+10 attempts on Proffessor!

[Romulis2000]

So in ICC 10 on the professor Putricide encounter if you have a warlock in your group..and things start to go bad have your warlock teleport out and run as far as he can get. Doing this not only resets the boss, But allows your attempts to exced the 10 attempt limit per week. With my warlock and our raid working out the strat ive been able to reset boss 5 times so far and stil have 10 / 10 attempts for our raid!

Enjoy more attempts before they fix this, very fun encounter!

Happy Raiding From your local neighbourhood Warlock!

(please dont try and flame and say this is working as intended, the locked door and the 10 try limit says otherwise)

edit : As this raid does last more then the 6 minute timer for the warlock portal, the use of this would obviously only be good for those attempts that go wrong in that that time frame, but even if out of 20 tries you have reset 10 times before you portal wears off your still getting 10 extra attempts that were not intended. Currently dont have a vid to support this ill try to get one on tonights attempts, but any raid with lock out there currently on this boss can give it a go and back me up.

Having aggro would be nice if you can get it before teleporting to hopefully save a few of the other members but honestly to me its more important to just get out and run so when the boss comes for u you have a large distance from him to reset which doesnt use up the attempt if everyone dies and u live you have given your raid more tries.

About 5 mins and 30 seconds, yea not bad. This could be quite useful for any guild progression on this fight. +rep

Does the warlock need to have aggro? Or does he just have to run, and aggro doesnt matter?

The warlock would eventually get aggro which will pull the boss out of the room causing a reset, so some of the raid might die, but the boss will eventually reset.

Can anyone confirm/video etc?

generally this fight lasts more then the 6 minute teleport timer. at least for my guild. we're wiping in phase 3.

not 100% sure what you mean. If you mean the warlock summon stone, im not sure you can summon while in combat ill have to test this, 2 ppl would need to summon the lock he then would need to teleport out..and get out of combat in order to take summon before taking it refresh the teleport and resume the encounter, il test this also tonight and see how it goes.

Could save some tries that go bad in phase 2.. Very useful until it gets hotfixed, will try it tomorrow. Kudos to you!

Confirmed

But I need to ad that your warlock need to run the F*** away from the door as he only resets close to the intersection between putricide, festergut and rotface's corridors (if this makes any sense)

[Romulis2000]

im just glad i could contribute something after all my leeching lets hope its not hotfixed anytime soon.


almost 2k views and only a handful of comments, either alot of ppl reading arent at this fight yet..or they dont have a warlock in there raid to test! I really do hope this has reached some players that can actually use this otherwise its a large waste.

100% confirmed tonight. Not super easy to do though since the Warlock has to be ready to tear ass to the gate(portal range is fairly short) and then down without being the target of an ooze or getting caught.

Still, I sat in the room dead and watched and the attempts never dropped. Was 8/10 before and 8/10 after.
