Zul'Aman - 1er Boss - Nalorakk - Avatar de l'ours

Introduction : Zul'Aman Timed Event

The Zul'Aman timed event is fairly simple to understand and execute. Anyone familiar with the "Stratholme Baron Run" - a timed quest event where players have 45 minutes to kill Baron Rivendere - will easily grasp the objectives here as well.

Once the event has been started, the raid has 20 minutes to kill the first boss - Nalorakk - thus freeing the NPC that is enslaved and receiving additional, high quality spoils from the kill. Each subsequent boss must be killed within 20 minutes as well. You can see some of the
timed event loot below, including a special bear land mount.

Nalorakk is the first boss encounter you'll come across in the zone. He's the bear god in Zul'Aman, so the fight will consist of him switching between humanoid and bear forms at specific intervals. It's a fairly straightforward encounter that is mostly a "tank-n-spank" fight, though healing the target of his charge is crucial.

You will want to have two tanks for this encounter, as Nalorakk is tauntable and one tank the entire encounter will simply take too much damage to heal for the duration.

The Encounter

Humanoid Phase
During his "humanoid" phase, he will use three abilities; one is a random target charge ability called "Surge" that causes physical damage and knocks the target and any allies within 10 yards back, another being "Mangle" - a main tank targeted attack that increases damage done by bleeds by 100% and finally - "Brutal Swipe" - a frontal cleave ability that hits for "spread" damage, meaning you'll want multiple people being hit by it to spread the damage taken out. At the end of this phase, have your bear form tank taunt and begin tanking as Nalorakk shifts into bear form.

Bear Phase
During this phase, he uses two bleed effects - Lacerating Slash and Rend Flesh - both of which are only used while Nalorakk is in bear form. Nalorakk also uses a raidwide silence effect that does around 1k damage and silences for 5 seconds. At the end of this phase, have your humanoid form tank taunt and begin tanking as Nalorakk shifts out of bear form.

Humanoid Phase
Brutal Swipe : Frontal "Saber Lash" ability that spreads its damage across the targets within the cone of its attack. If it hits a single target, it does 28500-31500 Physical damage (which can then be mitigated by armor), so it's imperative to soak this attack up with multiple members of the raid.

Surge : Charges a random target in the raid, causing 3700-4300 Physical damage and knocking back the target and allies within 10 yards.
Mangle : Increases damage taken by bleeds by 100%.

Bear Phase
Lacerating Slash : Deals 1735 damage every 2 seconds.

Rend Flesh : Deals 5525-7475 Physical damage and causes the target to bleed for 2335 per second for 5 seconds.

Deafening Roar : Does 1235-1365 Physical damage and Silences anyone within 50 yards for 2 seconds.
