Five bosses with eleven, Sszorak on pull ten
Compared with last Thursday (September 24), when thirteen of us killed the same five. Fewer people, cleaner kills, and one long argument with the wind.
5 kills in 15 pullsSszorak kill on pull 1010–11 raiders · 15 boss pulls
Part 1
The Good
Four bosses in five pulls to open the night with ten people. Those four kills had 3 deaths between them; last Thursday's had 15 with thirteen people. Sentinels went from 7:13 to 5:40 and Lost Explorers from 6:25 to 4:55.
Sszorak with eleven. The kill had one death (last Thursday's had six), and every Mutilate before the first winds was soaked by five or six.
Luminianna swapped to Preservation for pulls 28 to 30 and the kill came on the third. Three healers was the right call for an eleven-man Sszorak.
7 of the 11 people who raided both Thursdays beat their previous parse on a majority of the five shared kills. Cheylia did it on all five.
Potions: 6 of 9 DPS and tanks pressed two on the Sszorak kill. Amazinggrace went from zero potions on Sunday to seven pulls tonight.
Food and flask on all 15 pulls for all twelve people.
Part 2
What would help most next time
1
Sszorak: be back in your Mutilate group before the Apex after the winds
Mutilate splits its damage between everyone in the cone and does lethal damage if fewer than five are hit. With eleven people the two groups are five and six, so one death before an Apex Predator makes that group's Mutilate lethal, and one person landing late does the same thing.
Before the winds, 4 of 40 Mutilates tonight hit fewer than five. After the winds, 14 of 25 did. Five of the nine wipes ended in the Apex Predator right after the intermission (pulls 21, 23, 24, 27, 29), and on pulls 21, 23 and 27 the first post-wind Mutilate hit Amonamarth alone. Name the two groups, and have one person call the regroup as the third gust ends.
Apex Predator is two Ravages, two Mutilates and a Tempest in random order. Ravage is the tank frontal (400% stacking, so tanks swap between hits). Mutilate alternates between the two soak groups; anyone hit gets Mutilated Gash, which makes the next Mutilate hit them for 500% more and bleeds afterwards.
2
The winds: stand on the middle pixel and let the cysts do the work
Three wipes ended inside the intermission (pulls 22, 26, 28), 29 deaths tonight were falls with no killing blow during the wind windows, and 12 more were Viscous Cyst bursts. On pull 28 all ten living players fell between 1:59 and 2:03. Last Thursday's three pulls had two falls total.
The cysts placed before the winds are what stop you: each gust pushes the raid onto the cyst opposite the active tunnel, it bursts, and the slow it leaves makes you resistant to the next push. That only works if the whole raid is on one spot when the first gust hits. Anyone drifting toward a cyst early pops it for nobody.
Howling Maelstrom: at 100 energy (1:51 and 4:09 tonight) the altar sends three gales across the arena, each pushing everyone in its direction, with a fourth cyst as the failsafe. Sszorak takes 30% more damage for the 25 seconds (Dig In), so this is where potions and cooldowns pay the most.
3
Stop touching Tempest
The vortices were touched 170 times across ten pulls. Every touch hurts, leaves a DoT and stacks a 30% slow, and a slowed player is the one who doesn't make the middle before the winds. Cheylia 25, Amonamarth 22, Illidæn 21, Guinness 19; Vansik managed 6.
4
Venomous Surge: run out, press a defensive
Marked players take a 10-second DoT and then burst, with damage falling off with distance, and the burst leaves a cyst. Zarylathanea died to it at 1:40 on pulls 21 and 22, each time right before the winds, which is the worst possible moment to lose a soaker. If you're marked, move away from the group and use your defensive; healers, the mark is visible and the burst is on a timer.
5
Ravage is aimed at the tank
Animus (pull 21, 2:27), Arthurdent (pulls 21 and 23, 2:43 both times) and Cheylia (pull 23, 2:43) died to Ravage. It's the tank frontal and it was aimed at the tank. All four deaths were in the Apex right after the first winds, which is the same regroup problem as item one: people landed in front of the boss and stayed there.
6
Use healthstones
Animus, Charlicious, Cheylia and Guinness used zero healthstones in 15 pulls. Auot used one on all four of his pulls, the only person who did. Charlicious makes them.
7
Lost Explorers: pull 16 was a 3% wipe
Eleven deaths starting at 3:20 with Luminianna and Auot to Splinters, then Shredding Shards, then everything. The next pull killed it in 4:55 with one death (Vansik, Mighty Thud at 3:22). Nothing to fix there; just the reminder that the first wipe was the clean one until 3:20.
8
Enchants, oils and potions
Flask and food were on every pull for everyone. The rest: Auot has eight empty enchant slots, no weapon oil and used no potion (first night, item level 313, so the cheapest upgrades in the raid are his). Amonamarth five empty slots and no oil, Vansik four and no oil, both for the second week. Cheylia two, Luminianna one, Illidæn both rings plus an empty waist socket. Animus used no potion on any of 15 pulls. Each breakdown lists the slots.
9
Talent check
Every build was compared with the current guides and the 30 top US Heroic Sszorak logs for the same spec (Vashnik for Auot and Luminianna's Devastation). Six of twelve have something to look at: Auot is on Templar where all 30 top Protection logs are Lightsmith, ten talents from the guide build; Luminianna's Preservation build is Chronowarden (0 of 30) with six staple talents missing, and her Devastation lacks Star Salvo; Amonamarth has two spec talents that no top Blood takes in place of two that 93% take; Guinness lacks Heart of the Crusader (77%); Vansik still lacks Lessons in Debilitation (87%); Arthurdent is on neither guide's single-target build. Details in each breakdown.

