Cataclysm - Baleroc : Firelands Boss Strategy Guide

[deaddyish]

You should make a channel for your EPIC guides

[EdilarinProducts]

please Ragnaros guide.

[EdilarinProducts]

didn't really understand, what am I as a melee dps supposed to do? stand behind him and dps? and stand by crystals? please tell me

[thomo234]

Watching through this again.. WTF is your mage doing?!

[Wurstlol]

@thomo234 he uses arcane barrage....lol

i bet that retards like him wield dragonwrath

[dvinb12345]

@Wurstlol If Arcane Missiles hasn't procced and you need to reset your Arcane Blast stacks, what else are you going to use?

[Wurstlol]

@dvinb12345 arcane blast..nothing else until im out of mana

after that i hit my evocation and use ABx2 -> AM

and the missile procc is very reliable that i can launch my missiles after a 2nd blast

and that mage in the game was like Arcane Blast x 4 -> Arcane Missiles -> Arcane Barrage

it's not like in wotlk..the missiles do not benefit from the AB stacks anymore...unfortunately

[Bunuko]

Totems. Totems everywhere...

[MonsterbabyVashj]

Tankspot sounds like the commentaries have been done by Zombies. I like when commentary is a bit alive.

[MrTitomanias]

@MonsterbabyVashj zombies they arent zombies or human or demons they are... NOTHING! here its cool! the music the voice etc

[JCC69casey9494]

your guides are far better than tankspot. Blizz should employ you for guides

[doommoon123]

you are so noob you even can't get talent on shaman lol

[catman27doo]

you need to make a rag guide

[DeathNimrod]

OMFG FFVIII MUSIC!!!!!

[wowftwz]

was ur tank using lava spine?

[seanmj1washere]

The Baleroc, his power is beyond any of you.. RRUUN!!

[Mtburnn]

@TheHiznor

Ok ty, we changed a few things in our group so we might be able to kill him before the berserk timer. Ty for your tip :)

[Rogueixpresents]

perfect mana managing how u do that? my shaman ooms fast. how?

[NemoNemuNeme]

@Rogueixpresents maybe look at your spells. some cost an enormous amount of mana.

[Rogueixpresents]

@NemoNemuNeme Well i use healing wave and greater healing when target it's low health as 25-45% if it's 45-55% i do ONCE greater healing wave and riptide and spam healing wave chain heal as well. If target it's like 10 or 5 % HP I cast healing surge once or twice if needed and >>>

[Rogueixpresents]

@NemoNemuNeme >>> i spam healing wave with riptide on the lowest target.. my Spirit is 2.2k with buffs it's 2.6k... 5k mana regen with set Tier 11 bonuses, and3+k while in combat.. BUT My healing is low on recount to comparing with other shamans.

[NemoNemuNeme]

@Rogueixpresents maybe it haas something to do with that shammy's are a bit weak atm compared to priest and paladins. our mainheals just heal a lot less in comparison.

Maybe that has something to do with our mastery Deep healing(as you know people with less health get stronger heals from us) so maybe blizz wants us to flasheal. but as far as mana i never have any problems. Core of ripeness is awesome for more spirit.

[Rogueixpresents]

@NemoNemuNeme in wotlk i liked shaman healing.. not it's bad.. btw thanks for the info about mastery.. gotta try that :/ Or i'll go as priest or druid heals :/

[NemoNemuNeme]

@Rogueixpresents I like shaman healing in raids. with groups it's a bit more annoying because of the lack of good aoe heals. Healing rain is great but not when people are everywhere;p.

But i have a friend who is a druid healer. And druid healing is awesome;p they are really great in groups;p.

With wild growth tranguility and swiftmend+efflorensce. that and the tree dances awesomexd

[Rogueixpresents]

@NemoNemuNeme I dislike the HOTs i find them as unfair and cheating way. I mean for 10 man u apply lifebloom and stuff but shamans have healing aoe totem and healing rain :o + riptide ..

[NemoNemuNeme]

@Rogueixpresents the hots are just a totally different way of healing. they do however are a bit weak in flash healing. unlike shamans who are flashhealers(healing the instant a enemy has low life).

[Mtburnn]

I have one question, we managed to kill Baleroc but he always hits his berserk timer. So a few people always die, and the others have to nuke him like crazy. We have about 110k raid dps in total. How much total raid dps would you need to kill him before his berserk timer? We do it 10m normal

[Zachattack172]

@Mtburnn Might just need more deeps, 10 man is harder than 25 man I believe

[TheHiznor]

@Mtburnn

With a 5:58 (2 sec before berserk) kill we did 117k. So I would guess around that number.

