Halfus Wyrmbreaker Downed

Tonight we ventured into Bastion of Twilight which feature five bosses including Cho'gall plus one optional heroic boss. Trash pulls before the first boss Halfus Wyrmbreaker are pretty straight forward, we just assigned a few crowd controls and it went smoothly.

The Nether Scion Drake and Slate Drake were up for Halfus Wyrmbreaker encounter, which means tanks are going to be hit hard and they have to switch and coordinate things tightly. After the 7th attempt we finally got used to the mechanics of the fight. We decided to free Nether Scion Drake and zerg him with lust to remove Frenzied Assault. Our Death Knight tank grabbed the drake while our Paladin tank grabbed the boss. Once the Nether Scion was killed, the Death Knight tank taunted the boss allowing the Paladin tank to divine shield to remove his high amount of Malevolent Strikes stacks.

The Paladin then open the cage to free the Orphaned Emerald Whelps. We zerged down the whelps allowing the raid to take lesser damage from Halfus Protodrake. Once the whelps are gone, the Paladin tank taunted the boss while giving the Death Knight tank Blessing of Protection to remove his stacks. The Slate Dragon is then tanked and killed. Now, the boss is left alone and we zerged him down to about 50% where he starts to use Furious Roar every 30 seconds. With the Slate Drake dead, the boss is stunned every 12 seconds allowing our tanks to kite and drop stacks efficiently. We hit the enrage timer and the Boss went Beserk but due to the stuns, we managed to kill him while being kited.

We got this boss on Christmas Eve, so we would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a very great Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year!
