1-2-3-4-3-2-1-2-3-4....sounds easy? Sure, everything does on paper. Move him to a new quater every few seconds to avoid the eruption..bla bla bla. What Blizzard forgot to mention is how badly lag can (and will) screw your raid over if many members are lagging. A one second lag and you may just find yourself in the middle of an eruption, sealing your doom.

This problem is especially prominant for Oceania players. Lag really kills.

Heigan the Unclean. The infamous ballet dancer is situated the fungus room right after Noth the Plague Bringer.

The Basics:

  • He has two phases which he switches to and fro continuously
  • When you first engage him, rangers and casters stand at his palatform
  • Melee 'dances' with him via eruptions on the ground
  • You can survive if you're only by the edge of such eruption
  • During Phase two, eruptions are more frequent
  • Everyone has to dance
  • Only 1/4 of a room is safe during the entire fight
  • During a Phase change, the safe area is reset to 1

That is the clear spot for Sector 2

The safe spot for Sector 3. [Last ghoul standing]

TBH, there is really not much you can do to learn the Safety Dance. The only way (and painfully) is to do him and hope your connection holds. One way you can avoid the eruption is to see where the previous eruption takes place and move over there immediately after. Either that or just run to the tank! (Providing he knows what he is doing)