[Greatmanwich]

A Wild DPS Appears!

[OperationFlik]

isnt the song called "Force your way"? why is there "Thousand Suns" in the description? =P

[HexenX]

@OperationFlik There are two songs in the description.

[JulioJLuna89]

i love your videos man, but your voice sounds like your narrating pokemon xD

[crzybananas4life]

luv ur vids can you make a dk guide

[Crizz70]

This this the last Firelands Raid boss strat guide you uploaded? Can't find the birdy or Ragnaros.

[OperationFlik]

@Crizz70 he uploaded the alysrazor guide very recently, check his channel 

[crzybananas4life]

luv ur vids plz make a zul aman guide



[SquallGF]

Nice vid man.

I love the fact I can reduce the dmg from DBlades with Anti-Magic Shell xD

Btw...FF8 ftw (just saying x> )

[organoidmofo]

would you suggest 2 tanks for this in 10man?

[Lulaikki]

New video plss

[hygdreyer]

omg that music

[XDraco93]

Decimation Blade can be dodged!

[kyungdaesung]

hahahaah ff8 boss music

[LOSTKILLERDRAENEI]

Where do you get the epic music? :D

[doobieeful]

love the way you make your boss vid/guides  --- Sent From OMFGCata's AppRats (Facebook App)!

[3nfy]

Jesse were you in WRFF before ONE?

[Blackhammer99]

@3nfy No lol he wasn't.

I recruited him to the server a while back.

<-- metro btw

[Br4nd0nPlaysWoW]

@3nfy

[samstpaallt]

Loving your choice of music as always, The Black Mages ftw!

[gheith001]

WHO THE FUCK IS BALROG!?

[lindaron93]

@gheith001 *facepalm* have you never seen LotR?

[gheith001]

@lindaron93 *pulls palm off your face* I did, but I don't remember every frickin thing about. All I remember are awesome fight scenes, legalos, and a game.

[lindaron93]

@gheith001 It's the whole YOU SHALL NOT PAAAAAAAAAAAASS. scene with Gandalf

[MMOTotal]

@gheith001 who here has never watched Lord of The Rings ? - seriously...

[Billywask]

@gheith001 Its a nickname for creatures in J.R.R Tolkien universe that are fallen Maiar. You see one in the first LOTR movie during the Moria sequence.

[WTF1SJuiCE]

Necrosaro + Bat wing ears at the beginning?  Nice!!

[TheGrenfar]

Final fantasy :D

[Larreyftw]

I'd like that intro music (the retro sounding one) as my ringtone.... :(

[animagrin]

Even though i quit wow, i still like watchin these.

[TeamJayOnas]

You stole my dynasty warriors music idea O: Lol epic

[Almgand1]

Yes! Estark sprite

[TetrisStarcraft2]

Your Arcane mage is using arcane missles to much

[megatwinkwow]

@TetrisStarcraft2 maybe thats because he is trying to conserve mana for the 133mil health that baleroc has?

plus, also you don't know how many mages there really are...

[sgtsaldl]

lol i now that he dead like that and i have never sen this fight or hes death before

[firechick234]

What? -.- lol

[Devilsolution]

Nice Final Fantasy boss song at the end. This boss is very easy!

[ajpfore]

good comunication and rotation and this is the easiest boss in firelands :)

[Dyetru3]

isn't cataclysm supposed to have made healers have to use their mana responsibly? cuz... I'm not seeing your mana drop under like 95% during the entire fight o_o

[Xlsy221]

@Dyetru3 that's because he is using it very responsible ^^

[evilldd]

@Dyetru3 Yes, and they probably have some Heroic Tier 11 gear. My guild, that has cleared Tier 11 normal, attempted this boss, and our healers were having some mana problems.

[Bazeleel]

@Dyetru3 Shamans still have some of the best mana regen int he game lol Thats why

[GuyFromSlovenia]

my wow just got hecked and i was 84 T.T

[Leeroi132]

Grats!

nice axe drops :D

[alchemyrox]

you sound tired jesse!!!!!!! take a nap so we can have energetic jesse back!!!

[KingWyn]

Why the fuck am I watching this? I really need to go outside...

[HugeGamePlay]

im gonna stick to cod

[matataka]

Why is their tank like 50 times bigger than everyone else?

