Moroes is the gatekeeper mob for Karazhan. It is fairly difficult. Practice and experience will be the key to taking him out.

Moroes is found in the Dining Hall. He will have 4 adds with him that are randomly selected. It is not necessary to kill all 4 before Moroes, but it is advisable to kill as many as possible and shackle the rest. Current strategy is to kill at least 2 and at most 3 of the adds and the order of which they are killed is determined prior to the fight.

The males are usually melee classes while the females are usually casters. The usual strategy is to shackle the male and kill the females first. If your raid lacks priests, have a Paladin Turn Undead, a Hunter Frost Trap, or an off tank handle the adds.

The fight will consist of 4 of these 6 adds arranged in (my) preferred kill order:
Lady Catriona Von’Indi: Holy Priest
Lord Robin Daris: Mortal Strike Warrior (this guy can single handedly wipe the party if left unchecked)
Baroness Dorothea Milstipe: Shadow Priest
Lady Keira Berrybuck: Holy Paladin
Baron Rafe Dreuger: Protection/Retribution Paladin
Lord Crispin Ference: Protection Warrior

Moroes is not a timed fight in the traditional (enrage) sense. However, he does have the ability Garotte where it will put a 500 physical damage BLEED dot on a player that lasts for 5 minutes. This can be removed with Stoneform, Luffa, Divine Shield, Ice Block, or dying. Typically, a raid can sustain up to around 3 bleeders after which the healers will start to feel the strain. It is important to kill Moroes before the bleeding overwhelms the healers.

Moroes will occasionally vanish during the fight. When it reappears it will return to player with the highest aggro. Moroes himself is not exceptionally difficult, but the combined effort of controlling his adds within a short period of time and the increasing urgency of players bleeding all over the carpet makes this fight very intense.

Moroes will enrage when its health falls below 30% and this ability cannot be tranquilized.

I as a rogue have kept the lufa in my bank since i love using it while dueling warriors ! I knew it would come handy one day :)

His blind can be dispelld.
Frostmage's Water Elemental ranged Frost nova is great for pulling.
Had the tank and 2 priests standing at my position in front of the boss and in 30m range to him an both near adds. Got elemental and used frostnove same second when tank shooted the boss, all 4 adds in frostnova, boss running to the tank. Priests have 8 sec to cage the adds, hunter to pull into trap and offtank to get to his add and gain aggro.

Kommentar von 22009

Btw: DON'T FEAR THE ADDS! =D
They can fear out of the room and the fight will reset.

Kommentar von 21912

On our first atempt so far we had 2 priests and 2 shadowpriests so we shackled all the adds.. worked really well but then MT got blind/gouged etc and we wiped.. but with alittle more practise i think that will be a rather good way of killing him

Kommentar von annick

His blind is a 'poison' effect.

Kommentar von darkreigner

Dwarf rogue ftw! Stoneform is the best racial for alliance since it can be used in so many situations. Dwarf tanks can SF out of blind and garrote, so they will be the better tanks in terms of sustainability for this fight.

Kommentar von 12515

Noticed this yesterday: One of our mages tried Detect Magic on Moroes and we noticed that he was buffed with Blessing of Might. This buff wasn't on him on pull, so I believe that his adds actually buff him/other adds when not in CC'd. A bit after vanish this buff was always re-applied. Note that vanish will also wipe all debuffs on him.

So if you have time, apply Detect Magic to see buffs and dispel them.

Kommentar von 24335

Would cleaning with the power of lemon work for the bleed ?

https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=5951

Kommentar von 15939

Depending on the particular group of adds you get, its not a bad idea to use amplify magic on the raid. Effectively the healers gain an extra +240 healing (if the mage buffing doesn't have the magic attunement talent.) The extra healing makes a noticeable difference in keeping the garrote in check.

The only danger of course is the offensive caster adds, but they're generally removed from the equation quickly enough to be worth it.

Kommentar von 27741

Regarding the bleed effect from the Garrote...
is a good thing, u get it by a quest from Hansel @ Seering
Gorge flight path with the quest
"Incendosaurs whateverosaurs..."
(just kill 20 of those and youre done, quest is like lvl 49.
Only risk is that you have gotten it before but vendored it
(icon looks like woolcloth ;) )

Kommentar von 17601

A good geared tank can prevent gouge by dodging, parrying etc.

We use a rogue or 2 on the boss next high on aggro list after the tank. So they are ready to evasion tank when the MT gets gouged. When tank gets it back, the rogue used evasion, vanishes to prevent one-shot death on next gouge.

Kommentar von 16731

you can COMPLETELY remove the gouge issue from the fight. anyone who has played a rogue knows that gouge is a frontal attack, so whoever is tanking morose turns as far as they can sideways while still being able to attack and they wont be gouged.

Kommentar von ChillingOut

A small tip!

If it looks like your raid is going to wipe, you can run out of Moroes room and he will reset normally as soon as you are in the next room. He did chase our tank down though and kill him, then another member ran into the ghost patrols out there, but oh well :)

If you don't all want to wipe and save a bit of cash and some buffs, run out of his room and reset him.

Kommentar von Gull

You can also Slow Moroes, not really mana efficient, but it does help if your healers are getting low on mana.

Kommentar von s3bbz0r

Moroes needs to be killed if you want to do the Stage event. Sadly we didn't know in the raid. :(

Kommentar von 32704

I know this seems to be a stupid question but would Shadowstep or even Cheat Death help with Garrote, Shadowstep maybe to reduce aggro and Cheat Death well to i guess to cheat death.....
All responses are welcome..Thank you.

Kommentar von 29707

I have spent some time theorycrafting on this fight to try and help, and there are alot of strategies that can potentially help.

Heres something that should help the priests. There is a function called /focus. you target your ghost you shackle and type /focus. Then set up a macro /cast shackle undead. This way you can always shackle your ghost without having to ever change target. You can do a shackle inbetween heals on a tank.

