Tips on Guardian Mage Tower please!

I tried the MT in SL gear, that didn’t go well.
I ran SoO Mythic to get some gem gear and it’s going a ton better. Swapped Trinkets and enchants around to mostly damage price and even better!
However, despite that I can’t break the 15% mark on Kruul. I suppose I don’t have enough damage to push him, so any tips would be great.

Specs:

  • Some SoO Mythic gear with Agi gems
  • Tazavesh Mail Room range trinket (~6% of my damage)
  • Heriloom Demon Charm Trinket (10% more damage to demons on proc)
  • Unbridal Fury potion + Drums on Kruul
  • Greater Flask of Currents
  • Agi food

Other:

  • 2 Internals with Kruul
  • 2 orbs up (using 1 on first boss)

Here’s what I did. You’re doing a lot of the same things I did, so it sounds like you’ve gotta be REALLY close. I pushed P1 faster b/c i only had 1 infernal, but i didnt really notice the different, and your trinkets/gear seem a lot more optimal.

What’s kiling you? annihilates or knocks or velen dying or horrors? Raw damage?
How many annihilates are you getting?

Thinking back on it, it’s probably add management.
I get three annihilates I think
Take one with defensive. Block the next with orb then just forget how to press buttons and adds kill Valen on the third one.
When I am more focused and spend time there I could probably do it

Okay, you need to survive at least 4. you can live the first one with just ironfur, the second with 2-3 ironfurs, but you NEED survival instincts for annihilate 3 and 4.
Almost there, keep it up!

Thanks for the encouragement! I wanna be a green standyboi!!!

I pushed P1 faster b/c i only had 1 infernal,

i asked this in your original post, but HOW are you pushing P1 with 1 infernal, like im ignoring as much as i can to DPS the dude but i get MAYBE 35% before 3rd infernal is coming

balance afinity, moonkin form HOTW ON PULL, maintain 100% uptime on sunfire/moonfire and starsurge off CD, always drag adds into variss when cleaving them down so variss is also hit, and then back to moonkin form to wizard him!

I went at it again today, wasn’t in a good mind set from work and made a bunch of mistakes, but I am about 10 seconds shy of 1 infernal p1

Nice! Don’t worry too much if you get 2 infernals; it doesn’t change the fight too much. If you can do that much damage, you can absolutely kill p2!

How do you heal back up? I find I end up taking a ton of damage in Moonkin form

from what? I take almost no damage, because the only thing hitting me is mind rend. I shift into bear form every set of horrors to barkskin thrash/swipe them, and frenzy every time i do that; it usually keeps me pretty healthy

How do you get it so all of the mobs attack you? I keep having wipes in P2 where 3 of the 4 will come to me and 1 will just AOE velen to death. It seems like the 4 mobs should be tethered to each other like they are in P1, but P2 they aren’t.

In p1 i try to moonfire them as they come out and taunt as needed since its off the global. I also run on top of them and press thrash/swipe with barkskin up for brambles damage and drag them onto the inquisitor! in p2, you just play goalkeeper and block for velen, but then immediately run away so you dont put kruul puddles on him.

I just had a 1.6% wipe bc I got hit by the purple things that knocked me away from my last orb. Totally doable, but needs patience for sure.

If you have the legion legendary Prydaz, you can put a gem in it, in addition to an enchant from legion. It gives a nifty boost to single target damage.

The Heart of Azaroth works as a substitute but I dont think you can enchant it.

You can regrowth to get healer aggro on all of them. Works really well in P1, but you’ll need a different strategy for P2. I usually typhoon right as their about to cast then disorient to stop the cast.

That’s what’s working for me anyway.

I think its better to just roar to stop the cast. The damage check is very tight, and wasting 3-4 globals on typhoon and roar for adds can easily cost you a kill

Wana do it for me? Willing to pay at this point…

Screw it, I am 100% done with it until it’s fixed.
5 runs in a row the infernal 360d me with smash.
Elementals instant casting their AoE (literally instant). Eyes knocking me off even though they are dead. I’m just done.

It’s very random with chance, seems the legendary helped a ton as you could kite more in bear whereas now you have to boomy. Also the knocking off ledge when you get to Kruul SO ANNOYING one bit of lag GG lol.
