    Unhappy Has Taurus The Hammer been played with?

    It seems you can't aggro this boss anymore. With Jugg, Heal AND Proc on as a tank (all at same time too, tried it and he just turns around) . My goal is to keep the run smooth and stun the boss. Well... he keeps running back and forth while I'm inside the borders and he just stops being aggro'd once you literally turn around. I need some clarification and tips on how you guys handle this problem... this just happened in the past few days. I'll try to film as soon as I can at what I'm trying to explain.

    For bosses like that, I'd lose the jugg. By rotating hits of axe, smash and cs, you should be able to hit fast enough keep anything aggroed and confused - even with a high end rogue team. The bleed on smash should help that along also. Jugg and Horn don't provide frequent enough taunts to keep the attention against classes with 1K dps or more.

    That's just my opinion, however.
    You never know what you can do until you try
    There are two ways of doing something: right, and again.

    I've tried a lot of these, still doesn't work for me :/ the boss keeps running away from me and follows the player at the vines. no matter how much i attack and stay on boss. we're away from the vines. So there's no way the boss could be attracted. But I feel you ARE right on the 1k dps thing. He only attacks my rogues/mage, not me. He follows dps and not the aggro no matter what I do, unless i get hit by him in his redzone. then he aggro'd.

    Maybe he considers you as his brotha from anothah mommy. Since you both are over weighted ...

    it is still a guess but if you're lagging, it is more likely for the boss to ignore you,
    just like sometime you can't see your party when lagging

    at this time, pets attack/passive are more reliable... (blinky)

    It is really strange indeed. Not saying it has been changed, because such behavior has been there before as well. The boss sometimes goes in crazy mode and just gets aggroed by everything. I had a run there recently where a warrior with whom I had done t3 many times could not hold aggro at all. It was a team of 3 rogues and a warrior so I was controlling the vines and not hitting the boss at all, nevertheless Taurus was coming my way all the time. At some point during the fight one of the other rogues received a phone call and stayed dead for a while (on the ground), yet the boulders (one time failed stun) stacked on his dead body lol (no one was near it). I personally think that this boss is glitched generally

    Watch this, you can also use cs instead of jug at boss because jug pretty much useless if you time stun and heal correctly.

    It's possible to keep aggro somewhat.
    Impossible to keep it perfectly.
    Tank needs to cancel boss' wind up with kelvin and heal on proper time to minimize their death. But still not able to keep aggro perfectly to secure their life.

    So other pt has to move and spam for their life too.

    He sometimes goes directly for the person at the vines after his rocks routine is done. For no apparent reason.

    Bulwark curse turns his attention to you. Charge and hit him when he turns and walks away. Then use all other aggros.
