World of Warcraft at Ten Ton Hammer

On normal difficulty Auriaya starts with 2 Sanctum Sentries (4 on heroic), these Sentries have 3 major abilities:
 - Strength of the Pack, a stacking damage increase buff that increases the damage done by the other Sentries when they are within 10 yards of each other
 - Savage Pounce, a charge ability that can only be used on the main target and only if that target is out of melee range and in line of sight. This ability does  initial physical damage and then additional physical damage every 1 second for 5 seconds.
- Rip Flesh is an attack that leaves a DOT on the target that will inflict Physical damage every 2 seconds for 20 seconds. This  DOT can stack up to 100 times.

On normal, you will need to bring two tanks to this boss, while on heroic you will need to bring 3. One tank should pick up Auriaya and the other should quickly pick up the Sentries (on heroic the adds will be split between the two OTs). Feral Defenders spawned during this fight will be left to their own devices, so DPS is key. The tank with the Sentries should do everything possible to avoid being feared. A warrior tank is excellent at this. If the tank does get feared, the Sentries will use Savage Pounce and there is a good chance the tank will die. The tank with the Sentries will be receiving stacks of Rip Flesh which will greatly increase the damage they are taking. When the predetermined amount of stacks is reached, the tank tanking the adds should taunt Auriaya while the tank who was once tanking the boss should pick up the adds. On heroic, the MT will switch with OT with the most stacks, OT1 will pick up the boss and allow their stacks to fall off. As soon as the stacks are gone OT1 should proceed to taunt the adds off of OT2 and OT2 should pick up Auriaya. This process should be repeated as needed until the death of the boss. Healers should be ready with extra heals to combat the extra amounts of damage going out here.

To prep for this achievement your raid will need to clear the trash mobs on both the right and left side instead of just one pack. Trust me, you will need the room. The Feral Defender will begin the fight with 8 stacks of Feral Essence which will allow the Defender to revive himself at the cost of 1 stack meaning that to gain this achievement you will need to kill the Defender 9 times. The Feral Defender also does a Feral Pounce to random targets who are out of melee range, doing Shadow damage and stunning the target for 4 seconds. On top of this, each time the Defender dies he will leave a Seeping Feral Essence void zone on the floor, which means the entire raid will be forced to move to various points in the room throughout the fight.

Keep in mind that only small amounts of DPS should be done to the boss,  to much will result in Auriaya’s death before the final death of the Defender. Since Auriaya has close to a 10 minute enrage timer and the Defender takes roughly 30-45 seconds to respawn between deaths it is very important that as soon as the Defender is up all DPS switches and brings it down as quickly as possible. Once the Defender dies, the raid will be forced to move to avoid the void zone left Engage the boss and the Feral Defender will spawn after roughly 1 minute.  behind. Once again only small amounts of DPS should be directed at the boss while waiting for the Defender to resurrect. Repeat this process until the Defender dies the final time, then proceed to finish off Auriaya who should be close to death at this point. Give yourself a pat on the back for gaining yet another achievement.
