Something to add to this, make 2 ranged the "Target" for your melee to run to for their arc. Have the 2 ranged basically in a straight line from each other so that when it's not their turn, they only have to move forward while the other ranged moves back, eliminating the risk of being unsure about who is farther away because they're not close to each other
Hey, thanks for the tip. I was worried about the new changes making the game feel more like Retail than Classic, but Gnomeregan does seem to be quite more of a challenge than BFD so having a strength upgrade is fine by me as long as the difficulty is scaled up a bit in a fun way. I like that there is a bit more strategy in these fights rather than just "Don't stand in the fire". Seems like a fair compromise between new players and vets. What class are you playing?
@@Whatswiththecat I took my warrior to 40, but I’m currently leveling my shadow priest so that our hunter can go melee and we will still have another ranged. Yeah. Obviously you make videos so you know what you’re doing, but I just wanted to give my 2 cents. I never mythic raided but I was a heroic raider, and ended up taking over raid lead for my guild back in retail, and found that giving people a concise “stand here” and creating as much simplistic visual clarity will allow a majority of people to understand it the best, which is why I had the idea of the “imaginary” line behind the boss that your two arc targets never deviate from. My idea about it actually came from a boss in WoD, I don’t fully remember the name, but it was the boss that summoned the bloods, and your ranged had to kill them before they reached the boss or he’d wipe your melee, so you just planted your ranged in a single spot behind the boss in the center of the room.
@@prismriot4910 Oh nice. I'm thinking of switching from Feral to Resto since I was a Resto Druid in Retail for years. I didn't do anything crazy either, Heroic Raider between BFA and Shadowlands, but that was about it. Did some healing in TBC when my dad had to leave in the middle of a raid, but I was like 10 years old, so I don't remember much of it. I completely agree, mostly the reason why I started doing some guides in paint. It's easier to show people an image of what to do as if it was a children's book rather than hearing the words and watching 50 different colors fly around the screen and pray, you're paying attention to the correct one. I don't think I played any of WoD, though most people tell me that is a blessing. Most of my time playing between the ages of like 6 and 16 years old (2004-2015) was just me spamming WSG (10-19 bracket).
Gonna add to this, im a raid leader in sod for a guild with a multiple raid teams and we actually just discussed this boss. It seems the easiest way to do it would actually be to split your melee in half on each side of the boss, with 1 ranged on each side to designate themself as the arc target, moving in and out. That means that literally *only* the arc targets will half to move, and the arc will auto chain to the dps on their side of the boss
@@prismriot4910 Neato. That actually makes a lot of sense and burns the boss down considerably fast. A lot less of a headache than to assign multiple people as well. Thanks a lot!
