Ta'yak - Easier P2 with Warlock

[ccAin]

Hi Everyone,

dunno if this is the right place, but we found out a real nice trick to shorten up the second phase of the fight vs Bladelord Ta'yak.

Let's be honest, the whole phase 1 is a chill out phase without anything that REALLY hurts your raid. Only thing to look for is the invisible strike: everyone runs to a marked spot (we've chosen the melee camp) and this way the dmg is splitted up to every player.

On 20% the Phase 2 starts. We've run into wipes at 8% several times, because our healers were not able to compensate the dmg while running to the other side. so we did this: our warlock placed his gate in the way of the corridor, where the bladelord will summon the tornadoes (he did this preferably at 40% boss life, so its fully charged when arrive in p2 comes). 5 players (we took 4 dd's and 1 heal, with a feral cat for speed) stood beside one gate and as the bladelord teleports everyone to the middle, this 5 players are ported directly next to the boss's first position and can instantly start to dps it down. this way we had a VERY short phase 2 and the kill came in one of the first 10 try's.

hope this helped someone,

greetings

We found a Druid with Symbiosis on a Elemental Shaman grants the ability to Tranquility and run at the same time so we used that and personal cool downs, We thought about the Demonic Gateway but we noticed it disappeared when the Warlock got to far away from it. What we found very Helpful was to get to the boss and DPS him to around 12-12.5% And then we jumped into the Winds. Not to be confused with the Tornadoes. It pushes you all the way to the bottom pretty damn fast, If he transitions before you make it, Jump out the Wind because it will change direction again at 10%. Get it right and he transitions to the other side with Dots ticking away, if you have a problem transitioning leave the tanks or a single DPS.
