He's the first boss encounter in Auchindoun: Mana-Tombs. He has a couple special abilities AE-knockback/damage and a spell reflect shield. The shield itself is green, but very hard to see - only last about 5 seconds.

Kommentar von Apocalipsus

The shield also damages melee attacks so better is to really stop attacking. Last time I went there shield was yellow...

NOTE: He grows stronger if someone dies.

Alright we did it with

Warrior - Priest - Warlock (me) - Hunter - Rogue.

When you first enter the room look to the right. You see that purple glowing lamp? Place your MT behind it while fighting the boss... and have someone (we had hunter) pull boss.. Warrior picks up aggro. 3-4 sunders we waited. Range dps on right side (where you first enter building) at absolutly max range. dps max range, and healer max range from tank.

Simply apply moderate DPS. Watch out for reflective shield. and you're done!

Kommentar von 15958

This is a purely shadow damage fight. Plan accordingly.

Kommentar von Deadbeat

This guy is the first, and toughest, boss in the instance.

Important points:
-AOE Shadowbolt avgs for 2k and knocksback. So tank him against the wall.
-Melee reflect/thorns shield.

Kommentar von 15289

First boss in Mana Tombs:

I thought this was a fairly easy fight (however we did have a priest for shadow protection). Basically tank him in the middle of the room and have all ranged stand at max range.

-Watch for his shadow volleys. They knockback and do some decent damage. Make sure your offhealer is watching the rest of the group and if you don't have an offhealer, have the dps bandage themselves.

-The Reflect shield can be devastating. If you are melee or magic based, STOP ATTACKING.

NOTE: Hunters can continue to Auto-shot. Physical ranged dps does not reflect back.

Other than that make sure you have shadow protection of some sort, and if you don't have that make sure you have a good healer with you.

On heroic, this guy melees for shadow damage 3.5 to 4.5k damage and he attacks fast. It is resistable, but with our tank at 150 shadow resist, we couldn't kill him. It is probably only doable with a maxed out shadow resist on the tank.

Kommentar von 26575

this guy is not hard at all, when i did him i was tanking him as a 62 warrior, we had 64 rogue, 64 hunter, 63 paladin and a 63 druid

Kommentar von 9679

We attempted him on heroic. 2x rogue, warrior, priest, paladin, everyone pvp specced. With no SR gear we were unable to kill him.(5-6 tries) 3-4k dmg in like every sec on tank. It's insane. gl with it :)

Kommentar von 22738

Heroic Mode: The boss has few hp and has the same abilities as the normal mode one. Except the shield. When the shield is up, it reflects a lot of shadow damage. So, tank and dps must NOT hit the boss during the shield which lasts 6secs. Keep thunderclup up and bring a pala/priest for shadow res buff.

We did it today with war tanking with 120 shadow res, mage arcane/frost with iceblock, rogue subtlety, pala holy and feral druid (healing).

It's better if the tank and healers stand near the wall so the knockback will not shoot you away. Blessing of salvation if possible on everyone, even healers.

A bit hard but we made it. 3 tries.

The result of two rogues, a lock, a warrior and a solo healing priest(me) in Mana Tombs Heroic. A pally could probably solo heal thanks to Blessing of Salvation, but I got aggro pretty easily.

Bring two healers, no more than one melee, or failing that around 200 SR on the tank.

Kommentar von Kresnik

Just tanked him with 150 SR fully buffed, it was tough, but dampen magic on the rest of the group helped by leaps and bounds.

Also, as of 2.1 his shield now makes him look ethereal, very obvious, easy for dps to stop before killing themselves.

Had a feral tank, one healer (a holy priest), and a rogue, hunter and mage for dps, he's really not that bad, if the dps knows to bandage themselves from time to time and it's no sweat.

Kommentar von 41310

How much SR would i need to resist most of this guys attacks?
In normal mode btw

(dont down rate just because its a question you dont know the answear to) =P

Kommentar von 49606

His damage has been nerfed slightly in 2.1

His melee is only around 2.5-3.5k and still resistable. Bringing a shaman along almost makes him trivial since grounding totem absorbs the void blasts which does the knockback (and where most groups will probably wipe due to the healers being unable to heal for 2-3 seconds).

