Here's the deal - my guild is stuck on Blade Lord (we're not as awesome as we used to be) and during the tornado phase, I die 99% of the time. I try healing myself (there have been times where I literally get 0 healing) but it's never enough. No, I don't get caught by tornadoes.
Stoneform (dwarf racial, 10% less damage)
Healthstone
Exhilaration (twice if Readiness is available)
Is there anything else I might be missing? Not to "toot my own horn" but I'm top dps in the raid and it kills me inside when we miss a kill by 2-3% that I could easily take out by myself. Is Iron Hawk better than Exhilaration for this specific problem? (I normally use it, switched to Exhil to try to stay alive)
