Sully Kneecapper is the second in the Crucible of Carnage series, similar to the previous mini arena events of the past. He is the Alliance mob that the Horde must face in order to advance in the chain.

Sully has three main attacks:

A melee attack that hits for around 8-10k on plate afflicting them with a knockback.

An area of effect attack that lays "mines" on the ground.

A weak charge attack that hits for about 2.5k health that stuns the target.

The melee attack is the main threat in this fight as your tank will become easily overwhelmed without proper healing and the incoming damage is fairly consistent.

While this is going on he will cast his AoE ability which lays a marker on the ground, similar to the Ick and Krik fight in The Pit of Saron. These are easily avoided with proper movement and common sense.

Lastly, Sully will charge a party member at random. Carrying them a few feet from your group and stunning them. While the damage from this is minimal, it is worth keeping an eye on in case someone is charged into a left over mine from his AoE attack.

Overall, Sully is a simple fight for any well co-ordinated group and will prove a challenge for any class attempting to solo him with insufficient gear or a self heal capability.

Quick fight. He will place targets on the ground, and shortly after, lightning bolts will land there. Don't stand in them. He will also pick up a random person and charge them into the walls. Doesn't do a lot of damage, and can simply be walked off.

Just tried him today with my 84 priest, an 84 warr and sham, and he won't even go hostile for us. We accept the quest, he wanders out, spouts some rubbish about his sister being able to beat us and then sits there, then the quest fails. Tried multiple times.

    Grim and gory, this next match is sure to have the crowd groanin' one way or another. Calder Gray has been gathering the bodyparts of defeated challengers and building the perfect champion. This thing is the ultimate cobbled collaboration of corpsified combatants.
