Hellfire Citadel Priest Style - Normal and Heroic

Recommended Posts

A collaboration of Priest tips, tricks and strategies you may have going into the 6.2 raid tier, Hellfire Citadel.

 

All information here is assumed Normal or heroic

Disc notes added

 
Hellfire Assault

Ensure you are using your EAA PoH to help with slow kills on the Metamorphed Felcasters that may pop together or are not killed fast, namely when a cannon and 2 felcasters hit meta all at once.

 

Help by using PW:S and Body and soul to help the DPS moving the bombs

 

Dispel the root/stun asap


Iron Reaver

Beware of barrage - Note it works from her front foot direction not from the centre of the boss model.

 

WoM helps with the bads who get the immolate dots and blitzed.

This fight reminds me of a junior rugby match where everyone chases the person with the ball and disregards any strategy...


Kormrok

I chose CoW over WoM to keep some heals on the tanks with stacking debuff. Personal preference will depend on raid comp.

 

Save EAA PoH and Cascade for the Pounds.


Hellfire High Council

Keep PW:S on the targets with the dispellable buff to push it as long as possible.

 

LOL easymode was this even a boss(Heroic and normal)?

 

Body and Soul helps the slow learners run out for Reap.

 

Used CoW to pad tank damage meters.


Kilrogg Deadeye

I did not get the luxury of being sent into the alternate realm (gg).

Took CoW to help on tanks.

EAA PoH + Cascade on cd/heavy damage

Body and Soul heartseeker targets to get extra range for the globules.


Gorefiend

WoM > CoW

Body and Soul to help Touch of Doom targets to get to edges

 

Can use Leap of faith to pull a target to you for the Shared Fate if you are the rooted target.

Save barrier and PI for the feast of souls AOE. It hits quite hard. Your 3 min cds will be up for each phase.

 


Shadow-Lord Iskar

WoM

Keep PW:S on the tank and the current holder of the Eye of Anzu.

 

Body and sould/lifegrip is great for helping slow passes in the wind phase

 

This addon has a healbot style approach to passing the eye

http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/iskar-assist

 

My raid had a few issues where the Fel bomb went out whilst the eye was on a tank/dps and even after passing it to a healer the bomb was unable to be dispelled.

 

Disc can hold the Eye and interrupt the caster at the same time to allow for less passing

 

EAA PoH, PI and Cascade saved for add phases and the Focused Blast

 


Fel Lord Zakuun

WoM

EAA PoH and Cascade on CD if its used on CD it should be up for the Disarmed phase when the damage is high. PI could also be saved here for PW:S spam.

 

I ensured that the melee and tanks were in their own group. This allowed the tank in the shadow realm to be healed with PoH.

 

Throw PW:S on the raiders soaking the fissures.

 

Body and Soul can help the seeds of corruption targets to move to the edges of the room faster.

In the disarm phase the tanks get wrecked! i saves Pain supp and used Barrier on them in this phase. As the raid is usually spread for soaking and avoiding barrier is useless for the raid.


Socrethar the Eternal

I used CoW as we had no pally and i used it to spam heal the targets of the Gift of the Man'ari (iceblock clears it)

Barrier for apocalypse

help to dps and silence the casters and destroyer, every bit of dps counts and healing is fairly quiet at this point

EAA PoH and bubble the soak groups for the Reverberating Blow


Xhul'horac

I used CoW on our kill but WoM would be fine if you have a paladin.

Body and Soul to help the targets dropping the fire and void fire.

Keep a good blanket of bubbles in the later phase to keep a buffer for any unplanned explosions


Tyrant Velhari

WoM

Shields are very useful in P2 when there is reduced HP.

If you have the 2 set use your penance to dump into the Touch of Harm Debuff.

Bubble can be used to cover the raid, tanks and group with Font of corruption as this is the point in the fight where there is minimal movement and you can be stacked.


Mannoroth

CoW - If your tanks require the extra absorbs to deal with the glaive toss combo's.

Body and Soul for the Shadowforce targets

Everyman works to remove Mannoroths gaze earlier however the damage still applies.


Archimonde

      Welcome Adventurers! The time has come upon us, FINALLY! The moment in Classic WoW history us diehard, loyal WoW nerds have all been waiting for. WRATH CLASSIC! Arthas Did Nothing Wrong (ADNW) has just begun recruiting (For WotLK Classic) hard-core, casual, rp, pvp, pve, raiders, anything you can think of, you are welcomed here. Although our main focus in ADNW will be progressive raiding, 10 and 25 man and pvp content, we look to have someone for just about anything. Currently we are recruiting for our CORE 10M team composed entirely of irl / internet homies. We are in need of just 1 HEALER (Highly prefer a disc priest with a shadow off spec) and another DPS. Preferably lock or Shadow priest. We are looking to fill our B 10m team entirely, so we can pool together for 25 man’s when it comes time to crush 25m. This guild was founded by a group of tight nit friends recently, who have been around since TBC. WOTLK was our turning point in WoW, and we CANNOT wait to get another crack at this and MAKE IT RIGHT. Come join the adventure of a chill environment full of helpful hands and knowledge. Feel free to reach out to me Via Discord: Daevilmonkiexp#9239 OR Bnet: Daevilmonkie#1280 just let me know you are interested in the guild and we can have a convo! ARTHAS DID NOTHING WRONG!

      To all who read,
      I am a WoW player and have been since vanilla, I’ve played several variances of classes through the expansions and this round settled with shadow priest which I ran through the majority of Legion and BfA. I have never written a guide or forum post before but decided I wanted to share my thoughts and opinions and see how other players in the same position feel as well.

      I would like to ask people to respect everyone’s opinion as this forum topic will be a place for unusual class builds, talent choices, and stat priorities. Everyone plays the game for fun and should be able to build a toon that is effective utilizing a multi style approach. I do believe that the simulators are awesome for checking gear and choices when it comes to specific cases perhaps PvP. That being said though, I feel as though sims are not really a good indicator of a talent choice or gear piece’s level of effectiveness. I am by no means a tremendously good player, probably average to be honest, but ask any top tier player and they will tell you very rarely does a pull go “perfect” for their class. these simulations then are only showing if something goes perfect, so I thought why not build a class around what “actually” happens versus the “perfect pull”, so that is what I did.
      I would love to hear what other players thoughts on the matter are and list what your individual stat priorities are and maybe discuss why!
      mine are as follows;
      1.) Mastery = Versatility
        (both of these boost damage output but versatility is not limited by number of DoTs so it helps if you are struggling to keep skills on targets.)
      2.) Haste (this increases the amount of ticks per cast, when paired with high Vers and mastery you deal large DoT damage which is great if you’re in a high movement fight.)
      3.) Critical
       This for many reasons is great. First, shadowy app procs, and secondly just plain damage bumps. Lastly, and arguably most important though is the shadow word death damage boost. When we execute (comparing to warrior skill) it deals increased damage naturally to targets below 20% health I believe. When you pair this with high mastery Vers and a decent crit chance you can execute for incredibly high amounts of damage to help that end fight dps chart!