[devilkapper]

@matataka he wants the person taking him on to match his strength (blaze of glory stacks)

[Ingyarr]

Heal with greater healing wave (high mana cost ability) when the boss is really low... you are not likely to run out of mana anyways when he is low

[Snarkyscotsman]

WoW dubstep :) /watch?v=bXt5k1zuo_0&feature=r­elmfu

[gaberoid]

any1 else have a different video player looking thingy? xD

[Jappolah]

use some final fantasy 7 music next time kthanks :D

[Aethercat]

NOO I DISLIKED IT DAMN!!!!!!!!!!

[conker841]

YEAH Final Fantasy 8 Music

[SilenceDHeu]

"First kill" Um, i see a cow with a baleroc shield =<

[OMFGcata]

@SilenceDHeu they did it in 10 man the week before :P

[TheTeysa]

@SilenceDHeu maybe he meant first 25man kill

[Mrobs15]

@SilenceDHeu Could be the first 25m kill.

[Tehblood]

attack speed isnt slowed during decimation blade on 25 man.

[AnyRoad2]

I stopped playing WoW a while ago, but I still watch these videos for the awesome Dynasty Warriors music. XD

[thisisntsfunnys]

I think you should post an annotation for dps, heals, and tanks, so many who don't understand more than one role can actually know whats going on. Also between heroics and 25-man to 10-man.

Trying to make it easy on my guildies.

[fasaliks]

Still amazed by how little mana u lose when ur healing :o when im healing on my shaman im oom in like 3 mins or so ;o Whats ur secret!

[SlayerDragon98]

really you pixelated a wang on that dude

[P4TTL1]

does this boss really deserve a guide? i mean my guild got it to 10% on the first try and only failed coz a healer dc'd

this is more of a mob than a boss imo and no guide should ever be needed.

[CharmedBalthazar]

THE DARK FIRES WILL NOT AVAIL YOU, FLAME OF UDUN!... YOU SHALL NOT PASS!

[omglollinn]

like for th final fantasy music

[coolair00]

Another stupid gimmick boss fight. When does this game get fun again?

[andromidius]

I'm still confused by the mechanics. Doh.

[JurreTong]

New bar looks like Pornhub!

[tonosw0rld]

Your interface is the best (and normal) of all WoW videos!

[ThePurpleBunnie]

Jesse that thumbnail or whatever says "The tank will increase IS size" Supposed to be Its* :P Great guide btw!

[CrocodileFlashlight]

i dontplay world of warcraft so the whole video i was like uhhhhhhh what?

[MisterCrim]

@CrocodileFlashlight Which begs the question: Why would you watch it to begin with?

[OperationFlik]

@CrocodileFlashlight pointless comment is pointless

[The1337Games]

you can 1 tank it easily

[Djum3n]

Decimation blade can be parried and dodged.

[sangrealnotreal]

I just downed this fucker, took us 2 weeks , but we are not a hardcore guild.

[KingDenson]

is it me or is jesses guild getting through this contact abit quickly

[MisterCrim]

@KingDenson Considering some no name guild from Europe downed all that shit on day one and then tried to cheat its way into same week heroics, I'm gonna have to say that it isn't difficult. Hell, in his Beth'tilac video he couldn't even get a nice kill segment because they literally downed her on the second try.

[Fraaazzzaaah]

Youtube is black O_o

[HarryTHELondal]

Our 10 man group had all 5 dps rotation between crystals taking 8-10 stacks each but idk if this fight is abit bugged or not cause the stacks didn't seem to go up evenly and we managed to kill him 3 seconds before enrage time despite the fact 3 of us were doing 22k constant dps with 30k+ at the start with cd's and the other 2 dps doing 16-19k

[skeletenkid]

thanks to this video i completed this boss on first attempt, thanks a lot! :D

[MangaFan629]

yay.. i`m in the top 210 comments....

[TankingVideos]

@MangaFan629 not anymore

[cyborg98]

I love the sprite for this one, it's hardly different fromw hen it's mirrored, haha.

[azdor87]

ff8 music ftw <3

[azdor87]

ff8 boss music <3 <3

[AQWThatWeirdNoob]

I'm playing an MMO and they made 2 dungeons harder than they were before. o.o

Bosses kill you in 2 hits with an AOE and have a DoT of 1k ever second for 30 seconds. o.o

Total Bs, but at least WoW doesn't have this. :D..or does it?

[mike250290]

Not loosing ana mana... lol

[RuttorBlacksand]

Needs more totem airstrips

[Spectrallink]

Going dooooooooooooown, in a BlAZE OF GLOREH!

