Ret Paladin SSC Solo - The Lurker Below

This one took me a few different methods and attempts to get down. I remembered Lurker hitting fairly hard back in TBC, relative to some of the other bosses, so I initially tried it Prot specced. I messed up on positioning though and got blasted really far away a few times. The adds weren't going down very well either, so I tried as Ret.

Lurker hit a fair bit harder (no avoidance), and the first time the adds were still an issue. Eventually I found a good place to stand, as well as being able to dodge the spout that he does and run around him, using Judgement for a speed boost.

During the add phases, I popped wings and HoW to one shot as many of the ranged adds as possible, whilst Divine Storming the melee ones. It was also quicker to chain Exos and Judges on any remaining ranged adds once wings ended, than swim out and back again. This meant that when Lurker resurfaced, I wasn't too far away from my starting position.

The position I chose was in front of a pillar, the closest pillar to the boardwalk around Lurker. This meant that if I got knocked back, I couldn't get knocked further than in the water just next to where I could directly jump back on and carry on the dps.

Probably the most attempts so far on something I've actually managed to get down. Glad I won't have to be doing it again either as it is a fairly long fight!!
