[@fleckens]

For the rolling thunder on the lightning drake you forgot to mention why it’s so dangerous, I didn’t know until I read the tooltip myself and I’m guessing as tank you probably didn’t either but the dot itself is actually not that dangerous, rather it’s the groupwide aoe damage it deals when it expires/is dispelled. I was wondering why the group took so much damage whenever it was cast and I mass dispelled it. So yeah don’t mass dispel it unless you’re sure people can survive it and also tell people not to self dispel it. One other thing I want to just clarify is that the chillstorm doesn’t really have drop off damage based on how far away you are from it, the only thing that matters is not being inside the actual aoe, which really should only be the person with the debuff for 1 or 2 ticks at most.

[@wurfbug]

Amazing guide once again! Thanks for your time and commitment to helping us learn.

[@Mindcrime1988]

Your guide is very detailed and in-depth. I really appreciate the time you took to explain everything. I just came back from a 3-year hiatus and these are the kind of guides I was hoping to find. Keep up the good work. "You don't have to run to Narnia" was an awesome comment.

[@0chriser0]

One thing you missed with the Earthshapers/Iceweavers: If there is an Ice Shield on a Mob, it is immune to any form of CC, so it is important to kick the Ice Shield so you are still able to CC the Earthshapers.

Shield buff can be purged/dispelled too!

[@slimscudtwo]

This dungeon requieres so much attention. you cannot drop it once the whole run or you just die. either bosses or trashes. it's quite insane the amount of focus everyone needs to have. especially on last boss. This is the kind of fight where it always will go wrong at some point because there is too much to manage at the same time and you can't keep track of everything (fire puddles and wind direction for exemple). Thank you for giving us tips on how to do it easier with the baits and wind direction that will help a lot !

[@Dryfter21]

Amazing guide brother, thank you!

[@thedayzadventure8470]

[@DiZzYDeNnis2k9]

A quick additional Tipp about first Boss: The AoE zone does not actually do "drop off" damage. You can drop it pretty close to the group. Just dont be inside it

[@gazm2k5]

Thanks! I was wondering this.

[@jynxycats]

That said, your healer will love you more if it isn't 5 ft from the boss, and they have more than 0 seconds to cast a spell before being sucked into the ability

[@brianhusk4593]

Still good to try and get it as far away as possible to counter the suction.

[@lovelywaz]

Monk has used (called at least four def cds), Hunter has used ... Basically his Turtle! 😂😂And one of the major issues with Turtle, that many people ignore and still call it an "immunity" is, once you have the DoT landed on you, Turtle won't do anything to absorb or even reduce the ticking damage and you WILL take full damage from the DoT. 😬😬

[@fastydave]

The final boss shouldn't require brez's to defeat. DPS running out of CD's and still not being able to be kept alive by the best healer ATM means the mechanic is hitting / ticking too hard.

[@AndersARLarsen]

Infernocore is definitely overtuned, yep.

[@alphadukagishil8234]

@@jonathanr49 except the fact of the matter is that when you're doing keys at "such" a high level - plan for excessive damage. Since my comment was a month ago, changes have happened and RLP got hard nerfed. I've already pushed a 25 this season. Even in SL people planned for higher than expected keys by using the cheat death trinket from roh -kalo in sanctum. I'm not even sure what the purpose of your comment was.

[@derek8c829]

you got me with the flying to Africa comment

[@DaBombDiggidy88]

The problem, i've found, with that last mini boss is that when he's pulled a LOT of people "blow their loads" early on him. So they'll be in down time when he gets his shield and gets ready for that cast that one shots just about everyone. looked like you had some crazy dps in this run and didn't even see that part.

[@Smoothraving]

Awesome Guide! Might actually try to time my 19 RLP key after this 😂

[@zyborc]

Nice Video. Learnt a lot. Had a few pugs yesterday and we could not finished one key . I tried m+13-15. It seems like the ranges doesnt know how to stack at the frist two bosses or to use cc. As a shaman i try everythink i can to interrupt or cc ( i think i have a lot als Enhancement) and I Healed at critical moments, but it wasnt enough to carry the keys. I think i will most likely skip this instance with pug groups because its just so hard for the healers, if the other one just tunnel dps and they suck at it too :D

[@hara.hara90]

Just a tip for the thunderhead tank buster mechanic, if you walk into it while he's casting it he does not knock you back at all.

[@NewYorkIslesJJ]

I've learned by accident if you tank the storm dragon on the opposite where you tank in the video, you don't move at all when he hits you. It might be a little raised so it acts like a wall

[@jacktihs2963]

Purge is also very handy on the circle area, on the flame dudes. P.S. just saw you added the tip, was a bit too quick, but you said that's about it in the thrash there :) DHs can do as well, but as a resto shaman, I also know the trick :-)

[@soularpowergaming]

Quazii, are you using OmniCD to track party CDs there? I don't recall seeing those in the UI video / your site.

