He has a large amount of HP, but it's a fairly straight forward fight. He will debuff the tank with a DOT that won't disappear until tank is fully healed. Does an AE frost damage spell as well. Entire group will need healing.

Comentario de Maed

Just to addon to what Enasima said, the Frost AoE attack is not directional -- it won't help if the tank faces him away from the group.

Comentario de Maed

Just to addon again, he goes enraged at the end of the fight so be prepared for that.

Comentario de badmedicine

His frost attack cannot be avoided with line of sight. However, you can out range it. It has about a 40 yard range and a long enough cast time that any ranged dps should be able to run out and save a bit of healer mana.

Comentario de ilovemrdoe

He gives the dot to whoever he's targetting, so don't over aggro cos it's a hell of a job to fully heal the tank and some trinket nub.

Comentario de 7560

Simple fight, but you will need good healing.

DPS classes just Nuke.

He has two AoEs, don't remember the specifics but they did hit quite hard.

Comentario de 6780

Abilites:
1.) Waterbolt Volley: Just heal/bandage through it
2.) Bleed dot: This deals quit a bit of damage and stays till the tank is dead, or fully healed. Having an off healer specifically assigned to top off the tank is recommended.

Giant crab: attack the weak point for massive damage

Comentario de 17749

Does anyone know exactly how often he puts the Bleed DoT up on the tank?

Comentario de 5427

Tips for the fight:
1. Focus healing only on the Main Tank (if you have one healer as we had). Others have to use Bandage, Healthstone, Drain Life, anything you have.
2. Keep your DPS high, but _do_not_ever_ overaggro, you'll die for sure without healing what you won't get, and if the others don't have still a good DPS, it'll be a wipe. Spam feint, FD, everything.
3. His spells are not interruptible by kick, it's a waste of energy.
4. Get ready for its enrage at 20%, and do 110% DPS here.
5. The fight is not over when the boss dies, keep healing those who have the bleeding effect. It's not funny when the melee dies just after the boss ;p

Heroic: A relatively easy fight, he has the same abilities (the debuff which does not expire unless healed to full), and the water bolt AoE. The water bolt doesn't hit for too much, maybe around 1500. easily healed through.

He hits pretty hard, so I advise you have 2 healers healing for this fight.

He has around 170k hp in heroic

Comentario de 14741

Heroic:

My guild just did this with one priest +1200 healing, 2 mana pots. And I was tanking with 12,000 base armor (14,000 HP too) + a 2500 armor 2 minute pot and we downed him on the 3rd try. A few times he got an unlucky crit when I was at around 30%. Our dps was a decent geared hunter, fire mage with around 1000 +dmg and a full tier 2 rogue.

Comentario de 39994

Main healed this guy in heroic as a Holy pala, 11k mana. I had to spam Holy Light rank 11 while rest of the party nuked him down within 40-50 secs. We had a druid tank with barely 10k HP buffed so it was a real challenge. An innervate just before the fight, a Mana pot and some trinkets and it paid off. Second time I healed our tank, 14k hp this time, together with another holy pala, it was a piece of cake :)

Comentario de 16645

Heroic tips for healers:

either have
a) one healer with best pre-karazhan gear available (incl. mooncloth stuff). I'd say +1400 healing without gimping your mana regen should be enough.
b) two healers

in both cases mana pots and other mana regen stuff are a must.

I tanked it as bear with 15k HP and armor and it hit me for 2000-2100 every 2 seconds (+ waterbolt for 1500).

Use your biggest and slowest heals only, all the time. Don't bother with HoTs or other members of the party. You'll have a hard time healing the tank alone.

He has exactly 165,000 HP so it takes a while to burn him down.

Comentario de Jonse

He drops the +11 healing and 2mp/5s gem on heroic now, Dropped this morning.

Comentario de 61552

Tanked this heroic, feral druid 15k hp 20k armor with one healer, had bleed debuff on entire fight.

