Lava Packs

Attacks:
Each mobs has various attacks.  The combination of all these attacks can be quite devastating to an unprepared raid group.

Lava Reaver- Simplest of the mobs.  He is a stone elemental with a vicious melee attack and a cleave.   This mob is banishable.
Lava Elemental-  Another stone elemental.  He has a frontal blast which stuns multiple targets and puts a vicious dot on those affected.  This mob is banishable.
Flameguard- Small AE damage attack that continuously goes off.  Debuffs AC by a large amount.  Has an inferno like ability which does large fire damage.
Firewalker- This mob is the dangerous one and appears in each type of pack.  He has an AE that debuffs fire resist and likes to chain 3000 damage fireballs at single targets.  He can unleash over three of these in a matter of seconds.  Kill this first.
Strategy:
Since this group makes up the bulk of zone trash past Garr we have gotten plenty of practice fighting them, but are still refining our strategy.  Currently we let our warlocks get pretargets on the stone elementals.  Then we have a paladin Divine Shield and agro the pack.  The paladin slowly walks back towards the raid as the warlocks banish their targets and the hunters send their pets at the Firewalker to hopefully eat up the initial volley of 3000 damage fireballs.  We have one warrior pull the Flameguard out of camp to be offtanked while the raid focuses on the Firewalker.  Heals need to come fast and furious on these encounters.  We still typically lose two or three people on a pull.
