Bug #1377
Castle Highhold : Gudre Blackhand (Set up for BJ Gudre) AOE Blockers needed
Description
... doesn't appear to handle his AOE's, one of which is his massive power tap. Rest of zone is cake, wiped 3 times (5 mins, 5 mins, 11 mins w/manual aoe blockers) because once the AOE mana tap hits you for 58,146 mana every second, you die pretty quick.

quote: "He casts “Stunning Thresher Shark”, “Pelican Dive” and “End Around” fairly regularly. At release, if “Pelican Dive” was up for too long it was a fail condition, these days it may as well be called the memwipe from hell.. “Pelican Dive” and “Stunning Thresher Shark” really needs to be cured as quickly as possible to avoid memwipes/power drain.
“Diving Pelican” and “Stunning Thresher Shark” are AoE blockable and pot cure-able if needed. “End Around” is an un-curable de-target."
There's more things listed on that page (even ACT triggers), that I'm sure you're already doing, but at the moment, even with blue/green adorned group, even with spirit tap, troub and illy, you can't keep up with that kind of DOT if you miss it.. death soon follows.
