The Tidebound Grotto Lair
The Venomous Abyss Race to World First Coverage
Although not formally part of the Race to World First, the Tidebound Grotto raid lair is still important as an extra source of Myth-track loot and a very strong trinket, which can provide an important advantage for the last couple of bosses in the Venomous Abyss. Although the lair boss supports variable group sizes up to 30 players, this also increases the scaling, making the fight that much more difficult. This led Liquid to experiment with different group sizes and compositions, eventually leading them to use 25 players and 3 tanks.
Group Composition
3 Tanks: 2 Blood Death Knights, Vengeance Demon Hunter
5 Healers: 2 Preservation Evokers, 2 Discipline Priests, Restoration Shaman
5 Melee: Windwalker Monk, Retribution Paladin, Subtlety Rogue, 2 Arms Warriors
12 Ranged: 2 Devourer Demon Hunters, Balance Druid, Devastation Evoker, 2 Marksmanship Hunters, 2 Arcane Mages, Shadow Priest, Elemental Shaman, Affliction Warlock, Demonology Warlock
Thanks for the loot!
