The Shattered Halls Starter strategy

[johnson]

Stolen from: MPSGames


5man instance for lvl 70.

This instance has three boss encounters.


Map :


Grand Warlock Nethekurse :

Strategy :

When you approach Grand Warlock Nethekurse, he will have 3 non-elite Fel Converts standing in front of him.
After the 3rd of these are killed (the order does not matter), Nethekurse will attack the group.

Throughout the fight, he will place down 'void zones' that will begin to do 1000 Shadow damage per second after 1 second of being placed.
Moving out of these as soon as possible is advisable for everyone including the tank.

He will also Death Coil random people which will do 2000 Shadow damage to the person hit, fear them for 4 seconds, and heal Nethekurse (presumably for 2000 HP).

At around 20% HP, Nethekurse will engage his 'Dark Spin' ability, in which he will begin to hit anyone directly around him for 2000 Physical damage and spit out Shadowbolts at random people in the group in rapid succession.
The Shadowbolts hit for around 1500 Shadow Damage, and it is best to burn his remaining HP as quick as possible to limit deaths and a possible wipe.

At 20% nuke him ASAP.

Warbringer O'mrogg :

O'mrogg is a two headed ogre boss fight with a twist, he is immune to taunt and regularly does an aggro dump.
Everyone should spread out in this fight and watch their aggro management, O'mrogg does a powerful blast wave AOE that hits for around 2k which can be lethal,
ontop of that he also does an AOE fear, you will regularly find your tank loose aggro in this fight and so other classes will have to tank him.

Strategie :

Thunderclap – AoE deals 800-1000 nature damage, leaves behind a Magic debuff Attack speed and Movement speed reduced by 35%.

Blast Wave/Burning Maul – When O’mrogg’s maul begins burning he deals about 1000 fire damage in melee and sets up to cast his Blast Wave which deals 2500-3000, he will do a second Blast Wave a few seconds later.

AoE Fear – Magic, does a shout and fears all in earshot.

Warbringer O’mrogg’s room is big and it is big for a reason, to give us room to spread out and try to avoid his Fear and Blast Waves.
We want him tanked near the center of his room, O’mrogg’s Thunderclap debuff should be removed often from our tank. As for his AoE fear, looks to have about 40 yard range so it can be avoided by some classes.
O’mrogg’s big nasty is his Blast Wave he will cast back to back for almost 6000 damage total, we can anticipate his Blast Wave when his maul begins to burn and he melees for fire damage.
At that point non tank melee has a few second window to get away from him in order to avoid the first Blast Wave, a few seconds after his first he will cast a second.

He is not a difficult encounter, as long as we keep our tank’s health happy through the Blast Waves.

Kargath Bladefist :

Bladefist is the final boss of The Shattered Halls.

Bladefist is a fairly simple fight but none the less, still has some key points to remember

-He hits plate for about 700, which is fairly weak
-He does no spell damage so Amplify Magic is a great help in this fight
-Every few seconds he'll spawn a non-elite add which runs down the hallway, what kind of mob the add is is random but they have little health and can be dps'd down quickly
-Every 35 seconds (?) Kargath will do a blade dance where he hits dashes at high speed between random targets dealing 1k cleave damage with a little aoe.

To take him down you can deal with the adds, ignore them and do straight DPS to Bladefist, or kill the adds as they come, it is important everyone spreads out and staying away from the center because the Blade Dance can be a killer if ignored.
He has alot of health, but is a fairly simple encounter.