Damage
7 raiders
Arthurdent
Elemental Shaman
Sszorak 71 → 83 · Explorers 72 → 91
Talents match top logs
Good
83rd on Sszorak and 91st on Lost Explorers, up from 71st and 72nd last Thursday. A potion on all 15 pulls and two on the kill.
Zero early deaths all night. He survived everything except the things he walked into.
Bad
10 of 12 Power of the Maelstrom procs expired unused, Spiritwalker's Grace pressed once, 20 seconds a minute not casting. On a movement fight. As the person who wrote the movement note.
Died to Ravage, the tank frontal, at 2:43 on two different pulls. From 30 yards.
Charlicious
Demonology Warlock
Sszorak 52 → 73 · Explorers 32 → 74
Talents match top logs
Good
Up on four of five shared bosses vs last Thursday; 73rd on Sszorak at 316 item level, every cast rate within 10% of the top Diabolists. The script checked twice.
Potion on all 15 pulls, two on the kill. Second week running. At this point it's showing off.
Bad
Mindpiercer's Sigil at 311. No top log runs it, and being seven item levels under everyone doesn't count as a handicap system.
Zero healthstones in 15 pulls. From the Warlock. They're right there. He put them there.
Guinness
Retribution Paladin
Sszorak 31 → 28 · Explorers 31 → 39
Talents 3 swaps suggested
Good
Wake of Ashes, Execution Sentence, Divine Toll and Avenging Wrath all went out at the top logs' rate.
Lost Explorers 39th, up from 31st, on a one-death kill.
Bad
Holy Power waste 39%, 11 of 15 Divine Arbiter procs expired, Hammer of Wrath at half the top rate.
Died to Mutilate three times, the most in the raid, and had three early deaths. Zero healthstones.
Illidæn
Devourer Demon Hunter
Sszorak 15 → 25 · Explorers 15 → 50
Talents match top logs
Good
Lost Explorers 15th to 50th and Sszorak 15th to 25th vs last Thursday, on the hero tree 29 of 30 top logs use.
Five healthstones used, second-most in the raid, and a potion on all 11 pulls.
Bad
Vengeful Retreat once in six minutes where top Devourers press it four times a minute; Cull, Reap and Void Ray all at half the top rate.
Rings still unenchanted, waist socket still empty, 278 gems. Same list as Sunday.
Luminianna
Devastation Evoker · Preservation for the kill
Sentinels 48 → 78 · Lost Explorers 45 → 74
Talents 1 swap suggested
Good
Swapped to Preservation for the last three pulls and the kill came on the third. The best call of the night, which is why it's being mentioned before the part about the talents.
Sentinels 78th and Lost Explorers 74th as Devastation, up from 48th and 45th; seven healthstones, most in the raid. Somebody is clicking the thing.
Bad
The Preservation build is Chronowarden with six staple talents missing; 0 of 30 top Pres logs run it. It healed the kill the way a bucket heals a leak.
Devastation is missing Star Salvo (77% of top), and the chest is still unenchanted. The shoulders got done since Sunday, so the list is being worked at one slot per raid.
Vansik
Arcane Mage
Sszorak 59 → 65 · Explorers 31 → 51
Talents 1 swap suggested
Good
Sszorak 65th, up from 59th; fewest Tempest touches in the raid (6 in 10 pulls) and the most healthstones (9).
Cast rates within 10% of the top Sunfury logs on Missiles, Barrage and Touch of the Magi.
Bad
Four empty enchant slots and no weapon oil on any pull, for the second week, at item level 325.
Still missing Lessons in Debilitation (87% of top). Same note as Sunday.
Zarylathanea
Beast Mastery Hunter
Sszorak 17 → 12 · Explorers 9 → 14
Talents match top logs
Good
Potion on 14 of 15 pulls and a healthstone on 8, both among the best in the raid.
Nothing cancelled all night: what she pressed, she finished.
Bad
33 casts a minute against 61 for top Pack Leaders: Kill Command and Cobra Shot at half rate, Bestial Wrath 8 of 12.
Venomous Surge killed her at 1:40 on two pulls, and she fell in the winds four times, once on the kill.
Healers
2 raiders, plus Luminianna for the kill
Animus
Restoration Shaman
Sszorak 42 → 16 · Explorers 23 → 68
Talents match top logs
Good
Vashnik 82nd and Lost Explorers 68th, up from 8th and 23rd last Thursday. The best first half he's logged.
Talent build is identical to the guide and to all 30 top logs. He can read.
Bad
16th percentile on the Sszorak kill: 8.5 Flame Shocks and Lava Bursts a minute from the healer, Chain Heal at half the top rate, Nature's Swiftness twice in six minutes.
Died on 8 of 10 Sszorak pulls, once to the tank frontal, with zero healthstones and zero potions all night. The guild leader.
Cheylia
Holy Priest
Sszorak 7 → 10 · Explorers 31 → 37
Talents match top logs
Good
Up on all five shared bosses vs last Thursday: Nek'zali 9th to 44th, Sentinels 7th to 24th, Vashnik 14th to 32nd. Those are percentiles, not Celsius, so it's a bigger jump than it looks.
98th-percentile damage for a Holy Priest on the kill. The Smites are landing, politely.
Bad
The Smites cost the healing: Flash Heal at a quarter of the top rate, 25% of mana never spent, 10th percentile HPS on the kill. The unspent mana is being held until the exchange rate improves.
Touched Tempest 25 times, most in the raid, and died to the tank frontal on pull 23. She apologized to the tornado every time, we assume.
Swapped to Blood so a 10-man night could happen, and out-parsed last week's Unholy while tanking. The DPS spec is on notice.
Potion on 7 pulls, up from zero on Sunday. Food, flask and oil on all 15. The consumables tab has been found.
Bad
Death and Decay up 12% of the fight (top Bloods: 73%), with 37 of 45 free Crimson Scourge procs overwritten. A free button, pressed 8 times out of 45.
Soaked both Mutilates on pull 24 and died at 1:08; Anti-Magic Shell once all fight, presumably saved for something special.
Amonamarth
Blood Death Knight
Sszorak 16 → 16 · Explorers 7 → 10
Talents 4 swaps suggested
Good
Death and Decay uptime 81%, above the top Blood logs. Potion on 10 of 11 pulls. The parts of the game that happen during the fight are going fine.
Lost Explorers 10th, up from 7th, on a kill with one death.
Bad
Five empty enchant slots and no weapon oil for the second week in a row. The enchants have now been missing longer than Auot has been in the guild.
Two spec talents that 0 of 30 top Bloods take, in place of two that 93% take. Somebody built that tree on purpose.
Auot
Protection Paladin
First night in the log · Vashnik parse 5
Talents hero tree differs from top logs
Good
First Heroic night with the team: three kills with zero deaths on Nek'zali, Sentinels and Vashnik.
Healthstone on every single pull. The only person in the raid who did.
Bad
Eight empty enchant slots, no weapon oil, no potion, lesser food. At 313 item level that's the biggest upgrade in the raid.
Templar hero tree where 30 of 30 top Protection logs are Lightsmith; the guide build is ten talents away.
Sszorak is a single-target fight with forced movement, and the Elemental who wrote a note about filler choice on Sunday showed up with Flames of the Firelord instead of Swelling Maelstrom, then let 10 of the 12 Power of the Maelstrom procs that build generates expire unused. You cast Lightning Bolt 13 times a minute; the top Farseers at your item level cast it 22. You spent 20 seconds of every minute not casting against their 13, on a fight where Spiritwalker's Grace exists for exactly that, and you pressed it once. You died to Ravage twice, at 2:43 on pulls 21 and 23. Ravage is the tank frontal. You are a caster standing 30 yards away, and you found it twice at the same second. 83rd percentile on the kill is up from 71st, and it is still 54k DPS short of the top four.
Gear and consumables
Weapon enchant Enchant Weapon - Arcane Mastery (top logs use Rite of the Hash'ey)
Potion on 15 of 15 pulls. Food 15/15, flask 15/15, oil 15/15.
Trinkets: Vile Vial of Volatile Venom (321), Gebbo's Bottomless Bag (334). Top 30 logs: Vile Vial of Volatile Venom (26), Gebbo's Bottomless Bag (23), Wavecaller's Seastone (6).
On-use trinket: 3 uses, 3 inside your burst window (top logs: 3 of 3).
What to change
Spiritwalker's Grace on every intermission and every Raging Crosswinds. One use in six minutes is the single biggest gap: 20 seconds a minute not casting against 13 for the top logs.
Power of the Maelstrom: 10 of 12 procs expired. Either use the Lightning Bolts the proc wants, or take Swelling Maelstrom like the Method build and stop generating a proc you don't spend.
Lightning Bolt 13.3 a minute vs 21.7. Those are the filler casts lost to movement; fix the first point and this fixes itself.
Ancestral Swiftness first use at 36 seconds; the top logs press it at the pull with the opener.
Ravage killed you at 2:43 on pulls 21 and 23. The frontal is aimed at the tank. After the winds, get back to the ranged spot, not the tank's spot.
Astral Shift once in six minutes. Venomous Surge and the wind landings are what it's for.
Weapon enchant is still Arcane Mastery. All four top logs run Rite of the Hash'ey.
Mechanics and deaths
Sszorak: touched Tempest 15 times over the night (raid median 15). Each touch stacks a 30% slow, which is what turns a wind into a fall.
Fell or was blown off during the intermission winds 2 times.
Pull 16 (The Lost Explorers), 6:03: Relic Rupture.
Pull 21 (Sszorak), 2:43: Ravage, the tank-only frontal.
Pull 22 (Sszorak), 1:48: a Tempest vortex.
Pull 23 (Sszorak), 2:43: Ravage, the tank-only frontal.
Pull 24 (Sszorak), 5:14: Melee.
Pull 25 (Sszorak), 1:29: a Tempest vortex.
Pull 27 (Sszorak), 3:16: no killing blow in the log (fall or disconnect).
Pull 29 (Sszorak), 3:31: Mutilate with too few people in the cone.
Healthstone used on 5 of 15 pulls; potion on 15 of 15.
Talents
Hero tree and spec talents are within the top-30 spread. Method's single-target build drops Flames of the Firelord for Swelling Maelstrom; Icy Veins drops Master of the Elements for Molten Wrath. You're on neither.
Hero tree Farseer: same as 30 of 30 top logs.
Nearest guide build "Raid single-target (Method)": you lack Swelling Maelstrom; you have Flames of the Firelord instead.
The numbers
You did 174k DPS on the Sszorak kill. The four best Elemental logs on the same hero tree at item level 323–325 did a median of 228k.

