Okay, so right now we've down Loot Reaver, Hydross, Lurker, Mag and we decided we wanted to start taking some shots at Leo.

We've got everything down, the inner demons, the transitions, the tanking and whatnot.



Everything except the whirlwind. Every single time we have one of these we lose at least 2-3 people, now my question is, is there any specific positioning that helps prevent that? Or is it just try and spread out as much as you can?

Edit: And what the **** do we do when (almost) all our healers get inner demons? Who heals the warlock tank?

You need to spread the most you can, have each group positioned in, say, South, North, East and West (fifth group is tanks group), and when Whirlwind starts just have those people run back to those positions, and do not DPS at all, since they can't be tanked as the tank just can't hit him :p

Or well, ranged can DPS but always while watching threat meters.

But just make sure everyone stands at max range, and that everyone moves if Leo even seems to give a glimpse of movement in that direction.

As for your other question, that's just bad luck. Nothing you can do there. But, if that happens, I recommend you let one healer sacrifice himself by healing the lock, then a BR if possible.

I can see this forum has lots of people posting, eh.

Also, make sure you're using UIs like Deadly Boss Mods which will give you information like how far away from other people you should be.

You should have appropriate mods which have timers as to when he will be whirlwinding. At about 4 seconds left till whirlwind, all melee should run the hell away lest they be killed. Everyone else should be at max range for either healing or ranged dps.

It's not hard, just make sure you're insanely spread out. Even go so far as to create teams of people for each "corner" or "side" of the room so that wherever someone is standing there will be a healer there to fix them up.

Your healers do not need to be in full healing gear. Have each one put on one-three pieces of pure DPS gear. Also, the demons take extra damage from Holy, Nature, and shadow (?) I think.

Also, dedicate 1-3 healers (depends on how good they are) to healing the warlock tank AND the pet, off in the distance.
