Abilities & Strategy
Overview
Mal'Ganis and Kin'tessa assault players with a combination of decay and shadow magic. When Mal'Ganis reaches 100 energy, he signals both dreadlords to dissolve into their swarm forms and inflict high damage to all players with Swarm of Decay and Swarm of Darkness. When Kin'tessa reaches 100 energy, she signals both dreadlords to vanish and infiltrate the raid, deceiving their minds with Infiltration of Dread. Upon death, each of the dreadlords turns into a Rampaging Swarm until the other is destroyed.