Atleast 100 SR or a tank with 12k+ HP, 2 healers, a shaman, and a dps and you're good to go.

nurfed to death ... easily downed him in heroic with druid,hunter, offwarri,defwarri and shadowpriest.

4 or 5 times shadowbolt an then down ... lol

dropped the bow

Kommentar von 58865

Full retri pala as solo healer, worked - but not all that well.

Kommentar von slothy

Killed him with a group of 3 in normal mode,
70 Druid healer
67 hunter
70 shadow priest

pet tanked till it died, then the i (priest) tanked the rest

Kommentar von 64685

Heroic mode:
just 4 manned this boss with
Holy pala (me)
Prot pala
Warlock
Shammy

tank had 0 shadow resistance on only pala aura, we killed him on the first atempt, i went oom but only at the very end (used 1 super mana pot) we also had no deaths.
This boss is easily doable as long as everyone concentrates, make sure you all tank him with your back to the wall and get all party members to heal themselves when possible.

never 5 manned him as it was my first atempt but should be easily doable as long as every focuses.

!!!!!Also note shadow resistance is not needed!!!!!!!!

Kommentar von 62061

Any actions against this mob while he shifts into the void, (like healing) generally results in being hit by the damage as well.

Kommentar von 6569

First boss is Pandemonius a huge armored Mana Fiend, and you come to him very quickly in the instance. You get to fight him after maybe half a dozen pulls, which is really fun. He can be a difficult fight and most groups have some issues with him at first. Once you understand the fight though, it isn't that hard and is a pretty fun and challenging encounter.

Void Blast - This attack hits everyone within 30 yards for about 1500 damage and knocks them back. He does this attack in waves of 5, 1 every second for 5 seconds. As long as you are in range you will keep getting hit.

Shadow Shield - Periodically Pandemonius will glow with a green/yellow shield. This shield reflects all spells cast on him and deals 1000 damage back to all melee attackers. All spells cast while the shied is up are reflected, but DoTs cast before the shield come up are not, so it is safe to DoT him. Also ranged attacks are not reflected, so hunters can continue to attack.

In addition to his abilities, it is important to know that Pandemonius hits hard, however it is all shadow based. This means that you can greatly reduce the fights difficulty with shadow protection buffs and gear. If the tank has a lot of shadow protection gear, this fight can become very easy. Secondly, because of the way his knock back attacks work, the tank should keep him in the center of the room instead of the normal tactic of backing against a wall. If you do this the fight becomes more difficult because of the extra damage the tank will be taking.

Everyone else in the group should stay spread out around him and be ready to back off once he starts void blasting. Healers can stay at max distances and avoid being hit by it entirely. Once he blasts, everyone should wait for the 5th blast to finish and then run back in. The main thing to watch for in this fight though is his shadow shield, as party members can end up killing themselves very quickly (especially rogues or the tank) by continuing to hit him while it is up. As soon as it appears, back off and stop attacking, including the tank, until it the shield goes down. At that point allow the tank a hit or two to ensure aggro and then start attacking.

By far one of the hardest bosses I have done on any heroic. This boss hit me constantly for about 2500+ and often for 3800+. I had about 141xx armor unbuffed.

As a tank it took me a few goes to get this boss right tanking wise. Obviously the thing to do is keep thunder clap and demo shout up the whole time while using shield block when ever the cool down is up.

From a tanking point of view you are damned if you and and damned if you dont with this boss. Damned if your group stays within 30yds as the shadow bolts will knock them back and hit them for 2000+ and on clothies, thats alot. Damned if they stay 31+yds back as you will take 5 seconds of 1500+ shadow damage.

The best thing I found for our group was for me to waste cooldowns such as shield wall, when he got to 50% and use last stand aswell. Pretty much I had thunder clap the whole time with demo shout and even got the lock to put the weakness curse up. Still he was hitting me for 2500+.

However, this boss goes down damn fast. Hit him hard form the start and you wont have too many problems.

A priest healer is by far the best healer for this boss i found. As they can use their shadow protection buff and renews help alot. I had a shammie healer and while the boss went down, it required the group to work alot more! Shammies provide great healing and it does work, but for me this is one fight where I found a priest has been the best.