[@Ezilii]

Hunters, Druids, Priests can remove blaze of glory from flame dancers too. It seems to be classified as magic and a rage effect. I suspect rogues, mages, and shaman could remove it too, I just have not played with or played either to verify. Arcane torrent from blood elves is amazing for getting both flame dancers in one global. As always great call outs in the master class.

[@PA288325]

Dh can also consume magic

Minor comment not just for this dungeon but for a few others like Temple, be mindful that you aren't zoomed all the way out, there always seems to be F trees blocking your view and it can really screw you over.

I play blood dk and few times I died on the second boss just because it started to cast the tank buster right after we finished an add, so the boss was standing in a fire and I couldn’t do anything, because I need to do death strikes in order to survive it on +17

[@austin4855]

For those coming later, infernocore was eventually nerfed by 20% in Jan 17 hotfix. This footage is from very early in the expansion and of course a lot of tuning still needed to be done for keys above 20 - not a lot of game testers playing at that level and without bis.

[@jonathanr49]

It needs to be nerfed by another 20%

[@zylle1993]

I didnt understand as a healer why people just got oneshot instantly on some of the destroyer packs, but now i see its because people pull all the surrounding flame dancers and no one CCs them. So the casts overlap and its a oneshot

[@getonmalvl]

How are you able to get debuffs to show on the right side of your party frames? Is that only an elvui thing? Can I incorporate it into my Vuhdo?

[@TheLocochico]

What I concluded doing the mythic+ dungeons is that Ruby Pools is the hardest and most people fail there. Partly because it's over tuned but the other part is people not knowing mechanics. Not knowing mechanics and queuing for m+ really gets on my nerves especially when I get my key demoted because of it.

[@brandoncomer6492]

the dot on the lightning drake does aoe damage to the party on dispel. DO NOT pop a personal that dispels the dot. The way that mechanic is handled is that your healer will dispel one, heal the party, and then deal with the other. You want to stagger the dispels so your healer can recover. If you pop cloak of shadows or stoneform or something at the same time you're healer dispels the other person, it will wipe your group.

Can you share your plater? :)

[@rstarrkk]

Hunter has tranq shot for flame dancer

[@jeanmartins6841]

One important note: on really high Fortfied keys, the play is actually killing Flamegullet over Thunderhead, because the dot will absolutely one shot on a 22+ fortified when dispelled, and on Flamegullet at least you have a chance to kill if the dps is high enough before everyone dies

[@punkydunks]

Thunderhead is still manageable with proper defensive CD rotations, have done it up to 23 before the recent nerfs. Evoker with Zephyr makes it a lot easier to handle, as well as having an extra magic dispel like Lock or Priest so you don't have to struggle healing through the 2nd DoT that you can't remove due to dispel cooldown. Important to note as well for fortified: lust whichever dragon you pull. Thunderhead lust on pull, Flamegullet lust at 50%. Personally I prefer groups doing Thunderhead because I have all my CDs available, whereas on Flamegullet I'm probably already strapped from the ele's inferno casts (though this may be less applicable post Inferno nerf), and healing the tank is much more stressful on Flamegullet.

[@Jaredius]

I don’t have a regular m+ team, I pug and this dungeon is an absolute mess rn. Everyone blames the Rogue for not kicking uninterruptible, unavoidable aoe dmg. “Rogue you need to kick”…”I am look at the logs”.

[@Roxomus]

Why do we even have to deal with brez on the last boss anyway! It's clearly overtuned into oblivion. This key is just a +21 and damage is equivalent to late mythic raid bosses except you only have one healer to protect 3 hp nukes. There needs to be a 30-40% nerf to this or elder players at 421 avg ilvl would still pray for brez because certain classes just don't have the necessary defensives.

[@arthas_stormr8ge877]

It’s a shame these dungeons almost make B rez a must have. I know it’s crazy to say, but doing 15’s and higher not having a B rez is basically throwing the key.

[@thanorodd5663]

Lust too. It encourages class diversity. If classes did not have must-have tools that bring needed utility to a party, you could just sim the highest DPS class and stack 3 of them in every group. Having b-rez, bloodlust, certain buffs and other abilities gives a class value above and beyond the DPS meter. Obviously this doesn't always work out perfectly - for example RDruid is extremely good right now regardless - but the point is that it is healthy for the game, when the mechanics of difficult content encourage you to select a variety of classes for different reasons, rather than just "the best"

[@SoundlessFantasy]
