Critical Mass on Stormrage just downed Ebonroc today, and I have to say that Mongo's excellent semi-writeup here makes the fight look a lot more fun than it is.
It can be intensely frustrating when a bunch of taunts are resisted in a row and Ebonroc heals seven to ten percent despite doing everything right. What's even more annoying is the current bug with Ebonroc; every now and then, despite having aggro solidly locked on the main tank, he'll turn away from the tank and nuke half the raid for ~5k shadow damage. He will literally be targeting the main tank the entire time and yet will inexplicably swing away and fwoosh the casters.
How did The Core deal with that, Mongo? Does the positioning in that room result in fewer random shadowflames? CM had to use a combination of battle ressing, sucking it up, and running and hiding to deal with it.