Kommentar von 68961

Not really a challenge on heroic at all unless you group blows. Best thing to do is take a shaman for grounding totem and a priest/paladin for SR aura. I've tanked it several times with NO SR unbuffed and the only problem I've had is noob dps killing themselves when he goes void.

Kommentar von h4rr0d

this boss has definately bugged loot table on heroic mode, i have downed him 10 times, and he dropped bow 4 times, and dagger 4 times, once the cloth shoulder, and i cant remember the other loot

also my 5 cents for strategy: shamans should keep grounding totem up all the time, not only that it will soak 1-3 of the shadowbolts boss does, but also it will soak ALL (seen it, could not believe it) of reflected spells during dark shell phase. also tell healer to be prepared that tank will get ALOT of damage, regradless of armor, as boss does pure shadow damage on meelee hits, which is not mitigated by armor (and also cannot be blocked)

noone said it so i will: the shield is no longer green, instead, boss grows transparent (as of 2.1) . boss does an emote and casts the shield (1 sec cast time), https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/spell=32358 for normal and https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/spell=38759 for heroic

Kommentar von 29237

In Heroic mode, warrior tanks should spam spell reflect.

Kommentar von Spacemilk

what happens to something like a warlock's dot when the shield goes up and one of them ticks?

do you get smoked? or is it just direct damage attacks like a shadow bolt?

thanks.

Kommentar von 75165

Having attempted this many times as a resto druid, it seems that the tank having shadow resistance is required. Mark+Priest buff was not enough sadly. Though I could heal through the damage (with over 1600+ healing) this generates far too much aggro even with the imp tranquility and subtlety talents.

If someone asks you to go to Heroic Mana tombs, ask about the tank's shadow resistance would be my advice.

Kommentar von 49056

as a prot warrior tanking him on heroic is easy,
simply what i did
i went and bought some potions (greater shadow protection potion)
i also bought some crappy greens of shadow protection, (81 unbuffed + 70 + 24 = 175) although i didnt resist all of his attacks i resisted a very low amount but the damage went from 4500 per hit to 1900 per hit.
i died nearend though cause of healer outta mana but we kiled him anyway

Kommentar von 77111

Just adding one thing to clear up confusion. Only thing to worry about is his transparent move. When he does that every attack you do, you will get damaged. 750 damage done to me as a rogue, I am not sure if it multiply based on your attack power. Long as every person understand not to attack while his transparent, fight will be smooth.

Kommentar von 53090

Pandemonius is the best way to gain Spirit Shards in Auchindoun in my opinion. When your side has the Blessing, simply run in and fight Pandemonius. He's not the toughest boss in the game and is so early on in the instance that you can finish in about 10 minutes or so. Then simply run out, reset, and repeat. You can make a LOT of spirit shards with a good group this way.

Kommentar von wayfarer86

Pandemonius does a knockback effect.

This can be easily avoided by having the group's tank face their back against the rock pillar in the middle of the room

Kommentar von 75503

I have tanked this boss non heroic on my warlock. its actually easier then a warrior imo.
all you do is bulk up Shadow Resist (easily in greens with +stam in outland) + Demon Armor for more SR and hit shadow ward... spam searing pain for added threat and the fights simple since your not taking damage from the melee shield and its all shadow based. Also your dots dmg through the magic reflect shield so you are still making threat while its up

Kommentar von 85070

Anyone know if the Dark Shell (reflect shield) can be stopped during the cast with Kick. With a 1 sec. cast I'm not even sure it's worth trying, but I'm just curious.

Kommentar von 48132

Did he get buffed in 2.2? We were able to beat him before with 70SR, 13k hp tank, and a single pally healer but we cant now....

Kommentar von Gwynne

Just downed him in heroic mode with Warlock tanking, Shadow Priest (for buff) and Mage DPS, Druid for off-healing (and buff), and Paladin healing. I was the warlock (demo specced) and had about 190 SR with felhunter out + SR gear + MoTW + shadow resist buff + Soul Link. Also, I was able to use the shield that absorbs shadow damage every 30 seconds. I had around 12k health and came close to dying a few times but was able to use my healthstone once and didn't need to use a heal pot.

If you try this, have the warlock spam Searing Pain between dots to help keep aggro.

We tried this boss twice with the druid tanking and couldn't get him down further than 35%, but it was a piece of cake once we switched it up!

