Elder Nakox

Abilities:

• Blood Plague

Strategy:

Elder Nakox is a race against the clock. A few seconds after engaging, the eggs around Nakox begin to hatch, spawning 3-4 non-elite Nerubian mobs. This happens every 5 to 10 seconds or so. After several waves, an Ahn'kahar Guardian will spawn that all dps must switch to. This elite makes everything in the room immune to damage, so must be killed before returning DPS to the boss. Nakox also casts Blood Plague throughout the fight, which can easily be healed through.

Prince Taldaram

Abilities:

• Bloodthirst
• Conjure Flame Sphere
• Embrace of the Vampyr

Strategy:

To engage Taldaram the group must activate the objects on the platforms across the room from him. Each platform has 4 mobs to kill as well. The first phase is simply a tank and spank, where Taldaram uses Bloodthirst regularly. At roughly 50%, Taldaram enters Phase 2, where he will cast Conjure Flame Sphere, and then disappear. The sphere can be avoided by running away from it, but the damage is minimal. After a few seconds, he will reappear and cast Embrace of the Vampyr on a random target. He will continue to damage the target until 20,000 damage is done or 20 seconds of cast time occurs. This process repeats until he is defeated. Immunity effects currently remove the Embrace effect.

Jedoga Shadowseeker

Abilities:

• Cyclone Strike
• Lightning Bolt
• Thundershock

Strategy:

After clearing the dozen or so non-elites that surround her, Jedoga descends from her levitation point. Dozens of cultists come running toward her, kneeling in a semi-circle around the area which the encounter takes place. These are unimportant until later. Initially, Jedoga is a simple tank and spank, cycling through her three abilities, listed above. At some point (50%?), Jedoga levitates again. At this point, a circle appears on the ground, and a random cultists stands and runs toward it. This cultist must be killed before he enters the circle, or he will sacrifice himself and Jedoga will become much more powerful. After the first sacrifice, circles will appear at random. These circles deal decent damage to anyone inside them, so avoid standing in them. At intervals (time or HP uncertain at this time), she will levitate, and the sacrifice will be attempted again. Rinse and repeat.

Herald Volazj

Abilities:

• Insanity
• Shiver
• Shadow Bolt Volley

Strategy:

This is mostly a gimmick fight in its current state, due to the relative ease of the Insanity debuff. Volazj remains a tank and spank for the entire encounter, until he casts Insanity. When this ability is cast, each member of the part is cast into a "shadow realm" where they are forced to kill the other members of their party. These "evil clones" are very weak, and should pose no real problems to anyone. Once the spell's duration expires, the fight returns to the regular tank and spank. Throughout the fight Volazj will cast Shiver, a curse that bounces between people, you may be able to avoid this by spreading out. The damage is triggered by his Shadow Bolt Volley, which he will also cast periodically.

In Heroic mode groups may find it easier to LoS his Insanity cast.
