Was tanking a 10 on a decently geared Druid last night and hit a pack in the maze with 2 guardians spamming anima slash. I was not prepared. Without Incarn there’s no way I live through that damage. I don’t think it can be kited or los. What do?
Isn’t it magic damage? I heard that warriors can practically ignore it.
um…we cant ignore it, we have to use well-timed spell reflects and constantly refresh IP to tank it.
Those ___ers are designed to test tanks and healers responsiveness. They are definiltely difficult until you outgear them. Kinda like the last two trash mobs before Heroic or Mythic Queen Ansurek. Just annoying to tanks to be annoying.
Yeah again Druid so no spell reflect. I was pulling over a mil self healing with Incarn and still being almost 1 shot. Just wasn’t sure if there’s a trick to that pack other than burning every defensive.
Bring a DK who specs into AMS to remove the stacks on you.

Chain cds. You have zerk, barskin, sleeper, elune fury. Barkskin should be up every other slash, so chain your other cds inbetween, get an on use tank trinket, if you still struggle. If you run out of cds and the guardians are still alive then flame dps before leaving the key.
Oh yeah we got the pack down when Incarn came up it was just a heap of damage I haven’t seen before so wasn’t ready. The only ways around it that people have brought up are spell reflect for prot warrior or ams. As a Druid even cycling barkskin and 2 survival instincts without Incarn I fall over, pallys can bubble as well, how do brews and vdh handle it? Seems insane there’s a pack a lot of classes have this much trouble dealing with.
You can also try barkskin paired with either rage of the sleeper or lunar beam. also survival instincts can bridge between those
Guardians struggle with that pack pretty bad. You need externals.
