Mage can pull then ice block to nicely group everything to be AoEd, perhaps the group wanted it.
Can’t know for sure, but I’ve done ice block pulls many times for our group.
but...no ice block
Looks like they killed him before he blocked, thus the "crap they hurt". I am assuming they hit way harder than he was expecting.
Perhaps he expected to have PWS. Like I said, who knows.
preist shouldnt have said go without the pws and mage shouldnt have started running without the pws.
And even then this for some reason assumes the mage HAS to be face tanking. You can just let the tank gather everything up then run in and Nova...
That’s not how you do AoE pulls in an instance. You let the tank pull and group before you start AoEing
Gl aoe pulling scarabs.
Warriors have AoE and ways to pull with range...
For scarabs it's way easier to aggro with a Warr.
White hit one for a bit of rage then demo shout
Tanks are pretty good at rounding up mobs and don't wear cloth.
Mages are pretty good at it too because they have a spell that makes them invulnerable for 10 seconds on a 5 minute cooldown and does not direct aggro to anyone else.
Apperantly not based on the video also 0 reason to do it when you have a tank.
Well the mage in the video obviously did not iceblock nor get a PWS from the priest rofl.
There’s not 0 reason. A mage can pull an entire room then ice block and then all the mobs are 100% tight, ready to be AoEd. I already explained this in my original comment...
A warrior has to run around and manually melee the mobs and may have to be healed before he’s pulled everything because he does not have access to blink, fire blast, counter spell, arcane explosion for easy pulls like a mage does, which could then cause the aggro of some mobs to swap to healer.
Mage ice block pulls are very very common for rooms like this.
It really isnt common unless you're running spellcleave with no tank.
Ok well I see it often. Guess you just have gotten unlucky.
