LearntoRaid's Lady Sinestra Strategy Guide (Heroic)

[DopeTakular]

FUCK YES PRETTY LIGHTS

[tvraider411]

My server hasn't even downed this yet, i understand why.

[mderr86]

what add-ons are they? i have fortexorcist but those look more streamline and looks like it shows all debuffs on boss

[Hoogaas]

Do we have to do all bosses on HC for Sinestra?



[ThomasGhs]

@Hoogaas no, only cho'gal

[ReToRoUs]

thats a BIG ASS fucken screen xD

[kev1n12]

Wrackcity

[nekgt]

thumps up if you think Kinaestehsia is the bEST!

[aetherflux121]

One of the highest quality guides I have ever seen. Thanks.

[nekgt]

the soundtrack name? song?

[i5aac92]

I watch this guide just for the soundtrack

[brendonian]

This fight looks insane...I want to do it.

[devestation512]

Judging by the scars on her body Deathwing must like it rough

[crazydudeo00]

what is a non kick like mechanic hes talking about? like a warriors charge/intervene?

[YoSoyJesus]

All i heard in this whole guide was "I'm not fucking doing this shit until mists comes out"

[darthruneis]

wow, Kina sounds really different in this video compared to more current ones. He sounds... tired.

[SuperGluben]

What's the addon he uses to change the appearance/skin from Healing Rain and Holy Word: Sanctuary etc?

[QueenRaeni]

@SuperGluben It's not an addon, this is what the abilities looked like prior to 4.2... :)

[SuperGluben]

@QueenRaeni Is there anyway to get them back looking that way? Any addons or so? :o

[QueenRaeni]

@SuperGluben The only way would be to modify your mpq files, but that's a ban-able offense and warden will pick you up for it pretty quickly. Id not bother.

[dkozel]

ABILUHTEEZ

[Greenking933]

guys

OrBzZ!!~

[pieceofcake8]

thanks for this guide, we're hoping to get Sinestra down before 4.3, but this looks really tough even with our firelands gear, I must say.

[massivemmafan]

your voice makes me want to hit you...

[dvdavespeler]

@massivemmafan I agree, I know he means well to help others but man.. Don't try to lower your voice to sound cooler and take out your retainers when making a vid like this haha XD

[Weeklycap]

@dvdavespeler It's not his voice, it's his accent. I dont see anything wrong with it, sounds kinda funny :P

[MrExiledBliss]

@dvdavespeler You realize he's and adult?



[darkmoore1337]

@dvdavespeler Thats how he sounds idiot.

[Fliponovic]

But the real question is, will it blend?

[Proz428]

@Fliponovic Im sure sinestra would blend just nicely.

[crazydudeo00]

@Proz428 If you look carefully, looks like someone already tried. (the gashes/cuts on her/him.)

[TheHidingLegends]

The song is by pretty lights, it's the remix to the pretty lights song "Finally Moving", remixed by Pretty lights! If you haven't listened to them yet and are looking for a new artist to get into you should start listening to him now.  /watch?v=U4ceVJjsBh8

[vrethedon]

I love how you play Pretty Lights in your guides. Props

[farhanavicenna]

can someone plz tell me which pretty lights song is he playing in the background?

[bullzdawguk]

Why do you play music in the background? It's very annoying and far too loud. IMO you don't need music at all. No offense, but I want strats not an MTV video.

[spindler85]

@bullzdawguk Music is good, so fuck off.

[bullzdawguk]

@spindler85 I like the song itself. Normally music in the background doesn't bother me on strat clips. But if it is louder than the person talking it kind of defeats the purpose of the clip, so fuck off.

[Kimble71]

I use Vuhdo and that has a timer on it for wrack - VERY useful

[dreamologydept]

that dirty bitch has fairly been pumped

[BishinessRunescape]

"phase 3 is identical to phase 1 with 2 very important differences" so it's not like phase 1? XD

[BipolarPuffin]

Aww i though wrack only was ging to tick for 100 then stack :(

[zetsutobi]

does anyone else think sinestra looks like maleficent (sleeping beauty) in her dragon form?