Up on four of the five shared bosses, 73rd on the Sszorak kill at item level 316, every cast rate within 10% of the top Diabolists, a potion on all 15 pulls. The script went looking for something to flag and came back with a 311 trinket and a healthstone count of zero. Zero. From the Warlock. The person who puts the healthstones down is tied for the lowest healthstone count in the raid, with Animus, which is not company anyone should want to keep. Mindpiercer's Sigil at 311 isn't in any top-30 log; they run Gebbo's plus Vile Vial of Volatile Venom. And the Tempest at 1:26 on pull 22 was the first death of the pull, so for about thirty seconds Charlicious was the problem, a sentence this script has not had to write before.
Gear and consumables
Potion on 15 of 15 pulls. Food 15/15, flask 15/15, oil 15/15.
Trinkets: Mindpiercer's Sigil (311), Gebbo's Bottomless Bag (318). Top 30 logs: Gebbo's Bottomless Bag (27), Vile Vial of Volatile Venom (12), Stormbound Emblem of Dazar (6).
No on-use trinket. 3 of 4 top logs press one with their main cooldown.
What to change
Trinket: Mindpiercer's Sigil (311) is the weak slot. Top logs: Gebbo's (27 of 30) plus Vile Vial of Volatile Venom (12) as the on-use.
Healthstone: 0 of 15 pulls. You're the one who makes them.
Pull 22, 1:26: Tempest, first death of the pull. Pull 27, 3:14: Viscous Cyst burst. Stand on the middle pixel for the winds, not near the cyst markers.
Hand of Gul'dan 13.0 a minute against 15.1 is the only rate meaningfully under the top logs. That's movement; Demonic Circle before the winds.
Potion on every pull and two on the kill. Keep it.
Mechanics and deaths
Sszorak: touched Tempest 10 times over the night (raid median 15). Each touch stacks a 30% slow, which is what turns a wind into a fall.
Fell or was blown off during the intermission winds 3 times.
Pull 8 (Entombed Sentinels), 2:13: Contaminate, the first death of the pull.
Pull 16 (The Lost Explorers), 6:13: Melee.
Pull 21 (Sszorak), 2:39: Mutilate with too few people in the cone.
Pull 22 (Sszorak), 1:26: a Tempest vortex, the first death of the pull.
Pull 23 (Sszorak), 2:44: the raid-wide tick finishing you off.
Pull 24 (Sszorak), 4:24: fell during the intermission winds.
Pull 25 (Sszorak), 1:31: Melee.
Pull 26 (Sszorak), 2:06: the raid-wide tick finishing you off.
Pull 27 (Sszorak), 3:14: a Viscous Cyst burst.
Pull 28 (Sszorak), 2:00: fell during the intermission winds, death 2 of the pull.
Pull 29 (Sszorak), 4:06: fell during the intermission winds.
Healthstone used on 0 of 15 pulls; potion on 15 of 15.
Talents
Identical to the Diabolist cleave build and to all 30 top logs.
Hero tree Diabolist: same as 30 of 30 top logs.
Guide build: identical to "Raid 2-target cleave".
The numbers
You did 161k DPS on the Sszorak kill. The four best Demonology logs on the same hero tree at item level 323–325 did a median of 220k.

