Duo Beastmaster Durzag

Duo BM

Introduction

​

This guide assumes that you already have an understanding of mechanics of the fight - #beastmaster-basic

​

The Strategies

⬥ There are two main strategies to duo BM:

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• AoE stack strategy - stacking and tanking everything at once, dealing damage with AoEs

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Entangle strategy - uses entangle to get the 2nd pet stuck, reducing damage taken

​

General Notes

⬥ It will be significantly easier if the base tank uses eofspec with staffoflight , especially if they are tanking pets at the same time for the AoE strategy.

⬥ reaverpouch reaverpouch Blood reaver with scrolls results in minimal food required

⬥ Cryptbloom cryptbloombody with animate dead animatedead

​

AoE Stack Strategy

⬥ Stand by the north gong where the 2nd pet spawns, and ideally deal damage to both the pets and BM using AoE attacks, i.e., standard soa FSOA rotation with bloodbarrage blood barrage.

​

Stacking Phase

⬥ Stay in melee distance to the pet to only take melee damage whilst stacking the enemies.

⬥ Walk the pet/BM to stack them for AoEs if necessary.

⬥ Focus on killing one of the pets, particularly if stacking BM on the pet fails

⬥ prismofrestoration Prisms of restoration may not be able to spawn if surrounded by enemies - place the prism before starting, and extend it during the fight

​

⬥ The 3rd pet and chargers will spawn once the 2nd pet's health is lowered sufficiently - continue to deal damage with AoEs.

​

One Pet Dead

⬥ Base tank - run BM to avoid taking too much damage; stacks are only received from melee hits. Using emerald aurora emeraldaurora for additional damage reduction is helpful.

⬥ DPS player - finishes off the remaining pet. provoke voke and tank the pet, using voke again if it jumps onto the base tank.

​

Both Pets Dead

⬥ DPS player helps to kill BM - the DPS player can act as the backup tank, allowing the base tank to do their damage rotation.

⬥ Try not to run BM too far from the non-tank player's damage-boosting ultimate.

​

Entangle Strategy

⬥ Uses entangle ent to manipulate the 2nd pet, preventing it from attacking until you are ready to kill it.

⬥ This strategy aims to use chargers to block the 2nd pet.

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Therefore, BM must not be in combat until you are ready to have it summon the chargers and 3rd pet.

​

Pet 2 Lure

Note: Do not aggro BM

1) Stand at the closest charger cage that is south of the west gong as the fight starts.

2) Wait for pet to jump to you → cast entangle ent on pet.

3) Do not attack, move to the southwest corner of the arena and wait for the pet to jump again.

4) Attack the pet; lower its health to around 25k.

​

Pet is Lowered - Getting it Stuck

1) Run towards the middle to aggro BM, cast reflect reflect whilst doing this

2) Run back towards the pet - cast entangle ent on the pet as BM comes close, and use freedom freedom or anticipate anti as you will be stunned by the 3rd pet

3) Wait for chargers to spawn - just as the chargers start to move, surge surge east and go to the southeast corner

⬥ If done correctly, the entangle will prevent the pet from moving until the chargers get into position. Once in position, the chargers will block the pet.

​

Southeast Corner

⬥ Lower the 3rd pet/BM as you see fit.

⬥ Base tank - run BM when the 3rd pet dies to avoid taking too much damage; stacks are only received from melee hits. Using emerald aurora emeraldaurora for additional damage reduction is helpful.

⬥ DPS player finishes off the pet that is stuck.

​

Killing BM

⬥ DPS player can act as the backup tank, allowing the base tank to do their damage rotation.

⬥ Try not to run BM too far from the non-tank player's damage-boosting ultimate.
