The Four Horsemen, Healer Guide
Posted 2 months, 1 week ago for patch 1.13.6 by Preston.
This page covers a healer-focused strategy for The Four Horsemen in Naxxramas. 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 with the encounter, logs information, and Dungeon Journal information. I'll continue to update it as-needed.
General Mechanics and Abilities
- This encounter revolves around players managing the different Mark stacks each boss applies. In general, 5-6 stacks of a Mark should be safe before needing to move on to a different boss.
- Each boss will be tanked in its own corner of the room, ensuring the 65-yard range of Mark applications don't overlap.
- Shared Abilities
- At 50% and 20% health,
Shield Wall greatly reduces damage taken for 20-seconds.
- Upon death, a Spirit of the boss is left behind at the corpse's location, continuing the cast the boss' abilities.
- After casting 100 Marks,
Enrages, gaining increased attack speed and physical damage dealt, and removing the cooldown of all abilities.
- Casting 100 Marks will take about 20-minutes, making this a very long enrage timer.
- At 50% and 20% health,
- Highlord Mograine
- Applies
Mark of Mograine to all players within 65-yards every 12-seconds, dealing increasing damage with each stack.
- The tank will be dealing with stacks of
Righteous Fire, dealing increasing light damage over time.
- Applies
- Lady Blaumeux
- Applies
Mark of Blaumeux to all players within 65-yards every 12-seconds, dealing increasing damage with each stack.
- Avoid the locations of
Void Zone, players inside a Zone take moderate damage over time from
Consumption until moving out.
- Applies
- Sir Zeliek
- Applies
Mark of Zeliek to all players within 65-yards every 12-seconds, dealing increasing damage with each stack.
- Stay at least 10-yards away from other players to avoid chaining
Holy Wrath.

- Applies
Mark of Korth'azz to all players within 65-yards every 12-seconds, dealing increasing damage with each stack.

Resistance Levels
- Players generally won't make use of additional resistances on this encounter.
Healing Notes
The notes below mostly pertain to progression difficulty, meaning if you out-gear the difficulty you're on or use extra healers they may not apply.
- Healers will likely be spread out to heal each of the tanks, reducing the overall healing available to the rest of the players. Thankfully, as long as Mark stacks are managed, the healing required on non-tanks will be low and predictable.
Debuffs to Track
- Major:
Righteous Fire,
Meteor
