Notable Trash Mobsboss-specific trash mechanics will appear under the boss the trash is linked to

Bloodmaul Enforcers Beatdown the tank, requiring heavy tank healing. Non-tanks should stay behind them to avoid being heavily damaged or killed by Crush.

Bloodmaul Geomancers buff themselves or allies with Stone Bulwark, which can be offensively dispelled or interrupted.

Bloodmaul Ogre Mages cast powerful Lava Bursts that should be interrupted. The tank will take heavy damage.

Bloodmaul Overseers channel Subjugate on random players; this can be interrupted during the cast or channel, or dispelled from the targeted player. Interrupt or move out of Suppression Field.

Bloodmaul Slavers cast Slaver's Rage on themselves or their allies. Dispel the Enrage effect with abilities such as Shiv, Soothe, or Tranquilizing Shot.

Bloodmaul Warders cast Frightening Roar, which will deal moderate party-wide damage and Fear players if not interrupted.

MagmolatusNotable Trash Mobs:Vengeful Magma ElementalMolten Earth ElementalUnstable Magma ElementalSearing Ember

Players should focus on the Vengeful Magma Elemental, who summons additional Searing Embers, then the Molten Earth Elemental.

The Molten Earth Elemental's Lava Arc is a cleave that leaves a DoT effect, so tanks should be sure to keep the Elemental faced away from the party.

Players should also dodge the boulders from the Molten Earth Elemental's Volcanic Eruption. Unstable Magma Elementals slowly deplete their own health and explode when they reach zero health, damaging nearby players and enemies alike.

The Ogres are fighting the Earth Elemental, which gives players a few moments to set up single-target CC on the Ogre Mage and/or Magmabinder. Prioritize the Molten Earth Elemental, then the Warder, and be sure to interrupt the Warder's Frightening Roar.

Both remaining enemies cast powerful Lava Bursts on the tank, so the tank should use cooldowns when these enemies are active, and healers should be prepared for heavy tank damage.

Magmolatus Tips & StrategyMagmolatusForgemaster Gog'duhForgemaster Gog'duh

Taunt Calamity and tank it near the boss for cleave damage

Interrupt Calamity's Firestorm ability

Switch to Ruination and Calamity adds and kill them quickly

Tank damage is higher than party damage, unless Calamity is allowed to channel Firestorm

Dispel Dancing Flames from affected players

Move away from Magma Barrage and Shatter Earth effects

Magmolatus

Step out of the Slag Smash area of effect during its cast to avoid being stunned

Move Magmolatus away from nearby Magma Barrage pools to avoid taking high damage

This phase is a good time to use DPS cooldowns and Bloodlust/Heroism/Time Warp, if available

Switch to Molten Elementals and kill them quickly

Interrupt the Molten Elemental's Magma Barrage and Volcanic Tantrum casts

Move away from Molten Impact locations and Magma Barrage pools

Spread out to avoid unnecessary movement for Molten Impact

Party damage can be quite high during this phase, so use cooldowns such as Revival and Aura Mastery here

Move away from Molten Impact locations and Magma Barrage pools

Use AoE and cleave abilities on Captured Miners

Heroic and Challenge Mode Difficulties:Earth CrushFerocious YellRoltallNotable Trash Mobs:SlagnaLava SpitLava SpitRoltall Tips & StrategyRoltallFiery Boulder

One boulder will roll down the left side, one down the middle, and one down the right, but the order in which this occurs is random each time (e.g. it could be Left-Right-Middle, Middle-Right-Left, etc.).

There is a visual indicator of where the next boulder will spawn to allow players to preemptively position themselves to avoid taking damage and being stunned by the boulder as it passes by.

The best technique for avoiding the boulders is to stand on the half of the bridge closest to Roltall (if ranged) and move only as far as necessary to avoid taking damage from the boulder, trying to stay as close to the center of the bridge as possible.

Heat WaveHeat WaveBurning SlagFiery Boulder

Hold threat on Roltall

Avoid being hit by the Fiery Boulders

Use damage throughput cooldowns and Bloodlust/Heroism/Time Warp at the beginning of the encounter when you can stand still and do the most damage

Use cast-while-moving abilities, such as or , during Heat Wave

Avoid standing in Burning Slag pools, and use a personal damage-reduction cooldown if you cannot avoid standing in Slag in order to dodge Fiery Boulders

Players struck by Burning Slag or a Fiery Boulder will take heavy damage and require strong single-target healing

Use party-wide damage reduction cooldowns during the Burning Slag/Fiery Boulders overlap

Use healing throughput cooldowns to recover after Heat Wave

Use cast-while-moving abilities or instant spells during Heat Wave

Avoid standing in Burning Slag pools, and use a personal damage-reduction cooldown if you cannot avoid standing in Slag in order to dodge Fiery Boulders

Heroic and Challenge Mode Difficulties:Scorching AuraFiery BoulderFiery BoulderGug'rokkNotable Trash Mobs:

They are rooted for the duration of this cast, so players must simply move away from the area of effect to avoid taking heavy damage.

Flamespeakers also frequently cast Exploding Flames, which should be interrupted.

If Exploding Flames is allowed to cast, healers should expect spiky single-target damage on the player closest to the Flames.

Gug'rokk Tips & StrategyGug'rokkMolten CoreMolten BlastMolten CoreMolten BarrageMolten CoreMagma EruptionUnstable SlagEmpowered Flames

Move Gug'rokk in a predictable direction around the room as the room fills up with Magma Eruption

Interrupt Molten Blast when possible

Damage Unstable Slags that spawn nearby

Quickly switch to Unstable Slags and kill them

Use snares (such as Earthbind Totem or the Frostbolt debuff) to prolong the Slags' travel time to the kilns

Interrupt Molten Blast when possible

Remove stacks of Molten Core with offensive dispels

Move out of Magma Eruption's area of effect

This fight is very heavy on party damage, especially each time Magma Eruption is cast

Use cooldowns to recover from Molten Barrage or Empowered Unstable Slags, if necessary

Otherwise, use cooldowns whenever an Unstable Slag's path forces players to move through Magma Eruption

Can do solo @ lvl 100 on normal with proto-paladin (alliance). Great for those blues to cash in when you need gold. Will note, fingers sore now. Will do it another time to see if can solo Heroic.

Guide is good, I just ignored all the assignment stuff and went right in.
