Return to Karazhan, Healer Guide

Updated 8 months ago for patch 7.3.5 and Timewalking by Preston. View the change log.

This page covers healer-focused strategies for the Return to Karazhan dungeon in Legion. 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.



 

Healer ModelBosses

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

Opera Hall Dungeon Journal ModelsOpera Hall

Players face one of these encounters at random every week.

During this encounter, players will be fighting Elfyra and Galindre at the same time.

Both bosses share a health pool due to Wikket Bond.

  • Summons Winged Assistants with Summon Assistants.
    • Winged Assistant
      • Deals light damage to random players with Throw Stuff.
  • Avoid the impact locations of Defy Gravity and the resulting Defy Gravity pools.
    • Touching a pool deals light damage to the player and knocks them into the air, this allows them to avoid Magic Magnificent, noted below.
Galindre
