except for the fact that level 56+ mobs cannot be stunned. those tactics worked fine on priests level 55 and lower.

Myconid priests cap at level 55.

And for higher level mobs you can use rapture/glamour to interupt casts.

I just haven't seen any evidence saying NPCs are subject to the same push interupt that PCs are. Atleast in classic.

absence of evidence is not evidence of absence

I am so excited. No more pulling dragons that gate. Enchanters are now very useful and required for raids in a capacity outside of buffs.

Found an interesting site with information related to Vox but should also relate to other dragons.

http://www.angelfire.com/ca/FriskyFe...e/LadyVox.html

Some highlights :

The Ice Dragon Herself. While Dragons and all Giant Class monsters cannot be stunned, casting a stun spell on them WILL result in interrupting their casting. While she won't stop attacking and meleeing your tanks to death, casting a stun spell on Vox can interrupt her complete heals.

pallies need to chain stun and rangers jolt/chain stun as well. Druids Whirling Winds that wench.

How you attempt to take out Vox will depend on what method you are looking for. There’s a couple of schools of thought here and I’ll give the basics for each. Right now I’ve found the “No mana for Vox is good for me” technique with a “Stun the Dragon” variation/addition. There’s also the “Tactical Strike” method. I’ll just list them as best I can.

Whats interesting in this quote is the fact that Vox only heals for around 5k which is significantly more than the complete heal people are talking about in the bugs forums.

Everyone begins chain-stunning, bashing, and slamming Vox. Although, stuns will not actually stun her, it will interrupt her from casting heal spells. Continue to stun her until she is dead. Vox is a cleric AI and will attempt to Complete Heal herself. If she does get one off, it is not the end of the world, it will heal approximately 5k of hitpoints.

Problem is, whoever wrote that guide had no problem what they were talking about.

[Daldaen]

Yea none of those mention pushing a dragon.

That's Progression server mechanics, not classic.

Stuns (including slam/bash), Mez or Kill to prevent casts. That's classic.

[bulbousaur]

They should be able to be interrupted by push, although as Haynar said, that threshold should be much higher than small model mobs.

[Daldaen]

You'd think the "Only way" to interrupt certain mobs gates or CHs would be mentioned by someone somewhere though...

Mobs that lead to wiping whole raids if they are allowed to CH or Gate.

[baalzy]

CH should be a 10k heal now. It wasn't until Luclin that it was changed to be 7500 due to warriors being able to stack upwards of 8k HP to tank with. Course it probably doesn't matter to p99 so I don't think Velious will see anyone surpass 7500 hp even with max hp gear+buffs.

Complete Healing will now heal a maximum of 7,500 hit points.

For players it doesn't matter, but it does affect healing charmed monsters. I'll let the reader decide whether that's a good or bad thing.