This is one however I have not tested so please refute this if you have tried, Limited Invulnerability Potions (https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/spell=3175) could be used as a preventative measure to stop garrotes

Every time Moroes vanishes, it means hes going to garrote someone when he reappears. So while he is vanished a raid uses these potions and they are then invulnerable to the garrote (immune). Only drawback is that this shares a cool down with mana potions on the other hand you only have 3 to 4 garrotes per fight and this would relieve healers. Again though this is all theory, if anyone tests this and can tell me if it works tell me. A raid would have to know how long he is vanished though to know to do this, since it only lasts 6 seconds.

Kommentar von 8199

I've been told you can have melee tank the caster adds because the do very little melee damage and can be locked down by stuns or interrupts. The sword and board warriros can then be OT during the fight since he is doing relatively little damage. It is also important to note HP levels. The warriors have a lot moe HP than the other classes so often they are best to CC just to save time as the garrotes will get to you after time.

Kommentar von 35237

This is a simple fight that requires quick reactions from your CC classes.

The MT makes the pull by shooting one of his adds. They then move Moroes to the end of one of the tables where he is tanked. Healers and ranged dps stands in the middle of the table. We use 2 priests with /focus macros to keep 2 of the adds (the prot tank, dps warrior, or holy paladin) shackled the entire fight. A hunter pulls one of the caster adds (usually the holy priest) into a trap. I (a rogue) pulls the shadow priest or other add to a feral druid in bear form. We use a druid like this because the adds do a fair amount of dmg to leather and healers need all the mana they can get for the garrotes later.

The add I pulled to the druid is killed 1st, followed by the hunter CC'd add. After that dps is focused on Moroes. The feral druid (wearing healing gear before the fight starts) switches out of form and is in charge of healing the people that get garroted with mainly hots and small heals.

By this time Moroes has usually vanished once and the tanks have had plenty of time to both generate a fair amount of aggro. From there dps opens up on Moroes as hard as it can and it's a race to kill Moroes before the garrotes kill us.

We also use a shaman in the dps group for bloodlust and to quickly dispel the blind (as an above poster said, your MT can get gouged and the OT can be blinded in rapid succession, this usually ends in a wipe).

Some tips that help my raid bring down Moroes.

1) Why find out that the most serious problem was that our healers get out of mana near the end of the fight even thought we have a restoration shaman using mana tide and all healers using mana pots when they have cd.so its good if you manage to kill the two adds (we always keep 2 adds sacled tiil the end) without healers spend too mauch mana..so they have it for later when people start bleeding..3 dps class...a frost mage , a rogue using crippling poisons and a hunter can be able to kill the two add you will select to kill first kite them around the middle table without needed to much heal from healers..

2) About the bleeding thing that actually is the hardest thing in this fight...we found a nice trick that work well since the only one that can remove it in our raid was a frost mage.(we are horde so unfortuntly no stoneform for us) so ...ppl get bleeding no matter what class they are..healer range dps etc..all gather near moroes..i mean near the tank..and with our two restoration shamans spam! chain healing all of them take an amount of heal good enough so they dont die..the two priest we have keep always the two adds sacled and they renew ppl bleeding..and ofcourse renew in the tank actually this system with chain healings and renews works very well..

The whole raid was ...MT,OT,two priest,two restoration shamans,hunter rogue,frost mage,elementary shaman...if you see we only have 4 dps in the raid but with the chain healings when ppl gather around main tank we can hold on and finish the battle with 5 or even six ppl bleeding...

Kommentar von 16487

As someone has mentioned before, the focus macro will make keeping your mob shackled a lot easier. A LOT easier.

/cast Shackle Undead

Target the mob you want to focus, and type /focus.

Using the macro will cause you to shackle without losing your healing target and will save a lot of time in that respect. Just thought that this all deserved a second mention.

Kommentar von SilverKnight

It takes some coordination to deal with Moroes, because he comes with 4 guests, which vary each raid. You need to be ready with a plan of what you will do with each guest, and people have to work together, particularly if a crowd control measure slips somehow.

Kommentar von 12394

One tip for shackling Priests who go low on mana. Be careful when using Shadowfiend, because when Moroes vanishes our "smart" pet will go attack the shackled mob (they stop if you reshackle it).

So, remember to keep an eye on your shackled target if you have to use your Shadowfiend. Or don't use it at all if you don't feel confident enough (e.g. when learning the encounter).

Tanked Moroes for my first time recently, and was surprised to see I was taking Critical Hits of 5k-6k (regular hits were around 3-4k).

My defense is ~510 and I was still being critically hit. I understood that staying over 490 def. negated the chance of being hit by a crit - is this simply an incorrect assumption (Is this where 'Resilience' gear would come in helpful)? Is this the 'normal' amount of damage tanks can expect to take from Moroes (I had 12.5k health / 14k armor) ?

Thanks in advance for any helpful advice!

Depending on which u get we go for the healer first...

Crippling Poison on rogue offhand....apply....follow...stunlock and dps while the locks and mages wtfpwn her down.....same again for the one being OT'd.......if they go down super fast....we take a third to be safe, then go crazy.

On the odd occasion we have a shadow priest in place of one of the locks or mages.....3rd shackle instead of OT, still take down the 3rd depending on MT's threat / how quickly the first 2 go down. GG

it seems that all of Moroes's adds are related to someone in Darkshire, Check the individual add names to check. This is perhaps because the Villagers of Darkshire would often visit Medivh before he went mad

Having a Shaman drop a poison cleansing totem where Moroes is being tanked takes care of the blind.

Kommentar von Darkicon

Our setup (Second KZ group):

2 Priests (1 Holy, 1 Shadow)
1 Shaman (Elemental)
2 Druids (1 Feral, 1 Restoration)
2 Mages (1 Fire, 1 Frost)
2 Warriors (Both Prot)
1 Hunter (Marksman)

Priests Shackle Undead the Shadow Priest and Ret Pally, Hunter Ice Trapped MS Warrior. MT tanked Holy Priest while OT tanked Moroes. Burned down the Holy Priest. MT switched to Moroes, got good aggro, then everyone unloaded on Moroes. Healed through Garrotes. MH died because he was low on health and got Garroted, BRed him. Burned down Moroes the rest of the way.

Moroes is in my opinion the hardest fight, and is a big gear check.

Priests must stay on their toes for Shackling. The MS Warrior must be stopped from running around, he will 1 shot clothies and most leathers. I do not suggest killing the MS Warrior as he does have 20,000 hp more than the others, and hits very hard. In the time it takes to burn him down another 20,000 hp, your MH might be getting Garroted.

