HI, In this guide i will walk you through the tips and tricks every lancer should know for tanking Bathysmal rise (and stuff NOT to do too)-
(P.S I WONT EXPLAIN MECHANICS FROM SCRATCH HERE THERE IS A ENTIRELY DIFFERENT POST FOR THAT)
so the new hot dungeon of tera can be really fun, but also tricky for many classes, here i will walk you through the Tank PoV of the dungeon.
Gearing up and packing up for the dungeon-
for this you first need to see if you are a new player or a veteran-
fresh level 65s with no prior end game gear can proceed with idonel, but if it seems that idonel isnt enough, you CAN go for crafted ambit (but that takes away the whole point of the dungeon, it becomes only a VM4 mat far)
Veterans can skip idonel and run this dungeon with +12 Deva or +12 archetype. They can directly aim for Ambit as ambit will be the base requirement for Elkara's Ship in the later patch.
things to carry-
savagary scrolls
noctenium infusions
canphonera/bravery (optional)
LOTS OF POTS
quick rez scrolls
a few mana pots for 2nd boss' pukey attack
once you are packed, we are ready to depart!
BOSS1- MEMPHISIS-
so as we enter the dungeon we face the 1st boss, the baby farting, acid spraying turtle Memphisis. This guy is fairly the EASIEST guy to tank among the 3, as he is slow and his movement is limited.
The positioning of this guy can be done in 3 phases-
Phase 1 (100%- 80%)-
use this time frame to drag the boss to the wall BETWEEN the 2 poison rocks. Take aggro, run to the wall and ask tour DPS to calm Their potatoes and its more like a 5 sec job.
Phase 2 (80%- 30%)-
at 80% the rock breaks so it is wise to anchor the boss at the wall so that the fixer can easily fix the rock.
Phase 3 (30%- kill)
during this time, pull the boss a little toward the center so that the boss has an exposed back for the shield phase.
ALSO make sure you have your noct, savagary on during this time along with Adrenalin rush II (increase attack speed+1/2 cd times). every lil damage counts on the shield ^^.
if the shield DOES NOT BREAK and u feel threatened, don't panic, just defend and you will live through it.
now kill it and if luck is on your side, get your boots
BOSS 2- TANTIBUS-
[/size]
(p.s. skip 1st 2 mins if u don't want to see the minions)
this is BY FAR THE MOST ANNOYING BOSS TO TANK due to his movement and puke, I.E. u cant anchor him in 1 place for long.
Basic idea here is to take the boss aggro and drag him to one one the corners of the room. MAKE SURE U DONT CHOOSE THE CORNERS NEAR THE ENTER AND EXIT BECAUSE THERE IS A LOW CHANCE OF RANDOM RESET THERE .
this guy WILL move around a LOT randomly regardless the aggro, so just do your job, keep aggro on you and he will come to you eventually. The resolve cycle is important here because this boss HITS HARD and HITS fast, so keep cycling Second wind and Threatening shout to keep your shield up. this boss can cause QUIET a lot havoc if tank dies or looses aggro 9you will see in the video 
)
use mana potions if u run out of mana to keep rallying cry and threatening shout ready to get back aggro
if you are ever gonna get puked JUST dont gather it on the corner, and if you get leash puked, clean up, take aggro again and move too the next corner.
Kill him and if you are lucky you get your chest piece or belt
BOSS 3-FULMINAR-
So you were able to beat the 1st 2 and now looking at last boss, and you can smell victory.
The EASIEST way to explain its simpler mechanics is that he has more or less the same moveset as Kezzel or the new 5 man VoA boss.
the best way to tank this guy is what i call "rotation tanking". this guy tends to move you around A LOT, he will push you back NO MATTER WHAT, use it to your advantage to EITHER move him in an ellipse around the map OR make him go round and round along the wall, i prefer the prior. at times it may NOT be possible to tank him in a fixed path ( as i couldn't during this run) just make sure you have the aggro and you don't get sandwiched between him and a wall, that can prove to be your doom if he starts stacking bubbles.
You need to make sure that you stay alive as leather and cloth classes cant tank him as your substitute (except pro warrior tanks). his aggro concentration on you gives time to the DPS to well.. DPS and clear out bubbles.
yet again some of the attacks this guy does like the AXE and BUBBLES are more or less COMPLETELY random so don't worry about it.
this guy again has the shield phase where i'd suggest to again go noct+savagary+Adrenaline rush to break.this guys shield AOE is different than Memphisis as this is a single devastating hit with a BAD backlash. if you are unsure and think the shield will fail, move to his side closest to a wall and defend, with good gear you will survive with a lil less than 50% health and wont be pushed far away, hence you can rush back if he does cage and prevent a wipe
again your resolve cycle is important here as yet MOST of the attacks are blockable, he can hit hard on old lvl 60 gear, so if you are running on deva and you run out of resolve, there is a HIGH chance that you will get 3-4 shotted, so be careful.
be victorious here and you will get all sorts of useful stuff like- aggro gloves, simple/superior aggro brooch, brooch design, VM4 mats, purifying brooches (good for fresh players) ambit weapon, and if you are REAALY lucky DISCOVERY WEAPON.
Hope this helps you guys >.<;;
till next time
