Vanilla WoW Classic 1.12 · x5 realm · wowx5.ruRethilgore

Strategy
- Rethilgore drains the soul of a random target: it heals him and applies a max-HP penalty — it is temporary, don't panic.
- The tank holds him steady; the healer tops off whoever got soul-drained.
- Clear the worgen patrols in the vestibule before the pull or they join the fight.
- On x5 he dies fast — no HP thresholds, a clean tank-and-spank.