Can anyone confirm whether Moroes is an optional boss or not? We'd like to skip him and grind straight to the Opera Event if possible, and have heard about other guilds doing this, but both Wowhead and Wowwiki report that Moroes must be killed in order for Barnes to start the Opera Event. Is this true?

Anyone have any thoughts on the garrote targeting. I have been told that it is random but I am doubtful as I have noticed the same targets getting hit in similar order in consecutive attempts. I have across 4 Moroes fights been garroted twice in a row every time.

(PS I am a dwarf hunter so it could be dps related. Also I got out of the first one with stone form.

Kommentar von 58516

Moroes' adds are vulnerable to Curse of Tongues, a handy technique to keep the healers busy and give you more time to interrupt.

Kommentar von 28229

If your tanks are warriors a useful strategy to deal with the Garrotes is to have them Intervene the healers afte each Vanish. While healers can sustains DPS members with Garrote, it is much more difficult to sustain themselves. With Intervene up, your tanks will absorb any Garrotes meant for the healers and will be healed anyway, thus reducing strain. To do this, simply have your tanks use an Intervene macro that is keyed to each of your healers and use it as soon as Moroes Vanishes. This does add a little more stress on your tanks but can save the encounter.

Kommentar von bathazar

i had a semi pick up group for kara last night.. not the best group but then again not the worst... but we got moroes down to 1% health 2 times... and we wiped both... it was rediculous

Kommentar von Bronnix

We have our MT engage the fight and pull Moroes all the way left, we have a lock set up his imp in the spot. We have Baroness Millstipe Shackled until after we down Moroes. We have ALL Dps classes on the holy priest/pally and Dps them down ASAP! We fear the warriors, and trap the ret pally. Take down the holy priest/pally first, then the ret pally, then warriors, then we take down Moroes, then Baroness Millstipe. Moroes is a difficult fight. We have MT get as much aggro as possible and have our main healer stay with him and only him. Cross healers heal the rest of the raid while they down adds. Moroes vanishes every once in a while and casts a nasty nasty nasty garrote on a random raid members. If it is casted on a healer we get a pally to BoP them to remove a garrote, anyone else we just consistently have a HoT on them. Moroes also gouges randomly, but most of the time our MT resists it, in the case he doesnt resist it he normally goes to the person with 2nd aggro, so try and have your OT get 2nd aggro. After you down Moroes, get a little mana regen going and keep Millstipe shackled. When you got some mana just rip Millstipe apart. Have a priest just devoted to shackle, dont have him Dps any mobs just consistently recasting shackle. Difficult fight, stay focused, Good luck with the garrotes.

Kommentar von Darkicon

I have found the best way to kill Moroes, if you have 2 priests and a hunter is to use this strategy.

Shackle Undead both the MS Warrior and the Prot Warrior, Ice Trap the Holy Priest. Have a rogue evasion tank the Shadow Priest and just burn her down as fast as you can, then burn down the Holy Priest and have the other priest Shackle Undead the Holy Priest, both should go down fast. This leaves you with 2 adds and 3 CCs just incase any problems arise later on.

Have your MT and OT build threat on Moroes while everyone DPS's down the 2 adds, once both are dead, everybody unload on Moroes, BUT do not pass the OT in threat. If a healer gets Garroted and you have a paladin, have him use Blessing of Protection on him/her, mages can just Ice Block out of it. If a priest gets Garroted and it cannot be dispelled and for some reason that priest dies, have your hunter take over CCing his/her add. Just burn Moroes at this point and keep extra heals on Garroted people.

I know what you're thinking, don't do it. Do not have a paladin fear an add. This is bad, we tried this. If the add gets feared out of the room, Moroes will reset. This happened to us when Moroes was at 15% and we were pissed.

As noted on all of the wowhead pages for Moroes' party members, the guests are all related to npc's in Darkshire/Duskwood.

He also uses... Deadly Throw?

We were having a long fight due to having lost a couple dps to the adds, and we were slowly burning him down. At the 10 minute mark, he hit our tank with a Deadly Throw for 5.7k damage, which pretty much killed him. If that wasn't strange enough, the tank was in melee with Moroes at the time. He was down to only around 2-3% by then, so we killed him before we got to see him use it more. After the fight, the tank looked over his combat log, and saw that Moroes had indeed hit him with Deadly Throw.

The only explanation I can think of is that he might actually have some sort of timer, and when it expires, he starts throwing.

Kommentar von Kathucka

Welcome to Dinner!

Moroes is the first real test of raiders. This is a dynamic, chaotic fight that requires skilled execution by all participants. It's also a gear check, especially on the damage-dealers. A single player that doesn't execute his role well can make this fight impossible to win. This fight can be a rude awakening to the difficulty of Burning Crusade raids. New raiders that have trouble here can get excellent practice and gear from running heroic-difficulty dungeons before returning and trying this again.

Moroes is a required boss. Killing him opens the Opera event and stops respawns of a large amount of trash on the way to Maiden of Virtue.

The key to this fight is all in the planning. All of the dinner guests must be managed in some way to keep them from killing the healers and damage-dealers. Every dinner guest will be shackled, trapped, off-tanked, or nuked. Each guest must be assigned to a player. The kill order must be dictated in advance. The plan must be strictly followed during the fight.

Raid Composition

Two tanks. Paladin tanks are best suited to the task, with Cleanse, Turn Undead, Blessing of Sacrifice, and Blessing of Protection.
Two or three healers. Priests are most useful for their Shackle Undead and Renew abilities. Paladins are also useful, as noted above.
Five or six damage-dealers. Shadow priests are useful, as noted above. Damage dealers that can off-tank are also useful.

The Basic Plan

Given the dynamic composition of both raid groups and the dinner party, there can be no fixed strategy. The plan must be concocted by the raid leader upon reaching this boss.

Two tanks maintain the highest threat on Moroes at all times. When Moroes gouges one, he'll start hitting the other, who will need healing.