Kommentar von Prinsesa

Pandemonius' attacks are all purely shadow damage, including his melee attacks.

Elemental melee attacks cannot be blocked, but they can still miss, or be dodged or parried. Armor does not reduce the damage at all, but resistances will. Attack power reducing debuffs such as Demoralizing Shout can also work.

If you're trying to tank him as a Paladin, use Shadow Resistance Aura. Devotion Aura does not work. Retribution Aura's reflected damage will cause his Void Shell damage to trigger against you, so that's a bad idea as well.

Also, do not bother casting Holy Shield, since his attacks cannot be blocked. The same goes for Blessing of Sanctuary.

If you're willing to spend some gold buying "of Shadow Protection" greens from the AH, you can trivialize this fight. Failing that, just bulk up on as much HP as possible, since that's the best way to mitigate his damage. Even as a tank, you'll want to stop autoattacking during Dark Shell.

Kommentar von 33464

(Heroic) We bypassed this very tough boss by sacrificing our tank. Have your tank strip and range-pull the boss back and to the left, while the rest of the party runs into the hallway just behind the boss' spawn point. If you stop just accross the line entering the hallway, the boss will reset (once the puller is dead) and the mobs in the hallway will not aggro. There's a metre or two clearance, at the most.

Rez the tank and continue. The next two mobs can be pulled without getting the four behind them.

Kommentar von 10238

we did him yesterday after 5 or 6 tries. (on heroic ofc)
mage, rogue, enh.sham,holy.priest, feral.dr00d.
we had no shadow res gear at all, only priesty's buff. i had to switch to healing, and it was no prob. he doesnt do much. grounding totem really conters his stuff fine, just dont nuke him when he enters shadow thingy. with just 2 dps and tank it was fine.

Kommentar von 96105

Easyest boss in the dungeon even in heroic mod.

İ killed this guy in heroic mod with 3 different groups, tanked without any resistange gear or pally to aura and all was one shot. Just tank and kill..

Be sure that you have a good healer, have around 16k healt (with kara & badge gear easy to optain) and dont attack on shield. Nothing to worry aboult..

Kommentar von Shicken

Could a shadow priest + mage duo this on normal?

Kommentar von 131305

I found that using snake trap prevents the whole group from getting the knockback spell
cuz it has a limit of targets i think. i did this twice in one fight, having only our feral druid (dps) getting knockedback and, some dead snakes.

Kommentar von Damiani

this boss is very hard on heroic, bliz should make it so you can do it without having crazy shadow resist. had a full T4 tank and couldent do it

Kommentar von 155198

This guy is great for farming spirit shards.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Does an AoE void bolt to random people in the party that does 2k.

Has a void shield that works like thorns so melee back off when his feet glow green. the sheild hits for 750.

Its all shadow damage, so if you got any, wear it.

Kommentar von Thottbot

This boss was a mystery (and partly still is) before we figured out that the void blast is not as dangerous if you stop attacking him while he has the green shield on.

Kommentar von Thottbot

One other thing people should realise is that one of the reasons a lot of groups can have trouble on this boss is the lack of DPS, and if your DPS is bad enough even 2 healers can oom on this fight.

Also, if you're finding your party is still getting shadowbolted/knocked back, its because your melee are hitting his shield, even once will do it.

Vanit (Blackrock)

Kommentar von Thottbot

Make sure you have a priest and a Warrior with Spell reflect.

Main abilities:

AoE Shadowbolt that also pushes you back. Does moderate amount of damage. (1.5-2k on non-buffed players). Priests Shadow Prot buff helps here.

Shield. When he has that shield he reflects *ALL* damage back. Spells, abilities, Melee, etc. Just have the tank spam taunt since while he is shielded he doesn't drop aggro. Everyone must stop DPS during the shield since melee seems to increase the chance he AoE shadowbolts. The only person doing anything should be healers healing the tank. The shield only lasts 10 seconds or so. Note: Dots are not reflected, so if you stack some up before he shields they will still tick away on him.

Drops some nice rewards as you all see above and is a easy to farm boss since he only has 6-8 pulls from the entrance.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I hate this boss! He causes so many wipes, Blizzard should have named him Murloc.

Kommentar von Thottbot

he does not reflect ranged damage. hunters are fine to dps through shield.

