Magmaw

Official Overview (Blizzard)

Magmaw spits a volley of magma at three random players, inflicting 0 Fire damage to each player.

Abilities

Pillar of Flame

Magmaw barrages the ground beneath a random player's feet with globs of roiling magma. The impacts sunder the ground, causing eruptions that knock players within 5 yards high into the air and inflicting 0 Fire damage every 0.5 sec. The impacts also spawn multiple Lava Parasites.

Lava Parasite

These slow moving creatures will burrow into the warm flesh of players when they attack, infecting their new host.

Parasitic Infection

When a Lava Parasite burrows into the flesh of a player, the Lava Parasite inflicts 0 damage every 2 sec. for 10 sec. After the infection runs its course, the player vomits up the Parasite. It then begins to search for a new host.

Lava Spew

Magmaw spews a stream of molten lava across all players, inflicting 0 Fire damage every 2 sec for 6 sec.

Molten Tantrum

If Magmaw is ever unable to reach an enemy with his melee attack, he enters a frenzy. Magmaw then launches Magma Spit at all players and increases his Fire damage dealt by 100% for 10 sec. This effect stacks.

Mangle

Magmaw picks up his current target in his jaws, then bites down. The crushing force inflicts 0 damage every 2 sec. Magmaw crushes his target severely after 30 sec. Impaling Magmaw causes him to release his grasp on the target.

Sweltering Armor

Magmaw's fiery jaws melt the armor of the player targeted by Mangle, reducing the player's armor by 50% for 1.5 min.

Massive Crash

Magmaw brings his entire body smashing down on one half of the room, inflicting 0 damage and stuns all players caught beneath him for 3 sec. The Massive Crash also briefly stuns Magmaw, allowing two players to leap onto his pincers.

Lava Worm Wrangling

Immediately after Magmaw performs Massive Crash, a window of opportunity exists where two players can leap onto his pincers. From that location they can attach chains to the spike protruding from the ground in front of the worm, and then reel Magmaw onto the spike.

Launch Hook

The players hanging onto Magmaw's pincers can launch a hook at the spike in front of the worm. If the hook connects, it chains Magmaw to the spike for 3 sec. Magmaw will break free from a single connecting chain, but if a player connects a second chain to the spike then the players reel the chains in and impale Magmaw on the spike.

Point of Vulnerability

When Magmaw is impaled on the spike, players can attack his exposed and unarmored head. Attacking the exposed head increases the damage dealt to Magmaw by 100%. Magmaw frees himself from the spike after 30 sec.

Lord Victor Nefarius

On Heroic Difficulty Lord Nefarius arrives to observe the adventurers contend with his pet and thwart their efforts.

Blazing Inferno

Lord Nefarius calls down a meteor of bone and fire at the ground beneath a random player. The meteor inflicts 0 Fire damage to players in a 4 yard radius and knocks them down. The explosion creates a Blazing Bone Construct, and sparks the Ignition of fast-moving flames in a spiral around the point of impact.

Ignition

The Blazing Inferno creates moving patches of flame that swirl around the point of impact, inflicting 0 Fire damage every 1 sec to all players within 2 yards of them. The Ignition flames dissipate after 1 min.

Blazing Bone Construct

Lord Nefarius's Blazing Inferno creates a single flaming skeletal construct.

Fiery Slash

The construct slashes at an enemy with its fiery claws, dealing 75% of normal melee damage as Fire damage.

Armageddon

When a Blazing Bone Construct reaches 20% remaining health, it prepares to self-destruct. The Blazing Bone Construct then explodes in an Armageddon, inflicting 377 Fire damage to all players.

Shadow Breath

When Magmaw reaches 30% remaining health, Lord Nefarius begins to directly attack the players. He launches volleys of shadowy flame at random players. The Shadow Breath inflicts 0 Shadow damage to all players within 5 yards of his target.
