Rocket TonkWhat Exactly is the Trick?Gnomercy 4.U.The Platinum PummelerhammerRocket BarrageRocket TonkHow Does the Trick Work?

First, do your best to help your tank stack the mobs, now you can either let them do it solo or the whole can help do so. Any sort of knockbacks will help you gather the mobs close-by, unless your tank is a Death Knight and can use Gorefiend's Grasp, in this case they need no help.

Second, make sure to NEVER interrupt Rocket Barrage and kite the non-boss-enemies on top of the Rocket ground puddles, they will take damage from them. Now, one thing to keep in mind is that they will also do damage to your party, so you really have to be careful and do your best to avoid stepping in one as it could cost your life. The highest threat target (your tank) have will set the direction of the Rockets, I usually go clockwise (check the video once again).

Third, you need to interrupt AT ALL TIMES Bomb Tonk's Detonate to prevent the whole team from taking lethal damage. This shouldn't be a concern if your tank chooses to do this pack without the help of your team.

Last, do your best to stop Strider Tonks Flying Peck, they will occasionally jump around and avoid all the incoming ground damage. The solution is to have single-target stuns or stops, that will stop them from doing so but won't affect the Rocket Barrage cast from going through.

Things to Watch Out For

Periodically, there will be saws coming out from the ground, rotating clockwise and counter-clockwise, do your best to avoid them, since a knock from them might put you in a dangerous situation like the Rocket Barrage puddle. Not only that, but there will be also bombs on the ground which you must avoid at all cost.

Hope you guys enjoyed the weekly tip, let me know in the comments below if you have used it and it worked for you, see you next week!

Thanks wowhead...Comment by AndarviDHThere’s nothing here to fix. The tank goes solo, kites all the trash through the red swirls, kills the mobs, the rest of the group follows. On high keys, especially fortified, the healer might need to go to with the tank.

This isn’t some sort of exploit or big secret.Comment by TeydamYou are awesome petko. I would be so happy if you all integrated these types of tips more often. it would make a lot of content that would draw people here IMOComment by NiccoloMInb4 this gets fixed

Thanks wowhead...Comment by luisjosp5Now do it on M+15 :)Comment by imainlockNow do it on M+15 :)Comment by QokoAlternative, we timed a 20 almost six minutes under without using this. Coordinated well enough, this pack is a 30-second pull regardless: if you haven't practiced it I wouldn't do it on a higher key. Next time we go in I'll give it a whirl though.Comment by SarthoriusOR, have awesome and MASSIVE AoE DPS in your groups (yeah, not only SV Hunters or Warlocks) PLUS, some kind of AoE stun (Capacitor, DH, Monks, Taurens, you name it) or Roots (Druids with Mass entangle to keep them in place on the pull, after gathering them, Hunter's Binding Shot, etc).

Unless on creepy fortified weeks, or over +20 keys (I sincerely don't understand the 'need' to go over that, there's no 'real reward', just people trying to measure their stuff, who has bigger ego?), this (dangerous) strat isn't needed at all.Comment by leowowthese strats are not for pugs. Surely 1 or 2 would be dead. Do it regular and you will save more time and deaths.Comment by HYunoNow do it on M+15 :)Comment by HYunothese strats are not for pugs. Surely 1 or 2 would be dead.

And if you either don't know or don't want to use this strat, you will be abused and told to go ____ yourself... neatComment by yetiknightthese strats are not for pugs. Surely 1 or 2 would be dead.