Three of the dinner guests must be shackled, trapped, or off-tanked immediately, while the fourth one is quickly killed. The remaining guests are killed, one at a time, until all remaining guests are shackled (except possibly the protection warrior). At that point, Moroes is killed. Once he is down, the raid runs out of the room or just kills the remaining dinner guests.

Crowd Control

Shackle Undead (priest) is the best crowd control, as it can be maintained the whole fight. It should be used on dinner guests that can dispel/cleanse other traps and shackles and maintained the whole fight. The macros mentioned earlier in this page help immensely in this. Shackle Undead should be re-cast every 10 seconds to make sure that it never breaks.

Freezing Trap (hunter) can be chained to keep a dinner guest under control for a long time. However, it is not ideal, as the hunter must move around, thus losing much of his damage output. Also, it can't be re-applied easily if it breaks early, and it completely stops working if the hunter is stunned or unable to maintain threat. Finally, any dinner guest able to cast spells will do so when it is running from one trap to the next. This can break shackles and get your priest killed. Since killing the first guest quickly is so important, consider off-tanking instead of trapping, to free up the hunter to deal damage. Trapped targets should be killed before killing Moroes.

Turn Undead (paladin) can be maintained for 20 out of every 30 seconds and can't be re-applied if it breaks. It is most useful in emergencies when a trapped/shackled dinner guest gets loose. It can also be used on an off-tanked guest to relieve pressure on the off-tank. Keep away from the doors of the room when doing this, to avoid resetting the encounter.

Off-Tanking (any tank) is viable, because one of the tanks will take hits from Moroes only when the other tank is gouged or blinded. This off-tank can control one or even two dinner guests. The off-tank will require intense healing when he has Moroes.

Kommentar von Kathucka

(continued...)

The Dinner Guests

The holy paladin is the most disruptive dinner guest, with the ability to cleanse crowd-control, heal, and make herself invulnerable with divine protection. Since she has armor, she is the top priority for shackling, and should indeed be shackled the whole fight. If she's around and you don't have a priest, expect a really tough fight. Mass dispel can get rid of divine protection, if required.

The holy priest is also extremely disruptive, with the abilities to dispel crowd-control and to heal. She also has a damaging Holy Fire attack. She should be shackled the whole fight. If killing her is necessary, interrupt her casts, use a pet to tank her, and be prepared to re-apply shackles and Turn Undead on the other dinner guests that get loose.

The shadow priest is directly very dangerous, with an damaging Mind Flay, Mana Burn, and Shadow Word: Pain. The Mana Burn can use up a healer's entire mana pool, ruining the attempt instantly. She should not be controlled, but must be burnt down first and as quickly as possible, generally untanked. A hunter or warlock pet can tank, if available. Blow all damage-dealing cooldowns right at the beginning of the fight, to speed this up. Her spell-casts should be interrupted and silenced. Shamans should keep a grounding totem down near her. Her Shadow Word: Pain should be dispelled/cleansed by a priest/paladin.

The protection warrior should be grabbed by the off-tank early, to give him enough rage to build threat on Moroes. His disarm is annoying, and it may be a good idea to control him with Turn Undead or Freezing Trap after one or two other dinner guests are down and the off-tank has enough rage. He doesn't do a lot of damage and he can take a long time to kill, so it's not a good idea to kill him before Moroes.

The arms warrior has a very damaging Mortal Strike and Whirlwind. He can, however, be safely chain-trapped or off-tanked, so long as he doesn't run through any crowds. He should eventually be tanked and killed.

The retribution paladin has Hammer of Justice (a stun on his main target) Blessing of Might, and Cleanse. He does not appear to cast the Cleanse much. Chain-trapping him is possible, but difficult, as he will stun the hunter and take off after a healer. Off-tanking is also risky, since when he uses Hammer of Justice at the same time as Moroes uses Gouge, Moroes will kill a healer. Shamans/priests/mages should purge/dispel/spellsteal all the monsters in this fight to get rid of the blessing, especially on Moroes. Priests/paladins should dispel/cleanse the Hammer of Justice stun off of whoever gets it. He must be tanked before killing.

Dealing with Gouge

Make sure that the two tanks maintain higher threat than anyone else in the raid, to keep Moroes off of everyone else. Anyone who generates higher threat than the second tank will be killed immediately when the gouge hits.

Paladin tanks can cast Blessing of Sacrifice on the other tank to break the gouge effect quickly. Warriors, if they're really quick, can use Intervene to pick up a garrote, which will also break the gouge effect.

When one tank is gouged, that tank should announce the gouge, and healers need to immediately switch to the other tank.

Dealing with Garrote

Paladins use Divine Protection on themselves if they get garrotted. They save their Blessing of Protection for any priests that get garroted (to maintain shackles). Garrote on a tank is a good thing, as it breaks the Gouge stun. Warrior tanks can attempt to catch the Garrote with Intervene after a Vanish. Mages and dwarves use Ice Block and Stoneform to get rid of it from themselves. Everyone else gets a heal-over-time when garroted.

Otherwise, the best way to deal with Garrote is simply to kill Moroes before he can apply it too many times. This is the reason that this fight is a DPS gear check.

Garrotes are removed when Moroes is defeated.

Dealing With Blind

Having one tank blinded while another tank is gouged generally leads to a wipe as Moroes will then attack a healer. Don't let this happen.

Blind appears to hit whoever is closest to Moroes. A melee damage-dealer should try to eat it by getting as close as possible, essentially overlapping Moroes. Shamans, paladins, and druids need to do what they can to dispel the (poison effect) Blind quickly, before a Gouge hits.

Wiping

Unless Moroes is almost dead, this fight is lost when one of the tanks or priests dies. Run out of the room when this happens. The fight will reset as soon as one of the dinner guests leaves the room. Unfortunately, this doesn't clear Garrote.

If the MT is gouged when he is tanking moroes and 1 add at the same time, will the add also drop aggro if the for the gouge duriation ?
And if it dosent drop aggro will its attack break the gouge?

Because if it does then all you need to do is leave one add and keep a ranged class 2nd on aggro and no OT is needed at moroes

Kommentar von 45431

Moroes can be defeated with a single tank.

