This video was made by Sÿriane on french Kirin Tor to help healers heal through the heroic Maexxna fight.
Maexxna has over 6750k health. Throughout the fight she will do several things:
- Web Wrap (20 seconds after engaging then every 40 seconds) will encase 2 players in a cocoon on the west wall, dealing ~2k8dmg/2s. Ranged DPS must destroy the cocoon.
- Spider Spawning (30 seconds after engaging then every 40 seconds) will spawn around ten adds under Maexxna. These have less than 10k HP, and can easily be dealt with AoE. This must be done fast as they can apply Necrotic Poison, which reduces healing received by 90%, and 10 seconds after...
- ... Web Spray will stun everybody for 6 seconds (and deal a small amount of damage). Maexxna and remaining spiderlings will carry on hitting people. Right before the stun occurs, healers must ensure the tank is backed up with all possible HoTs.
- Poison Shock deals ~5k dmg in a frontal cone -- Maexxna should be tanked facing away from the rest of the raid.
- Frenzy (occurs at 30% of Maexxna's health) will cause Maexxna to deal 75% more damage and attack 50% faster. At this point, Web Spray is extremely dangerous, as Maexxna is able to kill the tank within 6 seconds. The fight becomes a DPS race: finish her before she finishes you.
Enjoy ;)

I play holy. Having always done PvE as a holy priest (since vanilla), I am used to this spec, and I still believe it is the one that should be used by all priests =)

When the tank doesn't take too much damage, I have spare time so I can help with killing the boss. I just need to max out his HP after the Web spray and Renew.
However during enrage phase (30% boss HP), I will have to be alert at all times as Maexxna can dish out some pretty nasty damage -- especially after the Web spray.
