    Healers

Before you go

  • Kill or control totems and feared or charmed players safely.
  • Keep the area around Ikiss's pillars clear so everyone can use them for cover.
  • Normal has no key. Heroic requires the Auchenai Key. Anzu's original summon is tied to the Druid epic-flight quest route; check the realm's summon rules.
