We did it both weeks with 2 heal 1 tank (BDK), and the feral in his tank gear using his cds to full soak the first crystal. The healers CRANKED him to get their stacks up stupid high, and then the pally went full MT healer while the Disc did MT and Crystals. From there Feral was one of the dps and half soaked with others. Worked really well for us so something people can try if their healers are gigachads.
Yeah this seemed to be the best strat if you have a Feral. It gives you the best chance of meeting the damage check, and isn't too hard on healers since you only have to top 250k hp instead of needing to do the full health of the main tank. Without a feral it can still work, your off tank is just gonna do like 0 damage.
@Bigolbktofwtr2 yeah I tried my previous strat in another group and it didn't work so well, so likely going to have to impliment the 2/2 or 3/1 there, so will be sharing your video to get them clued up, thanks mate!
Also for those guys who don't have a blood dk, and have a druid solo tanking - during decimation you can swap to cat form (since it does shadow damage anyways) which will reduce the stress of topping you (by the time the first blade hits you should already be at 6+ stacks,, so you'll have 250+k hp in cat too), and you can go even further and take nurturing instincts talent for an extra 20% healing taken in cat form. Also on the side note - from what i know shaman's ancenstral vigor behaves a bit weird on this fight, cuz it gives waaaays more that 10% of extra health (basically those 10% of health is multiplied by blaze of glory effect, which for example at 20 stacks will turn thise 10% into 50%), which also means you might want to cancel aura that buff during decimation if your healers can't keep up. P.S only solotankable on 10 man, on 25 he does 6 decimation swings instead of just 3.
dont forget that beacon benefits from the vital flame buff, meaning as long as your hpala pops his stacks he can do crystals + mt. we are doing the following: 1st crystal: disc and hpala collect stacks 2nd crystal: disc collects more stacks - hpala on mt 3rd and rest: hpala does crystals while keeping vital flame up (holy shock) for beacon healing, occasionally stacking further whenever there is not much going on (like flame blade or during strong tank cooldowns) - disc perma mt with that strat we have more than enough healing, with the hpala having >49% overhealing if you dont have a shadow priest you can also have your pala or feral go dps but wear a mirror of broken images and cover the last ~10 sec solo soaking with GLYPHED divine protection/frenzy regen + mirror + painsub/bearform
As a Blood DK you can AMS every blade. Thr Inferno blade AMS cuts massive amounts of damage that it should be used if the tank goes up 50% or the healers are low stack count. Desamation blade should also be AMS'd but only after the first swing and popped right before the second. If done correctly the tank only eats that firat swing and completely negates the next 2. Desamation Blade seems to only hit 3 times and if AMS is glyphed a well timed AMS will eat 2 swing.
@@redrav4233 decimation blade is 90% of HP or 250k min. Cannot be mitigated. Go check logs. It cannot be mitigated except by dodge or parry. But they are avoidance. Not mitigation.
all depends on the comp. Lots of people 2 heal 1 tank it. Healing 10 man you get more stacks compared to 25 man. I found 10 man easier but maybe it's just the comp.
hello there! u using OBS for recording? ur vids quality so good! if it OBS can u share ur settings for this? or what i need tune? my set is standart form YT guides. while im staying all good but when i start moving FPS becomes soooo pooopy. our guild starts doing HMs and i want saves those good moment in history =3
Hey, sorry if this fight is confusing, there's kinda of just a lot of things that impact each other so it's tough to explain it all but I hope I did a decent job. Basically tl;dw, The tank will have infinitely scaling health, and the healers need to heal the crystal targets to get a healing buff that lets them keep up with his scaling health. Every minute or so Baleroc will use Decimation blade which is the hardest part of the fight for the tank/healers. You need to quickly top the tank up to full HP after every hit within 2ish seconds or he will die. We 3 heal this fight, and alternate who is healing the tank every 15ish seconds to make sure everyone can build up stacks, while also ensuring the tank is constantly getting healed. DPS need to coordinate who is soaking crystals. It can be helpful to set up a rotation for the first 3 soaks, but due to the Torment debuff, and the new ability "Countdown" on heroic that forces players to run towards each other, sometimes you'll have to improvise. You might not have the damage to kill this boss for a few weeks if your DPS isn't cranking. My advice is first focus on hitting the enrage consistently, and then focus on how you can optimize your damage from that point.

we are doing the following:
1st crystal: disc and hpala collect stacks
2nd crystal: disc collects more stacks - hpala on mt
3rd and rest: hpala does crystals while keeping vital flame up (holy shock) for beacon healing, occasionally stacking further whenever there is not much going on (like flame blade or during strong tank cooldowns) - disc perma mt
with that strat we have more than enough healing, with the hpala having >49% overhealing
if you dont have a shadow priest you can also have your pala or feral go dps but wear a mirror of broken images and cover the last ~10 sec solo soaking with GLYPHED divine protection/frenzy regen + mirror + painsub/bearform
hey, how many stacks would your pala/priest have after the first and second crystal?
Spark stacks apply as -
1-5 : 1 stack per heal
6-10 : 2 stacks per heal
And so on

Yeah do this, sorry i dont know much about how he managed his CD's but this helps a ton
dks bruh.... what more they wana flex with xd
AMS doesn't mitigate Decimation blade.
@@Sn1p3RTJ It does. It is an absorb effect, so it works against it perfectly.

Thanks for the guide ! If we have a SP (not feral), is this the strat you would recommend ?
Yeah same strat prob, especially now that people should have 2 sets and a little gear you shouldnt have damage problems as much

I dont think I've changed my OBS Settings much it could be PC thing? I play on Low Settings in game tho might help the frames.
@Bigolbktofwtr2 ohh ok ty ty I will try I now
what is the weakaura that tracks when healer is healing the tank vs getting stacks please
