• Rotate a cooldown for each cast of Eruption Stomp. It is a massive magical hit, so keep in mind, Ironfur has no effect. You should also run away from the group with this mechanic as it knocks you up and spawns waves around you.
• On the lightning side, the tank mechanic is Lightning Bash. This is a massive Physical hit that then deals all unmitigated damage as Nature damage. As a Guardian we are extremely strong at mitigating Physical so this boss is great for us.

• Use cooldowns on CD.

• Bosses need to be tanked at least 40 yards apart outside of intermission phase.

• No changes as a tank for Mythic.

• No massive hitting abilities on this fight, just rotate cooldowns when actively tanking the boss as necessary. This boss deals Sonic damage which Ironfur is not effective against.

• Use on damage cooldowns on CD.

• As a tank, you will want to face the boss away from the raid, as his auto attacks are a frontal cone. Generally, tanks swap at around 5 stacks of the debuff applied by his auto attacks.

• Ensure you do not get hit by 2 Resonant Echoes in rapid succession as this will lead to you being mind controlled and could be quite deadly.

• The taunt swap on this fight is Demolish, which deals half nature and half physical damage. This is also a great place to rotate defensive cooldowns for each smash.

• Use cooldowns on CD.

• If you get a yellow arrow on your head, you need to roll around collecting the small green piles of trash.

• In Mythic, ball rolling becomes the highest priority aspect of the fight. You must collect enough trash or Junkyard Hyena's to grow into a Medium ball to then pick up the Scrapmasters before they kill people. You must then grow into a Large ball to either get rid of a detonating bomb or roll into the boss to deal huge damage.

• The tank swap mechanic on this fight is in 2 parts. The first part is applied via auto-attacks called Gravi-Gunk, which slows you and increases your damage taken. The other is Pyro Party Pack which is a massive fire damage bomb hit that you must run as far away from your group as possible. This is a perfect place to use defensive cooldowns.

• Use cooldowns on CD.

• As a tank, it is imperative that you pull the boss to the safe quadrants around the room. The safe quadrants are chosen each time the boss casts Wire Transfer.

• In mythic, you will be assigned a color either Red or Blue and must not touch anyone of the opposing color. This will alternate throughout the fight.

• Use damage cooldowns on CD.

• Make sure you interrupt the Overload! casts from the small adds with Skull Bash.

• No Mythic Tips yet, check back in the future for updates.

• The tank mechanic is Molten Gold Knuckles which deals high physical damage and some fire damage. This ability also knocks you back and applies Golden Drip which causes you to leave a travel of gold behind. You must run around to drop the pools on the ground to drop your stacks but also conserve space in the room.
• The other tank mechanic is Double Whammy Shot, which is a long red line you must stand in closest to the boss to be hit by and soak for your raid member targeted.

• Use damage cooldowns on CD.

• You can use Stampeding Roar to help your group soak fire zones or run away from crawler mines. There is a lot of movement in this fight so Stampeding Roar has value almost always.

• No Mythic Tips yet, check back in the future for updates.

• Use cooldowns on CD.

• You can use Stampeding Roar for each of the big movements during Scatterblast Canisters.
