Infernal control & Carrion Swarm

Use dedicated Infernal control and keep the raid positioned so Carrion Swarm does not cripple too many healers at once. Healer positioning is a major part of making this fight stable.

Progression rule

Assign the encounter’s repeatable jobs before the pull. During progression, clean mechanic execution is worth more than marginal damage gained by ignoring movement or assignments.

Role responsibilities

What each role should do

Tank

Hold Anetheron while the assigned off-tank controls spawned Infernals away from vulnerable players.

Healer

Spread to reduce Carrion Swarm impact and keep the Infernal tank covered.

DPS

Kill/control Infernals according to the raid plan and avoid stacking unnecessarily in front of Carrion Swarm.

Common wipe reasons

Why raids wipe here

Infernals reach healers; too many healers are hit by the same Carrion Swarm; the raid enters the boss with weak resources after trash.

Preparation

Before the next pull

  • Identify the exact mechanic that caused the wipe.
  • Change one assignment at a time instead of rebuilding the strategy.
  • Make sure battle resurrection and major cooldown plans are clear.
  • Check whether a resistance or role-specific gear set is required.
