It's by far my favorite instance. And I use it now to gauge my improvement as a healer. It's a night and day difference from when I started. My last run, we one shotted every boss, and our hunter dc'ed just as we started clearing murmur's room. We kept clearing hoping she'd get back, but ended up 4-manning him...one shot one kill and I got the spellstrike pants pattern. I absolutely LOVE Slabs. It’s by far my favorite instance.

At the end, I was spamming Prayer of Healing in between GH's. Was exciting, to say the least! Yep, the tank hung in there the whole time. At the end, I was spamming Prayer of Healing in between GH’s.

The pulls are all so random that really, you just have to arbitrarily mark everything and say, "Ok, this is how we're going to kill them." On the Murmur healing thing, was your tank staying in for explosions or what? I roll as a shadow priest, but for simplicity's sake on most SLabs runs, we usually have our tank just tank Murmur straight through and when the explosion starts I start casting a GHeal7 on the MT with a renew and ProM immediately afterward while the MH keeps healing as normal. We usually had moderately geared tanks when we were doing this though. Mostly bears with like 10-13K health. “The only thing I saw that we need to improve on is how to handle kill order”
