Strategy Guide

FIGHT OVERVIEW
  • This fight has only one phase.

  • It's a kind of PvP fight.

  • The mobs take 75% less damage from AoE. The default strategy is to work with kill priorities.

  • In 10 men raid, you fight 6 randomly picked champions (with 2 healers) while in 25 men raid you'll fight 10 (with 3 healers).

  • You shouldn't need to know all the Champions abilities so we only list here the most important ones.

Healer Champions

You should always kill the healers first. While you focus a healer, the others must be CC'ed and interrupted too.


We recommend this kill order:

Restoration Shaman > Restoration Druid > Disc Priest = Holy Paladin


The Holy Paladin uses Divine Shield and cancels your burst window. The Restoration Druid can be banish thus giving you time to deal with it later.

Physical Champions

We think most of the melees are more annoying than the range. They become the priority after the healers.


We recommend this kill order:

Enhancement >Rogue > Hunter = Warrior > Ret = DK

If you have a DK or a Rogue, they can try to bring to the side one of the melee champions and keep them busy and CC'ed to limit their annoyance.

Enhancement Shaman
NPC: Shaabad - Broln Stouthorn
СПОДЕЛИ ЛИНК
Totems

The Shaman is annoying with his totems, it's a good priority target to take down first.


He uses Healing Stream Totem, Windfury, Tremor and Searing Totem.
