Boss abilities
| Ability | Adventure Guide | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Lava Fissure | Slabhide creates a crack in the ground under a random player. The lava pool lasts 10 seconds. In Heroic Difficulty the crack erupts after 3 seconds and the lava pool lasts 30 seconds. | |
| Sand Blast | ||
| Stalactite | Periodically during the encounter, Slabhide will run to the center of the cavern and lift off into the air. While hovering above the ground, a large number of stalactites then rain down from the ceiling in random locations around the cavern. The stalactites last 30 sec, and also block movement and line of sight for spells. | |
| Crystal Storm | After Slabhide lifts off and finishes creating stalactites, he then lands. Before the stalactites disappear, he begins to channel Crystal Storm for 6 sec. Slabhide must have line of sight to an enemy to deal damage with Crystal Storm. |
