Heigan the Unclean

I have done every boss in the instance except this and the last boss in construct, although i have finished naxx, my guys die, and well the last 5 people or w/e just dps him down very slowly and we finish, but sometimes they dont and on the last boss on construct that just cant happen..

1. has anyone done
Heigan the Unclean


2. I know people have done thaddious, what is ur strat? all I do if i get debuff i run the guy over (i have follow off during the fight), but sometimes i keep needing to change on different guys and I cant keep up, that and jumping off the ledge.. i gotta do it one by one or I will fail. (sometimes its to slow, and I will be so late for boss that I have charges all messed up.

For Hiegan, you pretty much need to bind keys to strafe left and right for your whole team - follow is too slow and you will lose toons with each sequence.

Then it's just a matter of making sure everyone is facing in the right direction and getting the timing down right.

For Heigan I found it best as being the person who is up on the platform to run out from the one corner curve left a little and run straight back. Then do a face about and run back enough the way you just came from to line the team up in a straight line. Then make sure you're AF or jamba strobe is off and you can strafe.

2. Thad is pretty easy Jumping is the harder part. Either Slowfall all your guys or jump them manually. The trick is to turn on DBM's /range feature and jsut spread out 10 yards from everyone. I character can stay on the platform you jumped from just get up on the edge. He's actually pretty easy.

Another 5boxer friend and I have cleared all 4 wings of naxx, other than grobulous its not too hateful. Most of the fights are learning the timing and such.

Good luck!!

I don't know why people say this - because it's patently not true. When I 5 boxed this with another 5 boxer friend - he controlled his tank on heigan, and he put his 4 shamans on follow on me (along with my followers) and I Saftey Danced the fight with 8 on follow.

Follow works just fine if you learn the path. And this was back in Feb before you could outgear the instance, so it took us 3 run phases to down him. Basically you need to zig zag a bit through the run - and in the end sections make sure you stay moving (stopping will surely get your followers killed).

As has been said, Thaddius on 10 man has always been a joke since there's 0 reason to stack charges. To make the jump easier for me, I'd just swiftness pot all my guys and run over the ledge and spread out and set up before he goes active (on 25, I'd end up stacking what I could - safely, without sacrificing dps).

for heigan i'm lucky enough to be able to just leave my toons on follow (dance achevement : CHECK) .. if your ping is low enough its still very important to know exactly were the wave zones end cuz your lead has to stand exactly @ the border of the next zone cuz the toons need one or two secs to start running + you have to practice the turnaround at the end zones a bit. if you run to far your toons will die.

done thaddius many times now with 4 toons .. but well im a lazy bastard so only the one with full t8+ raid gear runs and the other ones just stand at the plattforms or behind one of the camps. i done the running once with all but its just too nervewrecking (bossmods and 4 seperate run keys/interact with target help alot here .. but it isnt worth the effort.)


next id => fuzes vs trial of the crusader 25 ... somehow p3 of beasts and twins scare me ;/

Ive only had luck with the "strafe everyone" method, but the "follow zig zag" method may be a bit safer. I've had issues where after 2 runs back and forth, my toons aren't quite lined up, and have been hit by the waves, and have died. I might try the follow method next time I'm boxing naxx.

Thaddius, I just slowfall/levitate to make jumping down easier (make a macro /targetraid cast levitate, it will toggle through each toon in the raid other than the toon casting it, manually cast the spell on the toon doing it, or if you have multiple toons capable of doing it, they should eventually cast it on each other.)

Then, I'd pick your highest DPS toon, and do the gimmick, stacking the buffs for both that toon, and the rest of the raid. Unless of course you are playing with only boxers. Even if the DPS is slow and he enrages, it's not necessarily a wipe until everyone is dead, he will one by one kill each member of the raid, giving you a few more seconds of button mashing goodness. (or have a holy pally bubble/taunt to buy some more time, or any other sort of emergency backup tank)
