Belathis fortress - Maderoth strat

Hey guys, alot of you out there have probably done Bel a lot of times, we've been trying it over and over and we can't figure out the exact strats on it.

Would anyone be so kind as to give a link to the strat or write one up?

Thanks :)

Has PPK's bela strat videos.

Look in comments in the Maderoth Video for VVV's alternative boss order.

Shout out to BB: GJ on the video XD

Thanks for that, I watched the vid and I think we need to kill yellow first, at the moment we've been doing that last but I think perhaps blue(slow) would be better than a dot.
One of my biggest issues I'm having is pulling maderoth off Callaway, I just can't seem to keep it off him :/ (Wd/W)
Watching the vid it looks like it'd be useful to have a healer off to the side a bit for that aoe dmg.

Appreciate any more tips tricks people may have :)

I know quite a few tanks that have issues with holding aggro. Quite a pain for the final phase if you can't pull maderoth away from the crystals and he ends up healing. But yeah as suggested use BBs video its very good and I know its helped a lot of people clear easy mode for quests on siochain.

All taunts will pull him from the crystal. I save my taunts for that phase so I know for a fact the boss wont sit on a crystal and heal up.
As a tank, I know, that anytime when Maderoth 'throws' people in the air, aggro is being reset. So DPS just need to relax and be patient. Plenty of time to burn it, if the tank has aggro.

If you have any Q's don't be shy.

blue red green yellow is order to kill adds. but you have to kill the shield before you kill any of them first.

Cammo posted this on my video, will help you target holy shield of trail:

/run for i=1,20 do local name = UnitName("target") if name == "Holy Shield of Trail" then break else TargetNearestEnemy() end end if not name == "Holy Shield of Trail" then TargetUnit("") end

Also, there are various ways to kill adds. Some work for certain groups but not so much for others.

Yup we have that macro already courtesy of cammo heh.

I dunno, the taunt on wd just doesn't do much for me and highly irritates me that move to target doesn't work for that one skill, it just says it's out of range, freakin annoying. Was so tempted last night to go and get my k/s elites and least then I have 3 or 4 that I can use to pull him away, then I remembered I sold my sword and shield in favour of a 2h axe >.<
I think I may need more pa and try and pull it off callaway but that means sacrificing more hp & def, I kinda don't wanna drop any further in those stats, I usually have between 150-175k pa i think with foods and party buffs etc.

I can keep and hold aggro off of Callaway with my 80k PA K/W. Seems you lack TP?

Dmg tanks always baffled me.

Trust me, suprra's toon wouldn't have even the slightest issue with TP, probs around 500m? lol

And also, I believe Knights would have an easier time getting aggro than a warden would anyway. Knights basically spam skills that have their own aggro modifiers. Wardens on the other hand only have aggro modifiers on skill that have a cooldown, and depend on damage for the majority of its aggro.

Apparently those NPC's are actually kinda OP... guildie's party wiped, and the NPC's just DPS's down Manderoth by themselves and they got quest completed.

Yeah somewhere round there cammo ;)

I'm a fairly good all rounder, if I was a dmg tank I'd have 500k pa buffed not 350 :p and die alot xD
Hmm Soul - What weapon do you use? I won't have wws but could I get away with k/w and use my wd axe? lol

It literally targets nothing. It does not drop target. It does absolutely nothing. with my other guildie, it worked 100%. even changed mob name.

Also, another guildie having the same problem as I.

NVM, somehow I copied the macro... while it was missing an end. weird.

Oh, that's wierd.

I wonder if you're getting wierd returns in the macro, try writing out a completely new one, no copy paste.

Source code

/run for i=1,20 do local name = UnitName("target") if name =="Holy Shield of Trail" then break else TargetNearestEnemy() end end
/run if UnitName("target") ~= "Holy Shield of Trail" then TargetUnit("") end


targets holy shield of trail only. if none is present you get no target, if you have it targetted it will not take a new target.
