Execution and Setup
There doesn't seem to be any enrage timer for this encounter, and not any soft enrage mechanic either. This fight is all about staying alive. You want to kill the boss before too many people die.

Tanks: 2
Only 2 tanks are needed for this encounter.
Classes are irrelevant.

Healers: 5
We recommend using 5 healers for this encounter.
Use talents for burst healing and mobility.
As usual a balanced healer setup is always a safe bet for any fight.

DPS: 13
There is a lot of movements on this encounter, use classes and talents that are suitable for this.
A good balance between ranged and melee dps is recommended.

Strategy
This fight contains of 3 different phases, and they switch depending on his health %. This is the order when the phases begins: Smart Stampers (100%), Searing Plates (85%), Smart Stampers (70%), Regular Stompers (55%), Smart Stampers (40%) and rotating between Searing Plates and Regular Stampers (25%).

I really recommend reading the written guide i linked above because they added nice pictures about the (new) mechanics

Class Tips

-Druid
Use Stampeding Roar when gathering up for the Smart Stampers.
You can Displacer Beast through Searing Plates.
-Healing Priest
Discipline is very good for this fight, pre-shield the Body Slams.
Have Archangel ready for the Body Slams.
- Hunter
Talk to your healers. You should use Aspect of the Fox if they need to use Tranquility or Divine Hymn, or just heal a lot in general when there is movement.

Add more info if you want!

Bump!

I made some shitty pics for people, for an easy view and minimal movement during the NORMAL stomper phase. As after todays raid, the Smart stompers, became a non-issue for most of us.

Anyhow check these out and if you are able to understand them, good for you! If not..well.. Make sure to fasten that safety helmet! Now who's a good boy? Yes you are, yes you are! ^^

This shows the eight, 'safespots' without any stompers activated. This is where you WANT to move your grp, before the Normal stompers begin. When you are in either of these Zones, it will be a simple matter to avoid anything coming for you.


This is Example One, for when there are Stompers on their way down.. yeah I really made this so easy even kindergarten kids would enjoy it (=


Example Two


Example Three


If anyone gets hit by 'Normal' stompers after viewing this, I mean Cmon people! As you have just seen, it does not matter where any stompers will hit. There will always be a SAFEHEAVEN 1 - 3 feet away from where you're full group should be stacking.

GL & HF, Twim is leaving you until the 18th of May, so you will have to kill this boss and Flamebender without me. Make sure to get some progress on Thogar aswell, so you can boost me for those when I'm back. Take care!

P.s Seriously hope noone takes offense to this post, if you do. I guess you just have to hate me, not ment to offend anyone.

Well Done !

Idd. smooth job. Looking forward to tonights raid!
