Enemies Cheatsheet

(1) Mobs with interruptible spells in 'pink'

(2) Mobs that do frontals in 'aqua'

(3) Mobs that are 'priority' dangerous mobs (i.e. don't pull too many at once)

Castbar Cheatsheet

(1) 'MUST Interrupt' abilities have a thick orange castbar

(2) 'Good-to-interrupt' ones have a thinner yellow castbar Y

(3) 'MUST-stop-with-CC' abilities are in purple + has a voice alert 'CC'

(4) Frontals to dodge are in red + has a voice alert 'Frontal'

(4) errupt' ones have a thinner yellow castbar

IMPT NOTES

Stops are less effective in TWW vs DF, as Blizzard has changed cast queueing such that mobs will re-cast an ability when stopped. Hence you see less 'Must Stop With CC' abilities.
Blizzard is still changing dungeon abilities weekly on TWW PTR; I will update this plater dilligently - you can help me by submitting bugs/abilities to be changed via Discord link below