[MrDissease]

Jesse what do you say, we got Shannox,Beth'ilac and Lord Ryolith, which boss should we try first Baleroc or phoenix boss?

[wwemikoy123]

wow they rly tok from lord of the rings:P

[cheezitzrcool]

Fuck WoW, Hows that swtor beta jesse?

[RonaldMcTroll]

Looks like Balrog. Which leads me to say....YOU SHALL NOT PASS!

[PapayaJohn]

@RonaldMcTroll Run you fools...

[jakisemo]

@RonaldMcTroll He is even the Gate Watcher. o.0

[cloud50006]

@RonaldMcTroll Yeah not a very original boss is it? =P

[joachimvanhulle]

@RonaldMcTroll Play Lotro :)

[plasmaneon]

Just thought i would tell you that u can dodge Decimation blades.. Happens all the time in our raid and we even time tank trinkets to abuse it.

[Biggiejxxl]

Jesse you are a bit late, Our guild got 7/7 first week and now working on heroic kills :S

[KarmaDeath117]

Jesse, what class are you?

[erogone]

@KarmaDeath117 shamen



[TheDGKNaxx]

@KarmaDeath117 lmao are you dumb you cant see what he is casting nor the spells on the bottem..... shaman

[KarmaDeath117]

@TheDGKNaxx Oh im sorry im kinda new to the game, this is the first of his vids so i was just curious. Im so sorry for asking a question :( how can i make it up to you for wasting your valuable time with my stupid question?

[KarmaDeath117]

Lol sorry the first of his vids that ive seen

[Huntardify]

holy shit, 133mill hp??!!!

[TAToutik]

First Time i saw this boss, it reminded me of Reboot. The "user" that "kills" Enzo and starts the whole Grown-up Enzo series, going into the web and all... man I'm old :/

[norvelled]

I think my problem recently with WoW is that bosses aren't made to be difficult in their own area. They are impossible without some buff or mechanic the boss itself gives you. I know these fights aren't super easy, but why are bosses giving us the means to defeat them? I just don't like that. Make them difficult, but make us use our own abilities to get the job done, not some mechanic the boss hands out.

[BlueBlaze20]

@norvelled So you don't like to think and make strategies ? You would like every boss to be a tank and spank? This is my problem with wow players, they hate working for their gear, I am sure gear will be available in the blizzard store soon...just you watch.

[norvelled]

@BlueBlaze20

Did I ever say I wanted it easy? No. I do want tough fights, but why should the key to victory be given to me by the very creature I am trying to defeat? Companies need to be more creative. Fights like these? Not terribly creative and it feels more like a choreographed dance than an actual FIGHT. Don't project your anger and prejudice on me for you not reading my comment and taking your own judgements to the fore so you can rant.

[BlueBlaze20]

@norvelled I agree with you, I might have mistaken what you said for making fights easier and I apologize. I just noticed that wow have become more about getting gear than actually enjoying the game. It's more about the rewards and not about having fun anymore. It just very irritating to see people who just want the gear, but not willing to work for it.

[Dranoon]

Lol FF8 Boss Battle Remix, Very Naize~

[FiddlingClaws]

This boss is based on the Balrog, Gatekeeper.. Giant demon thing with horns and wings.. Baleroc-Balrog, name difference?

[MrWarLore]

litle question, i saw that he was using grid, but isn't it true grid has no hotkey spells options? how can he then use it as a healing addon?

[Dekamerx]

@MrWarLore moveover macros?

[MrTaylork1]

@MrWarLore you have to get clique to go with it. they're meant to be used together. you can figure clique by going to your spell book and another tab will be there. you click the tab and then click your spells with whatever click you want to assign it. so if you shift click on healing wave, you can then shift click on grid and it will cast healing wave.

[TheOverlordPlayer]

youtube is full of retards who thumb up the most stupid comments up most of the time, whether spam posts or obvious shit.......

[jopieslim1]

@ first 2 comments...

ITS N AMED BALEROC!!! OFCOURSE IT LOOKS LIKE A BALROG!

[nelishoofd]

@jopieslim1 it could have looked like cross between a bale of hay and a rock.

[jopieslim1]

@nelishoofd Touché!

[WoWfreak15]

anyone else astounded by blizzard's lack of creativity?

[krachtbalmale]

@WoWfreak15 Lol whut? Have you seen the other bosses? Only this boss is just abit meh.

[Ghostkiller5555]

i just smilled at the shaman name .. "Youbetrolling"

[redreav3r]
