Don't Stand in the Fire
Some bosses just love dropping Void Zone after Void Zone on the ground. This can be fire, acid, inky black spots, naked blood elf girls, or anything else likely to cause you harm. But no matter its outward form, it's still fire.
If the fire is a wall rather than a spot on the ground, this may end up splitting the raid or moving people out of range of the healers, so Position Matters.
If the fire moves, it's Eyebeams Pew Pew.
Examples
- Too many to list, but here goes...
- Karazhan
- Nightbane's Charred Earth.
- Battle For Mount Hyjal
- Archimonde's Doomfire is probably the definitive work on the subject.
- Naxxramas
- Heigan's Dance is a predictable, but fast-paced, example.
- Lady Blaumeux during the Four Horsemen encounter.
- Ulduar
- Flame Leviathan's Hard Modes consist of progressively more types of fire, depending on which towers you leave up.
- Mimiron's Hard Mode consists of this and a Doomsday Clock (which the raid activated...)
- Trial of the Crusader
- Gormok the Impaler has adds which throw fire at random raid members.
- Icecrown Citadel
- Lord Marrowgar throws Coldflame trails in an X pattern. During phase 1, the mitigation for this is to Group Hug. During phase 2, Run Away Little Girl becomes preferable...
- Vault of Archavon
- Koralon throws down fire from time to time.
