Halls of Stone

Navigate the Halls of Stone in World of Warcraft with our expert guide. Learn boss strategies for Krystallus, Tribunal of Ages, Maiden of Grief, and Sjonnir to conquer this challenging dungeon.

Alright, so you're heading into the Halls of Stone! This place is a bit of a step up in difficulty, marked with four stars, and you'll be facing four bosses in the Storm Peaks. The regular enemies, or 'trash,' aren't too bad for the most part, but there's one particular group of enemies right at a fork in the path that can really catch you off guard, so be ready for that.

Let's break down the bosses:

Krystallus

This fight is all about positioning. After Krystallus does his 'toss' ability, you absolutely need to spread out. If you're all clumped together when his petrify shatters, you're going to take massive damage and likely wipe. Staying spread out minimizes the damage each person takes.

Tribunal of Ages

This encounter is a bit of a survival test. You'll be fighting off waves of trash enemies that start showing up later in the fight. Keep an eye out for beams coming down from above – a good strategy is to use the stairs to hide from these. The main goal here is to keep everyone healed up and, most importantly, protect Brann!

Maiden of Grief

For this fight, your ranged damage dealers and casters should hang out in the center of the room. The tank will be kiting the boss around the wall. Try your best to interrupt her 'Pillar of Woe' ability. If the tank needs to, they can jump into a void zone to stop the 'Shock of Sorrow' effect – warriors can even use Berserking Rage for this. The key is to kite her effectively so that your melee players don't get caught by those damaging zones.

Sjonnir

Having a way to dispel the 'Lightning Shield' debuff on Sjonnir will make your healer's life a lot easier. Your damage dealers should focus on picking up all the non-elite adds, with your best DPS concentrating on the boss himself. When the oozes appear, burn as many down as you can. If you can kill them before they turn elite, it's a huge help because allies will show up shortly after to assist in finishing the fight. Honestly, just surviving until that point is a win. If this guy wasn't so close to the entrance, this dungeon would easily be a five-star difficulty!
