It was not easy to find good answers to this question, especially answers backed by some data, so I’d like to know what AMR’s data would recommend: Single-target or multi-target strategy for Tyrannical M+ weeks when bosses have 30% more HP and their minions inflict up to 15% extra damage?
It will be a bit dependent on your group, but for a typical group I would go with single target. If you are still rounding up huge packs for trash and having high multi-target damage makes up for the extra time on the bosses… you could stick with multi-target.
If you do high enough keys, you might need the single target damage to be able to beat the bosses.
Thank you, Swol. This makes sense and it does match what other sources suggest, that it will largely be group-, pull size-, other suffixes-, and key level-dependent.
It does seem that maybe a balanced setup between single and multi-target, if that is achievable for the specialization and class, perhaps leaning toward single target when a balance is sub-optimal, may be the safest bet in pick-up groups, as I’ve seen many, many more wipes against bosses in Tyrannical weeks than wipes against trash in PuGs.
