Group plan

Tank

Healer

Watch marked players and her first target after Vanish; both take big hits. Dispel Shadow Word: Pain, and keep cloth players topped while she is gone.

Damage

Keep damage on Arlokk while she is visible. When she vanishes, AoE the panthers on the casters and leave those the off-tanks hold. Melee stay off her in panther form.

Jin'do the Hexxer

Level ?? boss · Up the road past Arlokk's pyramid; a skeleton pit lies nearby

Optional

Optional caster with totems and hidden shades: kill shades, then healing wards, then Brain Wash Totems, then Jin'do. Never remove his curse.

Watch for

HexDispel magic
Magic: turns his top-threat target into a frog for 5 sec; he attacks the next player.
Delusions of Jin'doKill adds
Curse: damage every 2 sec, and a Shade of Jin'do appears that only cursed players can see and hit.
Shadow ShockResistance
Shades of Jin'do hit cursed players with Shadow damage.
Powerful Healing WardKill adds
A ward that heals Jin'do in an area over time.
Summon Brain Wash TotemKill adds
A totem that mind controls a player until the totem dies.

Group plan

Tank

Hex turns the tank into a frog and he attacks the next on threat, so two tanks stay close on threat. Guides say a Bear Form druid isn't Hexed and can tank alone.

Healer

Dispel Hex off the tank at once. Never remove Delusions of Jin'do. If cursed, help kill shades. Shadow protection and shadow resistance gear help.

Damage

Kill shades, then Powerful Healing Ward, then Brain Wash Totem, then Jin'do. Shades need single-target attacks. A mage or warlock clears skeletons when he drops a player in the pit.

Each class

Druid · your class
Bear Form tanks him without Hex trouble. Never use Remove Curse on Delusions of Jin'do; if cursed, Moonfire and Wrath the shades.
Hunter · your class
Hunter's Mark a shade so you can still find it after your curse ends. Shoot the Powerful Healing Ward and Brain Wash Totems on the call.
Mage · your class
Never use Remove Lesser Curse on Delusions of Jin'do. Fire Blast and Frostbolt shades while cursed, and Blizzard the skeletons in the pit.
Paladin · your class
Cleanse Hex off the tank at once. Run Shadow Resistance Aura for the shades. Hit totems, and shades while you are cursed.
Priest · your class
Dispel Magic Hex off the tank. Use Psychic Scream on cooldown so a brainwashed you can't fear the raid. Prayer of Shadow Protection before the pull.
Rogue · your class
Put Wound Poison on Jin'do to cut the Healing Ward's heals. Hit totems at once, and shades while cursed.
Shaman · your class
You can't remove Hex; call a priest or paladin. Lightning Bolt the Powerful Healing Ward and Brain Wash Totems, and hit shades while cursed.
Warlock · your class
Kill Brain Wash Totems at once with your demon's help. While cursed, Shadow Bolt shades; Rain of Fire clears skeletons in the pit.
Warrior · your class
Use Intimidating Shout before the pull and on cooldown so a brainwashed warrior can't fear the raid. Keep Mortal Strike on Jin'do.

Hakkar

Level ?? boss · Temple across the bridge; Sons of Hakkar on the side platforms

Final boss; kill the five High Priests first. Take Poisonous Blood before every Blood Siphon, stay spread, and swap tanks on Cause Insanity.

Watch for

Blood SiphonStack up
Every 90 sec: stuns players in front of him and drains them to heal him, unless they carry Poisonous Blood.
Poisonous BloodStack up
Poison from a dead Son of Hakkar's cloud. During Blood Siphon it hurts Hakkar instead. Don't cure it.
Corrupted BloodSpread out
Damage, then 200 more every 2 sec for 10 sec; it jumps to players standing close.
Cause InsanityCrowd control
Charms his target for 10 sec, speeding its attacks and movement against its own raid.

Group plan

Tank

He can't be taunted, so two or three tanks build threat from the pull. When the main tank goes insane, the next one takes him. Warrior tanks use Intimidating Shout on cooldown.

Healer

Spread to limit Corrupted Blood. Don't cure Poisonous Blood. When a charmed tank is polymorphed, dispel the sheep once the charm ends.

Damage

Spread except for poison runs. Before each Blood Siphon, kill the pulled Son of Hakkar and step into its cloud. Crowd control a charmed tank.

Each class

Druid · your class
Hibernate the pulled Son of Hakkar until it's time to kill it. Never Abolish Poison before a siphon; Poisonous Blood is what hurts him.
Hunter · your class
If assigned, pull a Son of Hakkar from a side platform and hold it near the raid. Step into its cloud before each Blood Siphon.
Mage · your class
Polymorph a charmed tank until the charm ends. Polymorph can also hold the pulled Son of Hakkar. Take the poison before each siphon.
Paladin · your class
Leave Poisonous Blood alone; Cleanse only on call. Once a charmed tank's charm ends, Cleanse the Polymorph off them.
Priest · your class
Stand spread at the center rear. Dispel Magic the Polymorph off a tank once Cause Insanity ends. Take the poison before each siphon.
Rogue · your class
Step into the Son's poison cloud before each Blood Siphon. Stop hitting a charmed tank, and follow the control call.
Shaman · your class
Don't drop Poison Cleansing Totem here; it would strip Poisonous Blood. Chain Heal spread players hit by Corrupted Blood.
Warlock · your class
Take the planned poison before each Blood Siphon. Hold damage off a charmed tank, and keep your assigned curse on Hakkar.
Warrior · your class
He can't be taunted, so tanks build threat from the start. Use Intimidating Shout on cooldown so a charmed warrior can't fear the raid.