[tysepicz]

Hey This fight is like are last heroic boss beside Al'Akir and i was just wondering how much dps should everyone be pulling cause its really messings us up cause i dont wanna start Firelands untill we down 13/13 cause knowing we can do 13/13 means we could easily down 7/7 Reg and atleast 4/7H

[xxpiepiepiexx]

@tysepicz

Start FL. If you can do 11/13 H you'll be absolutely fine in FL

[anthonyww713]

define good dps 20K?

[LOLRSK8R90]

@anthonyww713 20k is pretty average for the easier heroic modes. To even get to Sinestra, DPS should be able to sustain 25k+.

[Newtomovies88]

your voice is magical.

[ScopedPewPew]

The server I'm on, pugs can't even clear BoT after the nerf.. lts sad

[Bynbrooke]

@ScopedPewPew are you on coilfang? lol cuz its the same here..

[ScopedPewPew]

@Bynbrooke Nah Suramar, awful server

[EchoJerichoX]

@ScopedPewPew Wow, I played on Suramar back in Classic.

[ScopedPewPew]

@EchoJerichoX Please don't come back, it's in a horrible state, it's full of fucking retards... Honestly. There's only like 15 guilds that are higher than 3/7 in FL now, Midnight isn't even on the server anymore.

[EchoJerichoX]

@ScopedPewPew I believe it. I remember Midnight. Where did they move to?

[ScopedPewPew]

@EchoJerichoX No idea where Midnight moved to. But when it comes to PvP, suramar sucks. There's 6 teams on Suramar that are over 2200 rating. When it comes to raiding, suramar sucks. Our #1 guild just disbanded (John Galt) and they were only 2/7 HM...

I'm seeing pugs on some servers kill sinestra, galt struggled with her...

Raiding seems like its less skill now and more how much time you can devote to the game, I swear any moneky can do the raids, its hard to play 5 nights a week though >.>

[EricThe82]

@ScopedPewPew So you have downed all content? People like you must live sad lives...

[Kentuckyfriedasian2]

@EricThe82

Not sad, but happy.

Killing content while its fresh brings just as much enjoyment as going out with friends... if not more, especially if its a World/EU/US <100th

People like you are the ones who make me laugh.

You can't say shit about anyone else's life style until you've gained some knowledge of it yourself, clearly you haven't.

[acornsmasher]

What addons do you use?

[A1r93]

This is a totally overkill fight.

[A1r93]

My god, what a tough looking fight.

[rustyjiggler]

what should the average dps per player be for this fight?



[DarKNeSSCaLLeD22]

@rustyjiggler

10m or 25m? P1 or P3?

[rustyjiggler]

@DarKNeSSCaLLeD22 10m p1-to kill

[Paradox127]

Ret paladins and priests can't dispel the debuff so..

[DarKNeSSCaLLeD22]

@Paradox127

Priests can, ret pallies cant

[DarKNeSSCaLLeD22]

@DarKNeSSCaLLeD22

EDIT: After 4.2 SPriests cant either actually, my bad

[Paradox127]

@DarKNeSSCaLLeD22 I meant to type spreists, they nerfed that away from shadow priests, it probably wasn't nerfed when this was made.

[MyCelar]

I love your Guides! keep up the awesome work;)

[hypext]

Very helpful, thanks

[tiagolemos]

about that wrack "addon" confusion... well its not an addon but feel free to make one like that, i would dl it for sure.

[tiagolemos]

wow man, im stunned! this guide is amazing, one of(if not) the best out there! my guild is quite far away from killing sinestra but this will help us greatly when that time comes. thank you for this great guide and keep it up! happy raiding

[YoSoyJesus]

If you keep talking about DPS and how important it is, why is your mage frost, the lowest dps spec in the game?

[SheM0ans]

@YoSoyJesus Incorrect. After the 4.1 buffs to Frost, it became one of the highest simming dps specs in the game. It's also great for add control.

[MultiAlphaNerd]

"the bad news = you made it to sinestra" ?

