Based upon feedback from the 1.6.1 patch, we're going to make the following changes to Blackwing Lair in an upcoming Hotfix. When the hotfixes goes live, we'll make another post confirming the deployment to you all.
1) When Razorgore the Untamed uses his Conflagration ability, he will no longer wipe the threat of the targeted player. This should allow guilds to much more reliably tank Razorgore even if their guild has been depleted from the previous phase of the encounter.
2) We found an issue with this patch that was causing Vaelastrasz the Corrupted to use his Burning Adrenaline too frequently against players attempting to tank him. We fully intend for tanks to be hit by this ability during the course of the fight, but the current casting rate is definitely not intended.
3) When Broodlord Lashlayer uses his Knock Away ability, he will no longer completely wipe the threat of the ability's target. Only a portion of the player's threat will be lost. This should better allow tanks who are affected by the Knock Away to eventually regain aggro during the course of the fight, and not force guilds to bring imbalanced numbers of Warriors to the encounter.
