He's the ultimate burn fight for an extra sleeper key

Goog

i think something may have gotten broken with the recent patch regarding NPC procs

VS seems to proc his lifetap much, much more often, and i don't recall any patch notes mentioning any changes about him aside from the VSR change

There was a pending update to Sontalak that was activated when another perl issue in westwastes was hotfixed.

Patch notes:
Sontalak now procs Char and Molten Breath. Previously he would cast Molten Breath on a timer.

Here is one of the threads discussing it:

well i guess this intended after reading above post but ill post logs anyway... 255 FR, In the second attempt u can see I took a burst of 4 AEs within 8 seconds for 2600dmg and over 1 min took over 5k dmg.

Thanks for the quick reply, From reading through that thread it appears to be as you say, except that the AE seems to be point blank when procced (should be targeted on the tank) and also seems to be proccing consistently at a much higher rate than the al'kabor logs, in multiple instances it was very rapid as you can see in the fraps posted above.(4-5 times in a few seconds consistently rather than twice in a few seconds sporadically). Perhaps just some fine tuning is needed in the % chance to proc.
Unrelated to the central issue, but is his fear also changed? seems to be much less chance to resist (even with 255 MR) and also full durations each time. It should be noted that on a sont fight, a full duration fear is nearly as long as the encounter itself.

judging from this video, they were either resisting this a lot more (the point of view in this video doesn't appear to even be in a bard group), or molten breath is supposed to be at a much lower proc rate than it currently is
