Lord Marrowgar
From Game Theory
Normal
- Health: 6.97m (10); 23.7m (25)
- Special Abilities: Saber Lash, Coldflame, Bone Spike Graveyard, Bone Storm
- Raid composition: 10: 2 tanks, 2-3 healers, rest DPS; 25: 3 tanks, 6 healers, rest DPS.
- Basic positioning: Tanks stacked in front of boss. Melee spread out behind boss. All others spread out across room in an arc.
Note on composition: You need enough people at range to bait Coldflame so that it avoids the tanks and melee. Melee are strong here, but too many of them may hinder timely destruction of Bone Spikes among ranged due to travel time.
Saber Lash damage is split evenly among targets standing in front of the boss. If you're not a tank, don't stand in front of him. If you are a tank, stack up on the other tank(s).
Coldflame starts from the edge of his targeting circle and radiates out in straight lines. Don't stand in it, but it's not the end of the world if you take a tick here or there.
Bone Spike Graveyard will impale 1 (10-man) or 3 (25-man) raiders, as well as anyone in a line between the boss and his targets. Affected raiders are stunned and take damage until their Bone Spike is broken by damage. Try not to land a killing blow on a spike while its base is in Coldflame, but do break them out as quickly as possible otherwise. There is an achievement for breaking every spike in less than 8 seconds.
Bone Storm has a cast time and a big emote. The boss will whirlwind and move around the room for a while, choosing various raiders to chase. The entire raid must spread out to mitigate damage. The spread should be planned so that no raider is ever out of range of a healer. His threat table resets at the end of Bone Storm; plan casts, DoTs and HoTs appropriately.
