Splitting ice cleave trick (For Tos-DI and such)

[Chiv]

Might be well known already but didn't see any post (I'm kind of bad at searching tho)

For mages taking splitting ice on the Demonic Inquisition fight that are spending more time downstairs than upstairs because ice lances cleaving onto bone saw / fel squal, here's a small little trick with character positioning

Just face the target to your characters side

I just figured this out today...and I gotta admit, I feel a little bit of a dum dum for not seeing it sooner. Thanks for posting!

I feel like I remember this trick from a while ago, but had completely forgotten about it. Thank you for this!

Additional tip:
Readjust yourself before using frozen orb or cast it when the two bosses are on top of eachother again.

Would it be more ideal to take Frozen Touch for this fight instead of Splitting ice ?

No because you can cleave them in the beginning and if you can cleave even just a few times with SI it's worth it over FT. Also on Mythic you have adds that can be cleaved down. So learning the best way to not cleave when you don't want to is better practice long term.

Except that my RL want Attrigan to be tanked behind Belac.
He is aware about our situation and I'm guessing he is just doing that to mess with me #conspiration

But yea if you don't have an RL who want to screw you, this is a very effective technic props for making it a topic
