A few resets after our first Lei Shen kill, and we decided we could spare some time working on our first heroic mode, Jin’Rokh the Breaker. Looking at the heroic changes it sounded like it would be really hard on the healers to heal through the Lightning Storm. As we started progressing on the encounter it turned out this indeed was the hard part of the fight. After a while it became clear that all we would really need was to have everyone alive through two storms. If we then even got a 3rd storm he would be so low that he’d die no matter if more than half the raid was dead by the end of it. It didn’t end up taking us too many tries to live through the storms and see Jin’Rokh bite the dust. First heroic mode is down, 12 to go!

The art department would like to point out that the screenshot above is not from a snowball fight, but is actually of Dailyleaf trying Donald’s tactic during a Lightning Storm. Due to various technical reasons, all too complex to mention in this post, the lightning bolts appear like snowballs.