As a feral druid I have been able to do this by simply tanking him with my rear to him. When you first engage him hit him with as much burst threat as you can(maul/mangle/lacerate for a druid) and then turn away from him. This will briefly give you enough threat to stay above the healers. Assuming you or someone in your group is using a timer of some sort, when five seconds are left before vanish you can turn around and face him and hit him as much as you can before he vanishes. Repeat this every time he vanishes. He may still gouge you in these 5 seconds, but he will vanish before he kills someone.

Moroes caster adds do not require a tank as they can be stunlocked but if you do have another high armor dps class in the group that can help. His melee should be shackled or trapped.

When your party has eliminated the adds you need to kill everyone can be on Moroes. If the tank has his sound turned up he should be able to hear when Moroes gouges someone, which will give him a few seconds to turn around, generate some threat, then turn back around. Do this with the above strategy and you should have enough threat to last you the whole fight.

As a side note, if Moroes garrotes the main tank he can turn around and start fighting him with his face to him. Garrote will remove his gouge fast enough for the tank to reaquire Moroes before he goes and kills someone.

This strategy is tough on your healers as the only mitigation here is the tank's armor, making it an ideal strategy for a feral druid. You cannot dodge, block, or parry unless you're facing your enemy. (Although it makes it a little tougher on your healers freeing that extra spot would allow you another healer, or a dps to complete the encounter faster.)

FWIW, the PVP trinket will not remove blind.

Pardon my ignorance as I've only done this fight once. Is a felhunter's Paranoia any good against Moroes?

Kommentar von 149126

Hey just a quick question....does Resilliance help with garrote? Like decreasing the amount the garrote ticks for each time? Thanks. =D

Kommentar von Therulnig

its a good idea for the main tank to turn his back to Moroes if the offtank gets Blind. This stops a Gouge>Blind>kill a healer situation.

Fight is really about add control other than that, Moroes himself only becoming a problem if allowed to stack garrote on most of the raid or if your tanks/healers cant handle his soft enrage.

Shackles make this encounter LOLEASY. In the absence of shackles (we've cleared kara with no priests before..not fun but possible) the encounter becomes a lot more taxing and depends a lot more on the raid's abilities (Hunter's properly specced for trapping, plate/bear DPS offtanks, Kiting, etc).

This raid-ability check (DPS'ers not getting to just stand there and shoot something) is why this is typically the first "hard" fight of kara, being that the boss before and the boss after are considered much easier to learn.

Kommentar von b0uncer

Moroes <Tower Steward> is Karazhan's steward, found tending to guests in the Banquet Hall in Karazhan. Along with four special invited patrons, Moroes fights any uninvited guests to the death. Moroes is the second boss and the first mandatory boss found in this raid instance, and his defeat allows access to the Opera Event.

In The Last Guardian, Moroes was described as Medivh's castellan, or personal house servant. He was an oddly thin man, ghostly in appearance, who wore horse blinders over his eyes in order to escape the wandering visions that plagued Medivh's tower. He described to Khadgar (who had traveled from Dalaran to serve as Medivh's apprentice) how he had seen a vision of him breaking one of Cook's crystal dishes and — despite trying to avoid doing so — ended up shattering it anyway; he wore the blinders until the day he died. He was killed by Medivh in the final stages of his madness, and is now buried beside his master and Cook outside of Karazhan. Moroes has been resurrected by the new master of Karazhan. He is one of the first bosses encountered by adventurers. He has been revived as an undead and wields two wicked daggers when attacking. He seems to have retained much of his personality during life. The party he "holds" in the tower's Banquet Hall includes ghosts of relatives of Darkshire noblemen as guests. Names of all of the NPCs in the Hall, including Ebonlocke who refuses to take part in the festivities, can be found as names of notable citizens of the Duskwood town.

How to deal with Moroes:
The Moroes encounter tests your raid's ability to control several targets while also maintaining high DPS. Success requires a solid control strategy for his four dinner guests. If allowed to go free, they will quickly put an end to the squishies. Control must be established immediately on the pull and maintained throughout the fight.

Once control is established, the encounter becomes a race between the raid's damage output and the building damage caused by Garrote. Each time a Garrote is applied, the strain on the healers increases. Moroes must die before the healing needed becomes too much to handle.

His abilities:
* Basic Melee: 1600–2500 on plate.
* Immune to Taunt
* Vanish: Vanishes without dropping aggro.
* Garrote: A physical DoT applied to a random player character after Vanish. Deals 1000 damage every three seconds for five minutes (100,000 total damage).
* Blind: A poison-based disorient effect that lands on Moroes' closest non-tank target.
* Gouge: A physical stun on Moroes' current target. Breaks on damage. Moroes attacks the target with the second-highest threat while his primary target is stunned.
* Enrage: At 30% health, Moroes Enrages, increasing his damage.
* Berserk: After a certain amount of time Moroes frenzies and throws daggers at random raid members.

Kommentar von Bedeni

Really funny thing is that if Moroes Garrotes the main-tank then you wont really need an off-tank coz by the time he gouges the tank the damage from Garrote will remove the gouge :)

This guy is tough...he has 4 elite adds with him, you get a random 4 out of a pool of 6 which are a shadow priest, holy priest, prot war, MS war, ret pally and holy pally. He himself is a rogue with 3 special attacks (on top of the fact that he can hit a clothie for 7-8k non crit). First, he blinds the person who is second on the aggro chart, not a big deal. Second, he gouges the main tank and runs for someone else while the tank is gouged, which is a big deal because he usually runs for a healer and can 1 shot them pretty easily. Third, he from time to time vanishes and then garottes someone before returning to the tank. His garotte ticks for 1k and lasts for five full minutes, so it is pretty brutal. Good luck with him, and have fun with your phat lewtz.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Blessing of protection against garotte ftw
After addon every raid should have a Paladin...!
2 Ice or Arcane Ice mages... you wont
have any problem dealing with garotte then

Kommentar von Thottbot

We accidently discovered that if you DOT up moroes and he die's while vanished, the instance will not register that he is dead. This means that the garrote's will not go away and you cannont procede to the opera event. HOWEVER, you can loot him. Then you need to perform a soft reset (everyone leaves instance for 30 min) and he will respawn, where you can kill him again. He will drop the same loot as the time before. This was really annoying for us as we were trying to blow through the curator in one night, but this discovery is quite hilarous. You can totally farm moroes for loot (and if he happens to drop the mongoose, every enchanter in your guild will be a happy enchanter). We talked to a GM and apparently this is not a BUG, Moroes is not meant to die in vanish and told us to not DOT him below 25% ( all I have to say to that is PFFFFT). Therefore this is completely legit in the eyes of blizzard (at least for the time being).

