Avoidable damage2 Ravenous Swarms killed Hyporock firstHyporockAvoidable damageSwarm killed Disc Priest with Chitigoth at 4.5%Disc Priest

Chitigoth was at 4.5% when the healer died; dodgeable Ravenous Swarms killed Hyporock first and then Disc Priest.

The retry killed every orb and Raj'kess, then wiped on Chitigoth in the arena. His Insidious Aura hits all five for about 350k every 2 seconds while it runs. Right after the first aura, two Ravenous Swarms caught Hyporock less than a second apart and killed him. Those swarms drift around the room and can be dodged. He came back on Affli Lock's soulstone with the second aura already running and died to its next two ticks. Enh Shaman died on that aura's last tick, and a swarm landing with a Savage Leap killed Disc Priest. Blood DK was alone when Chitigoth died 12 seconds later. Healing held up as well as in your other Chitigoth fights, so the swarm hits on Hyporock and Disc Priest decided it.

Lay on Hands on the healer

In the first storm you put Lay on Hands on Disc Priest at about 30% health with pulses still to come, and she lived through it. You also did the second most damage to the orbs (keydb).

How it went

  1. 4:28CascadeHyporock, Enh Shaman, Disc Priest and Affli Lock in 24 s, to Ravenous Swarm, Insidious Aura and Savage Leap. Hyporock went first. 3 of 5 with no defensive pressed.
  2. 5:11The key was dropped 5:11 in, with 23:42 left on the timer.

What to change, biggest first

  1. Hyporock: dodge the drifting Ravenous Swarms at Chitigoth
  2. Hyporock: accept a battle res only after Insidious Aura ends
  3. Group: call swarms at Chitigoth; nothing to change on Disc Priest's cooldown timing

What the group changes together

The arena went the same way as your last timed Voidscar Arena, with the same big pack first and then Chitigoth with the Raptor wave. Chitigoth lost health at about the usual rate until the first death (keydb), so the route and the damage were fine. Call the swarms out loud at Chitigoth and keep the melee moving with them. Take battle resurrections between auras. Hyporock came back at 60% health during one and lost most of it to the next tick.

Notes

Where the numbers need a second look

Was it lack of heals

Not by the numbers. During Chitigoth Disc Priest healed 147k/s and absorbed another 55k/s. In your other five Chitigoth fights the Resto Shamans did 141k to 211k/s, totems included (keydb). Party intake was 436k/s, the lowest of those six fights. Her mana stayed at 91% or more. The fight ran 67 s against 47 to 55 s elsewhere because of the deaths, and two of the five deaths were swarm hits.

Divine Protection at Raj'kess, again

DP went out at 0:42 on trash, so it was down for the first storm, where Lay on Hands and Divine Shield did the work. It then went out at 1:48, 10 s after that storm, and was refused at 2:17 after the second storm, which left Hyporock at 3%. Same pattern as the 15:24 run (106 s, refused at 129 s). After the soulstone he pressed Divine Storm at 20% with Divine Purpose up, where a free Word of Glory on himself was on offer.
