBomb]

@@SubtleFW There's a what?

[@Heofth]

I thought the tactic was to push two crackles phase 1, then kill Ony?

[@SubtleFW]

That's more for 25m where the Crackle does more damage so you want to get some of your raid CDs rolling early so you need fewer for P3

[@Heofth]

@@SubtleFW I see, tyvm
