Hey guys this is my first post and figured I might as well give this guide thing a shot. I have been making 300-500g every maintenance day by running Blackwing lair with my friends. Not only does this get you gold but it also gives you a chance at getting that tier 2 armor and weapons
What you need:
Atleast 3 friends including yourself ( i usually do it with 4 to do it faster)
232 gear is recommended but I have done this in worse gear
~Somebody who can heal ( is a must obv)
~Somebody who can decurse such as a mage or druid ( is a must)
~Somebody who can tank, this can range from a ret pally to a actual tank.
~It is recommended also that that a dps can taunt and hold threat for a couple of seconds. ( will explain later on )
~ Must be attuned to Blackwing Lair
How to :
The first boss is Razorgore the Untamed
DO NOT kill the boss without doing what I say because you will all die instantly once you kill the boss and he will reset.
What I recommend doing is getting the dps to press the orb on the bottom of the left platform. Once the dps press' the orb he will control the boss for an amount of time.You have a spell on you when you press the orb which will not allow you to press the orb again within a certain time. the dps will get a new action bar, with this he/she have to walk up to each egg and press destroy egg on the action bar. While the dps is destroying the eggs the tank and healers will be killing the mobs going to the boss. This is a must because it will shorten the channeling time you have with the boss. If you do this right you can press on the orb after your channeling has finished. When all the eggs have been destroyed you can kill the boss. This part will be tank and spank.
second boss: Vaelastrasz the Corrupt
This boss is a complete dps race. He does tail swipes which will knock you back.
The reason this is a dps race is because he does a debuff on a random target in the raid called Burning Adrenaline. Burning Adrenaline increases damage done by 100% Attack speed increased by 100%. Spells become instant cast. Reduces max health by 5% every second; eventually causes player to die.
Have the tank hold threat while doing alot of damage output. Have the Dps pop all cd's etc etc and have the healer dps until healing is needed.
The third boss is Broodlord Lashlayer
You will see him after the notorious suppression room. The Suppression room makes you walk very slow and reduces casting speed drastically. Once you've killed all the elite mobs you head towards Broodlord Lashlayer and tank him at the gate. This will take away the suppression room debuff from you. This boss is also tank and spank with the occasional knock back to everybody in the raid.
Fourth boss is Firemaw
He is another Dps race because he does aoe fire damage to everybody in the raid. The long he's alive the more damage the debuff does.
Fifth Boss is Ebonroc
He is a tank and spank fight other then the fact that he does a debuff on the tank called
Shadow of Ebonroc. Shadow of Ebonroc is a debuff cast on the main tank. While active, Ebonroc gains 25,000 health every time he strikes that target. To counter this I have my dps taunt the boss until the dps receives the debuff and have the tank take agro. rinse and repeat until the boss is dead.
sixth boss is Flamegor
This boss is a plain and simple tank and spank fight. All he does is enrage which causes him to do extra damage which should be peanuts to the tank Healer should have no problem healing the tank.
seventh boss and hardest boss in my opinion is Chromaggus
This boss gets a debuff on himself every couple seconds which causes the specified damage to do more damage onto the boss.
he also does one of these debuffs to everybody in the raid every couple of seconds.
*
Brood Affliction: Red: Disease. 50 Fire damage every three seconds. Heals Chromaggus on death.
*
Brood Affliction: Green: Poison. Healing reduced by 50%, 250 Nature damage every 5 seconds.
*
Brood Affliction: Blue: Magic. Movement slowed by 70%. Casting speed reduced by 50%. 50 mana and 1 health drained per second.
*
Brood Affliction: Black: Curse. Fire Damage increased by 100%.
*
Brood Affliction: Bronze: 4 second stun at random intervals for 10 minutes. Can only be removed with Hourglass Sand.
These have to be cleansed off or decursed. You just have to make sure that you do not have all these debuffs at one time because you will be mind controlled by the boss and wipe the raid. other than that this is a tank and spank fight.
Last boss is Nefarian
This boss has 2 phases.
The first phase Nefarian has you kill all the mobs he sends at you. make sure to kill these mobs asap because they have a chance of mind controling you.
Once you have killed all the adds he throws at you he will fly down to the raid.
Have the the tank, tank the boss away from the raid because he does some flame breath but it is weak so it's not a must it just helps the healer out. He also does class debuffs to everybody every couple seconds. none of these are to serious except for the priest debuff. The priest debuff basicly makes any heals you throw on your raid members to be a dot and do dmg over time. This debuff will go away in about 12 second so this will not be to difficult. That is all the you need to know about this fight.
I hope you guys like or atleast understand my guide
Most of all I hope you guys all get a lot of gold and your Tier 2 gear set
* sorry for not saying this earlier butt each boss drops the gold. Depending on how many players you have you will get different amounts of gold