Every major cooldown went out on time: Wake of Ashes, Execution Sentence, Divine Toll and Avenging Wrath all match the top logs' rate. Between the cooldowns it gets looser: Holy Power waste 39% against 27%, 11 of 15 Divine Arbiter procs expired, Hammer of Wrath 4.3 a minute against 8.0, and the top Rets cast Divine Storm 7.4 times a minute on this fight where you cast it 0.2. Avenging Wrath uptime 36% against 49%. You died to Mutilate three times, the most in the raid, and three of your deaths were early ones (2:31 on pull 21, 0:58 on pull 25, 2:35 on pull 29 as the first death of the pull), with no healthstone used in 15 pulls. Heart of the Crusader is taken by 77% of top Rets; you have Blade of Vengeance and Blessed Champion, which 23% take.
Gear and consumables
Potion on 11 of 15 pulls. Food 15/15, flask 15/15, oil 15/15.
Trinkets: Sszorak's Ferocity (321), Blazebinder's Hoof (321). Top 30 logs: Zul'jin's Guillotine Technique (28), Voracious Heart of Ula'tek (23), Vile Vial of Volatile Venom (4).
No on-use trinket. 4 of 4 top logs press one with their main cooldown.
What to change
Holy Power: 39% wasted. Don't generate at 4-5; Final Verdict first.
Divine Arbiter: 11 of 15 procs expired unused.
Hammer of Wrath 4.3 a minute against 8.0. Under Avenging Wrath it's always usable and it's your hardest hitter per global.
Divine Storm: top Rets on Sszorak cast it 7.4 a minute (Herald's Dawnlight spread); you cast it 0.2. Check the guide's Herald rotation for when Storm beats Verdict.
Mutilate killed you at 2:31 on pull 21, 4:53 on pull 24 and 2:35 on pull 29, the last one as the first death of the pull. After the winds, be in your group's cone before the Apex starts.
Healthstone: 0 of 15 pulls. Potion on 11 of 15, only ever at the pull; a second one at the 5-minute mark on the kill was free.
Talents: Heart of the Crusader (77% of top) in place of Blade of Vengeance or Blessed Champion (23%).
Mechanics and deaths
Sszorak: touched Tempest 19 times over the night (raid median 15). Each touch stacks a 30% slow, which is what turns a wind into a fall.
Fell or was blown off during the intermission winds 2 times.
Pull 16 (The Lost Explorers), 5:42: Melee.
Pull 21 (Sszorak), 2:31: Mutilate with too few people in the cone, death 3 of the pull.
Pull 24 (Sszorak), 4:53: Mutilate with too few people in the cone.
Pull 25 (Sszorak), 0:58: no killing blow in the log (fall or disconnect), death 2 of the pull.
Pull 26 (Sszorak), 2:00: the raid-wide tick finishing you off.
Pull 27 (Sszorak), 3:15: a Viscous Cyst burst.
Pull 29 (Sszorak), 2:35: Mutilate with too few people in the cone, the first death of the pull.
Pull 29 (Sszorak), 4:02: the Raging Crosswinds launch.
Healthstone used on 0 of 15 pulls; potion on 11 of 15.
Talents
Herald of the Sun, like 26 of 30 top logs. Heart of the Crusader is taken by 77% of top Rets and you lack it; Blade of Vengeance and Blessed Champion are taken by 23%. The Herald cleave guide build matches you exactly, so this is guide vs logs.
Hero tree Herald of the Sun: same as 26 of 30 top logs.
Missing Heart of the Crusader, taken by 77% of top logs.
You have Blade of Vengeance, taken by 23% of top logs.
You have Blessed Champion, taken by 23% of top logs.
Guide build: identical to "Raid 2-target cleave (Herald of the Sun)".
The numbers
You did 133k DPS on the Sszorak kill. The four best Retribution logs on the same hero tree at item level 321–325 did a median of 239k.

Lost Explorers 15th to 50th and Sszorak 15th to 25th against last Thursday, on the hero tree 29 of 30 top logs use. The rotation is where the damage is: Vengeful Retreat is a damage button for Devourer and the top logs press it 4 times a minute; you pressed it once in six minutes. Cull 3.4 a minute against 7.3, Reap 3.1 against 6.8, Void Ray 2.4 against 6.1, and Consume 13.1 against 7.6, so fragments are being eaten one at a time instead of built into Reap. 10 of 14 Voidstep procs expired. Rings still unenchanted from Sunday, the waist socket is still empty, and the gems are 278s. Five healthstones used, second-most in the raid.
Gear and consumables
No Ring 1 enchant (4 of 4 top logs have one: Enchant Ring - Eyes of the Eagle)
No Ring 2 enchant (4 of 4 top logs have one: Enchant Ring - Eyes of the Eagle)
Empty socket: waist
Legs enchant +16 Intellect (top logs use +41 Intellect & +115 Stamina)
Head enchant Enchant Helm - Rune of Avoidance (top logs use Enchant Helm - Empowered Rune of Avoidance)
No on-use trinket. 3 of 4 top logs press one with their main cooldown.
What to change
Vengeful Retreat: 1 use in 6 minutes. Top Devourers: 4 a minute. It's part of the rotation, not a movement tool.
Build fragments into Reap and Cull instead of Consuming them one at a time: Consume 13.1 a minute (top 7.6), Reap 3.1 (top 6.8), Cull 3.4 (top 7.3).
Void Ray 2.4 a minute against 6.1; Voidstep 10 of 14 procs expired. Same fix: the proc wants Void Ray.
Soul Immolation first cast at 22 seconds; top logs at 4. It's in the opener.
Rings unenchanted, waist socket empty, three 278 gems, +16 Intellect legs. Same list as Sunday.
Pull 25, 0:39: Tempest, first death of the pull. Pull 26, 1:31: the Mutilated Gash bleed; it ticks after the soak, so don't sit at half health for it.
Flask of the Shattered Sun; three of the four top logs run Magisters.
Mechanics and deaths
Sszorak: touched Tempest 21 times over the night (raid median 15). Each touch stacks a 30% slow, which is what turns a wind into a fall.
Fell or was blown off during the intermission winds 1 time.
Pull 21 (Sszorak), 2:43: no killing blow in the log (fall or disconnect).
Pull 22 (Sszorak), 1:45: a Viscous Cyst burst, death 3 of the pull.
Pull 23 (Sszorak), 2:31: Mutilate with too few people in the cone.
Pull 24 (Sszorak), 4:49: Ravage, the tank-only frontal.
Pull 25 (Sszorak), 0:39: a Tempest vortex, the first death of the pull.
Pull 26 (Sszorak), 1:31: the Mutilated Gash bleed, the first death of the pull.
Pull 27 (Sszorak), 3:31: Mutilate with too few people in the cone.
Pull 29 (Sszorak), 3:58: the raid-wide tick finishing you off.
Healthstone used on 5 of 11 pulls; potion on 11 of 11.
Talents
Void-Scarred, like 29 of 30 top logs. No spec talent differs from the top-30 spread. The single-target guide lists Sweet Suffering and Voidblade, which the guide file may have mis-keyed, so treat the top-log comparison as the reference.
Hero tree Void-Scarred: same as 29 of 30 top logs.
The numbers
You did 120k DPS on the Sszorak kill. The four best Devourer logs on the same hero tree at item level 320–323 did a median of 215k.

