Great job taking down Thorngrin guys. He's not an easy fight.
Last time I was in there, our healer kept getting sacrificed, and without off-heals, we eventually wiped and then just skiped him out of fustration.
Final boss is never a problem, so I'm looking forward to seing you guys chop him down.

wow guys great episode. i was waiting when you will talk about DPS and CC. great job killing boss. he is nastiest boss in that instance and you have done it! congratualations and good luck killing last boss
all these episodes are awesome, i learn a lot watching them. just wondering tho, how do u make a macro that misdirects the tank and shoot the target at the same time?
Great job guys, gotta say, this boss isn't a walk in the park, it out an off healer like a shaman or a paladin you i'll get wiped for sure, i also noticed that he never but NEVER sacrifices is target, so unless your tank drops agrro he will never be sacrifice, also he only sacrifices the player who are in tgere LOS, so for example ur healer was behind a wall he will not get sacrificed at all...also the best way to get out of sacrifice is too have lots of shadow proc but it out a priest or a pala, its kind hard too resist his sacrifice...and the best way too hide your healer is to, place the tank in the middle of the room, and put the healer behind the boxes to the left of Thorngrin's starting position, the healer should be able to see the tank, but will not be in LoS of the boss, hope this helps(i knwo its kinda of late now)
Good job on him guys, he's a toughy. Last time I was in the, Fire mage didn't understand not to DPS during Hellfire, and we wiped twice. If you can do this guy, the last 2 are a cakewalk.
As a tank, I know this boss is a damn hard keep aggro on, so nicely done!

Jus wanted to let Dr. Dark kno that sap is being buffed in Wotlk to allow pretty much anything that has a skull.
A demon paladin?
A contradiction in terms?
Great stuff though :D
For those Hunters looking for Macros out there:

Also links to other classes useful macros, eg. Mages for Sheep, Priest for Shackle, Druid Cyclone, etc.
Not bad, only thing I'd say on that guy is just have the tank stay in through the hellfire, thats what we usually do, your gear seems good enough to do it(on both tank and healer) and you're not risking ranged DPS going above you in threat and pulling aggro. That or everyone stop DPS during hellfire which makes the fight take alot longer. Good episode though.
i have killed this guy a time or two(or ALOT more xD) adn the best stategy i have been using far is to give peaople opsistions the tank against the wall in the other side of the room and the healer approximately where the boss is before the fight starts tank STAYS IN THE FIRE.
i absolutely love these episodes and i cant wait till i hear what you have to say about warlocks

The change that you talked about where the paladins sheild throw skipped all the CC was removed :(
Hey guys! Great job with all the work and effort you put into PL. good on yah! Just wanted to give you a tip about this guy (and i think i saw something about it in another post...), everytime i've fought this guy, the tank just stays at his feet and takes the Hellfire. Because of his multiple aggro resets and almost constant Hellfire spams, its best to just let the tank take it and heal like mad. Great work though guys! Keep it up!
