Tips for WoW Classic X5
1. On x5 the group clears this fight quickly — keep healing steady and don't over-pull. 2. The tank builds threat first; damage joins in after a couple of seconds. 3. Ranged and the healer stay behind the boss, out of his area attacks. 4. Grab the related quests in advance — they turn in a couple of minutes from the entrance.
