Most the group were all guildies of same group. But i had tanked with them before on different pugs so were kinda friends already.<br/><br/>Since some in group been there before they just game me a idea of what to do since i was the Paladin Tank. Boss at 6,12,18. Use my becon on last boss at around 50-60% and inbetween control adds and take care of them quick means more time to rest and mana back up for group. <br/><br/>I just tanked all the Riftlords at the portal with the rogue we had and the rest of group took care of adds and helped out as can. I burned up a lot of mana. But i made sure i always drank inbetween for mana as fast as i can and then head to the other Rift lord as it opened. Sometimes i just used JOW and SOW to help out on mana or chugg a mana pot to help out after wave 12-18 as they came faster.Overall we had 4 good run back to back. But i cant remember our mage been OOM nor did our Lock. even on the last boss which took longer to fight no one went out of mana i saw and i was using Judgement of Crusader to speed up the fight.

It's posted here. http://warcraft.fibergeek.com/?p=299<br/><br/>Second: I've found it helpful on that fight to declare "If you are not the tank, you will not get heals". This forces people into a more "I'm solo on this" type mentality so they will bandage/eat/life tap more often.<br/><br/>In between EVERY portal I have a drink. This sometimes means that the tank and I sit out of range of the portal while I mana up.. and the adds head to Medivh.. but having mana is more important than a few adds. Two comments.
