I ran on my Shadow Priest which is the least geared but longest played character of my 3 co-mains.<br /><br />We tried a few times getting in to phase 3 pretty quickly. The tank also rotated clockwise. We choose to keep ranged in the shadow realm contrary to most strats.<br /><br />I actually found it to be no problem as I could dot on the run and stay at max range,(helps when dropping combustion zones away from group,) with my view zoomed out which helps keep an eye on orb position so you could be ready for the cutter beam.<br /><br />I tried to run as far forward toward the leading orb as possible to maximize dps time. Also threw up Vampiric Embrace to help out healing a bit. Worked pretty well and seemed fairly easy once you get in a rhythm. Good luck!Hamacushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11147694011693336911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3434954756598017230.post-85015332248392561832010-07-08T23:51:02.528+01:002010-07-08T23:51:02.528+01:00My guild kites Halion clockwise around the ring in...My guild kites Halion clockwise around the ring in the twilight realm, and because of this I found the safest place to be is between the midpoint of the circle and the boss. This keeps the death laser rotating behind you rather than chasing you, and you only need to move about once each 1/4-1/3 rotation of it(depending on how close you feel safe getting to the boss. When you do move, move parallel to the laser for best positioning.OIK2https://www.blogger.com/profile/09894708766031063202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3434954756598017230.post-34380779790007631932010-07-07T23:10:03.693+01:002010-07-07T23:10:03.693+01:00Thanks for the tips guys, and Dave, thanks for the...Thanks for the tips guys, and Dave, thanks for the moral support :)Merlothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12268596977879215079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3434954756598017230.post-52524373627471197212010-07-07T15:24:24.008+01:002010-07-07T15:24:24.008+01:00If you are 3 healing Saurfang that's your prob...If you are 3 healing Saurfang that's your problem, not enough DPS.<br /><br />If you are two healing Saurfang, one healer needs to be a pally, or have two exceptional healers. We run with rshammy + pally. Either way if DPS is not coming up to scratch you need to micro manage your mana cooldowns as it can be a real problem, particularly the last 10%. You lose a GCD a tank or a mark is in danger of dying, you need to shout out so the other healer can pick up the slack. When we were killing him first, around the 10-15% buff range I had to drop out consistently and pop a mana hymn. Once you outgear the fight it's a case of staying awake and hoping the DPS switch to the adds in time! <br /><br />If your problem lies with adds killing someone then bitch slap your DPS or your tanks, they should be taunting when they get too close to the target!<br /><br />Happy hunting!Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11472883071226789600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3434954756598017230.post-53681980711447916692010-07-06T19:52:21.319+01:002010-07-06T19:52:21.319+01:00Hey Merlot, long time reader, first time commenter...Hey Merlot, long time reader, first time commenter. I just had to say something when I heard a fellow shadow priest (in disguise as a shaman, of course) becoming demoralized.<br /><br />On those nights that nothing seems to go right, just remember the yin and the yang: Nothing can exist without it's opposite, wipe nights notwithstanding. Without banging your head on a table for four hours, one-shotting a bunch of bosses on those nights where everything comes together, or even just downing a boss for the first time, wouldn't be as awesome or satisfying. I try to remember that on the hell nights, and it usually makes me feel a bit better. :]Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11354931965756350465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3434954756598017230.post-21783871097513370702010-07-06T18:45:11.694+01:002010-07-06T18:45:11.694+01:00“Naxxramas difficulty with Icecrown heroic loot”
...“Naxxramas difficulty with Icecrown heroic loot”<br /><br />This is your problem. This is a very difficult fight, it's not remotely close to Naxx in difficulty. I think it's taken a lot of people by surprise because they thought it would be as easy as Sarth.Kevinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02457107543360888310noreply@blogger.com
