After the world of Warcraft TBC version of the Nostalgic Suit P2 phase opens, Gruel's difficulty plummets, and wild groups can easily defeat Gruel in a 20-player situation. So when the number of team characters is reduced to 6, can you still beat Gruel? I believe that many players think that it is unlikely, after all, at this stage, the player's DPS level cannot catch up with the stacking speed of The Groor BUFF.
Gruel has a BUFF mechanic called "Grow", and each layer of "Grow" BUFF can increase Grühl's damage by 15%. Once in battle, it will be stacked according to the timeline, up to 30 layers, which is a 450% damage increase.
The damage that 0-level Groul hits a T4 graduated tank class is about 4,000 points, and the increase of 450% damage is 18,000 damage. Under the influence of this growth mechanism, the smaller the number, the more difficult it is for Gruell to fight. However, six players successfully defeated Gruel.
The classes of the six players are 2 Hunters, 1 Bird, 1 Milk, 1 Discipline Rider and 1 Thief. Due to the small number of team characters and the low DPS, normal combat lasted 21 minutes, which also allowed Gruhl's BUFF to stack up to 30 layers.
Under normal circumstances, the tank class can also resist a 18-story or so Gruer, and if it is high, it is easy to be seconded, and the vice-tank that eats the hate blow can't even hold the 18th floor, and with the increase of the number of layers, Gruel's size will also grow larger, and after the 30th floor, the entire BOSS room is a melee range, and the final situation is "a little friend".
So how exactly did this six-man team knock out Gruel? In fact, the reason is the physical immunity mechanism of the thief.
Although Gruel's damage is very high, anti-battle, anti-mounting, and bear de can't stand in front of the 30-layer BUFF, But Gruel's damage is physical damage (flying damage does not enjoy the layer bonus), which is equivalent to no damage for thieves who can achieve physical immunity in the P2 stage.
In addition, Gruel has a hate strike mechanic that has the effect of attacking the second-place character in the melee range, which is why regular teams must arrange two tanks to fight Grul. However, since this 6-person team has no melee combat, and the Punishment Rider is also a BUFF tool man, the thieves do not even need to share the hate blow, and directly T Gruer.
Since 6 people can beat the 30-story BUFF Gross, then 3 people should be able to fight the same, it is nothing more than a matter of time. As for whether the thief can single brush Grul, it is estimated that it will not work in the short term, after all, Grühl is not only physical damage, but also flying damage, and the TBC version of the thief does not have much health recovery ability, perhaps only after the WLK is opened, the thief can really brush the Grul alone.
From the Grul of the T4 regiment, to the tidal tidal tidalist of the T5 regiment, and even the blood boil of the T6 regiment, the master mother and Illidan, the thieves players have proved their strength time and time again. Thieves may be unpopular in regular groupbooks, but thieves players can still get the fun of the game from other aspects, and this fun is beyond the reach of other professions.
