I just healed Forge of Souls and Pits of Saron for the first time.
Ofc I read the strategies before doing so, and most of the time everything went as expected. Except on the fight with Scourgelord Tyrannus. We started the fight and when he marked someone to be shot down by Rimefang (No one elso got marked but me) I would run away from the area to avoid the Ice missle, but no matter where or how far I ran I would still get hit. (I'd get a red aim around me that would follow wherever I ran)
I healed myself after for the first 2 or 3 times but then I died (luckly he was almost dead and the group finished him off).
So my question is: how the hell do I avoid beign hit by Rimefang's ice attack? Where should I run ?

yeah my group wiped about 5 times on H HoR before it bugged too
the problem I'm having is that even if I keep moving when he marks me I still get hit by the Frost Wyrm's Ice attack.
Is there an specific point You have to run to ?

I think that all you have to do is to run away from others, so they dont get hit by its area effect. Whoever is marked will always get hit and frozen for a while.

Ran it last night with a random group - really quite fun and we just burned them all down.
Great fun.
The HoR last part is lots of fun. The first bit with Falric and Marwyn is quite difficult, though might have been our tank finding it difficult to tank ~5 mobs. Hmmm.
Didn't wipe on any of them though which is encouraging. Definitely a good few instances though. It's essentially like an old classic instance with lots of boss fights, but they at least allow you to just do one part if you want. Nobody wants to do Princess runs again... urgh.

It seems so, it's just that at the Tyrannus page both here and at wowwiki it says the ice damage can be avoided, and our party leader told me I had to run away not to get incapacited. I guess it was just bad luck that I've been targeted every single time beign the healer.

I haven't had much luck dodging the stun either on my shaman (on my DK, I can just Anti-Magic Shield). The best advice I can give for Rimefang is to simply not stand next to other people when you're targeted, because the damage and stun do splash to nearby targets. Other than that, if you get marked, make sure to top your tank off and (if you are able to) get some HoTs running on them.
People have told me that if you start moving as soon as you see ice missile come down, you can dodge it.

I use blink and keep running. I haven't got hit yet by the ice when I do that.
