Going for my first 80 heroic tomorrow (or so)

[Siaea]

It's interesting seeing the thoughts of different teams.

I run druid tank 3xMage Priest heals.

UK is a cakewalk. I pretty much accidentally kill everything in there and flex.

Gundrak however I was terrified to go anywhere near. That snake boss, do to tank having bad AOE threat skill (front cone only) and having no cleansing / healing totem, just scared me at first til i learned the pull. The elemental boss is a PITA. The final boss has a tendency to 1 shot my 4 cloth slaves on his impales. This isn't much of an issue anymore as my DPS finally got high enough to kill him quick.

I wish I had a single ele shaman to sub for a mage just for heroism. Such an OP buff

It took me a while to figure out the snake boss on my warrior/3 warlocks/priest team. I can burn him down now. Tonight was the first night I've managed to kill him without losing anyone! Normally I lose my priest -- the adds swarm right past my warrior and kill him.

I'm stuck on the last boss in this instance right now. I don't have enough dps to burn him down. He can *literally* one shot anyone on my team except the tank. On my best attempt I've gotten him to 30%. Once he gets to rhino form and starts randomly charging my guys die one by one, there's just nothing I can do right now. He charges for 17-18k every time, which is exactly how much health my warlocks and priest have.

I finally beat the whole instance this weekend, thanks to Hachoo's videos. Go to the 'movies' section and watch 'em, they help out a lot with placement.

How is Azjol-Nerub on Heroic? I like this short little instance on normal but I'm thinking the 2nd boss will be a beast :/ Hardanox (sp?).

[Hachoo]

Haven't done it on heroic yet but for me, boss 1 and 2 were easy on normal, its the last boss that is a coordination nightmare, but I'm going to try it soon (and of course once I have it on farm I'll video it).

Azjol-Nerub is kind of boxing hell.

I can beat it now on a consistant basis (But I can't get the 1st boss achievement or 2nd boss achievement yet).

First guy just burn down the skirmishers first, then either the caster/warrior add, then finish the watcher. Do this three times and then tank the boss near your team depending on tank (I use DK and Pally and with both I just tank him almost inside my team.

Lust and burn, drop magma and use TS. The only real concern here is the yellow adds when they die (There is only three of them I think) but a Acid DOT on anyone around them when they die and it ticks for 500/s. Not much but they stack.

I honestly couldn't tell you if it can be cleansed cause I never have to anyways.


2nd boss is pretty easy but he bugs out alot on me still (Doesn't web the doors ever). Just kill the three groups around him, wait for him to come up and web the doors and its tank and spank. Just make sure you have someone/something that can cleanse poison ASAP on your group, and when he spams acid on the floor move out of it, easy easy.


Anub Arak is the problem in this place. I ended just spacing my guys out about 10 yards from each other right in the front and placing my healer under one of roof parts. When the boss is up he is piss easy, just watch out for his pound ability (3 second cast) just back away or run through him. Its the add phases that are damn hard. You gotta kill all the non elite adds Magma/TS all around and tank/kill the elite ones. The 1st wave is easy only 2 guardians, just burn em down fast. 2nd wave is hard as there are two guardians and then two poison spitters. Again make sure you are putting your totem farm of mana/healing down along with poison totems etc. 3rd wave is the same with some extra flying non elite adds that can hit hard. The only other thing to watch for is the boss sticking his butt through the floor and impaling your team for like 7k damage and then some fall damage. I just heal through it but if your skilled enough just move each char individually back and forth to avoid it.

Azjol-Nerub is kind of boxing hell.

I can do the first boss no problem, the second boss is hit and miss for me (I think I need to work on not standing in the fire...)

Haven't tried the last guy on heroic since I am usually thinking "hey I could be clearing an entire zone in the time it's taking me to wipe on this one boss" by the time I get to him.
