Abilities & Strategy
Ground Slam
Ozruk builds up his strength then slams the ground in front of him dealing Physical damage to all enemies within 4 yards of the impact point.
Rupture
When Ozruk performs a Ground Slam in Heroic Difficulty, the ground ruptures and causes three lines of rock spikes to erupt in the direction he is facing. Any player caught by one of the rock spikes is dealt Physical damage and is knocked upwards.
Elementium Bulwark
The elementium plates grafted onto Ozruk are charged with energy, causing them to have a 20% chance to reflect spells for 10 sec.
Elementium Spike Shield
Spikes erupt from Ozruk's body for 10 sec. This effect stacks up to 5 times, but may only be applied once per second.
Shatter
When the Elementium Spike Shield expires, Ozruk shatters the spikes and launches them in all directions. This inflicts Physical damage to all enemies.
Paralyze
Right before Ozruk uses his Shatter ability, Ozruk will cast Paralyze. The Paralyze spell stuns all enemies for 8 sec. Any damage taken while stunned will remove the Paralyze effect. If Paralyze is not prematurely removed, then at the end of the spell's duration the player is dealt Arcane damage.

The in-game Adventure Guide text for the Ozruk encounter in The Stonecore.
