The Siege of Ulduar: Razorscale Guide
We’re going to do something a little different today. Instead of looking at class mechanics or specs, we’re going to look at the latest raid available to you guys. Ulduar, as you all probably know, is similar to Naxx in the way that it is divided into four sections. The initial section is called The Siege of Ulduar and is all about breaking into Ulduar where you’ll later face some familiar NPCs (if you’ve done some of the larger quest chains at least). Let’s take a deeper look into how exactly you break into Ulduar. Today, we’ll be focusing on Razorscale. Razorscale Abilities Devouring Flame – Inflicts around 6,000 damage a second to anyone in it, as well as anyone within 6 yards of the blast. Lasts 25 seconds Fireball – Inflicts roughly 7,000 damage to the target Flame Buffet – Increases Fire Damage taken by 1,000 for 1 minute. Stacks 99 times. Tanks will need to swap in and out to reduce stacks Wing Buffet – Knocks back anyone around Razorscale Fuse Armor – Reduces armor, attack speed, and movement speed by 20% for 20 seconds. Stacks 5 times at which point the tank will become stunned Flame Breath – Deals 13,000-17,000 damage in a cone shape Razorscale is an optional boss, just like Ignis the Furnace Master. Both of them increase the enrage timer on XT-002 Deconstructor, so it’s recommended that you down them. Razorscale is an interesting fight as she is in the air for most of the battle and the raid is on the ground dealing with adds that spawn out of drills that pop out of the ground. There are three types of mobs that spawn, Dark Rune Watchers , Dark Rune Guardians and Dark Rune Sentinels . In Flight For the first part of this fight, the raid should be split into two groups, each with its own tank, healers and DPS. Both sides will spawn Dark Rune Watchers and Guardians which the tanks have to pick up. Watchers should be killed first because of their Chain Lightning and then the DPS can move on to Guardians. If a Dark Run Sentinel spawns, it will spawn in the center and if you have it, a third tank should pick it up. The Sentinel hits hard so you’ll need to keep heals up too. Ranged DPS should take down the Sentinels ASAP. Another thing that everyone needs to watch out for is Razorscale’s Devouring Flame patches. They’re blue flames and if you’re in them, get out. Other than that, Razorscale will pick a target and shoot a fireball at them, so this phase is fairly simple. Roughly every thirty seconds to a minute, a harpoon will be available for use and someone in the raid should use it. When four (in 25 man) have been used, Razorscale will hit the ground. As a hunter, this is a fairly straightforward fight. You just burn Razorscale down and she will take off into the skies shortly after. You repeat the add phase until Razorscale hits 50% health and is permanently grounded. On The Ground At this point, Hunters should just make sure they aren’t in front of the boss and then burn it down. Pop any cooldowns and don’t pull aggro. If you can do that, you’re good. The tank should be kiting Razorscale in a circle, so at times you may need to move to get in range of the boss. If you see the tank make a sharp turn and you think that they might bring Razorscale around in a way that will have her facing you, move. It’s the best thing you can do. Razorscale is rather large, so if you wait too long to move, you may not get out of her way and her Flame Breath WILL kill you. The Loot 10 Man: Razorscale Talon – If you dual-wield, this is a decent weapon for you Bracers of the Smothering Inferno – A nice bracer with hit and armor penetration Band of Draconic Guile – It’s hard to find good rings for hunters these days, but this is a really good one if you don’t have the ring from Malygos 25 Man: Saronite Mesh Legguards – Nice pants with crit rating as well as armor penetration We’ll be continuing this guide for all the bosses of Ulduar, so keep an eye out for later bosses in future articles. If you’ve got special tips that your group uses to defeat these bosses, be sure to leave them in the comments! This Post From: The Hunter’s Mark .