Comentario de firstborn

I had no problem on heroic as a resto sham just popping a couple big heals into my feral tank to top her off. Down ranked heals to Rank 4 for most of the fight. No need for healing pots or consumables, did use NS once to save the tank after a chain heal on the DPS but other than that was not at all a difficult fight to heal.

Comentario de 88178

I've been through Slave Pens a few times now on my Paladin, to get the sword from the first boss.

Fighting Rokmar is fun as a tankadin, holding aggro isn't as hard as other bosses.

The bleed effect is easily bubbled out of, but don't forget to cancel the bubble fast and pull aggro again.

Comentario de Raziel

We just killed him last night on normal mode and he enraged when he was low on HP. So he doesn't only enrage in heroic mode.

Comentario de 135745

There is an easy way to get rid of the bleed effect. When the fight is over whoever has the bleed effect should sit down and eat, then take off all there + stam gear ^.^

Comentario de Brodaty

The encounter can be reseted. If things going bad, just jump into nearest lake.

Comentario de 134033

Its a giant crab, attack its weak points for massive damage!

Comentario de PMac

As a DPS class, make sure to blow all your cooldowns when he hits enrage. Don't worry too much about taking aggro, once he hits enrage you can usually down him if all your DPS in the group blow all their cooldowns before he becomes much of a problem.

Comentario de Thottbot

this guy hits like a train

and has lots of health

Comentario de Thottbot

Just killed him, Wiped twice, He really is HARD, Overheal all the time, Thats about it also he does a really nasty AoE attack that does ALOT of dmg, So try to stay away from its range healers ;)

Comentario de Thottbot

This is an endurance fight.

I've tanked this several times now as a Feral Druid, though the strat is the same for any tank. Some claim this is easier for druids to tank because their hit pools are ridiculous and give a bigger buffer. Others (including me) disagree, because it takes too much mana to restore them to full health during the fight. Your milage may vary, but the strategy is the same for all classes.

Wait for the boss to path to the far end of the hallway and kill the lobster group and the naga group closest to the boss. This will give you room in the corridor to safely complete the fight.

Send in the tank 1st and have him run under the boss, right between his legs and out the other side. This forces the boss to turn around and face down the hallway and away from the party. This neutralizes his cone-AOE poison/nature bolt.

Tank gathers aggro, and all healers focus on the tank. ALL HEALERS. If a class can heal, they should, even if this leaves only one or two for DPS.

The reason for this is a debuff called Grevious Wounds, which the boss sticks on the tank; this debuff is a bleed effect that cannot be removed which ticks for upwards of 600 every two seconds, in addition to any other DPS the boss puts out.

Grievous Wounds is the reason people fail this fight.

This damage does not seem to be mitigated. The only way to get rid of this debuff is to restore the tank to 100% health; i.e., overheal the heck out of him. Do it quickly, or the fight is over. Tank should continue to hold aggro and call out anytime he gets debuffed. No movement or kiting is necessary.

Keep the tank healthy and wear the boss down. That's it. Simple fight.

Comentario de Thottbot

Wiped the first time. Second - dead easy.
As a priest I made sure our tank was never under 70% health and ran prayer of healing when ever he hit with his AoE. You need to make sure the tank is with in range for the prayer aswell. Like he said - as long as you keep the tank on full the dmg he dishes out isn't that hard to heal.
I would, how ever, recomend that you have atleast 2 healers on this boss (if you're a druid or paladin)

Comentario de Thottbot

My group did this fight with a tank (warrior), pally *Holy, hunter, mage and rogue.

First off, I would recommend another healer right away, we wiped 3x before we could get it right.
I found it difficult to heal the entire group by myself, because the tank took a lot of dmg. Bangages will help a lot here if you are the only healer.
For ranged attks, try to get at max range and have the tank keep the boss by the cave with him turned away from party. Others can stand next to rock wall and try to back out of his frostbolt range or around the corner. (worked 1/4 of the time : ( but it is something)

If you have a pally (which I would recommend with another healer) use frost resist aura, that cut dmg in half. Bring frost resist pots to make it even easier, if you only have one healer.