Kommentar von Thottbot

This guy can be annoying, but he isnt very difficult.

when he shields himself, stop attacking, because the more attacks you make against him then the more knockback/damaging blasts he will do to you.

we had a
69 rogue(me)
67 warrior fury spec(MT) <---he sucked
65 priest (MH)
67 shamman (enhancement)
and i dont remember shamman (enhancement)

so we were doing ok on this guy, but then our tank died at about 60%. at about 40% or so our holy priest went down, but was able to keep healing for a while. dont know when our first shammy went down but it was soon after. me and the 67 shammy killed him from about 40% tho, stop attacking during green and just chase him around dpsing and he went down when i had about 1k life left.

be sure to have a priest or lock in your group for the shadow resistance and you should do fine

Kommentar von Thottbot

how to kick it down in heroic mode?the phsical denfensive items are useless.I did't find even one item with shadow resistance,a warlock tank?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Screw you blizz for this 1 in heroic mode , it's so fuking anoying , y'd have to get a warlock just to tank him , tanking normally just isn't working , main tank kara until aran so far and he dies in seconds since there is no shadow rez . This one needs some1 with a lot SR 200+ min i'd guess , actually any1 can tank him if they got that much shadow rez since that's the only thing that it does . Damn anoying this 1 unless you got the right stuff .

Kommentar von Thottbot

Easiest way to tank this guy without many major cut backs.. .get a friendly druid to give your party GoW. Even if youve gotta pay them ;)
((Im talking about hero Pan, of course))
If you feel like it, or just have the money too, snatch a glyph of shadow warding

Kommentar von Thottbot

Just downed him on heroic tonight. you either need a tank with a lot of shadow resist gear or two healers. We did it with two healers, main healer on tank at all times, and off healer on the rest of the party including main healer. This guy is tough, probably in my opinion, the hardest boss here on heroic. We did kill Shaffar on heroic as well. Good luck to you all!

Kommentar von Thottbot

Ok anyone wanna tell me why Blizz hates me WTF i just tried this fight first time Heroic Mode prot spec warrior near full epics i got ^&*!ing pwned so fast lol

Kommentar von Thottbot

hahahaha! I OWN PANDEMONIUS! His melee damage is shadow damage...fyi, and so are ALL HIS OTHER ATTACKS...meaning if you want to down this boss hard enough get shadow resist gear. by the way, priests shadow protection buff, druids motw, and paladins shadow aura do not stack with eachother, but DO stack with your gear. as a tank that has 143 shadow resist with about 5 pieces of gear, i found this fight to be ridiculously easier if you just get some greens for shadow resist. Ive had the crappiest healers in the world and managed to down him.

BUT YOU NEED SOME GEAR WITH SHADOW RESISTANCE

P.S. Your armor has 0 value to those that are getting owned by his attacks, as does your shield not block.

Kommentar von Thottbot

This boss was a !@#$%. But with the right classes you should manage. We succeeded in owning his ass with the following classes:

*Warlock (Affliction spec)<--- DPS
*Priest (Holy spec) <--- Healer
*Warrior (Protection spec) <--- Tank
*Rogue (Sub spec) <--- DPS
*Druid (Feral Spec) <--- DPS/Back-up Tank

The shadow resistance the Warlock and Priest provided helped greatly. That Shadow Bolt AoE is what makes him so damn hard. But with shadow resistance, it makes it a lot easier. When our tank died, we simply had the feral druid go into bear form, and take his place. Be sure to have 3 sufficient DPS classes (I favor Druid and rogue)a tank, and a healer. Be sure to have your backs facing a wall, so when he does that AoE bolt, you don't get knocked out of healing range. Hope this helps.

Kommentar von Thottbot

This fight is easy bring a prot war and a feral druid to dps have the feral druid heal the shadowbolts when the need arises and have main healer spam heal the warrior and try not hit him when he void shields himself.. A free fast badge since he's fast to get to.

Have the main healer agaisnt the wall in the middle of the place for knockbacks and dps the hell out of him..

Kommentar von Thottbot

Ok, this boss is very easy, even in heroic mode.The thing is to pull him with range so the healer is ready to heal you. Then when you see it's casting dark shell(void form thingy), the tank should run away and kite him so the healer can heal him to full life. hope it helped.

