It was @Elsen_DraenorEU who said she was going to listen to all 15 episodes of Blessing of Frost at work on Monday to keep her sane. Tweet her and let her know there are other, better options for her sanity! š
Choice of Skywall – holy paladins should apply so Kurn doesn’t lose what’s left of her sanity.

Cho’gall tips:
@xmolder: While taking down the adds in Cho’gall’s fight is important, demo locks need to cut out that Hellfire spam. Send your felguard in, but stand back and use Rain of Fire for the bloods. Immo Aura is totally safe for the eyestalks, though.
@SturgarHawkwind: Re: Cho’Gall: Going into Phase 2, if there’s no fire on the throne, tank him there and clump up inside the skull. Gathers up the Creations in a small area (allowing for AoE). Also, if you’ve got SV hunters, Entrapment is HUGE. If you need blood help, get it.
@Shathus: have a hunter spec w/Entrapment for 2 extra slime stuns on Cho’gall
Dayden: Prot paladins can make a macro to target an enemy player, throw AS, then target back to Cho. Ā Works great to break worshiping!
@BeruHeals: Make a power aura for when you are puking so you don’t throw up on your friends!
@e_man41: IRL power aura needed RT ā@BeruHeals: @kurnmogh Make a power aura for when you are puking so you don’t throw up on your friends!
@TikariOfET: Cho: Hotkey *all* your interrupts and determine a priority order going in so you know which to fire next.
@TikariOfET: Cho: smokebomb works wonders on tentacles. Smoke, they’ll target you, then cloak off. Lowers the raid damage.
Nefarian tips:
@Derevka: Lightwell on the Pillars for Nef. Glyph Psychic Scream on Chogal. š
@walkstweets: Nefarian: despite pillar assignments, everyone on the pillar (who isn’t assigned) who can interrupt should gun for the first! / Nefarian: On the pillars, a lightwell can be placed over the lava. It floats!
@SerrinneWoW: 4Nef: click the lightwell while tail-whipped! Ā useable while stunned š Ā also glyph your GS/PS if you are the p3 add tank healer
@xmolder: Bane of Havoc and Shadowburn are a destro lock’s best friends in Nefarian! Use them on Ony (or Nef, if you’re on Ony-duty) and the pillar add to help keep Improved Soul Fire rolling without hard casting it. Plus, it pads the meters. š
@JoeEgo812: Glyphed Divine Protection + HoSac on a tank for a crackle works. Useful? Not sure.
@Bindww: INTERRUPT!!!!! / for Nef p2. Jump up onto the platform at an angle so you don’t get stuck on the sides
@OriginalOestrus: Body & Soul is great for helping the add tank kite adds in P3 and for your healers to keep up with them.
@TikariOfET: rogue-specific: feint at 2s left on elec. cast and cloak (if up) at .5s. That way if timing is off on cloak, feint will be up / if you’re having trouble getting out of lava, try a different spot around the pillar. Tab-target before getting out.