Comentario de Thottbot

We did this special...
Group: Hunter, Rogue, Warlock, Priest, Paladin.
After letting me (the paladin) tank and only the priest heal, we couldn't avoid the bleeding effect, and since no one is specced for optimal healing we needed a solution...
Hunter-pet tank! We let the boar of the hunter tank while paladin and priest healing. Still was hard and I had to use Lay on Hands to stop the bleeding after a while, but we made it. Pretty lame having a pet tank, but it worked.

Comentario de Thottbot

He can hit anyone in range with his cold/poison cone, so you're putting the tank further out of range from the healer, and Rokmar closer. Two healers is the best strategy for this fight.

Comentario de Thottbot

Wiped 5 times at him so we just skipped,we had only 1 healing class...

Comentario de Thottbot

I absolutly hate this guy. I have only killed him once...luckily he dropped the cloak and the Druid was cool and passed to me even though he didnt have to. I am sure he is really hard because most people are spec'd differently than usual but jesus this thing hits like a mac truck and pwns face. I will come back to this pile of $%^& when I am 70 and prot specd...then we'll see how tough he is.

That is all.

Comentario de Thottbot

...the Coldwhisper Cord. Has anyone actually seen this drop? Thot says 3 / 1000+ which would make this really rare. Is it that rare or is Thot a bit screwed up on the count or is this a heroic mode drop? Someone please let me know. Thanks.

Comentario de Thottbot

did this boss last night and was easy i jsut tanked him far enough away so my healer didnt get hit and he went down quik...he dropped the Xbow and i got it heh

Comentario de Thottbot

The Bleed effect he puts on the tank DISAPPEARS IF you heal the tank to FULL health. When the tank gets the bleed effect, spam g-heals/holy light/ whatever a few times to get the tank to FULL (100%) health, and the buff disappears. He's easy if you remember that, very difficult if you don't.

Comentario de Thottbot

Easy Kill.

used 70 bear druid / 63 mage / 66 lock / 62 war / 64 resto shaman

Casters stayed at max range.
62 war dropped halfway

Just kept overhealing..and kept mana totem up.
Casters bandaid`d themselves.

Used mana tide w/ ~8500 mana

V/R Glowstick
64 Restoration Shaman (Undermine)

Comentario de Thottbot

this guy isnt that hard with a good grp, my group was:

63 prot warr

62 demon lock

62 holy priest

62 ice mage

64 marks hunter (me)

Comentario de Thottbot

Did this with a
-Shadow Priest
-Elemental Shaman
-Fire Mage
-Feral Druid
-Arms/Fury Warrior

We had the warrior tank and the priest spam heal him while the shaman spot healed the others, the druid's innervate was very nice; worked like a charm!

Comentario de Thottbot

61 paladin couldn't keep me (63 feral druid) up for his life >.>
2 tries, no chance.. didn't even get him to 60%

Only go to Slave Pense with a full healing specced and geared healer >lvl 62 oder even better with a backup healer

Comentario de Thottbot

The Guy above you probably had good gems in his BF/RAMPS gear, i myself have healed this fight no drama by Greater heal the tank and POH when he does the AOE shots , no problem, +670 healing, im lvl 61 holy priest, and yes, lightwell helps on the first volley of AOE, but if you have the pool for it (or mana regen) and the +healing, just use a POH on the AOE and make sure tank is in range of that spell too.

Comentario de Thottbot

GAH %&#"#/& just taken 2nd boss and tank has to leave.. then everyone does! :**( i'll never get them midnight leggings :-(

Comentario de Thottbot

cant a vw tank? immune to bleed and healthfunnel as extra heal

Comentario de Thottbot

*sigh* just tried this guy and wiped 5times before we gave up our group was:

64 BM hunter (me)
63 Demon warlock
63 priest
62 warrior
64 feral druid

We tried every combo including two healer, two tanks and when we got depserate all dps except priest who spam healed us.

