This is another tanking post on simplifying Druids job in a raid. Today's lesson, the flame watcher of VOA.
To start with I should put in you need a good geared healers and dps, around 3k ish
Burning Fury debuff (which increases damage taken by the entire raid by 5% and stacks another stack every 20 seconds.) This is the reasoning for the dps, requirements. You need to be able to kill em, before that debuff kills you.
I have found the best way to tank this is a slow circle around the giant hexagon. If healers are dying you might instruct them to up their particle density or stay kind of away from the middle area, Very hard to see the fire. This Requires 2 tanks but only one of you should be top on threat, other in 2nd.
Around the middle of the fight when the debuffs have been stacking majorly, its time to get your frenzied regen, lifeblood(herbing hot), barkskin
Use these during a spell called Meteor Fists. You and the other tank and whoever else is in front of the boss when this goes off is going to take alot, ALOT of damage. My group did it with myself and another bear, easy as hell on the healer. Ive heard with other tanks they need to put another class up there like a dk with frost up for a sec or something like that.
During the final say 5% or so of life, The tanks take alot of damage, when it happens be ready, at least with barkskin, and hope the healing is there.
Its a fairly easy tank and spank, just have to have the dps.
