Danse Macabre

Instead of repeatedly saying “So you didn’t jump”, it would be more helpful and appropriate if you instead said, “Did you jump to remove the debuff stacks?”. Etrich and others have already replied to you and stated that they had removed the debuff stacks and were still dying. Repeatedly saying “bet you didn’t” “turns out you didn’t” is not helpful in any manner and can be construed as “trolling” and overall impolite forum behavior.

Unless they’re going to provide any evidence that isn’t anecdotal, I’m going to automatically jump to the conclusion that has solved this for everyone else: they are failing the mechanic. Anyone bringing up the squares as a point of contention doesn’t understand the actual mechanic as you can completely ignore the squares entirely at level 80 as the dot does nothing. The only way to die is failing to clear dancing fever, which coincidentally will be expiring just after the danse macabre goes out.

“I haven’t seen this bug, so it’s not real.”
Very helpful, excellent input.

I haven’t seen the mechanics so it’s bugged
:see_no_evil:

Well I went and ran this with some guildies. And can confirm, it is bugged. Multiple deaths with the “Dancing Fever” debuff removed. I died twice without the debuff.

So yes, it is a bug.

I meant to post this over a month ago, but due to unforeseen health issues have not been online to do so. So I’m posting it now.

Still bugged.

Can confirm it’s bugged; Jumped to remove the fever, still died. Luckily the fourth time I managed to kill the bosses before it killed me again. Sometimes there wouldn’t even be a debuff. Which is probably what people are experiencing; Either the jumping not removing the fever or the debuff not even showing up.

Bumping this thread, it’s a pain.
Blizzard, please fix :heart:


EDIT:

Turns out it was a mechanic, you can bypass it by jumping continuously :slight_smile:

Well, a lot of folks up-thread are claiming it killed them in spite of jumping to clear the debuff. Make of that what you will.

But yes, in general, in that mythic fight you’ll have to jump a lot.

I almost nuked them all before the danse macarbe, but it was always 1 NPC that survived and triggered it before I could finish them off — I’m guessing those that completed it were geared enough to nuke it :joy: lol

And yeah, haha

Actually, because it’s a 3 boss fight with individual health pools and complete health reset for the survivors when you kill one boss, I’m going to say it’s impossible to down everyone without at least one phase transition, which means one Danse Macabre to deal with.

Danse macabre is completely ignorable. Dancing fever is what kills you and happens on a timer. I don’t believe it can happen during danse macabre.

Yeah, my bad, I got the names mixed up.

I don’t pay that much attention to what things are called. If the debuff is up, I jump. It’s not much more than stimulus-response.
