4 bosses: Ragnaros, Meteor, Green Beam and Void Zone:
Raggy puts fire dot on tank, meteor summons meteor (Stack on tank), green beam you gotta avoid chaining :D and void zone you move out of.

Ok enough with the obvious shit; everyone needs Fire Protection pots here, Shadow too but in all liklehood most of the dmg you will take is gonna be fire.

Tank rotation:

This is hard to describe in words so follow these pictures: when you look at them the first time it wont make sense, so have a look at the video then this. Try to follow one tank not lookt at the overall picture

Starter positions;



Transistion one

All the tanks that were idle[E, F, H and G], at the 0:32 second mark start to move in to taunt over. Tanks who were tanking [A, B, C, D] then move to the safe spots ready to move in on the opposite boss (roughly on mark 4 ie 24seconds later at 0:56).



POSITION ONE So after 0:32 its like this:


After 24 seconds, or 0:56, the idle tanks[A, B, C, D] then move in

Transistion Two


Same again, idle tanks [E, F, G, H] move in to the opposing boss, tanking tanks [A, B, C, D] then move to idle positions of the opposing boss ready to move in 24seconds later :)

POSITION TWO 0:56


After 24 seconds, or at 1:20, the idle tanks[A, B, C, D] move in

Transistion Three


Same again, idle tanks [E, F, G, H] move in to the opposing boss, tanking tanks [A, B, C, D] then move to idle positions of the opposing boss ready to move in 24seconds later :)

POSITION THREE 1:20


After 24 seconds, or at 1:44, the idle tanks [A, B, C, D] move in

Transistion Four


Same again, idle tanks [E, F, G, H] move in to the opposing boss, tanking tanks [A, B, C, D] then move to idle positions of the opposing boss ready to move in 24seconds later :) got the hang of this yet? :D

POSITION FOUR 1:44


AND VOILA! We are back to the original positions, 1min 44seconds later. The boss debuffs are 75seconds in duration which means each tank has a 30second leeway (eg if 2-3 taunts resist, you are still fine as long as its 2/3 a rotation, not every boss :D)

This tactic is known as 2 boss rotation for tanks. For dps/healers its abit different and ill explain later. But the key to this fight is having tanks know when and where to move :P

Heres a nice little gif of it:

Just choose one color eg yellow, and follow it in the gif, thats the rotation. Moving out only AFTER an idle tank has taunted from you and ofc, moving in asap when the current tank gets his 2nd mark.

If ppl watch the video and the gif it shud make sense. Dont try to understand this post unless youve watched several videos.

Consumables: regular plus 1-2 SR pots and MENI MENI MENI Greater Fire Protection Pots

well the main problem when we tried them I think was the fact that the auras just got applied to the entire raid...of course hp was also an issue...I still doubt the encounter has been fixed