Kommentar von Thottbot

Alright guys, here is the breakdown, you should have 3 priests in this fight, you need them for the shackles. Right when you pull Moroes that is when you get your priests to shackle, you need them to reshackle every 10 seconds or so. Kill the forth elite quick and start on Moroes. Moroes will Garrote once a minute. You have to keep the garroted player healed. It is a fairly long fight so save your mana. If you keep the targets shackled, get down the forth elite, keep the garrotted players healed, and full out DPS on Moroes then you wont have any problems.

Kommentar von Thottbot

hes not that hard, went there with guild and got him 2nd go cause of a fluke, keeping adds under control is they key, and all should have a yell macro to let healers know they got garroted.. pretty important
now drop my belt you sucky rogue

Kommentar von Thottbot

Don't be too sad about vendoring your Luffa trinket. It doesn't work on mobs above level 60 anyway, and yes that includes Moroes. =)

Kommentar von Thottbot

We had 2 priests, so 2 shackles went on holy priest and prot warrior, while dps went on shadow priest to stop her outrageous mana burns.
Meanwhile a hunter trap-kited retribution pally around and when Shadowpriest was dead, aggro was picked up by our preparation rogue, who rogue tanked him while he, our other rogue and the hunter took him apart... rest went directly to moroes.

I will only say this... make sure that any pallys among the adds are dead, cuz they break shackles alot and their stuns will wreak havoc.

Kommentar von Thottbot

So here is the WHOLE story on how to defeat moroes....

1. The Boss:
1. Moroes has 3 separate things that cause havoc on a raid...the first being his blind on your main tank / off tank targets...this is countered by pally,shammy, or druid cleanse,cure,etc.... and should be done ASAP.
2. Garrote ....he will periodically vanish and garrote a random person in the raid before returning to the MT/OT combo....this ticks off for 1k damage every 2 seconds and cannot be dispelled except through a few special skills or by using luffa(level 60 quest reward item from lights hope chapel quest giver)...it is highly suggested that if you are not a dwarf, pally, or frostmage that you obtain luffa before fighting this boss. NOTE: use luffa after garrote has ticked off at least once or it may not work.
3. Gouge ...he will gouge any target that is melee attacking him.....this should only be your main tank or offtank targets until your rogues or DPS warriors(if your group has them in it's make-up) are finished with the add/adds. NOTE: you MUST have the blind removed from whichever tank has it on them IMMEDIATLY...if it is left, there is the potential for him to gouge the other tank and then go after your clothies...usually the healers...which he can and will 1 shot easily without a critical strike, 6-9k damage on average.

2. The Adds:
1. The adds consist of 6 types of which 4 are randomly spawned each week...
Protection Warrior
Mortal Strike Warrior
Retribution Paladin
Holy Paladin
Shadow Priest
Holy Priest
2. There are many ways to deal with these adds based on the random spawn combination...in general however the most dangerous of the classes and the ones that should be killed first are the Shadow priest who will burn nearly all of an average healer's mana in 1 mana burn...and the mortal strike warrior as his healing debuff can drain your healers mana if he applies it too often...
The rest of the adds should be kept CC the entire fight and should not be touched as DPS is transferred to Moroes himself.

3. The Strategy:
1. Obviously mark all targets and have everyone aware of the different attacks and weaknesses of those targets as well as the order to kill them in BEFORE the fight starts.
2. CC 2-3 of the adds (only 2 if your hunter or mage is an expert at kiting and can easily handle the 3rd)...this means shackles, turn undead, and hunter traps.
3. Slow 4th add down giving time for movement of your party to safe locations and for the proper target to obtain aggro on this add....this means hunter's concussion shot...mage's frost bolt...rogue's poisons...anything you have to slow it down or stun the add.
4. If possible a hunter should start the fight by misdirecting the add that is marked for death first to the off-tank....the off tank can pick up aggro on both moroes and this add at the same time and the party can kill the add without worry of pulling and wiping.
5. Depending on how much CC your party has you may start attacking moroes after you have downed the 1st add or you may want to kill a second.....if you have only 2 CC and 1 or more is a priest....you may as well NOT fight this boss...Moroes is very deadly and your healers will be drained of mana by the end of this fight...that CC although fairly reliable is dangerous later in the fight when mana pools are lower.
6. Keep your tanks up....if even 1 tank dies...it means a wipe...Moroes hits very hard(on an average MT capable of 4k hits)and very fast...you should never see your tanks below 30%-40% or they are in grave danger.

Have fun with this boss...he is easy if everyone is paying attention and on top of things....a little luck doesnt hurt.

Kommentar von Thottbot

We had a pretty hard time on Moroes, wiped some times, most just bad luck in CC etc. I as a hunter kited and trapped the warrior. At 4% health for Moroes, some things started to get screwy, but the remaining dps (me among them) managed to bring him down. We wiped, the 2 leftover adds ran back, we ressed and looted Moroes.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Moroes was a butler for medivh and he was killed by him because he dropped one of medivh's crystal plates before dinner, he now lurks kara as a undead rogue

Kommentar von Thottbot

Had great success last night with two tanks, two priests, one paladin, and 5 DPS ~ shackle two, pally Turn Undead against one then pally tanks the last one. DPS down the pally-tanked one, then the feared one, then Moroes. Afterwards, the final two adds.

The key was double-tanking Moroes ~ having the #2 on his threat list being another tank meant when he gouged the tank he just turned his attention to another tank and the healers aren't killed.

FWIW... best of luck :)

Kommentar von Thottbot

Moroes is a tough fight if it's your raid's first time around him.

Ideally you should have: two prot warriors, 1 for MT and 2nd for when Moroes gouges the MT and goes after 2nd highest aggro.

Moroes comes with 4 adds that are random when Karazhan loads.

