Excellent post, nice to see something from a healing perspective, my main is a resto druid and this was very helpful in helping me explain things to the raid healers.

Cheers for the post

You can get away with one healer on the tank in 25-man, easy. As long as mages are spelling-stealing Nether Power, melee is interrupting when needed, the tank takes very little damage. I was originally assigned as the tank healer (Disc) along with a Holy paladin, and I ended up dropping my heals on the tank to help with the raid. If anything, the off-tanks who are gathering up the adds require more healers, I was watching their health yo-yo up and down quite a bit.

We also had a warlock banish one of the Infernals, it made it a little easier for ranged DPS to focus fire: one less add to worry about, at least for a little while.

Overall, an easy but mildly chaotic fight.

We oneshot it on 10-man last night, didn’t have enough people online to try 25-man.

Is the Spinning Pain Spike somehow avoidable? My priest was fully topped off at around 21k hp but it oneshot me with 7k overkill. It was a critical hit though, I should have survived a normal one. I hope it won’t be a luck based ability where normal hit is OK and crit an unavoidable death (for anything non-plate).

“- Run away if you get Incinerate Flesh, as we were having a hell of a time applying enough healing to prevent the Burning Inferno from going off on that person (and a Burning Inferno in melee sucks)”

As far as I could see last night, running away won’t achieve anything with Burning Inferno. It’s an autohit on the whole raid – bit like what happens if the cubes weren’t clicked on maggy.

I was prepared last night, with Grid setup to show Incinerate flesh on someone as soon as they got it. We had people move more central so they were in range of all healers.

One Holylight, greater heal, healing wave, couple of nourishes from each healer is enough to get rid of it accounting for some crits.

Alternatively have 2-3 healers assigned for the spammage, leaving the rest to the tanks/raid as there is a lot of other damage bouncing around.

We did have one burning inferno go off. We had infernals up, a spawning mistress, and large stack of nether power on the boss. We simply didn’t have the spare healing to single target spam one person until we were back under control. The Burning inferno isn’t nice, but it is healable in a pinch.

There’s quite a funky animation the mistresses do – grabbing someone, and jumping high up in the middle of the arena. Quite easy to spot, and half a second later you’ll see someone drop to about half health on raid frames. A good one to have a quick/instant heal ready for.

Fun fight, a one-shot, but I’m sure it’ll be the cause of much practice on heroic simply because there’s so much to look out for. I didn’t even notice a Maiden’s Kiss, or the Legion’s flame personally last night, but I’m expecting them to be very noticable on heroic.

Yeah – I don’t know if the RNG gods liked us or what but we found it an easy, no death 1 shot (10 man). We didn’t really have much of an idea either and I am certain that we missed the absorb healing buff once (no-one took much damage at all from the explosion).

I think the key to this fight is add control. Get the infernals and the mistress down quickly then all you have to do is spell steal the buff and interrupt whatever you can.

Easy fight with 2 healers on 10man, just keep in range or in short running distance of the ranged dps in case they get Incinerate flesh. You can tell when the debuff is still on the player if your heals are being absorbed, so keep healing until they get overhealed.

Ummm…..yeah this fight is pretty much a joke, my guild who can barely do any Ulduar hard modes 1 shot it in 25 man with about 3 random deaths. zzzz. This new content is a joke.

We one shotted this fight today on 10 man and I’m not entirely sure why. It was certainly very healing intensive, we had some people die in Flames of the Legion and I think ultimatley it is a mistake to try and heal through that. It does a significant amount of damage (much more than the Infernals, or the Chain Fel Fire) so it can catch you unaware as a healer if somebody stands still and eats all five seconds of it.

We also had a couple of Burning Inferno’s go off which were nasty, but on 10 man are apparently much simpler because I don’t think we lost anybody to those.

We even had a couple of Fel Fireballs hit the tank which were relatively simple to heal and dispel.

I think whilst the fight is very messy and healing intensive, good DPS and 3 healers on 10 man can brute force you through it.
