Beledar has turned to Shadow, we must retreat back to Mereldar!
<Vaelisia looks towards Aelric Leid.>

It wasn't the most graceful method, but with my Moonkin soloing, I ran around in circles avoiding the shadow circles and blasted him with Moonfire and Sunfire. The latter seemed to cause a bit more damage. It was a grind, but it worked.
Hopefully it helps another druid player.

I cannot for the life of me kill hi, with my lvl 80 feral druid! Any helpful suggestions?
Kite him whenever he casts Shadow Wreath. Its the purple vapor cloud spell. Kite him about 8 to 10 yards to get out of its effect.

Step 4 of 10. Chain order is read from the prerequisite data in the current retail client build, so it reflects what the game requires, not a curated storyline.

I can sense three beacons of void ahead, all funneling their power into one massive font of darkness. You will need to kill them. With them dead, I can bring down the shield.

That was too close. This attack took a toll on all of us. We have many injured, and many shaken. Can you check in with people? See how they are doing?
