Party Strategy Guide

[lfd]

Using EoTB, needs to be done in conjunction with "Stay".  I tend to have the pet jump down first, then "Stay", drop EoTB, then jump down myself, and return it to "Follow" mode.  If you forget to use "Stay" the pet will try to run back to you and undo that marvelous EoTB work.[right][snapback]85044[/snapback][/right]

Speaking of EotB, this is how we end up pulling quite a few of the mobs in Molten Core; those poor, brave pets sacrificing themselves to pull lava packs or Baron Geddon/Shazzrah out of their rooms through the passage back to Garr's room, whereupon the rest of the raid piles in and the hunter falls over until it's safe to get up ;-)

With the nasty stun and fire attacks the lava packs have, this is by far the safest way of pulling (from the raid party's point of view, not the pet...); it's very long distance, it works round corners and if the pull goes wrong it can be aborted very quickly usually without a single death, and certainly without a wipe. Although we did briefly consider whether to take Geddon and Shazzrah on at the same time...