Closest we got was with the two tanks method when we got him down to about 5% health left, this guy is freaking hard.

Comentario de Thottbot

Downed him the other day, didn't drop anything that a Hunter would need, so I didn't pay attention to what dropped. We wiped once, the other Hunter and I just feigned death and used our Goblin Jumper Cables, so it was all good.

Comentario de Thottbot

that's y u get a shaman to heal =D
+6% heal talent stacks up to 3 times during healing wave. That gets the tank to full life, that way he only does the rupture thingy a couple times. The earth shield will also by u some time while healing. i would also suggest overhealng tho anyway. Also, mana tide totem is very useful during that battle. hope that helps.

Shoofar
70 Orc Shammy Resto
Lightning's Blade

Edit: chain heal helps too

Comentario de Thottbot

he hits like a freakin bus, he hit harder that the final boss at about 1000+ and his dot killed tank and had us wipe

Comentario de Thottbot

this guy is a goddam beast. He hits frost spells that AoE not in a cone but everywhere. its like getting hit by a flying tank, the guys psycho. let tank build aggro though cuz fury warrs, dps druids and rogues will get owned in a few hits. Read the other posts about how to dps him down cuz we wiped 2 times on hiim and gave up

Comentario de Thottbot

we got it second try.

the key was to have one healer on tank, one healer on all others. as tank, i kept him on me easily with sunder/revenge and taunt when dropped aggro.

tanking him is easy if the healers are up to scratch with LOTS of mana.

also... long fight....

Comentario de Thottbot

Mages: spam frost ward. It absorbs a lot of the damage from his AoE and saves your healer some mana. Thanks to it, when everyone else is getting hit with 1-2k, I'm getting hit from 100-400. It's awesome.

Comentario de Thottbot

Here's a trick. 2 healers and a hunter. Send hunter pet. Heal hunter pet for 5 minutes. Ugly crab fall down. Works like a charm; did it just a few minutes ago.

Comentario de Thottbot

67 Resto druid (but tanking with 20 feral points)
63 shammy
62 shammy
61 lock
70 hunter

Never in any doubt - never even got low.

Maybe they nerfed him?

Comentario de Thottbot

my group downed him no problem in heroic SP...For the guy that said this guy is super hard....it would be super hard if ur whole group has full greens.

Comentario de Thottbot

I 4-manned this last night.

I'm a holy priest , had a warrior tanking , a ret paladin assisting with heals and a rogue .

Trying to keep the warrior at full health was a huge challenge. I OOM'd while the boss was at 48%. Surprisingly, no one died during the fight. The bleed killed our tank like two seconds after Rokmar died.

Don't ask, I have no idea how the hell it happened.

Comentario de Thottbot

It's usually easy to get out of combat. He usually doesn't chase you down the tunnel that you came out of just before fighting him, so if you're clearly losing, have a rezzer start running away. He usually stops around the entrance of the tunnel, hangs out for a minute, then runs back.

Then you just go ressurect your group and try again.

Comentario de Thottbot

We tried this the other night with the following:
62 Holy Paladin (Me)
62 Prot Warrior Tank
63 Prot Paladin (Off Healer/Tank)
62 Mage
63 Hunter.

We wiped so many times it was unfunny. I put on all my healing gear and managed the outheal the bleed easily.. The problem was the lack of DPS. We couldnt get him down fast enough, on the 3rd try we got him to 3% before the Tank wiped then he 1 hitted the mage, the Hunter used FD and the other Paladin couldnt keep there mana up and ended up dead. All I can reccomend for this fight is a really strong DPS, try and save you're mana for his rage or you'll be in trouble. This guy really pushes healers as he's a big step up from anything BF/Ramparts throw at you. I'm hoping to try and get these for more bonus healing:

Auslese's Light Channeler: https://www.wowhead.com/tbc./i24390

Band of Renewal: https://www.wowhead.com/tbc./i24045 (It dropped once but a mage decided to Ninja >_<)

Comentario de Thottbot

soloed by a 70 holy pally with invisiblity potions

Comentario de Allakhazam

I haven't had a chance to run this instance yet, but was curious about something before going in. The bleed effect.....if this guy is killed and the healers are low on mana, would taking off some (not all) of the +stamina gear help get the person to 100% health faster?

