video we did in beta: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yLggqMEM02o, but maybe not a good reference because we usually keep Corrupted Blood more than 2 member, but achievement only need at least one. the reason is there are too many buggy things on beta so we spread it.....wildly.

I feel this is tedious and irritable when item level below 170, but make a plan for full run will be better. suggest clean trash mobs at first, and specify 2-3 member to keep debuff, others stand by. DO NOT disperse when boss gonna die, guys who keeping debuff should stand together.

Multi-seat mount is good for long distance moving, remember carry food or can heal class, heal instantly after move end. Teamwork on boss fight is necessary, as now we now boss spell timer, for example you need at least one guy go demolition bomb in Manastorms encounter, and specify one is better.

the problem we encountered in beta: debuff gone with no reason although we check combatlog and streams (happened in earlier version, possible because debuff stop spread when another irrelevant debuff end), suddenly dead with no reason, fall to death in least boss fight (this bug possible happened because 2 ppl go into same portal), suddenly aggro a elite which far than 100+ yards. but they should all be fixed in retail.

PS. one more thing, but should recheck it's still happened in retail or not: warrior legendary Misshapen Mirror will stop debuff spread when Spell Reflection is effecting you.

After defeating Dealer Xy'exa, do not take the green portal / Flight path as its duration will remove the debuff. You can and should walk up the ridge by going to the right of the portal and manually walk to the entrance.

Comment by Yngwie

We had a tank+melee hold onto the debuff and 2 range hold onto it also for redundancy. We got it 1st try this way after failing multiple times with only 2 people holding onto it.

Comment by Knuckle

It takes a little longer, but you can clear all of the trash in the instance (both the ring and each boss area) prior to killing Hakkar, which makes moving around the instance while keeping the debuff much easier.

Highly Communicable (All bosses)
-------------------------
Video with short voice-over guide.

- Clear all the trash in the dungeon
- Easier if you do the other dungeon achievements first, then reset and do this by itself.
- During the Hakkar fight, ensure you have the Corrupted Blood debuff on two people and stack them together.
- You need to keep this debuff bouncing between two people while you finish the dungeon
- It 'bounces' to nearby players at the end of its duration
- You can mount and eat with this debuff to healer
- A 2-seater mount can be used for convenience
- You can swap the debuff onto any other players, it does not have to be the same two with it the entire tiem
- The Z-Axis will stop this debuff from spreading, so make sure to always stick very close
- We had two melee bounce the debuff between them, until the last fight and then moved it to the tank and healer so we could 1-phase the intermission.

It is highly recommended to clear adds in the instance before you engage Hakkar the Soulflayer

After you defeat Dealer Xy'exa , you can use 2-men mounts like Obsidian Nightwing to use portal, that way you won't lose the debuff.

Here is the video of our group doing this achievement: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-i7iWGb-8GU

Simple summary with photo. Not exactly hard, but easy for a misstep.
Optional: Grab some cheap Seraph Tenders to help
Do not try for Thinking With... achievement in same run. Do Thinking With... first for boss mechanics practice.

Clear all trash along paths to all bosses, start with East, then South, then West (to finish trash at Hakkar).
Kill Hakkar first, as quick as you like.
At least 2 people bounce Hakkar's Corrupted Blood dot (1758 dmg per 3s, 12s duration, 7yrd pulse spreads) back and forth for rest of entire dungeon. Paranoid? Use 3 people.
Kill other bosses. (Mostly, avoid Dealer Xy'era's massive ground AOE by using trap to fly into air. After Dealer dead, DOT carriers click the green return portal at the same time. Don't forget to disarm Millificent's Bombs.)
Before last boss pull, transfer DOT to healer and tank. Assign the 4 green portals that will spawn in the 4 corners of the platform with raid markers. Mark party members with corresponding markers.
Pull boss, can practically ignore damage in phase 1. Focus on mechanics and the DOT maintenance.
Eventually the 4 green portals spawn, each of 3 DPS take their own, healer & tank take 4th with debuff. Blow cooldowns here to kill spirit opposite totem, then click totem and wait to be teleported to boss. Kill boss.

