Koralon the Flame Watcher Boss Strategy Guide

Koralon the Flame Watcher boss strategy guide is a new boss you’ll start to see in early to mid September, when Season 7 stats.  Koralon the Flame Watcher will be found in the Vault of Archavon in Wintergrasp Keep.

This boss strategy guide will show you how to beat Koralon the Flame Watcher on your first time without a group wipe.  When you know what to expect ahead of time, figuring out your boss strategy is simple.

Only the faction which controls Wintergrasp Fortress will be able to access Koralon the Flame Watcher.  The boss de-spawns 10 minutes before every Wintergrasp battle and drops tier 9 and Season 7 items.  Koralon the Flame Watcher also has a chance to drop an epic mount: the Grand Black War Mammoth.

Koralon the Flame Watcher Abilities

Koralon the Flame Watcher has five abilities you’ll need to understand in order to set your strategy up ahead of time.  Meteor Fists is a self-buff, which during the 25-man raid causes all of his attacks to be split evenly among your entire party.  This means your healers have got to be on their toes and have a system set up ahead of time.  Everyone is going to be taking damage at the same time, so your healers must know exactly which group members they’re in charge of keeping alive.

Koralon the Flame Watcher Boss Strategy Guide: Phase One

The first thing Koralon the Flame Watcher starts to do when the boss fight starts is stack Burning Fury.  This power increases damage dealt by 5 percent during a 25-man raid.  Burning Fury stacks every 20 seconds, which is important to keep in mind when you’re planning your boss strategy.  Koralon the Flame Watcher opens the fight by casting Burning Breath, which will burn everyone in your party for about 4,000 fire damage every second for 3 seconds at a time in the 25-man raid.  The damage in this phase is about half of that for the 10-man version of the raid.

Koralon the Flame Watcher Boss Strategy Guide: Phase Two

After Burning Breath, Koralon the Flame Watcher moves to Flaming Cinder.  Basically, he tosses out fireballs along the floor and lights the floor on fire.  The strategy for this part of the boss fight is simple: just keep moving, stay out of the fire, and you should be good to go for avoiding damage from this ability.

Koralon the Flame Watcher Boss Strategy Guide: Phase Three

The last ability in the arsenal of Koralon the Flame Watcher is another version of Meteor Fists.  This is a melee ability which strikes everyone in your party, causing over 100 percent fire weapon damage.

Koralon the Flame Watcher Boss Fight Strategy: Recap

The 25-man raid for Koralon the Flame Watcher is a very healing-intensive fight.  This boss deals a lot of damage to all party members.  Some of his attacks cannot be avoided, which means your healer will do most of the work up front, keeping everyone alive so they can deal damage to the boss.

Make sure all your paladins have Fire Resistance Aura up because all the damage dealt by Koralon the Flame Watcher is obviously fire.  Your shamans should use Fire Resistance Totem.

You should be able to take him down with your basic tank and spank fight.  Heal through the fires, move when the floor under you gets lit on fire, and you should be good to go.  For the 10-man version of the Koralon the Flame Watcher raid, you’ll want two tanks, three healers, and five DPS.  Depending on the experience levels of those in your 25-man raid, you’ll be able to adjust your numbers accordingly.
