# Temple of Sethraliss +16 — TIMED

31:23 · +1, 2% under the 32:00 par · 5 deaths · Tyrannical, Fortified, Xal'atath's Guile

> **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 5.5), from the combat log and the archive.

**Tip:** Hold Divine Toll for the boss's opening Wings

## Timed with 38 s to spare and no Cheap Shot all key; most of the deaths came from where people stood.

The start went cleanly this time. Hyporock's Blinding Light took the first 2 Fangs, and Prot Paladin's AoE touched every later Fang before it could open, so no Poisoned Cheap Shot landed all key. The group timed it, but the deaths cost 1:15, about twice the margin it finished with.

Demo Lock stood apart from the group when Adderis's Thunder and Lightning landed and took all of it alone. Resto Shaman ran ahead after Adderis died and was killed by a Sandswept Marksman's Volley. In the Agitated Nimbus pull, Demo Lock died twice to Release Charge after Spark Step from the Static Anomalies had already taken them low.

**What to change**

1. Demo Lock: stand with the group when Adderis casts Thunder and Lightning.
2. Resto Shaman and Demo Lock: stay out of the Static Anomalies' Spark Step in the Agitated Nimbus pull.
3. Resto Shaman: stay behind the tank when moving on after a boss.
4. Hyporock: on the last pack before a boss, hold Divine Toll for the boss's opening Wings.

## How to improve

**Prot Paladin — Prot Paladin**

Nothing to change that the log shows clearly.

**Resto Shaman — Resto Shaman**

Keep: Healing covered everything. You covered all of the damage that needed an outside heal, which is as high as the scale goes. Change: move out of Spark Step when Static Anomalies are up in the Agitated Nimbus pull. Spark Step hit you more than 5 times as often as anyone in melee. You also died to a Sandswept Marksman's Volley after running ahead of the tank once Adderis was dead.

**Hyporock — Ret Paladin**

Keep: Last key's notes, all used. Blinding Light caught the first 2 Fangs, and neither opened on the tank. Hammer of Justice and Cleanse Toxins went out all key. You did the most damage in the group, never died, and brought 2 players back with Intercession. Change: press Divine Toll on the last trash pack before a boss, when Wings will be ready for the pull. Toll went on an Agitated Nimbus 19 s before the Galvazzt Wings. After that it came up about 20 s ahead of every Wings, just outside the hold window, so no Galvazzt Wings had Toll inside it. Toll then lands on the boss and lines up with every Wings in the fight.

**Havoc DH — Havoc DH**

Your one death was a Corrupted Guardian's Tainted Strike that hit you instead of the tank, with 15 s left at the Avatar. Nothing to change from this key.

**Demo Lock — Demo Lock**

Keep: Damage and kicks. Your damage matched the group's median, and you stopped more casts than expected. Change: stack with the group when Adderis starts casting Thunder and Lightning. At the cast that killed you, you stood 32 yd from everyone else and took all of it alone. At the other casts, people stood close together and nobody took more than about a quarter as much. Spark Step from the Static Anomalies also took you low before both Release Charge deaths.

### As a group

Stack when Adderis casts Thunder and Lightning. The one time a player stood apart, it killed them outright, and every other cast spread harmlessly across whoever was close. In the Agitated Nimbus pull, the ranged players took most of the Spark Step from the Static Anomalies, and Release Charge then hit everyone every few seconds on top of it. After a boss dies, let the tank lead into the next area, since the Sandswept Marksmen shoot whoever arrives first.

### The comp

The comp covered everything Temple asks for, including a poison cleanse and plenty of stuns for the Fangs and hunters.

## Notes

### The Fangs, again

The same 5 Fangs sat on the route to Adderis (about 31, 36, 92, 141 and 172 yd from the entrance, matching the 09-26 to 09-28 layout), plus a sixth near Adderis. Prot Paladin's Divine Hammer, Consecration or Tyr's Enforcer touched each of the first 5 before it reached anyone, and a Wild Imp touched the sixth. Hyporock's Blinding Light also caught the first 2. No Poisoned Cheap Shot was cast all key.

### Rotation audit (rowB)

Toll with Wings 73%; the other rowB keys ran 88 to 100% for Toll, except the 09-27 Ruby at 52%. Wake with Wings 77% (other rowB keys 50 to 100%). The Toll gap is almost all Galvazzt: Tolls at 20:10, 21:10 and 22:12 each came 19 to 25 s before the next Wings (19:28, 20:29, 21:35, 22:37), just outside the 15 s hold. Wings sat ready 70 s per 10 min, with holds of 30 s on Adderis and 38 s at the Avatar. Wake went out during the Avatar hold, as advised for 30+ s; Toll did too, 11 s before Wings, where the advice waits for 60+ s. Potions: 6.

## Method

Each axis is scored 0 to 100 against what this run allowed, not against a fixed target. A player is only scored on things their spec can do. An axis that does not apply is left out and the other weights are scaled up. 100 means nothing was missed; a solid, even key usually lands near 75. Survival and mechanics carry no weight of their own: they start at 100 and take points off when something went wrong.
