> **AI-WRITTEN ANALYSIS** — The numbers come from the combat log. The verdict and notes were written by an AI reading them, and can be wrong in ways the numbers cannot. Written by Claude (Opus 5), from the combat log and the archive.
**Why it failed:** Lack of interrupts: Storm Adept bolts, 9 landed vs 2 kicks (group)
**Tip:** Lay on Hands yourself under 50% on a Ground Pound cast
## All 17 enemies died; every death came after 1:16, when a second pack added two Storm Adepts and nine Lightning Bolts landed in 20 seconds against two kicks.
This key was not lost to a wipe or to the clock. It was one continuous pull that the group won: all 17 enemies died, the last at 3:02, and the log ends 16 seconds later without saying why the key was dropped. Even with 1:15 of death penalty, the in-game timer would have read about 4:08 of 32:00.
The pull was really two packs. The first, up to 1:16, had one Storm Adept and nobody died, but it used almost everything: Healing Tide, Heroism, Spirit Link (which pulled Hyporock up from 3% at 0:31), and Hyporock's Divine Shield, Divine Protection, Healthstone and potion. The second pack was pulled before the first was dead and had two Storm Adepts. Their Lightning Bolts hit anyone but the tank for 300,000-370,000, and Sandfury Stonefist's Ground Pound, a four-second slam that cannot be kicked and hits all five for 300,000-450,000, landed on top. Ground Pound is in all five death windows and was the killing blow in two.
Whose fault: nobody's alone. What broke was interrupt coverage once two casters were bolting at the same time, plus one arrow that can be sidestepped. Nobody was battle-rezzed: every death was a release and a run of about 180 yards back from the entrance, 16 to 22 seconds out of the fight. Figures that are not in the tables below were read straight from the combat log.
**What to change**
1. Agree who kicks which Storm Adept before pulling the second pack. Nine bolts landed there in 20 seconds against two kicks, while a Counterspell went on a Stonefist that cannot be kicked and two Wind Shears landed on casts already stopped.
2. Hyporock: press Lay on Hands when a Ground Pound cast bar is up and you are under half health. It was available when you died at 1:38.
3. Demo Lock: sidestep Sandburst Arrow. The one that hit you did 95% of your health, and 11 of its 13 casts hit nobody.
4. Arcane Mage: press Greater Invisibility when you are held low for more than a few seconds. It was never pressed in the key.
5. Blood DK: keep Mind Freeze on the Storm Adepts until both are dead. It sat ready from 2:09 while two more bolts landed.
6. Keep the first-pack plan. It took more damage per second than the second pack and nobody died.
