Molten Colossus

Nice little layout that I found on wowhead for the Molten Colussus before Ignus:

How to handle the 2 Lava Giants before the boss:

The room you enter will look like this:

    | Stairs to Ignis |   O = Portal Spot
    |_               _|   @ = A Giant
___   |             |   ______   
   |__| @1       @2 |__|
.   
  O                XT-002
    __               ___
___|  |             |   |______
     _|             |_
    |                 |
    |   Razorscale    |

This is how they should be tanked:

                          T = Tanks     
                          D = DPS (Ranged AND Melee) 
                          H = Healers
    | Stairs to Ignis |   O = Portal Spot
    |____          ___|   @ = A Giant
___     |         |     _____
   |____|@1       |_____|@2
     H-> T           H-> T
 O   D               
    ____           XT-002-->
 __|    |         |     |______
     ___|         |___
    |                 |
    |   Razorscale    |

This way the healers wont be attacked/hit but they will still be able to see the tank because of the corner. The @2 giant should be MD pulled to it's location. Melee DPS wont do anything on this pull. Ranged DPS will be hit but the DMG is easily heal-able. Burn down @1 then move to @2.

That makes a lot of sense, so it can't be right, can it?

Just like BWL!

Just like BWL!

That does look a lot like the firemaw fight. I loved using this strategy on the last boss of UK too. It saves the healers the worry of being interupted by his shout.

If you dont want to move giant 2 as much he can be tanked in the same position (on his respective wall) as giant 1. Healers and casters then run in a wide arc near Razorscale to join with the other tank and his respective healers. Both strats will work. Melee dps and hunters can just run straight across since they cant be spell locked.