Comentario de Allakhazam

killed him a few days ago with:
lv64 fury war(tank i know its bad but...)
lv62 aff lock
lv63 holy priest(with pre-tbc epics)
lv64 enh shaman
lv64 moonkin druid(me,although i was asked to tank 1st)

we wiped 2ce until i we decided i should heal too and we did it quite easyly
the tank died 3 secs after the crab to the bleed effect

Comentario de Allakhazam

First time going through slave pens last night. My wife and I were originally going to take her mage and my rogue, but after an hour of searching for a tank, she said she'd take her 70shaman. Not quite a tank, but under the circumstances, we just wanted to get the dungeon done. Group consisted of:

70 Enhance Shaman
66 Shadow Priest
65 Subt Rogue
64 Ret Paladin
64 Combat Rogue (me)

The priest had some really nice epic healing gear from pre-BC so despite bein shadow, her heals kept up nicely. Shaman let her earth elemental tank for a bit till it died. Basically just to reduce healing a bit. Not much problem with the ice bolt. I either resisted or just didn't get hit. Ret paly was doing spot heals with the priest while the rogue and I just wailed on him. No deaths until after the fight. Shaman died cause priest was drooling over the loot lol. Otherwise, fairly easy fight and I think we would have been fine even had the shaman been 65/66.

Comentario de Allakhazam

Perished on first and second try, got him on third. He has an aoe frostbolt attack that hits everyone for 1500. Good luck!

Comentario de Allakhazam

Considering the bleed effect is the worst part of this fight, wouldnt the luffa trinket come in handy here for the tank? Lufa

Comentario de Allakhazam

Was AFK when the fight started, he pummeled the DPS clothies, I got back, took him (I was the feral tank)

Took him down the first try. We didnt know what to expect, none of us had done the instance before. Might I say it was easy.

I died of the bleed after we killed him, while reading what it actually did...

Comentario de Allakhazam

got him down to 10% and ran outa man, it was pretty much over after that heh.. finally dieing with 4% left..;-/

Comentario de Allakhazam

We killed him on heroic with no special gear group setup: 70 Prot warrior(me)70 mage, 70 pala(holy) 70 hunter and 70 rogue. we got him on our second try droped the shaman boots which the pala wanted:)

Comentario de Allakhazam

I've not been very lucky with this "lobster boss - Rockmar the Crackler"...my first Slave Pens run was with 2 pallies, 2 feral druids and a mage. We didn't stand a chance against this guy - we just ran out of mana. We could maintain the tanking person alive for a loooong time, but we didn't have enough dps to take it down.

Second run was yesterday with warrior, mage, rogue, holy pally and me, feral druid. It was getting really late, so we only had one shot and we blew it. I was the healer with pally and we took the thing down to 7% when we ran out of mana and eventually hps. I used mana pot, innervate. Perhaps I was doing something wrong, but when the tank got the debuff, used the max-rank Healing Touch. When he frostbolted party members, used lifebloom + rejuvenation on everyone below 50% of health.

No chance...I hate this smug :)

Comentario de Allakhazam

Fought Rokmar trice... well, the first time we try to heal as much on the tanker as possible with a holy Pally (7k mana cap) and we all screwed... Pally outta mana.

2nd time, 8k druid tanker accidentally aggroed Rokmar while i afk. Started shooting fireball at just nice 41 yards (i have flame throwing talent :P), and those ranged frostbolt attack didn't got me. Didn't realise bout the range till i found the frostbolt didn't hit me. Manage to have the same pally left 1k mana at end of combat.

3rd time, double fire mage, and we both measured out distance from Rokmar after battle starts. Use your detect magic range and fireball range to get the distance of 41 yards which u can't be hit by the Frostbolts, but still able to cast your fireball.

