Deathbringer Saurfang Boss Strategy Guide

The battle against Deathbringer Saurfang is fairly cut and dry. Ranged DPS should fan out across the battle area so if one of them is hit by Blood Nova, it doesn’t damage anyone else.
Ranged DPS should also switch from Deathbringer Saurfang to his adds whenever they spawn, which is once every 40 seconds. The Blood Beasts give Deathbringer Saurfang blood power if they damage any party member, so it’s best to take them out before they get close to anyone. Melee DPS should stay on Deathbringer Saurfang the enter battle.
Use two or three tanks in the fight, and the tanks should taunt off each other every time he casts Rune of Blood to avoid letting him heal himself.
Deathbringer Saurfang casts Mark of the Fallen Champion when he reaches 100 blood power. Healers should watch for this to be cast and heal the target through it. If the target dies, it heals him 5 percent. Assign one healer to take on the task of healing whoever gets hit with Mark of the Fallen Champion.
