Hey guys, I have a question about how exactly the totem phase in Mueh’zala encounter works? So yesterday on +13 DoS …last boss , something strange happened and according to my party I am the blame for it. We started the boss …totem phase came , everyone went to his portal and as usual I kept my cooldowns (as I’m BM and we all know we’ll be out of the statistic soon but anyway) and nuked the add… in which case I straight away clicked the totem. Instantly someone said I depleted the key …as I rushed to click it and shorted the time of my heal/tank for their add. I don’t really understand when exactly have to click the totem , I actually thought that no matter what …the summoning back timer occurs after particular amount of time given for the add to be killed. So if actually it’s my mistake but not heal/tank lack of dps…so what I think about this phase is wrong and it actually works like clicking on the totem instantly activates the summoning timer for the whole party and it shorts the time of everyone else who’s behind on their add. I hope someone with more experience will explain the exact way of doing this phase, cause the key was in time if it wasn’t me (according to party members ) and I feel bad for depleting it. Thanks!
When you split up on Mueh’zala into your portals the adds will spawn after a couple of seconds. The have a fixed uptime before Mueh’zala pulls you all back, before that timer runs up you want to make sure you kill your add and click the totem. You need to deal 10% of his HP & click all 4 totems to defeat him.
That’s what I actually thought it is. That’s what I did and I was blamed for it …I killed my add first or second …clicked the totem and someone said I depleted the key cause I didn’t wait for heal/tank to kill their. I’m confused how that’s my fault if timers are not affected by any action.
It’s easier to blame others instead of owning up to yourself and the group that you ruined the key by not having enough DPS.
The thing is the whole party confirmed that…and I was like stunned…literally spent 1 hour searching of guides that can back up their claim. There was non …everywhere the same …kill add, click totem …wait for summoning to boss platform.
The totems are up for a fixed time, if one doesn’t go down, it’s not because they were clicked too fast lol it’s because the other person/people couldn’t dps their add down in time.
How pathetic are the people playing this game ?
If your reading, lmao, couldn even dps down a totem and then get so insecure you blame it on someone who’s done the job correctly.
State of it lol
Sounds to me like a crappy job from the tank and healer.
Not your fault at all its set timed nothing you can do about it .
So from what I understand , we all have the same timer for the adds and clicking the timer on one platform 10 seconds before others doesn’t affect anything as it’s fixed and can’t be changed by any way. Correct?
Correct.
You were right, they were wrong.
Correct so you were right and they were wrong one simple look on wowhead will say the same and adventure guide ingame and your Bigwigs/DBM timers .
You didn’t do anything wrong, the fault is with the tank and healer, how they do not have enough dps to burst down a totem is beyond me, or well, rather the add at the totem.
Shouldn’t be possible, but it’s tyrannical week. My guess is that the healer was too busy healing and not dpsing.
You did nothing wrong. Simple as that. They blame you because they don’t want to get blamed. Ignore, move on and never pug again.
It is not your fault. It is tank and healer being low on dps. So don’t listen to bitter people. Ignore.
You did nothing wrong, like everyone is already saying. But on tyrannical i do suggest 2 phasing the boss.
This is the first time I hear this, I wish there was some official info on this? It really affects certain classes on higher keys if their timer gets shortened.
It’s all the same timer.
If somebody kills their totem within seconds, it won’t affect any other totems / timers.
It’s just a dps check, it’s why I keep my touch of death ready for my totem(as tank)
OP was just falsely blamed for other people not dpsing their add / clicking their totem in time.
It doesn’t.
Tank and healer probably couldn’t kill the add in time due to low dps. Probably because tank wasn’t mitigating damage and healer had to heal him instead of dps’ing.
Well you should do rbgs then it’s less toxic.