IDD !!!!

[Ladsyadsy]

Her and deathwing got it on....

[2Fat2Daddy]

[Bootyseek18]

abiLities

[crazedxfighter]

sounds like a retard talking 

[judicum]

also, why cant the "unleashed essence" be stoped by stuned or interupted? and how am i spose to do that?

[judicum]

whats this? a pracitcal use for stampeding roar? gold star blizz

[omgoprah]

what would you say is extremely high dps 26-35k

[itsH3ctor]

wow this fight looks so cool/fun but soooo hard at the same time.

[marcotalavera]

5 healers for that much damage fuck that

[YourDeathNoob]

L2r>Tankspot.

[aliexoo]

I like how i get Rebecca Black - Friday as #1 suggestion after this video.

[tiagolemos]

@aliexoo LOL yeah wtf is that about?? lol fuckin whore.

[Kelvinhirst]

I'd LOVE to know how you setup grid2 to show wrack in this way, I've fiddled with it all day but I am struggling. Any words of advice?

[NOxSTICKxTOASTERxvHD]

tankspot doesnt like this...

[magmachiller]

assuming the frames are grid, what addon are you using for wrack ? the one that pops boundries on players and are color coded for duration ? wrack is killing our progress and that addon would help immensely..

[learntoraid]

@magmachiller There is no setting for this, it was edited into the video to help wrack to be understood.

[Flagermus2k]

@magmachiller You can make Grid able to show a green frame around the player aswell as showing the icon in the middle. Its all under Layout, Status and Frame

[Kimble71]

@magmachiller Use Vuhdo - it shows a count down timer on the unit frames

[Kandyz63]

my servers top guild is just about to attempt this lol

[skejter4e]

Alliena and Pappapaint disliked this!

[IntoTheEthos]

Ive been watching your vids since Ulduar, theyre still amazingly helpful and well put together.

[btbrotherton]

Your guides are the best, Pretty Lights ftmfw

[shawaam]

Why mustn't spitecallers be stunned?

And, the actual damage increase sinestra gains in phase three is 66%.

[titojefe330]

I lol at people who say raiding is easy. I always ask them, "Have you downed Sinestra?" and they reply, "Who?"

[makkoffs]

@titojefe330 Individually I too think it's really easy. The only hard thing about pve is group synergy and communication :p

[BusinessIDBAI]

@makkoffs

Show us your main's Armory please, and we'll also come check out your server to see what achievements you've gotten from PvE content.

[Martyrofthefallen]

@titojefe330: Go to illidan, some pugs kill sinestra lmfao, its pretty amazing,

[bigspook999]

@Martyrofthefallen by pug i assume you mean top tier raiders on their alts that use a calander feature in the game and have a weekly group that runs together...

come to think of it, i don't think you know what pug means.

[ryanakahuss]

@bigspook999 nope, he means that illidan has a lot of good players on it, which it does, and they do have pug groups (of various guilds) downing this content, lol.

some servers have a lot of shit players, and others have a lot of good players, sorry ur on a shit server ;p

[Martyrofthefallen]

@bigspook999 P.U.G. pick up group, and actually it was a group of people who came from guilds that could only kill heroic Cho'gall and they decided that they'd kill H Sinestra without the guild, but it was a pug.

[dessan18]

@titojefe330 my fav is when they just join on the bandwagon when they didn't even play the game:D

[adolphjlj1]

@titojefe330 Raiding is easy. And, i have downed Sinestra.

[ScopedPewPew]

@titojefe330 As blizzard put it "Normal modes are for casual players, hardmodes are for hardcore players" so anyone who says raiding is easy is probably casual and has only killed 8/12 in the old tier and they're 1/7 right now... Lol.

[KforKaspur]

I need help please, I want your grid settings so I can dispel wrack as well as y'all can

[gloimxenu]

@KforKaspur

you can modify ur grid with custom debuffs, just type in the name of the debuff and grid will show it

[xtremecyraxs]

Great video, and gratz!

What's the name of the song in the background?

