Fel Lord Zakuun
Official Overview (Blizzard)
Zakuun alternates between attacking with his axe, and flinging it to the ground to strike with his fists, modifying his abilities in the process. Throughout the encounter, Zakuun attempts to form Fel Crystals, though players may prevent this process by absorbing the energy themselves. In either case, some of Zakuun's abilities will trigger a massive explosion if they strike either a Crystal or a player with absorbed Latent Energy.
Tanks
• Stand within Rumbling Fissures to seal them when not actively tanking. • When the Fel Lord is Disarmed or Heavily Armed, both tanks must stand together. • Soul Cleave banishes you to the Shadow Realm, allowing you to shed your Latent Energy.
Damage Dealers
• Stand within Rumbling Fissures to seal them. • When targeted with Seed of Destruction, aim Wake of Destruction away from any Fel Crystals. • When Befouled, move away from your allies.
Healers
• Stand within Rumbling Fissures to seal them. • When targeted with Seed of Destruction, aim Wake of Destruction away from any Fel Crystals. • When Befouled, move away from your allies.
