Seconded. Was in a king group@ZO and the enc DC'd with a charmed hasted+weaponized+geared (jumpy robe, -mr gear, etc) live frog.while the monk was doing a 2pull
Group members (Self)Cleric, Rogue, Monk, Enc, Pal, Mag
Enc was pretargetted for break situations.
Frog starts wrecking the enc. (60%)
PATCH heal (90%)
Continues wrecking enc (50%)
Enc isn't casting, I'm worried he's getting stunned out of casts.
STUN@Expet->Lands
Enc stands motionless
F6 to target the enc, nothing happens.
At this point I notice the enc isn't in the group, I rotate my camera and see the LD flag on his long ass name.
Continues wrecking enc (15%, lowhp aggro snaps room)
Enc is going down.
CHOICE 1: DA. I don't want this. Hasted pet will definitely rip up the group and I won't be able to rez solo in ZO.
CHOICE 2: BE THE CC! I also don't really want to do this, but at this point the paladin is chain stunning because we have no slows, a shroom priest + war in addition to the ex-pet frog in the ZO. The mage wasn't using earth (was epic or air for stunning healers idr).
I take choice 2.
ROOT->
Resist
HITS YOU! (70%)
Pal FOL's loose Expet so it stops sticking to me
CE Pal
ROOT->Lands
Breaks. Why are you charming this shit?
ROOT->Lands
Breaks.
Internally Screaming
(aggro snaps back to me,FOL Fade likely)
HITS YOU! (40%)
Pal FOL's a second time but was likely a resist as the aggro soon switched to me
CE self (60%) (Snaps Expet)
HITS YOU! (35%)
DA DA DA DA! (macro to group)
ExPet goes loose hitting people while the tank is FOLing to keep it mostly on him (keep in mind he's also tanking the shroom priest and war while this is happening)
CE TIC (55%)
I say to the group "I'll root move from mid"
Amazingly nobody is shitting their pants and the frog is almost instantly relocated to a back corner by the ZO pad.
At this point, Enc is dead, most people are ~50%-60%hp, but the pal tank is suprisingly still above 80. I've got about 1 CH/ce left with a root or two in the tank, or about 6-7 roots.
At this point I notice *A myconid warrior yawns*
This rogue had switched in a locustlure the moment the enc died out of instinct.
ROOT Expet->Lands!
CE TIC (75%)
Shroom priest goes down, Group starts killing the shroom war, it's down to about 85% when;
ROOT BREAK!
HITS YOU! (45%)
STUN! ->
Resist
CE TIC (65%)
ROOT! ->
Resist Wtf did tash AND malosini fade?????
HITS YOU! (35%)
ROOT->Lands
HITS YOU! (15%)
HITS YOU! (LOADING PLEASE WAIT...)
I think it's game over at this point.
Group is silent
30 seconds pass
Me: "Who's dead atm?"
No response, I assume people are LOADING PLEASE WAIT.
Mage: "Pet inc"
20-30 seconds pass
Monk: "FUCK!"
Me: "You die?"
Monk: "yeah"
A few more seconds pass
Mage: "Last pet"
~60sec of silence
Mage: "I'm dead"
~30seconds pass
What's going on?
~60seconds of silence
Pal: OK REZ inc you ready gream??
Me:
(Internally-UHHHHH????) Gsay-Yes.
I receive and take a pal rez. Pal is at 50%, rogue is BWing pal and at 60% himself.
Turns out the last root before I died actually held out, they killed the shroom before the frog got loose, then the mage started sacrificing DS'd pets to the expet frog. When the pet got low, the paladin rooted it and caught med tics and the monk tanked while the mage whipped up a new pet. Monk drew the short stick and
failed his mend -and- flop and ate shit while the mob was palarooted, but the last mage pet was already up so it wasn't in vain. Expet then killed the pet, the mage, switched to the pal around 30% remaining hp on the frog and the pal stunned it while the rogue hit it with some snare (OSS or SBD or something). Got it fleeing and won.
After getting set back up with a rep enc and killing again, It donned on me how amazing it was that everyone worked so well in a super shitty situation without anyone flipping out or pointing fingers (Likely due to the paladin rez pulling together the save).
I don't remember who if anyone got the LOH but i'm pretty sure that was part of the save too.
Can't remember the Enc's name but they never came back and in the following days didn't spot them in the zone. They were a good enc just got unlucky with that DC, hope they're ok. Don't know who snagged the pet gear either(if anyone, lol).
TL;DR A Paladin tank salvaged a bad moment in king and I'll never forget it.
Honorable mention to the prepared rogue too but this is a tank thread.