The kill happened because you swapped to Preservation for the last three pulls, which makes you the most valuable player of the night by the generous definition of 'had an offspec'. As Devastation on the first four bosses: Sentinels 78th and Lost Explorers 74th, up from 48th and 45th, Dragonrage and Tip the Scales each 3 of a possible 4, and Star Salvo (77% of top logs) missing, presumably because the talent tree was last opened when Star Salvo was still a constellation. As Preservation: a Chronowarden build that none of the 30 top Preservation logs use, missing six talents all 30 take (Nozdormu's Teachings, Exhilarating Burst, Fluttering Seedlings, Field of Dreams, Inner Flame, Temporal Artificer), 56 of 83 Merithra's Blessing procs overwritten, 20 seconds a minute not casting, 154k HPS against 427k. The offspec saved the night the way a bucket saves a boat. Chest still unenchanted; Sunday's note said chest and shoulders, so the shoulders got done, which is 50%, roughly the share of the Preservation tree that's current.
Gear and consumables
No chest enchant (4 of 4 top logs have one: Enchant Chest - Mark of the Worldsoul)
Head enchant Enchant Helm - Rune of Avoidance (top logs use Enchant Helm - Empowered Hex of Leeching)
Shoulder enchant Enchant Shoulders - Flight of the Eagle (top logs use Enchant Shoulders - Silvermoon's Mending)
Flask: Flask of the Shattered Sun (top logs use Flask of the Magisters)
Potion on 12 of 15 pulls. Food 15/15, flask 15/15, oil 11/15.
Trinkets: Wavecaller's Seastone (321), Gebbo's Bottomless Bag (321). Top 30 logs: Soulcoiler Ritual Vessel (26), Gebbo's Bottomless Bag (18), Wavecaller's Seastone (4).
No on-use trinket. 4 of 4 top logs press one with their main cooldown.
What to change
Preservation build: Flameshaper (30 of 30 top logs), with Nozdormu's Teachings, Exhilarating Burst, Fluttering Seedlings, Field of Dreams, Inner Flame and Temporal Artificer. Import a guide build; the current one has Lifebind, Unshakable, Spiritual Clarity and Dream Simulacrum, which 0% take.
Preservation rotation on Flameshaper: Emerald Blossom 3.4 a minute against 11, Echo 6 against 9.4, Temporal Anomaly never. Merithra's Blessing 56 of 83 overwritten.
Devastation: add Star Salvo (77% of top logs). Dragonrage and Tip the Scales 3 of 4 possible each; the fourth was available at the end of Vashnik.
Devastation: Living Flame 5.5 a minute against 8.4. Those are the Burnout procs during movement; Hover first.
Chest unenchanted (all four top logs: Mark of the Worldsoul). Oil missing on 4 of 15 pulls, which lines up with the spec swap; re-oil after swapping weapons.
Sszorak: Viscous Cyst bursts killed you on pulls 26 and 27 (1:59, 3:13); 3 falls in the winds. Stand on the middle pixel, cysts are where the wind takes you.
Seven healthstones, most in the raid. Keep that.
Mechanics and deaths
Sszorak: touched Tempest 11 times over the night (raid median 15). Each touch stacks a 30% slow, which is what turns a wind into a fall.
Fell or was blown off during the intermission winds 3 times.
Pull 16 (The Lost Explorers), 3:20: Splinters, the first death of the pull.
Pull 22 (Sszorak), 1:48: fell during the intermission winds.
Pull 24 (Sszorak), 3:26: the raid-wide tick finishing you off, death 3 of the pull.
Pull 26 (Sszorak), 1:59: a Viscous Cyst burst.
Pull 27 (Sszorak), 3:13: a Viscous Cyst burst, death 2 of the pull.
Pull 29 (Sszorak), 4:13: fell during the intermission winds.
Healthstone used on 7 of 15 pulls; potion on 12 of 15.
Talents
Devastation: Scalecommander like all 30 top logs; Star Salvo (77% of top) is the one missing talent. Preservation: Chronowarden, used by 0 of 30 top logs (all Flameshaper), with six talents missing that 87-100% of top Preservations take.
Hero tree Scalecommander: same as 30 of 30 top logs.
Missing Star Salvo, taken by 77% of top logs.
Nearest guide build "Raid single-target (Method, Rising Fury 4/4 + Azure Sweep)": you lack Azure Sweep; you have Eternity's Span instead.
The numbers (Devastation)
You did 191k DPS on the Vashnik the Malignant kill. The four best Devastation logs on the same hero tree at item level 325–325 did a median of 258k.

Sszorak 65th, up from 59th, on a build that matches the top Sunfury logs except for Lessons in Debilitation (87% of top), which was the note on Sunday too. Six Tempest touches across ten pulls is the fewest in the raid, and nine healthstones is the most. Arcane Blast at 5.1 a minute against 2.9 is the one rotational gap: those are globals that should be Missiles or Barrage. The gear note is the same as Sunday: chest, feet, head and shoulders unenchanted and no weapon oil on any of 15 pulls, at item level 325.
Gear and consumables
No chest enchant (4 of 4 top logs have one: Enchant Chest - Mark of the Worldsoul)
No feet enchant (4 of 4 top logs have one: Enchant Boots - Lynx's Dexterity)
No head enchant (4 of 4 top logs have one: Enchant Helm - Empowered Rune of Avoidance)
No shoulder enchant (4 of 4 top logs have one: Enchant Shoulders - Amirdrassil's Grace)
Weapon oil missing on 15 of 15 pulls
Potion on 13 of 15 pulls. Food 15/15, flask 15/15, oil 0/15.
Trinkets: Gebbo's Bottomless Bag (334), Wavecaller's Seastone (334). Top 30 logs: Freightrunner's Flask (27), Gebbo's Bottomless Bag (24), Mindpiercer's Sigil (4).
No on-use trinket. 4 of 4 top logs press one with their main cooldown.
What to change
Chest, feet, head and shoulders unenchanted, no weapon oil on 15 pulls. Second week. Fix before Thursday.
Lessons in Debilitation: 87% of top Sunfury logs take it. Same note as Sunday.
Arcane Blast 5.1 a minute against 2.9. In the Sunfury build Blast is for Arcane Surge windows; outside them, Missiles and Barrage.
Pull 23, 2:31: Mutilate with too few in the cone. Pull 29, 2:48: the Mutilated Gash bleed. Prismatic Barrier before the Mutilate, not after.
Potion on 13 of 15, and on the kill only at 4:47. Pre-pot too; the cooldown lines up with the 5-minute mark anyway.
Gebbo's and Wavecaller's are both in the top-30 list, so the trinkets are fine. Freightrunner's Flask (27 of 30) is the on-use they'd add.
Mechanics and deaths
Sszorak: touched Tempest 6 times over the night (raid median 15). Each touch stacks a 30% slow, which is what turns a wind into a fall.
Fell or was blown off during the intermission winds 2 times.
Pull 16 (The Lost Explorers), 5:43: Melee.
Pull 17 (The Lost Explorers), 3:22: Mighty Thud, the first death of the pull.
Pull 23 (Sszorak), 2:31: Mutilate with too few people in the cone.
Pull 24 (Sszorak), 4:49: Ravage, the tank-only frontal.
Pull 25 (Sszorak), 1:23: Melee.
Pull 26 (Sszorak), 1:56: a Viscous Cyst burst, death 2 of the pull.
Pull 27 (Sszorak), 3:17: a Viscous Cyst burst.
Pull 29 (Sszorak), 2:48: the Mutilated Gash bleed, death 2 of the pull.
Healthstone used on 9 of 15 pulls; potion on 13 of 15.
Talents
Sunfury like all 30 top logs. Lessons in Debilitation is the only hero talent missing (87% of top). The guide's cleave build differs by four, but the top logs agree with you, so ignore the guide there.
Hero tree Sunfury: same as 30 of 30 top logs.
Missing hero talent Lessons in Debilitation (87% of top).

