There is nothing there to heal through if you are doing the dance right. And any healy peeps that do it wrong won't get a chance to heal anyway. EVERYBODY ELSE has one job: do the dance. If they do the job right, you have no need to heal them, either. If they do it wrong, your heals probably won't matter. The poison jets are enough to one-shot anyone but a tank. So. Just dance. The *transition*, where the squishies are briefly in proximity to him, is the difficult part. Practice and preperation will get you through. DBM is also handy so you don't get surprised :) By the by, search Youtube for "tankspot" plus the name of the boss you are interested in. They do great instructional vids for the whole raid, not just tanks. Further on the Heigan dance;

Heigan was my husband's BANE for ages. He never lived past the first dance, and he was a caster. However, I found a picture for him, and printed it out (in color!) and told him to strafe. He put it next to his monitor, and the next time we did Heigan, he lived! He said it was the best thing I'd ever done for him, and so now I'm passing along the link to the pic for you. I'd really recommend printing it out, IN COLOR, and putting it next to your monitor if you ever go near Heigan again. <a href="http://img367.imageshack.us/img367/8518/hagdanceja6.jpg" target="_blank">http://img367.imageshack.us/img367/8518/hagdancej...</a> I'm sorry your Naxx experience was so bad, but I'm hopeful you'll have better luck on your new server! And sorry I didn't post this earlier when I first read your post, but I tend to read them out loud to my husband as we're making our morning commute. ;) Oh, Tam!