Kommentar von Thottbot

65 Druid tank, 70 Pal healer, 70 Spriest. Let the tank to just that, tank. Don't hit him when he "shifts." +shadow resist is essential, doesn't matter if you have a priest or pal, they both have shadow resist buffs. spanky tanky. we were farming shards btw...

Kommentar von Thottbot

No shadow resist gear is needed, even in heroic mode. He is _not_ a gear check boss. If you are dying on this guy it means you are either

1) Killing yourself by attacking the boss when he reflects damage (when he shifts into the void). Even the tank should not be attacking when he shifts into the void (press escape twice)

2) Allowing your healer to +not_ fight with his back against the pillar in the middle of the room (or atleast a wall) so when the boss does his Knock-back magic shot it knocks your healer out of healing range of the tank

Kommentar von Thottbot

Amazing fight. We had along a feral druid tanking, my resto druid healing, a shadow priest, a warlock, and an elemental shaman. We wiped twice to this boss, but during the third go-around our priest took it upon himself to begin tanking after our druid, who took huge amounts of damage, ate dirt. Immediate change in pace. He took negligible damage, and only required HoTs to keep up. Finished Pandemonius off with no further casualties.

Kommentar von Thottbot

This guy on heroic is extremely annoying, not only is it annoying for me (resto shammy) but we had a problem when he put shield on. Tank would stop attacking id keep healing and then i'd get top threat.... wiped like 5 times... and he shadowbolted me and the rest of my party twice in a row. as in first shadow bolt and then a second consecutive one... need help

Kommentar von Thottbot

he killed our tank while the tank was pulling him to the wall...im talking about heroic btw and healer was very decently geared (mostly kara gear but i think thats ok...)and tank epics + blues

the DPS haven't even started yet (not even got in combat)
annoying

Kommentar von Thottbot

easy, i was tanking (67 warrior) 66 preist heals, 65 shadow preist, and two ret pallys (66, 67) owned him, i dont think i ever got lower than 50% life, oh and it felt good inside to spell reflect his attacks lol

Kommentar von Thottbot

ok im a lv70 lock, i have pretty good gear, and this is the important part i have nether protection.

so im a 21/40 lock, in this fight its good to have a priest of paly for the resists but not esential.

first of, im the tank :Þ i nuke like crazy and then when he shifts i drain life. yep you heard me i drain life, you ask why would i do a crazy thing like that for ;)

well ill tell you. drain life heals you fro more than you take damage when refected, but most important, thos the boss´s attacks are shadow they dont proc nether protection. however drain life will. this will then make you immune to his physical shadow attacks for the next 4 secs \o/ by which time he has gone back into normal form and you can continue nuking.

found this out when our druid tank died and it came after me

Kommentar von Thottbot

Downed him after like 5 tries with two 70 hunters and a 64 shammy. had my wolf tanking till he died then the other hunters pet (gorilla) tanked. he is immune to freezing trap. i also have drums of panic which he is also immune to. and like someone said before autoshoting while he has his shield up is safe. it was our first attempt to run the instance mostly did it cause we were bored.

Kommentar von Thottbot

can anyone tell me the real tactic on heroic mode, i damn need the totem.

Kommentar von Thottbot

For this fight on heroic, we have tank set up w/ his back against the tall, off-centered stone to prevent being knocked back, facing the doorway behind Pandemonius. ranged dps and healer stand as far back as possible, about where the group to the right of the door was before u cleared the room.

Tank 'n spank, remembering that tank should spell reflect when possible, til he voids out. U should then stop dps and have tank kinda kite him around the stone while staying in range of heals, once he unvoids bring him back to the original position. tank should thunderclap or shield bash (for wars) if healer taking aggro during his void sessions is a prob.

