Brawler tanking

Constructive criticism pls

So been tanking LKNM for about 1-2weeks and I’m struggling on the first 2 bosses. My ilvl is 414 pretty much +12 t9 and estateguest set bonus. Just for a rough estimate on my part.

I went online to look for boss mechanic guides what to dodge but honestly there’s nothing from either a brawler POV in what I need to actually dodge or boss mechanics.

I’m really posting here to ask for Arachandlebra mechanics because he rips me apart so bad! So if someone give me a breakdown that... would... just... be... awesome

    It was hard for me too until i made my brawler IL 423. I can tank any attack without taking much damage without using growing fury. The second boss has a debuff that locks all your skills and you wont be able to move, block or attack for x seconds until you die lol.

    Lol thanks hopefully a few more runs and me paying attention And considering my ping hopefully I’ll get the blocks and iframes down

    The best thing to do is to watch the gauge that fills. Once it's almost 100%, get some distance between you and the boss. When he rolls towards you and gets behind you, it's best to dodge back to keep the boss from turning (makes life easier for the dps). And as for the 1st boss, the only really annoying thing is the adds, which can be stunned. And the small aoe circle needs to be iframed (unable to block).
    I hope that helps...And 1 more pointer for tanks. Lilith's uppercut is a killer, and to avoid that, just watch for her 2 back to back swipe attacks. Left to right or right to left, can't remember. But she will always, immediately, follow up with the uppercut. Just jump to the side a little and you're good.
    Best of luck!

    On Arachandlebra, all attacks are blockable aside from the bar filling to 100 AOE, and the move when it jumps backwards and spits the purple venom on you. You need to iFrame the venom spit. You can also use Bull Rush to run out of the giant AOE before you get immobilized (So around 95 on the bar) ^.^
