This is a super easy fight once you learn the mechanics.
The main boss is tank and spank, except for a frontal cone stun, easy to avoid. The rest of the fight you are doing 2 things:
1. Kill entanglements - they are locking up your ally NPCs which you need for the fight.
2. When you see untargetable flowers appear in the ground, everyone, tank and healer included, run around and trample them to make them disappear. This involves 2-3 steps back and forth, one does not always do it. When you do this, they disappear. If any evolve they turn into adds. This is what will wipe or succeed your team, as the adds just overwhelm you.Other notes: 2 add types will spawn that you cannot prevent. One is a tree, nothing special on him, just pick him up and kill him with cleave damage. Large groups (a dozen or so) little plant adds spawn together. Just snap agro them, they die in seconds.
Lastly, other than the main bosses frontal cone aoe, any other magic effects (fire animation or black swirly's) are from your npc friends and do tons of damage to aid you. Any adds that are alive, park them on those magic effects and they will die in seconds. Good luck.

Setup:: Warrior tank, feral, dk, Spriest, restodruid.
Do not beat adds, dodge boss abilility like cone AoE, and add's breath. The main moment of this fight is after casting Entanglement quickly kill the trap. And 2nd moment is during the cast Genesis run and trample all the flowers while they are still in the ground, otherwise the mobs come out and kill the tank and others. In fact, the whole fight you have to kill traps and trample flowers. If you save NPS alive as much as possible their make enough damage to kill the boss and mobs. Healer can heal the NPC. The tank should stayin fire (like flamestrike) with mobs and boss.
Boss dropped legendary (Orange) The core of life.
Valnu is located within The Everbloom by a portal at 45:35 at Violet Bluff.
