Maraudon feedback (poss for wiki?)

[Kfunk]

Just finished the questing I had picked up for Maraudon and thought I'd share, possibly add some stuff to the wiki.

I completed the whole instance at 46, War / Sha / Hunter x3. There are four quests I did, though others are available that I didn't pick up. Here's the four I completed - you can pick up all of them in desolace.

Scepter of Celebras [min 41] - starts at Cavindra, dryad outside the instance on the orange side - http://thottbot.com/q7044 - reward is for a staff that ports you near Princess.
Pariah's Instruction [min 39] - starts from a centaur in southern desolace - http://thottbot.com/q7067 - reward is great for tanks, trinket that procs +25 all stats on hit.
Boss kill [min 45] - starts from a dryad in desolace, just south of Shadowprey village - http://thottbot.com/q7064 - Sword and Bow are excellent rewards for any melee/hunter.
Seed of Life [min 39] - starts from a centaur that spawns after Princess dies - http://thottbot.com/q7066 - reward is exp/money, turn it in at Moonglade.


There's a good mix of loot in here for cloth, hunters, or tanks. Fights in here start to mix in elites + non elites, and I used magma totems/explosive traps on tons of the trash pulls. A paladin tank would probably shine here. For Princess, it's basic tank and spank as long as you can handle her two dangerous abilities - aoe fear and an extremely painful short range aoe damage/knockback. I had success just calling my pets back and running away with my warrior, stance dancing to intercept/taunt (if necessary) after the aoe ended.

I did my first try yesterday with Pala, 3x Warlocks (45) and Priest (48).

I only made it to the first boss and than I had to do some work =(

I wiped badly at the slimes on the orange site and did not try it again. On the purple site it went really good. The first boss was annoying because he is teleporting and using ranged attacks. But not a big problem.

Ok...

I'm realy having problems with the Creeping Sludges.

I try to kite them with my paladin but I have trouble to AoE them down with the Fire Rain of my Warlocks.

How did you guys deal with them?

Currently I think I will just skip this side.

I got my Paladin and Priest the Scepter with the help of my 70 Mage.

[Kfunk]

They are a serious pain, I just burned them down (popped bestial wrath, arcane, multishot, everything) and stunned them with intimidations/war stomp, along with heavy healing on the war and pets. I wiped at least twice to them anyways though, the worst was when a patrol of dryads hit me while I was fighting a few of these guys, that poison-slow is just evil.

I would probably kite them backwards towards the instance entrance if I got more than 2, maybe 3 at a time.

I think I will just clear them with my mage and then swap back to my normal team.

A level 70 mage has no trouble with them (Blizzard rockz with theses slow mobs)

I've completed Marau with a 70 priest and 4x46 mages (Bah a 70, that's no fair)
I've been trying to let the mages deal with mobs and just keep them up to see when i'm getting trouble with to much incoming damage.
I burned one down before it could reach me, ran far back and waited for the next one to come in range and repeat.

First time in the room I was nuts enough to try to burn the whole room down with aoe,
but they took all aggro from my priest and died instant.

Biggest issue was finding my way in the instance,
I usually had guildies to help me find the way
