Or at least thats how i understand it. I was under the impression that to not get an add at all you need to bounce agro constantly. Altho only bouncing when she's due to finger point would make sense.

This is one of the reasons they nerfed that tinker item. You could instant cast it when she was ready to point her finger and you could never get any adds. Due to wiping the hate on the person who had it.

O that seems legit! I thought they got rid of that retarded fucking tactic.

Nah just made it less accessible to by nerfing the mem-wipe item.

Well I just did freethinkers tonight. I hit 4.2 or 4.3k On Othysis and here's my zonewides breakdown 2.2k All fights included. Before Treyloth/Malkonis I was sitting at 2700.

It's pretty good for a Guardian. It would of been alot higher if I could of used my axe on Malkonis =(

Btw my group was illusionist/dirge/warden/warlock/guardian/defiler up until treyloth - then my fucking swash finally got there so I switched the swash in for the warlock. Hate transfer was nice - losing my double attack wasn't.

1-2 adds? No way in hell you're doing 55k - 60k dps on Othysis and getting 1-2 adds. We did 40k on him got 1 add at 50%, second add at 5%.

If you're doing 60k, you're getting 1 add....if you're doing 50k, you're getting 1 add.

And blurring him to avoid getting the add is gimp, pure and simple.

Who knows - I don't care. I was just pissed because I didn't top the parse yesterday. I've never topped a named parse before and I thought I could do it.

Screenie of the breakdown:

jeez, 90.38% to hit percentage (on pure slash)? Could I ask what your group make up was?