Potion on 14 of 15 pulls and a healthstone on 8, both near the top of the raid, and Kill Command and Barbed Shot were never clipped. The problem is the gaps between buttons: 33 casts a minute against 61 for the top Pack Leaders. Kill Command 11.9 a minute against 19.7, Cobra Shot 8 against 17.7, Barbed Shot 6.5 against 11.2, Bestial Wrath 8 of a possible 12, Focus waste 21%. At item level 313 the gear gap is real (103k against 225k for the top four at 322-325), but half the button presses is not a gear problem. Venomous Surge killed you at 1:40 on pulls 21 and 22; you fell in the winds four times, including on the kill at 4:03.
Weapon enchant Enchant Weapon - Arcane Mastery (top logs use Rite of the Hash'ey)
Potion on 14 of 15 pulls. Food 15/15, flask 15/15, oil 15/15.

No on-use trinket. 2 of 4 top logs press one with their main cooldown.
What to change
Press something every global. 33 casts a minute against 61. Kill Command on cooldown (11.9 vs 19.7), Cobra Shot in every gap (8 vs 17.7).
Barbed Shot: 6.5 a minute against 11.2, uptime 34% against 50%. Never let it drop; it's what keeps Frenzy up.
Bestial Wrath 8 of 12 possible, uptime 34% against 49%. It's a 30-second cooldown; press it as it comes back.
Focus waste 21% (top 11%). You're sitting at full Focus between Kill Commands; that's Cobra Shot time.
Venomous Surge killed you at 1:40 on pulls 21 and 22. When you get the mark, run out and press Survival of the Fittest; healers can't see it coming.
Four falls in the winds, including on the kill at 4:03. Stand on the middle pixel and don't move until the third gust is done.
Gear: at 313 everything upgrades. Keeper's Seething Core (308) is in the top-30 trinket list, so that slot's fine.
Mechanics and deaths
Sszorak: touched Tempest 10 times over the night (raid median 15). Each touch stacks a 30% slow, which is what turns a wind into a fall.
Fell or was blown off during the intermission winds 4 times.
Pull 16 (The Lost Explorers), 5:47: Melee.
Pull 21 (Sszorak), 1:40: the Venomous Surge DoT, the first death of the pull.

Pull 25 (Sszorak), 1:13: Mutilate with too few people in the cone, death 3 of the pull.

Welcome to the log. On the Sszorak kill you cast Flame Shock 4.4 times a minute and Lava Burst 4.1 times a minute, which is 8.5 damage spells a minute from a healer who finished at 198k HPS against 407k for the four best Totemic Restos at your item level. Chain Heal, the spell the whole Totemic build is built around, went out 11.6 times a minute; they cast it 20. Healing Rain was down 31% of the fight. Nature's Swiftness was used twice in six minutes, the first time at 1:46. You spent 25 seconds of every minute not casting anything, against 15 for the top logs. You died on 8 of the 10 Sszorak pulls, including to Ravage at 2:27 on pull 21: Ravage is the tank frontal. Zero healthstones, zero potions, 15 pulls. The first-half parses were your best Thursday on record, so the hands work when they're on the right buttons.
Gear and consumables
Potion on 0 of 15 pulls. Food 15/15, flask 15/15, oil 15/15.
Chain Heal is the build. 11.6 a minute against 20 for the top Totemics, while Flame Shock and Lava Burst took 8.5 globals a minute. Stop DPSing until the raid is topped, which on Sszorak is never.
Healing Rain uptime 68% (top 88%). Recast it every time the raid moves; Surging Totem went out 10 of a possible 15 times.
Nature's Swiftness: 2 uses, first at 1:46. Top logs use it 4-5 times starting in the first 10 seconds. It's a free instant Healing Wave or Chain Heal; press it on cooldown.
Tidal Waves: 25 of 70 procs overwritten. Riptide, then spend both charges before the next Riptide.
25 seconds a minute not casting (top 15), and 3.9 cancelled casts a minute. Spiritwalker's Grace exists for the winds.
Ravage killed you at 2:27 on pull 21: a healer in the tank frontal. Pulls 26 and 27 were Viscous Cyst bursts; the cysts sit where the raid will be blown, so stand on the middle pixel, not near the markers.
Zero healthstones and zero potions on 15 pulls. You have both. Healers can drink.
Mechanics and deaths
Sszorak: touched Tempest 15 times over the night (raid median 15). Each touch stacks a 30% slow, which is what turns a wind into a fall.
Fell or was blown off during the intermission winds 2 times.
Pull 16 (The Lost Explorers), 6:20: Melee.
Pull 21 (Sszorak), 2:27: Ravage, the tank-only frontal, death 2 of the pull.
Pull 23 (Sszorak), 2:18: fell during the intermission winds, death 2 of the pull.

Talents
Build is identical to the Icy Veins Totemic raid build and all 30 top logs are Totemic. The talents are right; the casts aren't.
Hero tree Totemic: same as 30 of 30 top logs.
Guide build: identical to "Raid healing (Totemic) — Icy Veins / top Heroic logs".
The numbers
You did 198k healing per second on the Sszorak kill. The four best Restoration logs on the same hero tree at item level 323–323 did a median of 407k.

