Torment
Soak

Every 30s, Baleroc summons a Shard of Torment (two in 25 man), which casts Torment on the closest player within 15 yards.


Being the closest player to a Shard of Torment grants you Torment stacks, which give healers stacks of Vital Spark on direct heals.


If no player is within 15 yards of a Shard of Torment, it AoEs the whole raid for massive damage.
