Shared health pool: 10-man 8.37M 25-man 33.5M

3 mobs, and an orb that jumps to one everyone 45 seconds. Only the one with the orb in him can be hurt, but all 3 need to be tanked the entire fight.

10-man: 2 tanks, 3 healers, random dps.
25-man: 2 tanks, 6 healers, random dps.

Prince Valanar is in the center and is always the first to have the orb. He summons Kinetic orbs which slowly fall to the ground unless they are being damaged. Melee pets make great babysitters for these. He does Shock Vortex which places a circle of white crap on the ground. Stay out of it. When Empowered (i.e. has the orb), he does Empowered Shock Vortex. 4.5 second cast centered on him. Get away from him and spread out.

Taldaram is on the right. He does Glittering Sparks in a frontal cone targetted on a random member. Mass Dispel if it hits a bunch of melee. Otherwise just heal through it. Flame Orbs target a person, kite them around as long as possible. Empowered Flame Orbs need to be kited as well, but others need to follow it as well to absorb some of the damage before it explodes.

Keleseth is the last and all he does is spam Shadow Lances. He can be tanke by a traditional tank or by a ranged. Blue/Purple balls spawn called Shadow Nucleus. These need to be agro'd by the Keleseth tank and not killed. They provide 35% resistance to shadow each and they stack. You should always have at least 3 on you at any given time since his Empowered Shadow Lance hits for 80k. They also cause a DoT on the tank that needs to be healed through.


Easiest way of of doing this is to have a tank grab both Valanar and Taldaram, and another 'tank' (traditional or ranged) grab Keleseth. Use a CD on Keleseth tank until he gets a couple-few orbs, then just make sure it's melee out during Empowered Shock Vortex(ala Prince from kara with a bit of Gruul's thrown in), kite the fire balls, and keep the Kinetic Orbs from hitting the ground. That's it.

Get your fellow raiders to come read this thread!

If we kill them within 3 'real' attempts, 1000g to a /roll. If an attempt was fubared by weird agro on the Nucleii or knockback bugginess, it won't count.


No saying we're gonna range tank, but good view anyway:



Another good view:

Thank goodness for a fight with no slime, no ooze and no questionable apendages sticking out of anyone's head.

This looks like fun ... I'm sure there is someone better suited but if not I'll volunteer to range tank

LMAO!

/bump for a good read and or view

Did we want to use a Warlock to tank Keleseth or just use an OT? This info is from MMO champion head to the site for a better view.
