Foren is the final boss of the first wing of the Titan's Siege Halls. Though he is mainly a fire boss, he uses a physical attack and a shadow attack as well.

Strategy
Everyone stay in melee. When he casts Flame Release, everyone must immediately go into ranged. It is a good idea to stay in a group even while moving to ranged, and moving together to dodge the lava cracks. This way, if Flame Instability hits while the group is in ranged, the healers can heal the raid to keep them up more easily. A druid can use Barkskin right before Flame Instability is to hit, then use Tranquility and Wild Growth to heal the raid. Priests can summon Lightwells for players to click on while using Holy Nova to further heal, Shamans can use Chain Heal, Healing Stream Totem and Healing Rain (unreleased ability. Available in cataclysm), while Paladins can heal the tank, who will need a lot more healing than others.

If the imps spawn, the targeted player must kite the unstable fel imp while everyone nukes it (it has a lot of hp) to avoid high raid damage. After the unstable imp is dead, focus on the Flaming fel Imp. These will spawn more rapidly throughout the fight, as they will spawn from dead players' corpses/bones as well.

Another problem is the frequent threat reset from pummel. The target will take a lot of damage, and will require a lot of healing. If Flame Release is on at the same time, the target likely won't survive. The moment pummel ends, the tank must immediately taunt, and will then require healing because of Shadow Blast.
