This page covers a healer-focused strategy for Garr in Molten Core. 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

• Accompanied by eight Firesworn.
  • Firesworn
    • Are susceptible to Banish from Warlocks.
    • Dispel Immolate (magic) to prevent the light damage over time.
      • This can also be removed with items like Restorative Potion.
    • Upon death, Eruption deals heavy damage to players within 15-yards.
    • Must be kept within 20-yards of Garr to avoid gaining Separation Anxiety, increasing damage dealt and granting immunity to Banish.
• Removes beneficial magic effects from players using Antimagic Pulse.
• Applies Magma Shackles (dispel, magic) to players, reducing movement speed.

Season of Mastery Differences

• Magmakin spawn throughout the encounter.
  • Magmakin
    • Charges a random players with Eruption, dealing light damage to all players within 8-yards and knocking them back.

Resistance Levels

• Tanks
  • Holding Firesworn should have as much Fire Resistance as possible without sacrificing their other stats.
• Melee and Ranged/Healers generally won't make use of any 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.

• The tank with the Firesworn will take significant damage until most of them are killed, in addition to taking the damage from each Eruption.
• Be aware of Antimagic Pulse removing buffs and heal over time effects.
• While Magma Shackles (dispel, magic) can be dispelled, it's generally not worth the mana to do so in most cases.

Debuffs to Track

• Minor: Immolate (dispel, magic)
