There are a couple rules I follow when phantoming this boss. I was just now a phantom for this fight, and wondered if I should have broken my "rules".
RULES
1) Always go for Smough's agro first.
2) Wait to see what the host is doing. Whoever the host attacks is who I assume he/she wants killed first.
3) If the host is losing the dps race, ignore the tanking and try to dps-tank simultaneously.
4) I don't humanity heal until the first one is dead.
Here's the situation.
I was going around with a host that had the Catch Pole and was fat-rolling. I assumed they didn't really have an idea about what to do because of how they behaved. I try not to assume the host is ignorant if they want the "sunlight medal chests", but to me it might be a sign they might not be familiar with the Llyod's Talisman SoA farming trick.
So we get to the boss and I think, well this guy obviously wants Smough's armor (He put Havel's armor on right when he got it.) However, he went for Smough right away.
Me and the other phantom tried to dps O, but a good phantom usually follows these rules.
I couldn't help but think, "I would've done this guy a favor by getting him Smough's armor...but..."
I also realize the "there will be a next time" thing.
What do you all think?