This work well with a fire mage with Flame Throwing. Get one if you always got not enough mana for healing. You'll save mana from having not needed to heal a party member. :)

Oh yer, wonder why no one found bout this trick lol. Rokmar's Frostbolt range is just 40 yards.

Comentario de Allakhazam

This boss is a major PITA. He has one of the gnarliest debuffs I've ran into in this game. It took all of my 66 priest's 7800 mana plus a super mana pot to keep the tank up during the fight, and the tank still died after dropping him. Took three attempts to finally get him. This is a tough fight with the frostbolts hitting for 1200 on everyone. Healthstones, health pots and bandages are required for DPS if you expect to live. A DPS race if you ask me. Good luck healers!

Comentario de Allakhazam

This is an endurance fight. (it will take a long period)

Healer should have at least 2 mana potoins at hand (just in case you run out of mana)
All the others must have bandages and Health Potoins incase they lose health (And believe me, they will)

Wait for the boss to path to the far end of the hallway and kill the lobster group and the naga group closest to the boss. This will give you room in the corridor to safely complete the fight.

Send in the tank 1st and have him run under the boss, right between his legs and out the other side. This forces the boss to turn around and face down the hallway and away from the party. This neutralizes his cone-AOE poison/nature bolt.

Tank gathers aggro, and all healers focus on the tank. ALL HEALERS. If a class can heal, they should, even if this leaves only one or two for DPS.
Healers must use 1 Mana pot when they have used the amount of mana witch will be filled by the pot. This will give them the advantage when after 2 min the boss isn't down you can use the other one for more healing

The reason for this is a debuff called Grevious Wounds, which the boss sticks on the tank; this debuff is a bleed effect that cannot be removed which ticks for upwards of 600 every two seconds, in addition to any other DPS the boss puts out.

Grievous Wounds is the reason people fail this fight.

This damage does not seem to be mitigated. The only way to get rid of this debuff is to restore the tank to 100% health; i.e., overheal the heck out of him. Do it quickly, or the fight is over. Tank should continue to hold aggro and call out anytime he gets debuffed. No movement or kiting is necessary.

Keep the tank healthy and wear the boss down. That's it. Simple fight.

Comentario de Allakhazam

This guy is close to impossible with a pug, however if u have sufficient dps and a good tank he shouldnt be too hard.

Comentario de Allakhazam

He does an AOE frost bolt attack that isn't too bad. The bleed he does is the nasty part of this fight. You have to heal whoever gets it to 100% to cure it and it ticks for about 700 damage.

Other then that it's a pretty easy fight. If the tank goes down early you can reset the fight but running back into the room and going up the ramp.

Comentario de Allakhazam

this is the easyest boss fight ive ever tanked (o and feral druids can kiss my @5S more armor and health dose not a tank make) all you have to is take the fight slowly tank faceing away from the group and every class that can heal do so. inform the healers when you get the DoT druids feral druids doing dps get into caster form throw a few HoTs out there and staff and a moonfire every now and again. group Warior<--me0/31/24 feral druid in caster form preist mage and hunter. P.S. if you are a dwarf stoneform gets rid of dot as well.

Comentario de Allakhazam

this guy was pretty much a bastard. i think it took us ten tries with 5 different groups of classes to finally get him down, and we all ended up dying when rokmar had like 100hp left anyway--the priest was the only one left and managed to finish him off.

he does a frostbolt attack that hits you even if he's facing away, so any frost resistance helps. you need a good healer to focus on the tank, that bleed is a pain in the ass--everyone else either needs to bandage themselves or have another healer to focus on the other party members. (we had a priest focus on the tank and a resto druid for the rest of the group)

at least he dropped the crossbow which i won--woot!

all in all this was our successful group makeup:
63 Beast Mastery Hunter
63 Beast Mastery Hunter
66 Holy Priest
63 Resto Druid
62 Prot Warrior
