Beating priestess Jeklik?

Looking at EJ for tips..

help?

we cant stop the heal. Is it even possible?

Um

The bat lady? Just AE the bats, DPS her down, you can kick/counterspell/shield bash her when she starts healing to stop her.

She is immune to silence, not spell cancels.

ah ok, thanks, we had trouble, rogues said that kick didnt work, nor did our warrior's shield bashin.

She is just like Sulfuron's priests for healing :)

we mana drained her and the fight lasted like 30 seconds.

rogue kick worked for us

Thats what we did on the Spider one

We tried mana draining her but it was just me and another Warlock so we didn't make much a dent in her 26k mana pool.

Our strategy so far has been to have one tank keep aggro and dedicate 2 priests to him. Everyone else moves out of her AoE silence range in a tight group. The melee guys worry about the bats and the casters blast away. Once we get her to 50% (where she morphs to human form and the fire bomb bats start to come in) everyone spreads out and melee goes in to add to DPS/kick/bash/whatever.

We've got her to around 40% so far before something goes wrong. We're not an MC guild (yet) so it's a fairly challenging fight.

She doesnt do a lot of damage if you just stick your tank on her and stand back for a minute, have your priests burn.

Uhh dunno if it was a bug or not but pulling away from where she stands will stop bats coming?

a felhunter with spell block on autocast will win you the fight without any effort

The team I was in for our guild just shield bashed her and kicked her when she was healing, she didn't get one heal off. Our other guilds team drained all of her mana so she couldn't heal. For the bats we just AOEd them down with the two mages in the group. We wiped the first try, second try she was cake.

yeah kick/mind numbing poison/mana drain works really well on her..but if you want to take her down rediculously fast here's what you do:

Pull her back to the edge of the arena near where the path widens into the large circle.
There is a sort of grassy gnoll there. If you take her back too far, she will simply teleport back to her starting position, but if you get it just right the bat adds do not spawn at all to help her(!) Obviously, this makes things MUCH easier.

Also, if your group is about to wipe, you can run away towards the ramp and she will port back to her starting position.

I expect this will get nerfed sooner or later, so take advantage of it while you still can!

seems like an exploit to me

she's pathetically easy. We had two groups running through ZG last night and the two main methods we came up with to beat her are either to drain her mana (viper sting, mana burn, drain mana) or just pummel/kick/shieldbash/hammer of justice her whenever she starts to cast a heal. Also don't stand in the fire from the firebombs, it's like in the Magmadar fight when the flames stay wherever the bomb exploded for about a minute.

From what i can gather, people have brought attention to this since the beginning of testing 1.7. No word from blizzard if this is an exploit or not as far as i can see.
Doesn't mean it ISN'T an exploit... but you would be crazy not to do it untill you are told otherwise :P

or you dont want to take the easy way out

We got her. Made some minor tweaks to our strategy and cleaned up the mistakes and everything went off without a hitch. Was a fun battle and the 38+ gold she dropped was pretty spiffy as well.

too bad ZG itemization BLOWS

Well we only have run it once, and it wasnt organised, we threw the group together at the last spur of the moment. I'm just tryin to figure this out so when we are running our full potential itll go smoothly :P thanks for the input

tank her off to the side and position the main group right below the cliff.

use totems or whatever you can to aggro & slow those bats when they drop so that you dont waste time bringing them together.

as for her... it's been said already. just kick/bash/whatever when she starts to heal.
