Well my guild has raided DFC a few times and each time we had out main Guardian tank Fyst and each time it was easy. Well tonight we are going down one more time to finish off some HQ's for guildies and I suggested letting my L42 Monk tank tonight. I'm decked out in T5 crafted and have T5 weapons and ALL my useable skills are either Adept III or higher with 90% of them being Master I. I don't think Fyst will be a problem for my Monk, atleast I hope not.Any suggestions? Last time we did Fyst after we cleared the room Fyst attacked us with no break. We were all pretty low on power and he killed us but we manage to come back and kick the snot out of him. Was there a reason he attacked so fast? All the other times he was about a one minute wait between the room being cleared and him attacking.Should I go defencive stance (Sweeping Crane:Master I) or Offencive stance (Tranquil Blessing:Master I)? Sadly my Dragon Advantage is only App I since I was planning on picking it as my L44 Master II. Should I atleast pick up a App IV or Adept I of it before going down tonight? I don't think holding aggro is going to be hard. Last time I was there I was L36 and pulled aggro off the MT with just DPS.Which CA's should I use? We are going to be low on DPS (alot of fighters in the guild) except a 51 Assasin (who I am worried about stealing aggro). Any other time I have tanked I just used my group taunt and Drance stance and kept my single taunt in case things went wrong (which never happened). Should I still use this stratagy?Thanks in advance.<div></div>

<div>I would go defensive and spam CA's and Taunts with your hate proc on. It can proc off CA's so that should keep aggro NP.</div>

If you fail on Emperor Fyst, do you have to do it all over again the next time? Or can you go directly to the arena and commence?<div></div>

No when we failed the one time we were able to revive in DFC and walk back down to Fyst who was still spawned. The only problem was the door was locked but we were able to target him anyways and pull him out of his room.<div></div>

Yeh, the door was locked too when we revived, but Emperor Fyst was back on his balcony and could not be targetted.We had to gate out.I'm just wondering if the zone will be reset again the next time we try or would it depend on the status of our quest?<div></div>

Not sure if thats normal or not we only failed the one time.</span></div>

<div>Have everyone stand in the very farthest corner.  Tank it there.  When you kill the last mob Fyst will come down.  If your in the corner dont attack him until he agros you.  We usually had a good minute or so before he attacked.  That is unless things have changed.</div><div> </div>

Yeah that was about the same for us Warbird all except the last time he just attacked us right after the cleared the room.<div></div>

<div>Another solution.  Its a bit harder to pull off but it works.  Mez the last mob at 5%.  Then use regen potions to get back up to speed.  Kill and go to it.</div>
