Tips & preparation

• For tribute, agree which guards to spare before starting and bring the materials for the trap or ogre disguise if using them.
• In West, disable all five crystal pylons by killing their nearby elementals before fighting Immol'thar.
• East's lashers can overwhelm a spread party; pull them away from additional packs.
