Jademcian at Jade’s Forest: Figured I’d do a quick summary of the three raid days as of the 5.2 patch landing. The patch went out Tuesday, as did the raid instance, Throne of Thunder. Several of us had been on the PTR, so there wasn’t too much issue in the first section or with the trash pulls.
Unfortunately I didn’t have the foresight to keep my twitch stream or fraps files from the trash. The basics of the information you need to know about the infamous bridge trash is to pull one ghost back at a time. Let your debuff fall off before you pull the next ghost. Hunters are excellent for going ahead and misdirecting one of these back to the group, because if we get the attention of the second one we can just feign it off. The first mob will still go to the raid, but the second one will reset. Not sure how effective this would be on the first bridge since the wind blows sideways, but it works great for the second bridge. Disengage back on if you ever get blown off by a spirit.
First boss is JIN’ROHK
I was playing as BEAST MASTERY
Summary of the fight is to stand on the edge of the pools as they expand. Run the orbs out if they’re targeted on you. Don’t run an orb over a fissure. Don’t let an orb hit you while in a pool. Stack in the center for healing cooldowns during storm. There’s nothing hunter specific here, just a straight single target burn. You’ll notice my Skada is off. Stampede was causing lag issues with combat log parsers on the first day.
