Grim Batol and Curses

Didn’t they recently change this dungeon so that the curses are less deadly? I haven’t done it in a few weeks and honestly, I’m afraid to. It all goes downhill after second boss. This dungeon took the longest to get a 10 done and timed.

Can Grim be done with less than a full group of curse dispellers?

I’ve timed GB 10 on three healers, two of which didn’t have a curse dispel (resto shaman, mistweaver and disc). These were all pugged, and even if there was a decurse in the group (i.e., dps shaman, mage, druid, evoker present) it doesn’t mean the DPS even used it during the key.

Disc’s burst aoe healing profile handles the curses in GB with ease, even in a +10. Mind Blast/Mindbender + Radiance + Penance easily can handle the curses the dungeon throws at you.

One caveat to mention: the curses in GB are way harder to handle with this week’s m+ affix (Devour). Disc (and any non-curse dispeller) will struggle to heal through both the curse and the affix if there’s a bad overlap. That said, I still timed a GB 10 as disc yesterday. A handful of deaths happened due to the curse+affix combo, but it was otherwise a smooth run.

You have to bring at least 2 curse removals in this dungeon.
