57:16 aggro on you

That little lasher aggro and chain pull omg If u and tank never jump to that rock it will be fine

[@Fingolfin3423]

You guys aggro'd the lasher around the 57:20 mark (either you or the warrior), and since the lasher couldn't jump/cross that tiny gap to reach you guys, it ran all the way around, chain-pulling mobs in the process. When you turn around to look back at the tank at 57:28, you can see that the lasher is no longer there where it was. That's what it looks like to me. The moment you and that tank jumped onto that rock to pick the herb quest item, the first thing I thought of was that you would aggro that lasher. I'm not sure if you're new to playing a priest or healer, Robert, but a few observations from the video: - Warrior tanks couldn't generate rage through Power Word: Shield in Vanilla, but I thought this was changed in a late Vanilla patch, which is what Classic WoW is based on, correct? Forgive me, as I never played Classic. I played WoW from March 2005 - June 2022 before I had to stop. I mained priest for those 17 years. - Spirit helps you regen mana as a healer, and there was a spirit + stam item you passed on in the video. - Use Fade, as it will make the tank's job easier, even if you don't need to fade the mob off you for your own safety reasons. It will also help DPS, especially melee, since they won't have to chase around as much. Fade should be an instant spell, too, not a "click" spell. - Put Dispel on your main bar so you can instantly dispel people. Never have that spell as a "click" spell. - I would type in group chat what each mark/symbol means. - If you get aggro, run the mob to the tank, not away. - If you have a new tank in the group - which you do in this video - extra communication and tips will only help him. For example, telling him to watch your mana, or at the very least watch you to type "mana" in group chat. That will be his notification to wait. - Be careful not to max range your tank. If you do, there's a higher chance he will move out of your way, cancelling out a critical heal or shield when needed, leading to a tank death and/or group wipe. It also becomes easier for him to line-of-sight you if you're further away. - Accidentally keeping your lower-ranked Shadow Word: Pain isn't the end of the world since you can save some mana while still contribute to DPS. If I recall, the higher the rank the more expensive the spell, but this could be totally wrong since I haven't thought of this in years. - Near the end of the video you said the tank shouldn't have been tanking that run. From my observations in the video, the run was going just fine and your tank was doing just fine. The only major error he made was perhaps aggroing that lasher around 57:20, but you could have also aggro'd it since you appeared to be closer to it than the tank. - As you stated at the end of the video, immediately drop group if you think it's a "run" situation in order to trigger the 60-second teleport countdown. This should always be an agreed-upon hardcore WoW strategy by the group at the start of every dungeon. I love your content by the way. Thanks for sharing it.
