Quote:A quick rundown on Lord V:
Phase 1 - Valthalak spawns shades that will channel a spell on people. If the channel finishes it's insta-death. The shades are killed ASAP with what DPS can be spared going to Val.
One thing I found during my Valthalak attempts that was useful is that priests casting "Shackle Undead" on the shades will interrupt their channelling, and they seem to take awhile to start casting again (cooldown maybe?). When we had a priest focus on trying to stop their channeling, things went much smoother.
Quote:I have read that he will attempt to heal himself ONLY if there are any mana users within "range", dunno what "range" is, but probably 25-30ish yards. He also has a chain lightning effect similar to Venoxis, so either melee range or caster range, nothing in-between.
As far as I could tell his "chain lightning" is actually a "chain life drain", so just avoid bridging it from melee to ranged folks and he won't heal much.
