TLDR HALION Normal + Heroic Guide - Ruby Sanctum Guide WOTLK Classic

A quick guide for Halion and The Ruby Sanctum 25 Man Normal and Heroic the final raid of Wrath of the Lich King Classic.
A guide for Pugs, Lazy Raiders, and people who don't want to sit through a 10 minute boss guide to know what to dodge.

[@drebinglock1895]

Thank you for posting all these guides throughout Wrath classic. Really easy to consume.

[@BrettStefani]

Glad you found em useful mate, hope to see you back for the Cata guides, if you're continuing

[@darthimperious1594]

God Bless you for giving guides that are succinct, to the point, and fast enough that I don't get bored and lose interest.

[@BrettStefani]

Cheers mate!

[@Dwesk]

That's the best part, I used to watch these TL;DR type guides when I first started back in late phase 1 so catching up with EOE/OS/Naxx while also being absolute noob at the game and my class was a solid undertaking, yet tabbing out and quickly watching a short guide I would usually end up doing better than half the zug zug DPS mechanics-wise lmao. I assume my previous FFXIV experience helped with the extremely basic mechanics of phase 1 but still, this is peak content.

[@MrSirZa]

phenomenal guides, Brett. Exactly what is needed, to the point. I'll forever use and recommend your videos for WoW

[@BrettStefani]

Glad to hear it mate, cheers!

[@boomsatsuma1544]

Used to watch insanely long tankspot vids back in the day. You manage to say everything they did in 2 mins. 😊

[@BrettStefani]

Cheers mate, glad you find em useful. They are one of the main resources I use to make these actually.

[@TastyScotch]

Guildies arent about to bother with a 10min guide, so this video is their only hope 😂 thanks in advance!

[@BrettStefani]

No worries, and GL mate!

[@embe2268_]

exactly lmao.

[@rattsy]

yeap. only smart ppl want comprehensive info about the boss. guilds are mostly not.

[@Baldoora]

Hey man, thanks for all the guide videos that got me through wrath. If you choose to not do Cata I just wanted to say that your content will be missed dearly. Have a good one!

[@BrettStefani]

I appreciate it mate, but I will be continuing with Cata, do not worry yourself

[@Andrey_Vakov]

Fast and straight to the point without unnecessary shit. Thanks!

[@iamnatman]

Thanks for another awesome guide

[@BrettStefani]

I appreciate the support my guy

[@ethelion5000]

I felt that mages "can u fuk off" energy. Well done.

[@user-hc4rn4gc3u]

2:32 That's seems a good Idea to make tl;dr raid guide for SoD as well.

[@BrettStefani]

I may try, but as they aren't being PTR tested, which is how I get most information for these, it could be tricky and would depend on how much personal time I have.

[@sahidcm]

Things to mention are: Melees should make sure to hit Halion by the hind leg so as to not cause him to parry haste enrage and potentially kill your tank. Keep any attack power buff like Vindication, Demoralizing shout / roar up for all the fight. Tanks should stack 32 expertise cap on normal and 56 on HC, as this stat cap will prevent dragons from parrying your attacks, which is what causes them to mini enrage and hit faster for a second. Last thing, in 10 man HC, there's no adds in the fire realm. This is a 25 man only mechanic.

[@HarvinGaming]

thanks a lot my dude

[@BrettStefani]

No worries mate!

[@TheOneTrueOfficialLordGod]

Let's cross our fingers and hope they change their minds and give us Wrath Classic Because I don't have shadowmourne on the fobidden realms and I am NOT doing that grind again

[@BrettStefani]

Big doubt on that one, even though I think a lot would prefer it.

[@JDBob3]

0:23 you CAN interrupt Lava Gout but you need to CC the mob to successfully interrupt the Blast Nova

[@True_Bakery]

Thx bro!

[@BrettStefani]

np m8

[@roachedyourmom1357]

Not a hard fight, but a punishing one. One screw up basically wipes the raid

[@BrettStefani]

On Heroic this is true for sure. But also lots of little placement mistakes can add up too.

[@kaitomagui1189]

ah what a good expansion thx for the guides man i will be playing cata

[@BrettStefani]

I'll see you there mate

[@WorentFelix]

yeah... i love this boss mega lasers...!!!

[@acybulski555]

"and you'll all prob fkin DIE" is my fav about all ur vids

[@BrettStefani]

Gotta have the probably in there for Blood DKs, the immortal bastards

[@angahmitsu3228]

Fire group stay outside, shadow group go in portal. Am i right?.. Leader do /rw tell to get inside to dps then our group got kicked

[@BrettStefani]

Depends what Phase it was. If it was Phase 2, then everyone should go inside, only in Phase 3 should you split the raid. But harsh to kick someone for it if it was the first time

[@angahmitsu3228]

@@BrettStefani ah then im right. We are in phase 2 which mean halion is in portal.. Outside got nothing. Leader call us stupid then kicked us whole group. Hes making new raid ignoring us

[@BrettStefani]

@@angahmitsu3228 in phase 2, everyone goes inside except maybe a tank so they can get aggro when p3 starts

[@angahmitsu3228]

@@BrettStefani yeah we are dps got scolded

[@BrettStefani]

@@angahmitsu3228 because you went inside? Or because you didn't?

Death Wing looks so different

[@BrettStefani]

Lookin all purple n shit

[@dumplingshakes22]

I’m not doing crap-a-clysm again so this is my last raid bahaha

[@BrettStefani]

A shame you didn't have a good time. GL with Halion

[@josephlyons7655]

Cata... sad fucking times

[@BrettStefani]

No reason Cata Classic can't be better than the original

[@XBezerkerX]

@@BrettStefani Not sure why it would be. Crapaclysm was bad back in the day and will likely suck again. Anyway thanks for the guide, this will be my last days of Classic Era too :)

[@BrettStefani]

100% subjective. For some Cata was a great expac, for others, the worst. There are worse expacs by far and Cata when compared would probably be places in the lowe end of mid expacs. Personally I enjoyed it, the same way some people disliked Wrath@@XBezerkerX

[@XBezerkerX]

@@BrettStefani I genuinely don't know anyone who dislikes wrath, but I know Cata lost like 6M Subs back in the day, no coincedence.

[@BrettStefani]

The sub loss actually started after ICC, not during Cata. But I know people who dislike Wrath, but enjoy Cata. Its all subjective mate. One person's wrath is another person's cata@@XBezerkerX

[@CurtisD1986]

I think it would help more if you're actually demonstrating the encounters.

[@BrettStefani]

If you need raid footage, there are many guides available. For many who watch these, theres too much clutter in raid footage to actually see what people are talking about

[@aaronneal7099]

it literally gets broken down for you lol

[@NomadicFreeride]

absolutely hate this fight. shit loot too smh.
