[ICC 10 Man] Saurfang Adds made easier

[Waky]

I found this out while my guild was raiding ICC 10 man and we were on Deathbringer Saurfang.

Every 30 seconds (I think it is), Saurfang summons 2 adds which need to be kited by the ranged DPS in order to not hit anyone which would help Saurfang.

If the raid is positioned similar to this map:



and one ranged DPS on both sides is almost behind the wall they will be able to pull the add around, causing a longer kite path, but allowing them to still attack the add without being hurt.

Here is a view of it in-game:



NOTE: This LOS trick works on the other wall as well, I never took a picture though.

With this method however you have to be sure that the DPS near the wall gets the aggro, and hunter's ice traps work very well allowing more time to kill the adds.

I searched and didn't find any similar threads.

I hope this is easier to understand with the pictures, and I hope it helps some people!

in 10man, the adds are 1hit

doesn't change the fact this helps. thanks for it.

[Waky]

in 10man, the adds are 1hit

They have 101k HP, if you can one-hit that, I congratulate you.

in 10man, the adds are 1hit

With 100k HP in 10 man I don't think they are 1hit.

lol dont take it literally, hes just saying that adds are easy to down, and if you have trouble downing them due to ur small dps, you probably shouldnt be in ICC yet.

Did you rly think this through? In our alt run last week we had only 2 ranged dps wich made it harder for us to kill em due to low dps on adds since u never put meele on adds in 10 man, sure it took some time but we cleard it, imo this would have made it a bit easier.

I really wish people who post in every thread that an exploit isn't needed because it's so easy without it would just shut the **** up. Why even reply if that is what you are adding?

"OMG LOL why bother posting an exploit in the exploit forum when it's not needed!"

No one gives a shit if your scrub guild has managed to beat the fight legit just like thousands of others. This isn't the Post Only Exploits For The Hardest Content forum.

In closing: Get ****ed.

woah slow down there cowboy. dont try to rationalize your analysis and flame flame flame, simply cuz u didnt read what i wrote.... i nvr said that this exploit was not needed, im just stating the fact that you should head to a lower lvl instance and gear up to facilitate the clearing off the harder bosses in ICC. next time before you go in with ur dick first trying to stroke ur ego, take a step back and read, it helps.

NO THEORIES!

Back on topic - nice way of handling them, this could help people struggling with it.

Though i cant see how this would be an exploit ?
But more a tactic which is clever use of game mechanics,
so should be posted in strategy guides imo.

its an exploit because you're able to shoot thru a wall, when you're not supposed to. You are exploiting a bug (Wall being able to be shot thru) thus posted in the exploit forums.

Thanks for showing us you never got to Saurfang. The adds have 100k hp in both 10 and 25 man versions.

Isn't that true for pretty much every exploit posted on MMOwned? Most of them can be classified as clever use of game mechanics, yet they give an unfair advantage.

The exploit here is that you aren't supposed to be able to shoot through a wall where the adds have to go around it to reach you.

+1 Rep. The adds are easy enough to deal with if you are with a raid that can get to Saurfang (believe me, I pugged ICC 25... your average pug rarely gets through Deathwhisper), but this is a helper for people struggling.

You do make a good point Thanks
