I had quite a few wipes as I worked my way through this one. One thing it showed is I had gotten lazy and sloppy, I'm switching over to green gear when stats are similar enough even if a bit lower to reduce repair costs hehe.

First Named) even though I knew i needed to move out of the earthquake i would still wipe as I wouldn't react fast enough at times . So I'm hoping all the regular instances get my skills improved and better so I'm ready for heroics .

Second Named) another couple wipes, I got mind controlled one time as I stood in the beam too long. I finally did the block one beam at the start with my tank to slow down an add forming, nuke the crap out of the boss, and then hold agro on the adds while I dps the last bit of the boss, My skill level on this fight doesn't bode well for heroic I think... but hopefully will improve.

Third Named). Another couple wipes. One time I setup my team too far away so was without heals for too long when moving boss through fire. Another time didn't get the guy out of the fire (must have just been touching edge). I also wiped on one of the fire elemental trash first time through. Subtract out my foolishness and not a hard fight .

Fourth Named) Not sure if it was mentioned, I didn't see it above , DON"T 't kill all the trash doggies. Leave Runty up. He gets an enrage buff if they are all killed and you can't kill him.

5th boss, I just dps'd through, not really hard but also a bit scared about the heroic version.

Figure I will go through and farm this a few times tonight before I move on to the other starter dungeon. I dinged 81 when turning in the final quest for the zone, so I'm guessing it will be noticeably easier now.

Oh one other issue I've had, my mage is pulling agro from my tank, never had to worry bout that in Wrath. I think part of the issue is I my main macro on my pali uses the AoE attack, so will make one for bosses using Crusader Strike. Maybe that will help.


One question I had.

On the third named do folks run through the fire letting boss hit from behind to get through faster, or back through the fire? Seems not good to give your back to a named (especially in heroic mode) but found back through was kind fo slow. Maybe need to cut the corner better.
