Failed Angler?

    The CoD raid instance, the Angler. has 2 lockouts, failure and success (as many of the zones have). with the failure being 12 hours and the success being 5days 20 hours.

    We ran around it for while. it seems the way to get the "failed" lockout is to kill all the crabs (2-3 AoEs are enough to really take them down) and then kill Angler.

    The "right" way is to not kill any of the crabs and fight Angler.

    the fight happens the same no matter what, Angler turns from a x2 to a x4 after a certain point in time and you fight him as you normally do in both cases. he drops the same loot in both cases as well.

    So why would anyone do the much harder way (no AoEs) to kill something for the same loot for a 6 day lockout when you could just AoE stuff down and do it again in 12 hours? Seems quite backwards
