This page covers healer-focused strategies for The Slave Pens dungeon in The Burning Crusade. 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 and combat log information. I'll continue to update it as-needed.

 Bosses

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

Mennu the Betrayer

• Interrupt Lightning Bolt to prevent the light damage dealt.
• Summons various totems throughout the encounter.
  • Mennu's Healing Ward should be killed quickly to prevent the healing over time.
  • Tainted Stoneskin Totem should be killed quickly to prevent the reduced melee damage taken effect.
  • Tainted Earthgrab Totem should be killed quickly to prevent players from being affected by Earthgrab, rooting them in place and dealing light damage over time.
  • Move at least 15-yards away from Corrupted Nova Totem to avoid the moderate damage from Fire Nova when the totem expires or is killed.

 Healing Notes

• As long as the totems are kept under control this fight shouldn't be very healing intensive. The hardest totem will be the Corrupted Nova Totem, which is most likely to hit the tank and melee DPS.

 Debuffs to Track

• Minor: Earthgrab

 Addons

• Healer DBM Settings for Mennu the Betrayer