Up on all five shared bosses against last Thursday, which the script would like to acknowledge in both official languages, and the first-half parses (Nek'zali 9th to 44th, Vashnik 14th to 32nd) are real progress. On the Sszorak kill you did 98th-percentile damage for a Holy Priest: Smite 7 a minute, Holy Fire 2, Chastise 2, which is a lot of aggression from someone who presumably apologized to the snake afterwards. The healing paid for it: Flash Heal 1.9 a minute against 8.5 for the top Oracles, Holy Word: Serenity 3.8 against 8.2, Benediction 6.7 against 13.3, and 25% of your mana was never spent, which isn't healing, it's a savings account, and the exchange rate on it is terrible. 195k HPS against 431k, 10th percentile. You touched Tempest 25 times across the night, the most in the raid, one 'sorry' per vortex, and died to Ravage (the tank frontal) at 2:43 on pull 23, which is at least polite: you let the tank go first. Feet and shoulders are unenchanted.
Gear and consumables
No feet enchant (4 of 4 top logs have one: Enchant Boots - Shaladrassil's Roots)
No shoulder enchant (4 of 4 top logs have one: Enchant Shoulders - Silvermoon's Mending)
Potion on 11 of 15 pulls. Food 15/15, flask 15/15, oil 15/15.
Heal first. Flash Heal 1.9 a minute (top 8.5), Serenity 3.8 (top 8.2). Smite is fine when everyone is full, which on Sszorak was never.
25% of your mana sat unspent at the end. Mana you end with is healing you didn't do.
Surge of Light: 8 of 10 procs expired. It's a free instant Flash Heal; spend it.
Benediction: 40 of 78 procs overwritten. Alternate Prayer of Mending between targets instead of recasting on the same one.
Tempest: 25 touches, most in the raid. Each one stacks a 30% slow, and that's why the winds get you (3 falls).
Pull 23, 2:43: Ravage, the tank frontal. Pull 27, 3:14: Tempest. Pull 23, 2:03: the Mutilated Gash bleed during the winds; Desperate Prayer there.
Feet and shoulders unenchanted (all four top logs: Shaladrassil's Roots, Silvermoon's Mending). Apotheosis 2 of 3 possible, Guardian Spirit 1 of 2.
Mechanics and deaths
Sszorak: touched Tempest 25 times over the night (raid median 15). Each touch stacks a 30% slow, which is what turns a wind into a fall.
Fell or was blown off during the intermission winds 3 times.
Pull 16 (The Lost Explorers), 6:03: Relic Rupture.
Pull 23 (Sszorak), 2:03: the Mutilated Gash bleed, the first death of the pull.
Pull 23 (Sszorak), 2:43: Ravage, the tank-only frontal.
Pull 24 (Sszorak), 4:37: fell during the intermission winds.
Pull 25 (Sszorak), 1:30: the raid-wide tick finishing you off.
Pull 27 (Sszorak), 3:14: a Tempest vortex, death 3 of the pull.
Pull 28 (Sszorak), 1:59: fell during the intermission winds, the first death of the pull.
Pull 29 (Sszorak), 4:04: the raid-wide tick finishing you off.
Healthstone used on 0 of 15 pulls; potion on 11 of 15.
Talents
Oracle, like all 30 top logs, and no spec talent differs from them by more than the usual spread.
Hero tree Oracle: same as 30 of 30 top logs.
Nearest guide build "Raid healing (Oracle)": you lack Assured Safety, Divine Feathers, Epiphany, Foreseen Circumstances, Guiding Light, Piety, Prayer of Mending, Preemptive Care, Preventive Measures, Prompt Prognosis, Prophet's Insight, Prophet's Will, Radiant Plea, Say Your Prayers, Twinsight, Unfolding Vision, Waste No Time, Words of the Wise.
The numbers
You did 195k healing per second on the Sszorak kill. The four best Holy logs on the same hero tree at item level 318–320 did a median of 431k.

You swapped to Blood so the night could happen with ten people, tanked all 15 pulls, and the Sszorak kill parse (57th) beat every Unholy parse from last Thursday, which is either a compliment to the tanking or a comment on the Unholy, and the script declines to say which. Potion on 7 pulls, up from zero on Sunday, so the potion bar has been located. The gap to the top Bloods is Death and Decay: down 88% of the fight, with 37 of your 45 Crimson Scourge procs (free, instant Death and Decay) overwritten before you used them. Top Bloods keep it up 73%. Forty-five chances to press a free button, eight taken. Marrowrend went out 2.9 a minute with Bone Shield already at 99%, which is re-locking a locked door. On pull 24 you soaked both Mutilates of the first Apex and died at 1:08: took one for the team, then immediately took another one for the team.
Gear and consumables
Ring 1 enchant Enchant Ring - Nature's Fury (top logs use Enchant Ring - Eyes of the Eagle)
Potion on 7 of 15 pulls. Food 15/15, flask 15/15, oil 15/15.
Trinkets: Manaheart's Binding Flame (311), Gebbo's Bottomless Bag (334). Top 30 logs: Zul'jin's Guillotine Technique (24), Voracious Heart of Ula'tek (21), Tumor of the Swarm (4).
No on-use trinket. 3 of 4 top logs press one with their main cooldown.
What to change
Death and Decay: 12% uptime against 73%. Crimson Scourge makes it free and instant; you overwrote 37 of 45 procs. Press it the moment it lights up, every time.
Marrowrend 2.9 a minute against 1.15, with Bone Shield at 99%. Only Marrowrend when Bone Shield is under 5 stacks; Heart Strike otherwise.
Death's Caress 0.2 a minute (top 1.4). It's how you keep Bone Shield up from range during the winds.
Anti-Magic Shell once in six minutes; Icebound Fortitude once. Venomous Surge and the cyst bursts are magic damage. AMS covers them.
Pull 24, 1:08: you soaked both Mutilates. Your group is one cone, the other group takes the other; after the first hit, step out.
Nek'zali, 5:43: Hollowing Strikes. Late-fight tank death on a kill; use Vampiric Blood earlier in the swap window.
Talents: the Icy Veins San'layn build takes Bloodied Blade over Deadly Reach.
Mechanics and deaths
Sszorak: touched Tempest 16 times over the night (raid median 15). Each touch stacks a 30% slow, which is what turns a wind into a fall.
Fell or was blown off during the intermission winds 3 times.
Soaked two Mutilates in a row 1 time (the second one hits for 500% more).
Pull 2 (Nek'zali the Soulcoiler), 5:43: Hollowing Strikes, the first death of the pull.
Pull 16 (The Lost Explorers), 4:34: Shredding Shards, death 3 of the pull.
Pull 21 (Sszorak), 2:51: the raid-wide tick finishing you off.
Pull 24 (Sszorak), 1:08: Mutilate with too few people in the cone, the first death of the pull.
Pull 24 (Sszorak), 4:53: Mutilate with too few people in the cone.
Pull 25 (Sszorak), 1:16: the Mutilated Gash bleed.
Pull 27 (Sszorak), 3:16: no killing blow in the log (fall or disconnect).
Healthstone used on 3 of 15 pulls; potion on 7 of 15.
Talents
San'layn, which 14 of the 30 top logs use (16 run Deathbringer, so both are fine). Nearest guide build is Icy Veins San'layn, two talents apart: it takes Bloodied Blade instead of Deadly Reach.
Hero tree San'layn: same as 14 of 30 top logs.
Nearest guide build "Raid tanking (San'layn) - Icy Veins": you lack Bloodied Blade; you have Deadly Reach instead.
The numbers
You did 67k DPS on the Sszorak kill. The four best Blood logs on the same hero tree at item level 323–325 did a median of 106k.

