Archavon changed?

Im a druid tank 3900gs 29700 armor and 47khp buffed.
I have tanked voa25 5 times now and 2 times solo too and now this week suddenly after stomp--->oneshot.

I thought it may be a one time occurence but it happened every time we tried him, after stomp two hits 35k each.
At pala with 26k armor he hit for 25k after stomp. Whats happening? Can anyone enlighten me?

Its a new Warmane feature!

When he grabs feral druids tanking in bear form the bear form get's cancelled for no obvious reason at all, he also turns around his target which makes him attack the target from behind which must be a special feature. You should report it in the tracker If it hasn't been reported already.

If you want to avoid this then you should have an offtank who taunts immediatly after his Stomp (aoe stun) which causes him to grab the offtank (hopefully not another druid tank :P).

If the offtank maintains second place on aggro there is no need to time the taunt with the stomp ability, as the offtank will automatically get aggro when the main tank is picked up after the stomp. In raids where the off tank is significantly less geared than the main tank, one can have the off tank taunt right before the 45-second internal cooldown for Stomp expires, forcing the off tank to be picked up (minimizing the time he is tanking) and preserving the threat lead established by the main tank.

Here it works even better, because you know, its not fun or hardcore if you don't wipe 2-4 times on each boss :P

Archavon has been bugged since release. When you get stomped then impaled It cancels bear form and you get one shotted. If you're feral bear stay away from tanking him for now.

What concerns me is that its reported on the bugtracker with only 2 upvotes, and yours isn't one of them. I know theres more feral tanks then that, the best way to have the staff fix it is by using the bugtracker so make sure you click bugtracker on top then search for "Archavon" and upvote + comment on the bug to get it some more attention. Thanks.

Going to upvote i was going to create a report but wanted to know what happened first. Thanks to all people plz upvote the bug to gather attention

but lordaeron is perfect!!!!!

The boss in Violet Hold does this sorta thing when she is meant to "suck" in targets she spins them around so their back is facing her, very bugged. To be honest pretty much every instance has a lot of bugs, bad mob positionings and broken pathing, or mob/boss abilities not working as intended.. It's just a different experience, in some cases Lordaeron is worse than Ragnaros in Molten days was.

It's not even hard, though. Get the other tank to taunt at the proper time.