[Retpaladinownage]

What's the exact name of the song? And is it a remix? Couldn't find it anywhere!

[Yatta27]

@Retpaladinownage Pretty Lights - Finally Moving remix

Google Pretty Lights, he has all his albums available on his website for free

[Retpaladinownage]

@Yatta27 Cheers! and keep doing what you are doing with these movies, they are great.

[R1suke]

beats the hell out of tankspot

[WoWGabe85]

"Hey, im a random scrub on youtube who insults players that are officers in guilds that are 6th in the world..."

[pustime1234]

your voice sux more than your UI

[Falita123]

@pustime1234 Kina > You... that simple.

[DeathFlavored]

Thanks for posting this, you're probably gonna save my life tomorrow night! ;]

[tore650]

should so be a 40main this one O.o, not looking forward to do it 10man >,<

[tore650]

should so be a 40main this one O.o

[1sniper1wolf1]

No one EVER dies in Vodka raids. Its fucking amazing.

[TheAfflictid]

He said that the fight is extremely dps reliant, so if there isn't healing to be done, why does it matter if he was smiting? Also, because of her positioning, even atonement specced priests won't be able to heal with smite as she is too far away.

[LiquidSunXx]

And he couldv been speced into angelism

[LiquidSunXx]

Oh my bad just thought he was disc haha come on be nice bro its a game

[Stufflikeheartz]

Kil'jaeden called. He wants his model back.

[Priestofdoom]

This fight is faceroll on 25

[TheAfflictid]

@Priestofdoom

Honestly, there's one fight that ISN'T faceroll on 25man. Hoping for better balance in Firelands as I'm in a 10man guild. Having to two heal this boss is ridiculous.

[Priestofdoom]

@TheAfflictid ye same I am one of the 2 healers in my 10 man guild doing this fight. Maybe Firelands will be more balanced (doubtful) but it is cool having such a hard encounter in 10 man you can just lol at all the 25 man scrubs that think they are pro. We are reluctant to even trial someone that comes from raiding 25 man heroics.

[TheAfflictid]

@Priestofdoom

Yea, we are first on our server ranking wise. But a 25 man that has just switched to 10mans is threatening our position. Kind of dumb that 25mans can switch to 10 for the one or two fights easier on 10 and think they're the same.

[Priestofdoom]

@TheAfflictid lol! the same thing is happening on our server! though we aren't top overall. 25 man guilds do easy stuff on 25 then go 10 man for Alakir and AC for 1 off kills cos there bad, enjoy your loot but you suck rly

[daraghfaceroll]

He sounds like Randy Marsh (Stan's dad) from Southpark sometimes.

[bellylou1987]

1. Why are you smiting as holy priest?

2. 2 holy priests and no lightwell?

[LiquidSunXx]

@bellylou1987 Smite heals targets when you are specs into it as discipline

lightwell i dont know how to answer that but maybe just forgot

[bellylou1987]

@LiquidSunXx It is a holy priest, therefore smiting does not heal...Unless that part of the video was recorded when he was in disc spec...

[MrWow1wow]

sick boss fight :P thanks alot

[Nikomito45]

can someone tell me please how can i get the achievement frame aspect as there is on this video at min 00:28. i like that skin. thanks

[Stoopiddrood]

Please use someone with a better voice next time. I really couldn't stand this one.

[spree2009]

@Stoopiddrood

Video was very understandable

Thumbs up! Ignore stoopiddrood is stupid afterall ! PEACE

[Northover22x]

a few questions for anyone who wants to answer,

he says if the adds die in another adds twilight pool or w.e its called, they respawn, then how do they get aoe'd down? :S

can wrack be bubbled/ice blocked but still remain on the player, like the debuff from putricide, and can you just sacrifice the first person to get it to completely void it or does it still act like it was dispelled and jump to 2 people

[Pyretix]

Also, why shouldn't you stun or interrupt the spitecallers? Are they immune to them or is there some consequence to do so?

[Pyretix]

I haven't played my paladin since cataclysm came out, and I'm prot anyway, but I didn't think retribution paladins could dispel magic anymore?

