Maiden of Virtue Strategy — Karazhan

Phase 1 · Karazhan · 1 tank, 3 healers, rest dps

A healing and spacing check. Maiden casts Repentance (a raid-wide stun/incapacitate) and Holy Fire/Holy Ground, so the raid spreads out and healers pre-empt the burst.

Fight phases

  1. 1

    Single phase

    Tank her in the center or against a wall; raid spreads at range. Heal through Holy Wrath and survive each Repentance.

By role

Tanks

Position her so melee aren't standing in Holy Ground. Steady threat — this is a healer fight, not a threat fight.

Healers

Repentance stuns the raid for several seconds — top everyone BEFORE it lands, because you can't heal during it. Holy Fire is a heavy DoT on random targets.

DPS

Spread out to minimize Holy Wrath chaining. Melee step out of Holy Ground under the boss.

Common mistakes

  • Not pre-healing before Repentance and losing players to the stun.
  • Stacking up so Holy Wrath chains through the raid.