Death and Decay uptime was 81%, above the top logs, and the potion was on 10 of 11 pulls, so the buttons that matter during the fight get pressed. Then the rest of the sheet, which is Sunday's sheet, because the sheet has not changed: five empty enchant slots (chest, legs, feet, head, shoulders), no weapon oil on any pull, and Gorefiend's Grasp and Sanguinary Burst missing from a build that has Umbilicus Eternus and Abomination Limb instead, which 0 of 30 top Bloods take. Zero. The script has a column for it and the column is as empty as the chest slot. Four of your Sszorak deaths were Mutilate cones you were the only person standing in, right after the winds on pulls 21, 23 and 27. That one is the group landing late and you paying for it, so call the regroup as you land, and while you're calling things, call an enchanter.
Gear and consumables
No chest enchant (4 of 4 top logs have one: Enchant Chest - Mark of the Worldsoul)
No legs enchant (4 of 4 top logs have one: +41 Agility/Strength & +115 Stamina)
No feet enchant (4 of 4 top logs have one: Enchant Boots - Farstrider's Hunt)
No head enchant (4 of 4 top logs have one: Enchant Helm - Empowered Blessing of Speed)

Flask: Flask of Thalassian Resistance (top logs use Flask of the Blood Knights)
Potion on 10 of 11 pulls. Food 11/11, flask 11/11, oil 0/11.
Trinkets: Manaheart's Binding Flame (311), Keeper's Seething Core (308). Top 30 logs: Zul'jin's Guillotine Technique (24), Voracious Heart of Ula'tek (21), Tumor of the Swarm (4).
No on-use trinket. 3 of 4 top logs press one with their main cooldown.
What to change
Enchants: chest, legs, feet, head and shoulders are empty, and no weapon oil on 11 pulls. Second week. This is a 10-minute fix before Thursday.
Talents: swap Umbilicus Eternus and Abomination Limb for Gorefiend's Grasp and Sanguinary Burst (93% of top Bloods). Hero tree is fine.
Marrowrend 3.4 a minute against 1.05 with Bone Shield at 98%; those are Heart Strikes. Death's Caress 0 casts: use it during the winds.
Raise Dead: 2 uses, first at 2:00. It's a 2-minute cooldown with a 1-minute pet; press it at the pull.
After the winds, your Mutilate group was late on pulls 21, 23 and 27 (2:31, 2:31, 2:27): you took the whole cone alone and the Gash finished you. Call the regroup as you land.
Ravage at 1:20 on pull 25 and 3:23 on pull 27: taunt mid-combo so you don't take back-to-back Ravages at 400% increased damage.
Weapon enchant is Rune of the Fallen Crusader; the top four run Rune of Sanguination. Rings are Thalassian Haste; they run Eyes of the Eagle.
Mechanics and deaths
Sszorak: touched Tempest 22 times over the night (raid median 15). Each touch stacks a 30% slow, which is what turns a wind into a fall.
Fell or was blown off during the intermission winds 4 times.
Pull 21 (Sszorak), 2:34: the Mutilated Gash bleed.
Pull 23 (Sszorak), 2:48: the Mutilated Gash bleed.
Pull 24 (Sszorak), 5:09: the Mutilated Gash bleed.
Pull 25 (Sszorak), 1:20: Ravage, the tank-only frontal.
Pull 27 (Sszorak), 2:30: Mutilate with too few people in the cone, the first death of the pull.
Pull 27 (Sszorak), 3:23: Ravage, the tank-only frontal.
Pull 28 (Sszorak), 2:01: fell during the intermission winds, death 3 of the pull.
Healthstone used on 1 of 11 pulls; potion on 10 of 11.

First Heroic night with the group, item level 313, and three clean kills to open: no deaths on Nek'zali, Sentinels or Vashnik, and a healthstone on every pull, which nobody else managed. Now the list. You're on the Templar hero tree; all 30 top Protection logs on Vashnik run Lightsmith, and the nearest guide build is ten talents away. Eight enchant slots are empty (chest, legs, feet, both rings, weapon, head, shoulders), no weapon oil, no potion on any pull, and the lesser food buff. Avenger's Shield went out 4.9 times a minute against 7.6, Hammer of Wrath 0.6 against 5.7, Word of Glory never. At 313 the gear fixes are worth more than anything else on this page.

No on-use trinket. 2 of 4 top logs press one with their main cooldown.
What to change
Enchants: eight empty slots and no oil. Chest, legs, feet, rings, weapon, head, shoulders. Cheapest upgrade available.
Hero tree: Lightsmith. 30 of 30 top logs. Then the Lightsmith guide build, which also takes Vision of Sanctity, Focused Enmity, Consecration in Flame and Ferren Marcus's Fervor.
Avenger's Shield on cooldown: 4.9 a minute against 7.6. It's your best damage and your interrupt.
Hammer of Wrath 0.6 a minute against 5.7. With Avenging Wrath and under 20% it's always available; it's a Holy Power generator you're skipping.
Word of Glory: 0 casts. Shield of the Righteous is right at 15.7 a minute, but when you're topped, a Word of Glory on a DPS is free healing.
Sentinel used once (top logs: 5 of 7 possible). It's a 1-minute cooldown; use it on every tank hit you can see coming.
Potion: none on any pull. Light's Potential or a Potion of Recklessness at the pull is 2-3% damage.
Mechanics and deaths
Pull 16 (The Lost Explorers), 3:26: Splinters, death 2 of the pull.
Pull 16 (The Lost Explorers), 5:37: Shredding Shards.
Healthstone used on 4 of 4 pulls; potion on 0 of 4.
Talents
