Re: Build for Black Morass? Sustained heavy dps?
I've done this a few times, with success and failure, and I'm convinced that specs are not particularly important (although Dark Pact and iHoT are really handy). What I think matters more than anything is having a shadow priest using VE. :D The shadow priest + warlock combo really shines here. VE keeps the group healed, helps with life tapping, and, with his or her debuffs combined with CoS, the two of you can down the tanked portal guard really quickly. A rogue should be able to handle the spawns by him or herself with a few heals here and there. |

Re: Build for Black Morass? Sustained heavy dps?
Listening to some of the strats, it seems that you guys might be overestimating the non-elites that come out. With a straight up Destro build and 5 in insta corruption, my job has been to burn down the adds. With about 700 damage, 19% to crit it is pretty easy to 2-4 shot the adds while keeping all dots up on the boss. This encounter depends heavily on your ability to dps the rift lord fast enough to not have to deal with too many waves of adds. The warrior adds may take an extra shadowbolt or two, and I usually save a DC for them to help regen a bit. Toss Seed of Corruption on two of the three whelps when they come, shadowfury them, all dead. If you take care of the adds fast with big nukes, you don't have to take any beatings. I usually end a wave at 75% health and mana, tap once or twice, bandage, and am ready for the next portal. The 2nd boss has a stackable MS that makes him, imo, the hardest. For that one, on wave 12, we let all the adds go by, and dps the crap outta the boss till its dead. Me being ranged, have the duty to pop my dragon when Medihv's shield gets to 90% (most times its at 100% at the start of the 2nd boss.) After the 2nd boss, its a cake walk. |

Re: Build for Black Morass? Sustained heavy dps?
2 SoC puts it on easy mode. We had a hunters pet just dragging the adds back to the boss if they got by, with the 2 of us pretty much spamming SoC the whole time. By the time the 3rd boss spawns, we usually have 4 beacons left with the shield still at 95% or so. The only problems we've been seeing in there is after the first boss, it's like the timer bugs out with an extra long break before rift 7, then the rest all spawn in when they should have spawned. Maybe that will get fixed in the patch. |
