The only thing you gotta remember is to hit Pet Follow to get him out of arcane es'plosion. <br/><br/>Warlocks could make your life much easier on this fight, BRK! During the elemental phase one lock could do the work of the two people offtanking them...banish + fear will take a LOT of DPS out of Shade and keep your people DPS'ing him so you don't have to face that poly+pyro at the end. <br/><br/>Funny thing is, we destroy Shade, Curator, Maiden, Prince when the infernals don't screw us...but I'll be darned if Illhoof doesn't give us more grief than any other boss in this stupid instance lol.<br/><br/>Nice video.

Poorly placed infernals can wreck you. Luck being a determiner is just wasting my time and gold >_< Netherspite is easy if you are coordinated and have good dps. In fact, we 6 manned him from 75% down one night because of a shitty aggro loss that wiped four people. The nice thing about spite is that you CAN recover and still take him down. Unlike nightbane. Nightbane requires you to be on your toes :) I like the Illhoof fight btw. I used to main tank both illhoof and kilrek, but since the dps of wifey (lock) has gotten so much higher, it's not possible to hold enough aggro on illhoof AND kilrek to keep kilrek off her and illhoof off the raid. So now our feral druid tanks kilrek. Kilrek is dead from the conbined dps of the druid tank and my lock wife before illhoof gets to 25%, then rinse and repeat. The fight is easy really.

Two players makes or break that fight.<br/><br/>And Netherspite is fun... once you get the hang of it. We usually run to the opposite side of the room though to avoid netherbreathe and made rude gestures rather than split up and spread damage. We've got enough DPS to cover the lost time though.

Prince is mostly about gear and a modicum of coordination between raid members.<br/><br/>In some ways I think Aran and Illhoof are two of the harder bosses in Kara.

He sheeped ALL my snakes. It was the funniest thing I’ve seen in a long time, it looked like he was sitting there drinking up in the middle of 10 sheep.