Single healer is okay
Take your time between bosses.
Can drink with debuff
Fail = dungeon reset & reclear trash
Resetting Hakarr removes the debuff

Bug that causes Stellar Cloud on OUR platform wiped us on Mueh'zala. ^&*! this

How to get Highly Communicable:

clear all trash mobs in the path
go to the boss Hakkar
pull the boss to get the debuff Corrupted Blood
set 2 or 3 player to stay near all the time
kill all bosses in the dungeon

For Manastorms we set the dps to stay with the debuff while others do the mechanics.
For Dealer Xy'exa except the tank, we do all fight on the top of the platform, because if you get the green portal you'll lose the debuff.
For Mueh'zala set the players with the debuff to enter in the near portal to not lose the debuff.

Having a 2 seater mount makes this achievement really easy when running the ring.

Comment by Blackupfreddy

Did this in an M+ dungeon and we did not receive the achievement. For anyone wondering, this has been tested a few times.

Comment by Djuntas

I suggest run with 2 healers. We almost got the other 2 achivements on the same run, but the ball boss killed us due to damage. Anyway 2 healers and only doing this on the 2nd run is safe! Oh and bring Ilvl 240+ to easy mode it :)

I just stacked on the tank the whole run, me being 2nd healer and I went only where he went.

Comment by NoNick1337

The damage of the DoT is currently bugged and hits level 70s for 35k-50k per tick as opposed to the declared 5680 damage per tick.

Comment by MisterPepsi

I just did this with a party of 5 in DF having over 440 ilvl and did the following:

1.Millhouse encounter, me and the other player stayed near a wall while the rest did the achiv
2.With the gambler, we dropped from the platform to the boss and stood right near the wall while the others were doing the orb
3.Last boss, we stood very close to him in case we needed to take a portal but it turns out you can nuke him.

Comment by Clypse

I was able to do this achievement with 2 accounts.
One with my 477 BM Hunter main and the other with a lvl 60 Resto Shaman.
It's stressful, but actually relatively easy to do that way.
You just have to take your time and know a few things ahead of time to avoid mistakes.

At first, I was afraid (I was petrified) that my Shaman would get destroyed by the DoT.
Turns out it didn't do much damage at all.
In fact, my main was taking more damage (not only in absolute number, but also in relative %).
So I had to focus heal on my main but it was very easy to heal by throwing a heal every minute or so.

1) First, I cleared the whole thrash with my main.
2) Went to Hakkar and stacked my toons together.
3) Waited for the DoT cast then switched to my main to burst Hakkar
4) At this point, I put my main on follow and Shaman was slowly walking to each boss while healing every now and then.
5) When I was positioned at a boss, I switched to main and burst the boss.

Important infos:
- The most stressful part is on the way to the Manastorms. Your toon can get stuck in the terrain and you have to avoid the knockback from the sewage pipe. So be watchful there.
I had an Engi to turn off the slimes so I can't comment on that part.
- When you kill the Manastorms, use the pipe to exit and NOT the teleporter. I was stupid enough to forget that the first time and died from sewage pipe trying to get back.
- My alt almost died in the Hidden Grove because of some hidden thrash I didn't see with my main. Keep an eye out for that.
- As stated before do not use the green orb to come back from that boss. Walk up the ledge.
- Keep your bursts (BL and such) for the last boss. You have to kill the boss ASAP to avoid the transition.
- Make your alt follow your main for the last boss fight. There is a couple of stuff to avoid that can kill him so you have to move around.
My shaman actually died there but I was lucky enough to reincarnate and pick up the DoT again (otherwise I'd have to start over).
- I suggest using the Achievement Tracker addon to easily monitor the DoT's time left on each toon.
With that I made sure to pause when 1-2 seconds were left to re-apply the DoT.

And with that, the Meta is completed!
