Gundrak

[Meathead]

Gundrak is a fun and easy instance im lvl 75 and its for 76-78 ive done the first 2 bosses but havent finished it yet still going thru just wanted to say that is a nice instance :P

Update: Drakkari Colossus is hard for MB when he turns in to a water ele it just nukes my guys down will keep trying.

Funny, same here right now! I'm waiting for my earth elementals' CDs before I'll give the Colossus another shot. I was so close last time :-), lvl 75 now.
The "first" two bosses (Moorabi and Slad'ran) were a mere spank & spank more.

Got any strat's on him for us?

Don't know the specifics to your setup, here's how I try:

- EM, lightning shield

- 5x healing stream
- 1 wrath of air, three grounding totems, nature resistance totem (thanks to Ellay, see this thread)
- 1 totem of wrath, four searing totems
(sort of my standard layout)
- stoneskin, earthbind, strength of air, 2 earth elementals (this usually initiates the fight)

- bloodlust, trinket
- flameshock, lava, lb, lb etc.

I need to cross-heal after some 3 dmg casts; when one earth elemental is down I cast the next and so on.

When he becomes immune TAB over to his elemental spawn, that guy hurts. I may have to spread out to avoid some AoE damage.

He's level 78 and it's a tough fight for level 75 shamans, but I suppose he is well doable still. Had the "last" elemental phase down to 14%...
I'll keep trying and experimenting, for those nice q-reward boots alone^^.

Yea im running Pally and 4Shammys guess its more of a burst

Update: Thanks to Ellay's advice the colossus is cake now.
-> nature resistance totem ftw

I luv Gundrak for the xps - been running it since 75 at ~ 325k/hr (no bosses/looting). Not exciting but relatively quick compared to other instances.

Woohoo!
I'm so happy, just cleared Gundrak non-heroic with five level 77 elemental shamans.
In this run I killed all bosses on the first attempt.
The last boss is tough but he can be nuked -- at last.
Woohoo!

Nice, I tried the last boss in there while i was leveling 75-77 and he just seemed to brutal. What did you do here, anything special?

Also I liked how his rhino rider guards were actually harder then the other bosses in the zone, lol

I position my chars in the middle of the round platform to set up the totems -- this way they are all in their range and still profit from 5x healing stream when moved back and spread out against the wall/fence. So my main walks up to get in range to pull the boss with a shock spell. Then I set the earth elementals and start nuking like hell. One character died from the rhino attacks, but I ankhed him and just kept nuking. I was surprised how easy it was compared to the countless unsuccessfuly tries I had at level 76.

As for the rhino rider guards, you can pull one at a time. Make sure you're standing with your backs to a wall. Then what I did was simply thunderstroming them on round robin while continuing with my dps-rotation. I use chain lightning whenever possible to harm the rider too. Quite easy and safe when done that way imho.

Hope this helps.
