Uldaman, Healer Guide

Updated 2 years, 8 months ago for patch 1.13 by Preston. View the change log.

This page covers healer-focused strategies for the Uldaman dungeon. While it's tailored for healers, other roles may also find the information useful. If you have any suggestions or feedback, you can leave a comment below or tweet @PrestonDvorak.

This guide has been updated and maintained based on my own experiences as well as Dungeon Journal information. I'll continue to update it as-needed.

Best for players level 40-45.

Uldaman has a Front and a Back entrance. The Back entrance makes it easier to access the later bosses, but this guide assumes you'll be going in through the Front entrance.

 Bosses

Below are guides for the bosses in Uldaman, including their abilities, healer notes, and addon settings.

    • Stay at least 5-yards away to avoid the stun from Shield Slam.

 Healing Notes
