I'm always a fan of using proper citations for your sources. OP seems busy rewording his guide, so I'll help him out.

Source: Blue Gartr Delve Thread <- Click Me
-Use the "Search thread" function.

As many have said, this information has been around for weeks, and is articulated much more clearly in the BG thread -- just trying to redirect anyone who may be looking for useful advice pertaining to delve bosses.

I have come up with exactly zero novel strategies on my own for these NM's, but we've managed to down all 3 delve bosses now thanks to the contributions and advice in the link I posted.

Best of luck.

I still need the damn bee so I can get my free lixir+1~

We tried tojilast night got to about 81 percent. We did get a lot of adds but I was not sure how we did not get to at least 75 since we were on it for 6 to 7 min before things got out of hand. We have used the simular set up posted.. but we used only 1 geo and 1 rdm. If OP can copy paste the strategy i would prefer that to reading 211 pages of the bg post.

Of the run we did besides the adds and the jobs our ls did a stun rotation which started to resist. I assume because was 2 much stunning. We also did not use rogues roll as someone suggested tacticions .. our monks have relatively good gear so I did not see that as the issue. He was pretty resistant to the damage and was wondering if anyone had ideas? RDM SAID was using dispel.

Can't really comprehend it not getting to 75% very soon after the 2hrs drop yet alone after 6-7 mins

My idea is that you read the BG thread. It spells out the stun resists, rolls, setups, gear levels, debuffs, etc. Reading a watered down, and in some parts incorrect, synopsis is just going to cause you more trial and error.

You can read the relevant portion of the thread in less time than it will take you to gather and get through another losing run.

Yes hundred fist and formless strikes...although we saved soul voice for when it was 50 percent we still had troubadour songs and rolls.

ah, we have 8 SV songs that last the entire fight, so there's no need to save it.

Sorry everyone, the OP setup and every ones role will make much more sense in my NM instructions, when i get the time to finish it. that being said though, there is a much better setup to be used that i may edit in at a later time, i will give this a bump when i'm 100% finished with it, but don't expect that to be anytime soon :(

After reading this thread I'm not sure that I believe the OP has actually killed Tojil.

If you want to skim then use the search function for key words and you should be able to find most of what you need.

But the thread is gold and worth reading entirely and can teach you a lot about how to think about these mobs, what the major issues other groups ran in to during the trials and failures so your group can learn from that and avoid it. A bullet point strat won't give you those advantages.

Optimally, you'd want to keep up with thread as it's moving so it's not quite so much at one time.