Quickest badge u can get, and some decent gear on his table as well.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Well this boss is damn hard on heroic but we did get him.
funnily enough our party : 2 locks (1 demo 1aff) Arms warrior(me) Priest(Healer) and Enh Shaman ( was also healing at this fight ) Demo lock tanked him with around 220-230 shadow res , coz i was just going down 2 fast ( no shadowres gear /cry). We downed him after 3rd try was quite satisfactory , unfortunately with such matchup we couldnt take further mobs coz of no CC :(
Dropped gay cloth shoulders :P

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Did it a week ago with Holy priest, druid (boomkin), rogue, fury warrior (me) and a tankadin. Only priest SR buff worked, the GoW and pallys sr-aura didn't stack and we wiped like 3 times. 4 time druid healed party and priest focused tank. Tank died at 20% and i like 2 secs after (2shotted, hitted for 6k :O on me)But the rogue went crazy dps and the druid popped moonkin and killed the wretch, dropped ugly stuff though.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Our merry band:
Fury Warrior (DPS / Off-tank) @ 66
Shadow Priest (Healing) @ 64
Destro Warlock (DPS / Crowd Control) @ 63/4
Feral Druid (DPS / Off-healing) @64
Marksman Hunter (DPS / Crowd Control / all round imbaness) @ 70
Cat Hunter's Pet (Tank) @ 69/70

The nice thing is that he is only five or so pulls into the instance. He does three things basically:
- Hits the tank with a lot of shadow damage pretty hard (off healer keeping the group topped up is a good idea here, freeing the main healer to focus on the tank)
- 2k or so AoE shadowbolt volley with small knockback (not mega often)
- Frequent damage shield which reflects all magic and melee damage (not ranged damage tho, so go go hunters :D)

We tanked him on the pet, and just burn him down. It's good to stay well inside max range, as you cannot avoid the shadowbolts and being knocked out of healing range is baaaad. Damage reflection is also bad, so pay attention for when the green shield goes up on him. He is not mega quick, so if the tank does die, kite and nuke for the last few k should work.

C

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Droped the shield for us , he is very easy :)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Actually, if you have a good warlock, you can kite him around with DOT's, we did this, the warlock actually soloed him.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

This boss is just stupid on heroic, He does all shadow damage, and hits for about 3-4k damage each swing. I was MT and was getting 4 or 5 shotted everytime. We had a resto druid, resto shammy, fire mage, and shadow priest and the two healers couldnt keep me up for very long at all, they went OOM at 80% or i would just get hit to fast for them to heal through it. We were never around long enough to have a shield hurt us much, but if you want to down this boss, i would bring at least 200 Shadow Resistance on the MT.

OMG took me and my group 5 or more times , and we finally had to get my bf to switch from his mage to his major epiced out lock. (Mage SPriest, HPriest, Prot War tanking, then Destro Lock). Most of us have epic gear so that is prolly a factor. 2nd try with his mage we got him to 8% but thenwiped 3 more times. Important facts: when he shifts into the void dont hit him. Have tank pull him to the mound in the far right corner. If u stand far enough away u wont even get hit by his aoe damage. And also i would think u do need 2 healers. (the shadow priest spammed PoH while i focused onthe tank) oh and we did have heal pots for +40 heal power which helped immensly, but as always be careful with offtanking, pulling aggro is ez.
If sum1 posted all this info b4 i did sorry for repeating it, just trying to help out and let others how we kicked this guys ass. :)

Any decently geared Affliction Warlock at lvl 66 and above can Drain Tank the Void if theres a Healer in the group....
How do I know this? I kept taking aggro from both the Prot Warrior and the Tankadin... so Warrior went DPS and Paladin healed the group... and on normal mode, he does not hit for 6K.

i hate this guy wiped 4 times in row on normal mode but couldnt find a good tank

Kommentar von Allakhazam

We attempted him on Heroic mode. I have one word to describe it.. No.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

We fought this on reg mode, resto druid healing, arms/fury war MT (me) shamy hunter mage. Whiped 1st shot cause started when not ready, took it 2nd time and shld of void dropped, Shld is soso i ended up vendering it and keeping some quest shld i had from b4. Would like to try for the boots (colloses) on heroic mode look like nice tanking stats. Working on shadow resist set to try MT heroic version. GL

11,46% drop rate.. *expletive* 28 runs, no gauntlets for me.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Ever since we figured out how to spot his stupid dmg reflect spell it's been a piece of cake. I personally have only dropped him 4 times so far, but the rest of my guildies have been farming him for Shards over the last few days and haven't died once since the first time. Group is usually as follows:

Paladin healing (me or my buddy)
Fury warrior (tanking/OT'ing)
Oomkin
Fire mage
Paladin tank (MT/OT)

Lowest I've been on mana at the end of the fight was 60% because I forgot to burn my timers, so it shouldn't be too horribly bad unless you're all maybe lvl 64. At the end of one fight I actually ended up with 96% mana left O_o Go go oomkin aura.

