WotLK - Gun'Drak - Drakkari Colossus

First... UGGHH.

Second..
Melee groups how did you handle this one?
I think I am geared enough now to do this but the puddles rape >.<

(read some other guides on forums but more directed to shammies )

Easiest way is probably to back up in a circle dragging the elemental around while the melee DPS just spams IWT to run around behind it. Without AoE heals or 5k+ DPS each toon, you can't really stand still. :P

its a movement-fight.
you have move continiously during elemental phase. and, if it s necessary, use AoW procs for healing.
check boss debuff on your party: sometimes elemental-form boss puts a 30 sec countdown debuff.
it s a long debuff.
during transition phase, aka golem phase, heal your party till debuff is ended. then finish golem.
i use golem phase to heal max the party, then kill golem.
play elemental-phase like Krick and Ick, PoS boss: move move move. it helps keep grp alive.
check floor: pink is bad

move out of the slime. =P

I think this fight is easier on a shaman team than any other... with all the healing totems and nature resist, it is just lol.

Yeah hard to put it into words other than dont stand in the slime... move your tank and spam IWT for your dps. I have my healer following my tank as well during that phase so everyone is moving.

My tank does roughly 2400 DPS and my DPS do like 1500 (backwards I know) and i kill him after one switch (i.e hes stone man, then goes to water dude, back to stone man, I kill stone man, water man comes out and i kill water dude...

Good luck.

Only other suggestion I could make is top everyone off during the Collosus phase so you're at full when going into the Elemental phase.

You probably don't have a dedicated healer running 5 pallies but it might be something to consider to dual spec one holy and have him stand on one of the Drakkari tablets. Trying to move+heal+dps without a dedicated healer can be rough I imagine.

Trying to move+heal+dps without a dedicated healer can be rough I imagine.

heh, yeah it is fun. =p luckly AoW is insta free casting. . .
thanks for input guys I havent gone back to try it yet lol keep skipping it and doing all the other bosses =p
backwards movement looks like the way to go, guess cant be much harder than ICK.. but the dam water ele just sucks, stone form is easymode..

Another thing is the elemental doesnt seem to charge when you are against the wall. I healed a pug once and it wipe us twice by charging me. You might group melees together and strafe from the puddles; as it aggro is random when it become elemantal.
