You can use Immolation first cast only, but you will risk Gyrexle healing out because Failsafe didn't trigger. I think it has something to do with different backline/weather abilities affecting the Gyrexle's health in a way that causes them to use Repair late/early enough.

I'd like to start off by saying that the suggested strategy using Puddle Terror is by far the safest strategy out there, i was able to solo it with just Sunlight/Nature's Ward, killing off the back line entirely during the first encounter.

One of the hardest fights in Draenor. It is not suitable to use for leveling a pet as it takes way too long and is unreliable.

I like the use of Puddle Terror here, since Nature's Ward cancels out Rot's transformation to an Undead.

Of course it works just as well with other Sunlight+Healing combos, but I like the extra thought behind completely canceling the one thing that can accumulate damage for your pets. ^^

That said, I changed the lines to add some clarity, but nothing is different form the original.

Used a blossoming ancient instead of one of the terrors - same concept

I realized that I hadn't followed the script 100% - after doing that, it was a long fight, but worked perfectly!
