**Tip:** On Nalorakk, save Divine Shield for an Echoing Maul
## Timed with 3:24 to spare. Two deaths were one Raging Squall at 17:11; the third was two Echoing Maul circles at once.
The key was timed +1 at 28:36, 3:24 under par. Three people died and the group could afford it.
The big one was pull 7 at 17:11. Resto Shaman and Devourer DH died in the same second to Raging Squall from the Sentinel of Winter, 976k and 942k. Neither had a defensive up. Resto Shaman died in one hit.
Hyporock died at 26:30 on Nalorakk, standing in two Echoing Maul circles at once. Each circle is about 565k, two thirds of his health, and he went in at 72% after Echoing Fury. Divine Shield had run out 6 s earlier.
Damage was even across the three dealers. Kicks were the weak spot: 21 of 96 casts got through, mostly Earth Bolt and Lightning Bolt.
**What to change**
1. Hyporock: on Nalorakk, save Divine Shield for a Maul cast when you are low, not for Echoing Fury. Fury can be healed through; one Maul circle at 72% cannot, and two circles cannot at any health.
2. Resto Shaman and Devourer DH: Raging Squall from the Sentinel of Winter hits for about 950k. Have a defensive up before it or be out of it. Neither pressed one at 17:11.
3. Kicks: Earth Bolt and Lightning Bolt got through 18 times. Hyporock had 9 kicks against 14 expected; Resto Shaman 4 against 16 and never used Purge.
4. Nothing to change on damage. 250k, 255k and 274k is an even group.
