Boss will cast [spell=195791] on a random player stunning him for 20 sec, channel it to destroy.
Channels random player with aoe missiles [spell=196070], avoid the aoe area.
He'll create a pool of [spell=195362] with [spell=195523], stand in it to gain the buff. But be careful he'll stun you for 12 sec after [spell=196115] if you still have stacks left. It's removing one stack every 2 sec for 8 sec so you can have up to 4 stacks of [spell=195362] to avoid stun.
Don't stand in 15 yard zone near the boss when [spell=196115] is over.
He'll spawn [spell=220481], don't stand near it and position the boss in a way that melee won't get hurt by orbs.AbilityNoteBoss Yells[spell=195791]Channel it to destroy.[spell=196070]Avoid[spell=195523][spell=195362][spell=196115]Run away 15 yards from the boss[spell=195362][spell=196115] will stun for 12 sec if you have [spell=195362] stacks left.[spell=220481]Don't stand near the orb