Lord Robin Daris - Mortal Strike Warrior
Lord Crispin Ference - Protection Warrior
Lady Keira Berrybuck - Holy Paladin
Lady Catriona Von'Indi - Holy Priest
Baroness Dorothea Milstipe - Shadow Priest
Baron Rafe Dreuger - Retribution Paladin

Note: You can do a 30 minute soft reset on Moroes, to change the selection of 4 adds.

You should have at least one of the 4 adds shackled at all times. While the off tank holds aggro on another and you burn down the other two adds before dpsing down Moroes.

Every 30 seconds, Moroes vanishes for a few seconds and upon returning, randomly garrotes someone, this ticks for 1000 damage every 3 seconds, which should be healed through.

Other than that, just keep these things in mind and the fight should go okay.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Dwarf pallies must do pretty well against this boss, considering they can cure one persons garotte and cure two of thier own with a stoneform and a bubble.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Now they nerfed Luffa... can anything besides a paladin, mages iceblock, take away the bleed?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Not too bad as long as the garrotes don't fall on the wrong targets.

Adds are simple; cripple poison tactic is #1 btw.

Kommentar von Thottbot

As a tankadin I find it really easy to stay 1 on the OT aggro list and 2 on Moroes. As long as 2 stay shackled this is an easy fight for our raid.

Kommentar von Thottbot

just a tip about this fight.
dont let a add go out of the room.
it resets the whole thing.
our guild wiped on tat.

Kommentar von Thottbot

it was insane how we did this:

1 prot warrior
1 feral druid
1 holy paladin
2 resto shamans
1 elemental shaman
1 enhance shaman(me)
1 shadow priest
1 rouge
1 mage

this was a RL friend run, so we didnt think we would get that far... but this strat went well. since we only have one shackle, we need to kill 3 keeping one CCed. one of our friends had a crazy idea of makeing me frostshock kite the third while they nuked the 2. we were a little confused, but decided to give it a try. it aggroed the target and kited it around the tables and suprisingly it worked. besides the kiting the rest and after all the adds were dowed, the battle is pretty simple

Kommentar von Thottbot

As in PvP, a Tanking Paladin can use consecration to break his stealth. This helps to avoid garrote if you are lucky and hit him with consecration fast enough.

Run around and spam it whenever he vanishes.

Edit: The stealth does not "break" as such, but if he is damaged by the consecration just when coming out of the stealth, he will not garrote but rather immediately return to the tank .

This is a helpful additional tactic if there is no danger of breaking shackle etc. with the consecration.

Kommentar von Thottbot

easy boss, we took down three of the "minions" and then nuked him

Kommentar von Thottbot

This is not a fun fight to wipe in and hangs on a bit of luck if you are using shackle for CC. One shackle resist can spell a healer down.

Tank pull, immediate CC, burn down 2 adds, then all DPS on Moroes while other adds are CC'd.

Shackle works. Heck, fear, CoE, and kiting with a lock can work as well.

Ice block is great.

Don't know why blizz made an entire instance where polymorph does absolutely nothing...

Moroes is a dirty dirty guy....

Kommentar von Thottbot

If your a hunter, feign death whenever Moroes vanishes, and take a sit down for a drink while your out of combat for a couple seconds. Careful to pick your trap target back up afterwards if you're assigned to cc something.

One time he resisted feign death and...I dodged his garrote ;D

Kommentar von Thottbot

Ok, here is how our fight went, and first a rundown of the specs and classes.

Healers:
Restoration Shaman
Restoration Druid
Holy Pally

Tanks:
Protection Pally
Protection Warrior

DPS:
Sub. Rogue
BM Hunter
BM Hunter
Ice Mage
Ice Mage

Ok as you can see we did this without any priests. We were very unsuccesful with trying to CC all the adds so we got the idea to bring in a pally tank. We had the Pally pull Moroes along with his adds. Then, our warrior pulled moroes out of the group and tanked him alone.. but close enough to the pally so he would stay in range of his AoE's. We had the pally tanking the 4 adds. We (DPS) took out the adds one by one while they were still hacking away at our pally tank. ( Our pally tank did excellent by the way on holding aggro) Of course, we took the shadow priest out. I , being the rogue, stunlocked him so he wouldnt mana burn and mindflay the party, while the ranged DPS took him out. After this we moved on to the rest of the adds, all focusing on one of them at a time. We took each of them down in about 10-12 secs apiece. Once we got all the adds down Moroes was a baby! We had the Pally and Warrior fight for aggro so he would blind/garrote one of them(second on aggro list gets blinded/garroted, so its good to have a tank garroted instead of healers). We actually had our healing shammy get garroted once, but quickly our tanking pally bubbled him. On the very next garrote, our healing Druid gets garroted, but again the Holy pally bubbles him. Also, remember if you have a pally in your party to NEVER NEVER NEVER Bubble your tank. Your tank will lose ALL aggro and Moroes will go after party members most likely causing it to be a wipe. After those two garrotes most of them were on now going to tanks.
-Keep in mind that if you are a mage you can ice block out of garrote, and if your a dwarf you can use stoneform to get out of it- Also note that Cloak of Shadows does NOT work.

Our healers during the fight looked about like this:

We had the shammy healing the warrior that was tanking Moroes. The druid helped out both tanks with his HoT's (heals over time), and we had the holy pally and druid focusing on the Pally that was taking the four adds.

All in all, once you get your method down that works for your group your set. Like I said, Moroes is CAKE after you get his adds down... :)

Kommentar von Thottbot

This is an easy fight if u hav sum priests or hunters.hav 2 priests shackle the 2 pepes on moroes left,hunter trap the person on the right side of moroes closer 2 the raid.then dps the 1 person on the right wich isnt being cc'ed.then dps the person on the far left farthest from the raid.after those 2 are dead hav the priest that shackled the person on the left farthest from the raid then shackle the person on the hunters ice trapped target.just keep those people cc'ed the entire fight.then dps moroes.after moroes is dead kill the other 2 cc'ed pepes.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I've recently learned how to tank moroes with one tank instead of two. I hear this is easier with a druid but I recently did it with my warrior. Essentially, you tank him facing away from from you but still close enough to Moroes to hit him with all your melee abilities and presto you cant be cc'd. Its fun and allows you to bring in another dps char and drop the undead butler even quicker. Enjoy.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I just dont like it that a fight that requires good hunter CC drops nothing for them.

