These mobs have a nasty chain that they use to pull you into melee range if you attack from afar. It interrupts your spells. Otherwise, they don't hit that hard, lol.

Darkmaster Gandling of the Cult of the Damned leads the Scourge offensive here in Andorhal. My old counterpart, Koltira, leads the Forsaken forces. If we're to win Andorhal, we'll have to defeat both, but we will certainly fail if we take on both at once.

Araj the Summoner is bolstering the Scourge defenses with simple skeletons... an army of weaklings that will overwhelm you before it overpowers you. He has assembled animi within Andorhal's northern towers that spew these skeletons out at an alarming rate. But I've got the solution!
