The boss tank in the german video also walks left/right and not up/down.

Even if it's old content, a little write-up for future "farming":

Tanking: Max distance 60y. Plan with 40y.

When spear goes out, Riplimb tank _moves_ away from the impact location in
a 90 degree angle (looking at Shannox). If possible put a slow on Riplimb.
This way you reduce the time circling time of the Shannox tank to remove
the stacks.

Circling: When Riplimb is about to return the spear you start running in a 90
degree angle (looking at riplimb). Get a Body&Soul shield or pop some sort of speed
increase to outrun him. If done properly Riplimb wont be able to return the spear, increasing
the time without a stack application (= Stacks drop).

DPS:
Whenever a Crystal Prison trap goes out. Park your ass such that the trap is between you
and Rageface's current position. Result: He will be trapped as soon as he facerapes you.
Move away.

Healing:
Do NOT park yourself away from the dps. You have to stand between the Shannox and the
Riplimb tank. Not on the edge. If you stand somewhere far away and get faceraped, you're dead.

Cheers,
Andreas
