[Illidan Stormrage] Avoid demon phase! Illidan for newbz!

[Cern]

My guild just killed Illidan yesterday and we discovered a few bugs that you have got. If you got 2 Good Flame of Azzinoth tanks and Maintank that knows what to do, its no Problem! For example you can Avoid the Demon Phase at the transition from Phase 3 to Phase 5. Its as simple as Illidan Hisself: Max DPS him in P3, untill he will grow bigger and gets into the demon. He will make his flame burst, but you still have to max dps him with about
26000 - 30000 DPS. (No problem with much spell haste or heroism). He will get down to 30%HP, thats where the transition from P3 to P5 is. He will get smaller and Maiev Shadowsong will appear! You have succesfully avoided P4!
You may ask yourself, "Wait, thats not an exploit", but yes it is one, since Illidan will not get into P4, because he will get into P5 directly. Remember that P4 Appears after 1 minute.

Regards, Azirs

thats common sense..

[Enfi]

yeah, common sense imo

[Cern]

No^^ Normaly you have to do P4 about 3-4 times <3

[d0om]

But you are just DPSing him too quickly for him to get into the P3->P4 transition. He will still do a P4->P5 transition after another minute surely?

And if he gets into demon form, he will one-shot you all with his AoE shadowbolt which isn't hitting a warlock tank in shadow res gear?

And if you have enough DPS to do this, then the fight is probably on farm anyway?

"Hey guys! if you DPS Gruul faster he won't get to grow 20 and one-shot your tank!"

[Cern]

He wont oneshot you^^

[Aradroth]

This fight is easy enough as is

[sol82]

So you got your first illidan kill doing over 26k DPS?

GG sunwell recruits?

[fortunez]

illidan is so easy you dont really need exploits

[devmode]

LoL we pump out about 20k dps in mostly t5 stuff, w only 2 locks and 1 mage.... its all about where your hands grow from...

[funkyjunky]

So if you dps him faster, he sooner gets to 30% than if you have lower dps?

Working as intended, common sense, blah-di-blah, etc ...

[Ferag]

This could be a marginal exploit but really, you're just saying to DPS him like mad. If he does go demon he could simply kill half your raid with his Shadowbolts.

[kerosinek]

This isn't an exploit. Skipping phases on bosses due to exceptional DPS has been around forever.

[mjmorrell3]

This is not an exploit.

[ZOMG]

illidan is so easy you dont really need exploits

Yeh, he is SOOOOOOO easy.,.........STFU, seriously.