FWIW, soon shadow priests won't be able to dispel magic on others either.

[dnangel999]

hello learntoraid,

Just curious, what's the name of the song in the background, i like the track very much

[SouzaKid]

@dnangel999 Pretty Lights - Finally Moving

[SeveredTiesGuild]

The math sounds wrong here... Starts with 77M and in P2 has 129M for a total of 206M? But you don't DPS her to 0 in P1 so that would be wrong?

[Perrove]

really nice video and explanation.

[Katten1h]

Woah, I am happy I aint there yet. Too much information to remember after seeing this one time :p

[Baneheart666]

Now this, this is a guide :)

[Metrowow]

Whats the name of the Unit frames your using? :)

[Kyrillix]

@Metrowow The unit frames or actual raid frames? If the former, I believe it's Pitbull (or X-Perl, not quite sure). The latter would be Grid.

As to the guild, nice kill and excellent strategy/guide.

[Chrisfilosa]

There was an error in the video - Ret Paladin's cannot dispel wrack and soon enough Shadow Priests won't be able to either. This will be a job for healers only. Sorry for any confusion.

-Killars

Co-founder Learntoraid

[messi996]

just wondering how many trys did this take to down?

[proarlopro]

all is say is :OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[brollyyy]

Sinestra isn't really hard tbh, even tho my guild used 5 progress days on her the fight was kinda Straightforward, at least we made some progress after every night. Ascendant Council heroic prior the nerfs felt a lot moer painful because it was so unforgiving and you really needed skill todo it, (and some luck)wiping 3 times in one night at under 1% is not nice, now blizzard nerfed it to death and you can pretty much faceroll it down once you reach phase 3 with all ppl and with boss at 25% :(

[MuraliPatel]

General Feedback, Ret Pallies can't dispel magic. Assuming that the WoWHead spellid is correct, Wrack (SpellID 92955) is a magical debuff, so it'd have to be a different DPS class with a Magic Dispel to handle wrack.

Sacred Cleansing requires 16 points in the Holy Tree to have.

[Animechannel29able]

LIKE A BOSS!

[Nabolzi]

Im sure you put a lot of work into these guides and this 1 in particular, but theres wayyy tooo much information at 1 time + text, and the fact that you keep repeating yourself makes it worse... keep it simple

[PaulErly]

@Nabolzi Yeah...or pause the video.

[Hannahcarbons]

What's the song you play in the background?

[Leeroi132]

@Hannahcarbons it's a remix of the song finally moving by the artist pretty lights

[cyberplumber10]

So what guild is this again? and is it EU or US? cus i'm tired of all the fail guilds on US lol :p the few that do 13/13 heroic already have their 25 man's stacked, and really don't recruit anymore.

[Ryusola]

@cyberplumber10

Pretty certain this is Vodka (US)

[Optec]

Superb quality, I make raid guides and these put me utterly to shame. If only I had the time to edit to this quality :). Fantastic job, do not stop :p.

[booduh117]

M'uru pre-nerf, Kil'jaeden pre-nerf what?

[hickyfuck]

@booduh117 except that KJ's mechancis were simple -.- Just cause the numbers are balanced on a knife point doesn't mean the fight iteslf is difficult. The mechanics are basic. "don't stand in stuff, move to the shield, move to the breath" KJ summed up in less than a sentence.

[MRG325]

Wow... i wonder what death wings going to be like

[frijamabob1]

These guys are so good, its a dps check fight and they do it with 3 frost mages.. well done sir

[frijamabob1]

TANKSPOT is shit... no pve guides anymore.. just that curly haired idiot talking about topics that noobs care about. good job learntoraid.

[hickyfuck]

@frijamabob1 there's a guide on every fight but siniestra -.-

[kantutu]

I'm pretty sure yogg 0 is one of the hardest encounters this game has seen :p

[MrTaunus666]

@kantutu Obviously you never attempt C'thun pre nerf

@MrTaunus666 cthun pre nerf was unkillable, that dosnt make it ha
