Thok Cooldown Rotation

Thok positioning (courtesy of FlaskUp)

Its been a while folks, but never fear I am still here! Or maybe that should be a reason to be fearful? Anyway, been doing some HC progression and needing to buff up the knowledge on Thok, Man the coordination there is intense, so I've been researching a bit deeper and the raid cooldown usage is indeed the key. 

This is NOT  JUST HEALERS, everyone who can assist should assist and so we don't all splurge our CDs at the start we need an action plan. Because the team make up varies week to week I have put together the action plan below which states roles not classes. Some weeks we'll have extra CDs to use, in which case people not specifically assigned should use theirs at a point that isn't mentioned, prefarably near the end.

The rotation below is for the 1st and 3rd Cry in the Darkness phases. The 2nd of these phases will see the raid have no raid wide cooldowns available, kill the bats and last as long as we naturally can with an aim of hitting 7-10 Screeches.

• Screech #06 – DPS 1 Raid Cooldown
• Screech #09 – DPS 3 Raid Cooldown (if available)
• Screech #11 – Healer 1 with a Blessing of Protection so no interupts
• Screech #14 – Healer 2 with Blessing of Protection  so no interupts
• Screech #17 – DPS 2 Raid Cooldown
• Screech #19 – Devotion Aura
• Screech #22 – Healer 3 Cooldowns and players personal Cooldowns.
• Screech #24 – DPS 4 Raid Cooldown (if available)
• Screech #27 – Stack up!
