My guild just started to venture into 25 man Naxx and we are having some problems with the MC part of the Razevious encounter.
Is there a macro or some other advise for the priests to help this.

Thanks

Where were they having issues?

To start off, both priests should be on vent and have at least 6% hit. Decide who is going to MC first and have them start the pull. Make sure you have a tank "guarding" them to ensure none of the other trainees attack the priest.

Once the pull has happened the first priest should immediately put on Bone Armor then taunt. The second priest should get control of their add and be prepared to put up bone armor and taunt when there is about 5 seconds left on the bone armor. Communication is very important at this point. If you do not communicate to one another during this phase you'll most likely wipe.

Personally I like remcing every time my spot in the rotation is up, but you should be able to get away with 2 rotations.

One tip someone once gave me was to look at the buff of the add that the other person is mcing. When there's about 5 seconds left on bone shield, I'll put up my armor and taunt. As soon as I have aggro, the other priest refreshes mc and recasts. Then he/she looks at the buffs of my add and does armor/taunt at 5 secs left.

Really cool and simple strat which doesn't require any voice com or fancy addons. It can be done with the default Blizzard UI even. Also saves the trouble of using an ot to tank the add or mc breaking early

Oh and don't use druid or shadow res buffs during the fight. Using mind soothe on the adds and boping the first priest on pull is useful.

No hit is required for mcing the adds. That's outdated info.

The understudies are level 82, thus requiring a 6% hit rating to ensure you never get resisted/miss the MC. I haven't been able to find any other information that states otherwise.

They aren't like normal mobs, mc always lands, unless there was shadow res. It has been that way since the beta.

For getting started on the encounter, what helped our priests initially.

Make sure everyone in the raid is in front of the MC'ing Priests, and in MC range which is 20 yards i think.
May sound like a silly change, but till you get the hang of it Rav running behind the priests causes alot of MC breaks.

Range and line of sight MC breaks, are far worse than 0% hit or the random MC breaks.

Once the Priests get more comfortable with the encounter, having more space between Rav and your ranged dps is a better setup.

Another thing that can help a bit if you have some skilled hunters. Have everyone stay under your hunters on the threat, till they have used their Feign death. Yes the encounter will take alot longer but the Feign death gives you a bit more control on some early MC breaks.

Vent is not really required for this fight if the priests are paying attention and are close to hitcap the 6% previously mentioned.

Require all raid members to download DBM, its not just for tanks. works wonders for this fight as it will display a warning when boneshield and taunt are about to wear off. when the warning bar moves to the lower center of my screen, i take that as my cue to start the Global Cooldown on Boneshield and then taunt asap.

If you raid with a boomkin, you can also have that person be responsibel for keeping the hitrating debuff on targets that are going to be MC...that can get a little bit annoying though.

One other thing is that if your guild runs three tanks for 25m content, have on of the tanks on the faaaaaaar side of the circle. he/she can blow everything and *maybe* eat one or two shots...I survived as an undergeared dk tank b/c i had IBF and UBA up and blew em both.