Kommentar von Thottbot

This is a pretty simple fight. If you are lucky an get the holy priest and S priest, tHen DPS the heck out of them. They drop pretty quickly. It you have the prot warrior then have your OT get agro on him and then get second on moroes. DONT kill the prot warrior. He hits for a couple hundred and any tank should be able to handle it. If your OT is a warrior he will like the rage from being hit.

MS / RET pally, CC them if you can. They hit like MAC trucks. DONT LET THEM GET TO YOUR HEALERS. They will hurt/kill most healers. I have done morose a few ways, 3 adds CC'd and i have also see it with all the adds dieing before moroes. It all depends on your raid make up and the DPS they have. If your a newer guild with ok DPS then try CC'ing.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Here's how we did it using 2 Bear tanks. CC on 2 of the adds, leaving Moroes and 2 others in play. Off Bear casts a starfire on 1 of the adds then immedeately follow with a moonfire on the second generating threat on both ---> Switch to bear. Main tank grabs Moroes. Keep the fight close. Offtank 3xLacerate on each target including Moroes. Swipe as much as possible. What this will do is put the offtank second on Moroes' hit list. When he stuns the Main Tank he won't go for the healers he will go for the offtank. This requires a lot of precision and very good heals. We used this strat and took him out with a semi-pug group, first time. I was off-tanking ;-) and watching "Omen" to make sure I was next in line to be hit and every time he stunned the main tank, he nailed me, saving a healer. Hope this helps if your lacking a warrior.

Kommentar von Thottbot

HOW TO SOLO TANK MOROES (as a paladin)

Yup that's right. Some people say its completly impossible. Not true.

This is how we did it. My raid group consisted of:

*Me as the only tank (protection paladin crit/crush immune 18k armor 15,8 k hp unbuffed)
* Enchancement shaman
* 2 Holy priests
* Shadow priest
* Hunter
* Rogue
* Mage
* Warlock
* Resto druid.

The add handling was very easy considering the amount of cc we had along with us. We choosed to have 3 of them cc during full time to be able to kill moroes faster.
As you know Moroes need to be tanked by 2 threatdealers, both of them toping the threat meter. This is because he uses attacks as Gouge and Blind, where as both of them affects the Main tank (Blind on second and 3d threat holder aswell).

Having only 1 tank on Moroes would mainly lead to a one-shot of a healer wich will be second on the threat for Moroes, this is assuming all your DPS focuses on the adds firstly.

The way we did it was me main tanking him and having our enhancement shaman off tanking him. The rest of the dps burned down the 4th add quick and then started to DPS Moroes, the remaining 3 adds stayed cc'd for the rest of the fight.

The trick here is, to have blessing of sacrifice up on the "off tank" (in this case our shamy) to be able to break out of the gouge or blind. This means, that our off tank, only has to take 1 hit at MAXIMUM to bring Moroes back to me, 1 hit easily partly avoided by a priest shield, or shamistic rage.

And this is it, it's this simple mates, we keep on doing this until he was dead, killed the remaing adds and looted the boss.

Karazhan is fully solo-tankable (as a paladin).

The only part i find extremly challenging without my warrior friend is the mobs just before curator, kfn man leachers.. =P

Cheers mates

Kommentar von Allakhazam

After last patch the Luffa doesn't work any more.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

This guy will have 4 adds out of a possible 6 combinations.

We found it a lot easier to kill 2 of the adds and then shackle the remaining two while you DPS Moroes.

He will vanish at around 25/30 second intervals and garrote the 2nd highest on the damage meter, for about 1000 every 3 seconds. This can be Ice Blocked, Stoneformed, BoPped, or you can use the Luffa trinket.

He will also blind the 2nd/3rd? person on the aggro meter every 30 seconds or so, this is dispellable.

He will gouge the main tank every once in a while too, taking aggro to the 2nd highest on the aggro meter.

Recommend two tanks on the boss with casters especially watching aggro, rogues need to use vanish to reset aggro, because he's immune to Feint.

We found him fairly easy once we got the rhythmn, just need low-aggro DPSers and good healing on the tank.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

He's a pretty straight forward fight. Just gotta have the tank on him and burn down the other dudes. Make sure to have a preist shackle the dude with the shovel (His name escapes me atm) cause he hits HARD. Like REAAALLLLYYY HARD. Just burn down the rest, then pick him up, burn him down, and proceed to WTFPAWNing moroes, and you will all be standing over his already undead corpse in victory.

can someone stop talkin abouit luffa and tell the rest of us hw we actually kill this guy?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

You need 2 tanks for the fight, 3 healers and 5 dps classes. In order to have an easy kill, it’s better to have one holy priest & one shadow priest to shackle 2 of the adds. A hunter and a rogue are usefull too, cause they can kite easily with freezing/frost traps & crippling poison. Bellow you’ll find the adds that Moroes can have on his room, depending on your setup, you’ll choose which will trap/shackle/turn undead/slow.

name: Baron Rafe Dreuger
class: Retribution Paladin
health: 68k
abilities: dispells shackle, casts blessings

name: Baroness Dorothea Milstipe
class: Shadow Priest
health: 66k
abilities: mana burn

name: Lady Catriona Von’Indi
class: Holy Priest
health: 66k
abilities: heals and dispells shackle

name: Lady Keira Berrybuck
class: Holy Paladin
health: 68k

name: Lord Crispin Ference
class: Protection Warrior
health: 83.4k
abilities: -
name: Lord Robin Daris
class: Arms Warrior
Health: 84k
abilities: mortal strike, melee ae

The main tank pulls Moroes to one side of the room, the offtank hits one add for a few seconds and then keeps building aggro on Moroes in order to be 2nd in the threat list. Depending on your 10 man raid setup, you choose either to kill all adds first and then moroes or to kill 2-3 adds, keeping the last one(s) under control

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Is there any way to take the garrote off that moroes throws at you?
Can the luffa take it off or does it not work on guys over lvl 60?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Does Luffa actually remove his bleed? I'll be shocked since bleeds can stack.
