The first pulse hits for about 200, the last for over 2000. It looks like a warlock doing hellfire. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Ignite Mana (Magic)<\/strong> &#8211; a debuff that is cast on players that will remove 400 mana and 400 life per tick so long as the person with the debuff has mana. This effect is useless on rogues and warriors but must be dispelled on everyone else immediately. It can be dispelled by Paladins or Priests.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Living Bomb <\/strong>&#8211; Any player in the raid can become a living bomb. After 10 seconds, the player will explode taking 3000+ damage, and sending them airborn which will also cause a lot of damage to the player. Anyone in a radius of the explosion will also take 3000+ damage. If you have the bomb you must run towards the outer walls. This allows you to get away from the rest of the raid so you don&#8217;t kill them, and puts a ceiling over your head to minimise the fall damage. If you do not move out of the way, this has the ability to cause a wipe, as you blow up your raid party. You will know you are the bomb by the swirling affect around your body. Alerts will also pop up on your screen in raid and tells. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Positioning &#038; Pull<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The raid forms a big circle around the centre of Garr&#8217;s room, and Baron gets pulled into here.<\/li>\n<li>You will be positioned according to group. Stay with your group (unless you are the bomb).<\/li>\n<li>The MT takes up position in the centre of the room. A campfire will be setup to indicate the point. <\/li>\n<li>A hunter pulls Baron Geddon into the room using their pet. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>The Fight<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>After a hunter pulls Baron Geddon into the room, the MT engages immediately. The MT will keep Baron Geddon in the middle of the room, with the rest of the raid around him. <\/li>\n<li>Full DPS is called after the MT has established aggro.<\/li>\n<li>Melee can go in to damage Baron Geddon, however they must immediately move out of the way when he begins to pulsate.<\/li>\n<li>Baron Geddon&#8217;s aggro table is reset immediately after he pulsates, so it&#8217;s important for the MT to use a ranged shot to keep Baron Geddon&#8217;s attention.<\/li>\n<li>Pallies and (priests without pallies in their group) must dispell the Ignite Mana debuff straight away from their groups.<\/li>\n<li>When a player has the bomb, they must run away from the group, towards the outer walls. See damage minimising techniques below. <\/li>\n<li>When Baron Geddon hits about 5%, he will try to do a &#8220;Final server for Ragnaros&#8221; and do a high damage blast wave. The idea is to burn him down incredibly fast before he does this. <\/li>\n<li>If\/when the MT becomes the bomb, he remains in place. All melee must move away from him. Priests needs to shield the MT and cast renew. Druids must cast rejuvenate. All healers must constantly heal the MT during this period to keep him alive.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>From a class point of view<\/strong><\/p>\n<table width=80%  border=1 align=center cellpadding=3 cellspacing=0 bordercolor=,000000>\n<tr bgcolor=,FFE4AE>\n<td width=10% valign=top>Druids<\/td>\n<td width=90%>\n<ul>\n<li>Druids should be healing the MT as main priority.<\/li>\n<li>Heal your group if the MT&#8217;s health is stable.<\/li>\n<li>If you see a party member with the bomb, cast Rejuvenate on them. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Surviving the bomb:<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Run to the outer wall.
