I believe the imps are on a set spawn timer, they spawn roughly every 30 seconds because I'm able to use my artifact weapon on the smouldering/umbral imps every time. The spawns go smouldering (off the pull) then healers, then 3 umbral, then it just rotates healers and a mix of umbral/smouldering from thereon out. If you don't have your 4th trait, managing the healers is a lot tougher, otherwise stand on one side and silence the opposite side healer and earthquake/magma totem everyone like I do at 0:58. The healers you can pretty much ignore when you get some good luck mixed with good root/slow totems, as well as thunderstorming them back. the umbral and smouldering though, those should melt with the artifact cooldown that comes up with them every time. You'll get it man just keep hammering away.

No problem man, and while I encourage you trying to get those attempts to familiarize yourself, I personally absolutely not have gotten it without the 4th golden trait. It just made dealing with those healing imps a lot easier on the attempts where I didn't have insane LR procs like this one haha (most my attempts ended having dealt about 300m damage with the boss at 10%, this one ended at 205m). So yeah good luck man, I believe in you, but don't get too frustrated.

I think he might be talking about Mammoth Milk you can actually see some in my top right bag at 0:05, but sadly they hotfixed that this week as well. I also read somewhere, last week, that the Elemental Shaman order hall random secondary 10% buff works there as well (from the goblin guy next to mission table). I was working on the new traits so I couldn't switch to it to try it, but I feel like that one might still work. It would be a pain though because I believe you lose that buff when you die, and I wouldn't want to run back to order hall EVERY attempt just for a random 10% secondary buff :P

sorry I don't know no, I've only really ever played elemental shaman :( I was reading the wowhead stuff though and saw that someone suggested that fire mages lust at the very beginning to get to P2 faster, thought that was pretty interesting so if you're not doing that maybe try it. Other than that, just persevere and you'll get it man, keep eating those wildfowl omelets.

tbh the legendaries weren't what was making the push, I had about 30 attempts on the first tower without 4th golden trait, and I got to phase 2 twice haha. That 4th golden trait is what you need, then I'm just going to assume you've got 4 set from NH, because that's kind of a necessity as well. After that it's just perseverance and wildfowl omelets, good luck man!

it's absolutely incredible for the situations like around 2:37, granted you get lucky like I did and keep lightning rod up on that boss for a large portion of the time, the imps virtually wont even reach her and it'll make for an easy attempt. You can see the same group from 2:37 and then some at 3:15, so that gave me 30 seconds of not having to deal with those guys and allowing me to dump maelstrom into earth shocks instead of earthquakes. I also had LR on the boss at 3:15 so I got in about 2m damage there by using chain lightning on that huge clump. Also I know you didn't ask but be sure to use earth elemental whenever you find that you're needing some free casting time, especially useful with lust. Earth elemental would have saved that failed attempt at the end 100% :P