So far he's dropped the fist weapon, the idol, some pally gaunts and something else that I don't remember. We have yet to see the warrior shield :(

Kommentar von Allakhazam

tactics? suggestions? he just blasted us off the chart

A big horrible voidwalker with some armor on it. I'd like it if the Improved voidwalker looked like this instead of normal :)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I hate this boss we had a ele shaman @66 2 warriors 1 arms @66 and one fury @68 one shadow priest @64 and a enh sham @64. This boss is very hard that damage reflecting shield kicks @$$. We wiped 3 times the 1st time we got him to 50%, the 2nd time we got him to 15%, and the last time we got him to 80% (we pulled a few adds from behind him thanks to shadow bolt volley knock back thing). we ended up calling it quits.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Just checking - has anyone downed this guy on heroic yet, and what group / gear did you have? We tried it with:

Warrior
Mage (Fire/Arcane)
Rogue
Shadow Priest (me)
Paladin

All of us have ok kit, the warrior, paladin and shadow priest being in a guild that has cleared Karazhan, but we just couldnt do it. The main problem was healing the warrior quick enough, he is one of the main tanks in karazhan and has really good kit (can't remember if he has 10,000 or 16,000 hp). We tried with full dps straight away, and we tried with the priest helping to heal - but this guy smacks for ~4000 - 5000 melee damage every hit, plus hit knock backs, and shadow bolts.. we just couldnt do him.

What would be helpful is to hear from people who have done him, how much shadow resistance you had on the main tank etc.

This is where you wished the paladin's shadow resistance aura stacked with the priest's shadow protection buff.

Thanks for the help.

Made Mana Tomb today, he's first boss there.

Wie were 1 Warrior, 2 Rogues, a Mage and a priest. He's pretty easy if you know what to do. You can do full damage at him most of the time, but he makes a shield after some periods of time, where you have to completly stop damage. (tank too!) If the shield is down, you can start throwing damage at him again. Maybe you make a macro when the shield is up, then he's a lot easier.

Thanks to Twosostra from Die Ewige Wacht for that hint.

UPDATE 05-JUL-2021

Shadow Resistance does not seem to work on this boss. I had around 150 Shadow Resistance buffed and resisted exactly zero of the boss' melee damage when I tried to tank it and zero from the boss' Shadow Bolts. Zero partial resists and zero full resists.

If Shadow Resistance worked properly on this boss, I should have fully resisted or partially resisted at least once. Did five tries on the boss. Reported as a bug.

MT is today's daily HC and I had fun putting together an ad hoc Shadow Resistance Gear set from T1, T2 and Dungeon Set 1 pieces from Vanilla for my Rogue for use with Pandemonius.

Unfortunately, I never needed on Interlaced Shadow Jerkin from BWL so I never got it.

Bloodfang Hood: 10 SR
Nightslayer Shoulder Pads: 7 SR +5SR Argent Dawn enchant
Darkmantle Tunic: +4 SR (Set Bonus)
Nightslayer Pants: +10 SR
Darkmantle Bracers: +4 SR (Set Bonus)
Bloodfang Gloves: +10 SR
Bloodfang Belt: +10 SR
Nightslayer Boots: +7 SR
Gift Of Arthas: +10 SR (Alchemy Elixir) +
=========================================================
77 Shadow Resistance Unbuffed

Checked AH for other SR pieces and everything was gone except for a set of shadow resistance gloves. So if you are thinkin' to get SR from AH at the last moment, you'll probably find everythin' sold out.

So great that gear from the previous expansion still has some use. Compare this with Refail where everything is obsolete after a few weeks.

This guy is absolute insane on heroic. How can 4500 normal hit on the low (5.5k on high) end be normal? As a druid with decent gear we had to skip the boss with a mage aggro and using invis to come back to us. Maybe warrior or prot paladin with more block etc will have a better chance - For now its litterally not healable as a druid with 15k HP, and we even had a good geared priest.

Melee hits not being resistable either is no fun. I guess armor wont help on this guy then, since his normal hits are shadow based?
