Placement
- Ranged/Healers - Should be in the back of the hallway and spread out from one another. The Curator will spawn adds throughout the fight and if you get aggro they hit everyone around you so if you are spread out its only one person to heal.
- Melee - The melee should be around the left back side of the tank getting ready to focus and DPS the adds down as soon as they spawn.
- MT - The MT will tank The Curator around the center of the hallway and making sure the Curator's Back is to the rest of the raid.
The Encounter
The Curator spawns adds pretty quickly throughout the fight until he runs out of mana and reaches 15% life. The adds need to be DPSed down IMMEDIATELY and do not worry about DPS on the Curator just yet. These adds keep spawning about every 10 seconds or so and use a set portion of his mana. Just keep DPSing the adds as they spawn and do not DPS Curator, adds are the priority. When he runs out of mana he will evocate and stop spawning adds. This is when everyone needs to get the last add down as soon as possible and move to DPS Curator like crazy, as he takes additional damage. Also mana fiends should be summoned now because if your mana fiend crits you can get about 1.5k or more mana back...yeah...its overpowered. Two priests on this fight is just unfair so if you have them, just spam heals pretty much as much as you want on the MT because when mana fiend is cooled down you get your entire mana pool back.
Also he will occasionally arcane bolt people throughout the whole encounter. It does about 4k and everyone should be topped off or close to it so they don't get killed if it hits them. Generally the person with the 2nd highest aggro is always hit with the Hateful bolts. If you want to make healing a bit easier you can have an OT wearing Arcane Resis building aggro so as to take all the Hateful bolts, although this is not needed guilds with a smaller amount of healers can use it to lessen the heal strain. Again a treeform druid or a paladin can spot heal the raid while everyone else focuses on healing the MT as he takes the most damage. Lifebloom does almost all the spot healing for the adds AoE that they do, the only person taking damage that can't be healed by lifebloom alone is the hateful bolts target. Just rinse and repeat DPSing the adds till he runs out of mana then DPSing him until 15% life.
At 15% life he stops spawning adds, increases his damage, and starts firing more arcane bolts, this is his enrage ability. Your tank should use shield wall to help the healers and when it runs out healers should spam their highest rank heals until he dies. The spot healer should just make sure everyone getting bolted gets topped off and assist healing main tank if possible. Just all out DPS and keeping everyone TOPPED off and it is GG from here.
KEYNOTES
- Use mana fiends when he evocates...it gives you a ton of mana, around 7-12k easy.
- DPSing the adds is the most important part of the fight, get them down quick. Also when you are on the last add as he is evocating, whoever has aggro on that add needs to bring it close to the curator so as soon as the add is down the DPS can attack Curator. Evocate is when the most damage is dealt so it is important you do everything you can to get the most DPS out of the evocates. Blade flurry would be good to use if you have it so when the add is brought close to Curator you can DPS them both at the same time.
- Summoning adds takes a % of his mana, it is easy to tell when the last add is going to be summoned and he will evocate. Communicate this to the raid so that whoever the add aggros they can move close to the curator so as soon as it dies you can get the most DPS in on Curator while he evocates.
- Save all DPS enhancing abilities (Rapid Fire, Bloodlust, Adrenaline Rush, etc) for when he does his evocate so you get the most DPS out of those abilities.
- If you can spare the mana it does help to throw DoTs on him when he evocates, just throw like 1 shadow word pain for example or a moonfire for that little added DPS.
- The perfect pots for healers during this fight are Major Dreamless Sleep potions, just take one during the Evocations when the MT is pretty much the only one taking damage.
- Save shield wall for his 15% enrage.
