Now THIS is tanking
I’m still coming down from the adrenaline high from this…
We’re finishing up the week’s Naxx25, at Kel’Thuzad, on the third attempt. We have two DK offtanks to pick up the adds. At 15% both OTs go down. In a panic I quickly taunt the adds off of my Druid healer focus, Ildara.
And there I am, all four adds plus KT on me. Immediately a feeling of dreads casts over me as pessimistic tidings of doom start shooting through my mind: not enough dps are up, those adds will eventually overpower you with their stacking buff… you can’t see void zones… people are too close, you’re gonna get iceblocked!!
It was quite possibly the longest 45 seconds or so of my life, but we did it. KT went down and the adds fled to whence they came from.
I have no idea how I did it, but I give most of the credit to the healers.
(In case you’re wondering, I ended up third on the damage done chart, with around 2500 dps).

ok, im speechless, your healers sure are on top of their game!
when flux (the guild im in) tries KT, there are always 3 possible outcomes :
1. Any of the 2 OTs go down because of the ice cubes at 7% ( i Tell you, its always at 7%).
2. The MT gets D/Ced at the start of phase 3, or.
3. We actually get the bloody thing down

It was definitely all the healers. I owe them everything for that!

Wow, impressive that you did this in 25 man NAxx! I’ve only seen this in 10 man naxx and it was excruciating to have to heal for 2-3 min of the MT tanking KT and 2 adds. Your healers really are good!!
Great screenshot =)
I love when that happens. I was doing the same thing this week for 15%, both tanks went down (heals sucked for them) and then suddenly they picked up their slack and spamed the hell out of me for a minute.
I think it just goes to show how awesome a pally can be with full tank gear, blocking any attack that gets to them.
