My guild attempted Battlemaster Rhorious last night for the first time. We had no problem killing BM, but kiters had issues and the adds got to the raid. We killed all 3 Groundpounders but had a partial (well, nearly total) wipe with the Snake and Goat still up. We quickly recovered but just before we re-established aggro on them, they de-popped.
All the strats I could find suggest to kite the adds and kill in reverse order (GPs, Goat then Snake). There was no discussion why they must be kited (i.e. BM killed first) or why they must be killed in that order. We had absolutely no problem keeping our MT up against BM, and are considering just off-tanking BM and killing the adds as they come active. Any advice?
We are a Time guild, who is about to start Ikky raid trials. Our tanks are 13-14k with 2k AC.
Thanks in advance.
