Heroic Steamvault, Hydromancer Thespia.
My preferance is to use a feral druid to tank the elemental set as the first to die rather than banishing. The elementals die quickly and will not unbanish at an inoprtune moment.

Another way to do it is to have a hunter’s pet waiting at the bottom of the ramp and for it’s master to Misdirect to it (use trinkets and pull with Aimed shot if he or she has it). The hunter should use Mend Pet just before the elemental engages its pet.

@Tryna: Yeah, he’s nasty, and really hard for just one healer. I think the first time we did it, we had Maidai help Yasura with the heals. It’s really good that he can be skipped.

I can’t heal that first boss in H. Arc on my shaman. The knockback, lack of hots, no party heals, and my instant heal on a huge cooldown…yeah, it was a mess. But healing the rest of the instance was cake. Just not him.

@ARA: See, now you reminded me, and I really should add it to part II. It’s not particularly terrifying, and downright easy for geared tanks. It’s just the poor sucker doing adds that’s suffering.

Will update accordingly.

Thank you for your guide. Nice reading your posts as always. Looking forward to the terrifying ones:) Does that include Dark Portal? For a tank, that’s one of the easiest, isnt it? I’m always dragging people out there, I love it so much, because the dps have to do all the work for a change.
