How do high-level players get around high-level mobs the death touch? I hear about people one grouping some of the big bosses and even the one in the hole, but I wouldn’t even know how to do that with the death touch?

What’s the like best strategies for like a two or three man fighting death touching mobs?

For something like Yael it's simply a case of having a cleric that can keep rezzing and healing downed fighters. Killing something like that with a handful of people is definitely a simple task.

Abuse bugs to stop them from DTing which are actually about to be fixed

This. DT has been borked for years and finally addressed.

After patch should hopefully be classic: will be instant DT on agro (gotta sacrifice someone) and DT every 45secs

Honestly would prefer the instant DT on aggro vs the current meta of kiting it in circles waiting for th first one to go off before engaging.

When I first raided P99 I was called up to be sacrificed to Sister of the Spire in Sky. I pulled and expected to die instantly, but instead stood there and got melee'd to death. Hopefully the fix works and noobs like me can die on engage.

May make things like pulling Fear golems trickier if you are rushing to engage.. not sure the meta now if you get a certain amount of time after yellow text or if you can steal the golem after DT agro clears

Fear golems DT instantly, currently.
