a much, much easier way of doing it

Seems like an easy fight to me.

Tank & spank with a mix off:
Whole raid gets damage every 2 sec,
linked beams -> running to eachother to get it off,
don't die in ur fire,
Bite someone within 50 sec to boost their dps -> to not get MC'ed.

basically some1 gets the buff then after a minute has to bite some1 or be MC'd.

now 2 ppl have the vampire buff and have a minute of dps buff before they need to bite 2 new ppl to reset the clock.

4...

8..

If 1 of the 2 afflicted people dies at the "2 vampires stag"e you essentially add another minute to the clock (as long as dps doesnt slack this shouldnt be needed).

How many ppl get the initial vampire buff in 25 man?

well explain the vid desu linked plz mate.

does this help? Since we have a lot of problems with the biting order etc.

Update for Heroic Mode:

Video: Nothing new and amazing to see here, the fight in itself remains virtually the same.

So what makes this heroic mode different from normal? As with all ICC bosses, Blood-Queen Lanathel gains alot of hp, however the enrage timer remains the same. But that's not the main change. The main change is Presence of the Darkfallen. This means, for every person with the Vampiric Bite debuff, BQL's Shroud of Sorrow gains 5% power. As the fight progresses, the raid will take more and more damage.

Key points for this fight are:
- Do not stress out the healers by taking avoidable damage, react quick when you get Pact of the Darkfallen or Swarming Shadows and make sure to be spread out properly during the airphases.
- Check the healthpool of the person you're about to bite. The bite does considerably more damage and can kill someone when bitten on half health. If needed, call out on vent to top off that person.
- Maximize dps output (no slacking on double-potting please ;o)

Nice info (got much time on your hands? ), thanks Su Su!

*Was gonna post this on every single one, but decided that might be a bit OTT. So just accept this in reference to all the research you done!
