Why the points into shatter? It seems wasted since your mainly clearing with AoE bliz and it doesnt crit. Wouldn't something like this be more fluid? keeping the crit dmg bonus is fine for the novas, bolts, and cone. classic.wowhead.com/talent-calc/mage/230055001001--25050233132301301
Thanks @arlaeus ! I originally started doing this pull with your original recommendation but had a boostee aske me to get him loot off the boss so I did a very similar pull to what you do. The thing I noticed was that I took much less damage in the cathedral and used up much less mana from mana shield so I started doing this all the time. I experimented with running through the fountain and jumping down from fountain when coming from the safe spot and then rank 1ing on the steps untill mograine showed up but eventually changed back to ice blocking and facing away and blinking if I got stunned.
Been doing this for months now. It's so much better as I get slowed way less coming out of the cathedral. I rarely have to use my trinket with the boss 1 pulls. I just start the run like normal and pull the mobs in the hall with the pull.
I have pulled the boss for a while now, but with a different strat. I do a normal run pulling the boss, then block like normal. Blink gets me out stun, so the ledge you hop back and forth on stops your blink, so turn your character while you blizzard so that if you get stunned you insta blink 1 ft into the ledge and just go to the other side of the ledge and blizzard. Only way you fail at this is to not blizzard early enough to get 1 tick off before a potential stun. Have never been stunned more than twice in one pull and never twice within a blink cd.
So... Doing this no longer words, sadly. I think due to the recent SoD update as of Sept, if nerfed how the mobs path. Which really sucks, cause I'm new to AoE farming and was looking forward to farming SM. CATH Specifically now has snare effects from mages in here that use fire spells to snare/ slow you and the jump from the fountain back onto the grass at the doesn't work. The mobs don't run around and path like in the video
Instead of just praying the boss doesn't stun you, if you're turning your character model to face the wall of the ledge, you can always blink the stun and essentially ignore the mechanic.
imo its way easier to jump down the waterfall after a wide turn before the killphase. that way you get way more time for ur first blizzard. sometimes a few ranged mobs wil end up in the right stairs but that doesnt really matter
i dont understand how when you do these pulls there is always the perfect amount of space between you and the mobs, yet no matter how closely i follow your steps, the mobs are always too close to me. i even have minor speed on my boots as well
Here is a big tip for u! To remove your rng if u get stunned while blizzarding you Just turn to left and right so you can blink out of the stun, and u don't blink into the mobs.. Watching this without turning while blizzarding making me nervous
You're a cloth wearer killing a full dungeon in one pull and your upset that a spell slows u? Do u want to just walk in the dungeon and everything just dies instantly and you get all the gold and loot?
you might want to kill morgraine and all the mobs, then loot AND THEN go kill the other boss (forgot her name) or the loot on the trash might disapear. That way if there are any mobs that you forget you can take care of them without you boostees risking their life going for the loot
No offence Arlaeus but think people been doing this for months, at least in Europe :) And you should not face your body towards the mobs if you get stunned from Morgraine.

How much frost resistance do you need total? And do you think you could do this at 56 got a friend I wanna boost his priest?
@@josephhipsher1051 I'd recommend 50+. You could do this at 56 though probably but it'd be easier at 60.

quick tip : face left side or right side so that if mograine stunned you u can blink and stay on same spot and avoid death
Thanks!
Thanks for posting this version of the run!
I use a magic resistance potion for each pull. Makes it way easier imo. And its easy to farm for.
You can blizz them with your back facing the mobs, so you can blink away if he stuns :)
Awesome. Definitely showing this to my mage friend

Good stuff!! Glad you were able to figure it out!
Just when you think it can't get any better, it does! Thx for vid mate

Nice man!!
Did they update this farm with some sort of slow that the wizards cast on you or has that been there the whole time
That's been there! That's the main benefit of having the PVP trinket

You can't use Living Action Pot to remove boss stun?
Hey Arlaeus, saw a video of a mara pull where they pull princess with all the other mobs, should look into doing a video and run doing that.
I personally don't like to do it, but you can definitely do that as well!
Great video once again @Arlaeus!
Question Arlaeus, do you need to be 60 to do this?
If you use living action potions you can get around his stun for the one off chances when he does hit a stun.
Yup that's a good option as well! and then you can block since you have the laps going
Any new strat for armory?:)
Hey Arlaeus, you should make a video about soloing UD strat for holy water farms
Unfortunately it's rather difficult, but it's something I'm looking into!

Does anyone know the addon he’s using that shows blizzards ticks?
I think it’s weak aura
Quartz if you're thinking about the castbar.
TheLeopoldz Do u know what the weakaura called? And I’m talking about the blizzard icons above the mobs
Neatplates it's an addon :)
Arlaeus thank you :)
i dont understand how when you do these pulls there is always the perfect amount of space between you and the mobs, yet no matter how closely i follow your steps, the mobs are always too close to me. i even have minor speed on my boots as well
Record yourself and rewatch it and compare. There's always something little you can do that will help. Your pathing makes a big difference
if you dont face the mobs while casting blizzard you can save yourself w blink if he catches a stun on you mid pill
Are there some solo lvling SM tactics?
Unfortunately not
Here is a big tip for u! To remove your rng if u get stunned while blizzarding you Just turn to left and right so you can blink out of the stun, and u don't blink into the mobs.. Watching this without turning while blizzarding making me nervous
you should have showed an example of the boss stunning you and you ice blocking out
You brought the boss down to 69% on the pull? Nice!
It's the little things ;)
Just wanna say its BS that the frostbolts can slow you even with ice barrier/frost ward up.
You're a cloth wearer killing a full dungeon in one pull and your upset that a spell slows u? Do u want to just walk in the dungeon and everything just dies instantly and you get all the gold and loot?
hard to get scarlet boosting grps on my server atm Sadge

Yup definitely a good call!
One idea is to have a partner taking aggro on boss after the big pull. Then he jumps to an evade spot. Problem solved
