Sanguine Fountain:

First off it sounds like your tank did not have a proper level 100 MC shield equipped. A plate tank's avoidance drops a TON without one, I didn't notice until Buffrat pointed it out to me (uncontested dropped nearly 20% with a 95 shield). If he did though he's doing something wrong or the dispells were not updated with our fixes.

I can confirm that with my ****** Paladin I was able to tank the first mob with a solo healing Mystic, which would not be my first choice of solo healer. Also the 40 billion HP seemed fixed when we tested it, maybe the zone hasn't been pushed to patch, be patient either way.

ALSO: Please note we were told by Gninja that Sanguine Fountains is the new Vulak'Aerr's Dominion of AoM. While the mobs might not be x2's and the zone not labeled "Challenge Heroic" you are in a zone you probably aren't geared for. I spent hours in Dominion with 2 healers and a tank and got my *** kicked all over. Took a few weeks to gear up and get a perfect setup so to speak for the zone. I would imagine SF to be nearly identical in progression.

Either way was interesting to read feedback on another group's foray into Sanguine Fountains. The Ossuary zones look awesome!
