Lord Valthalak
SummonedUpper Blackrock Spire · Classic Era
Overview
A drakonid noble and a warlock of immense power, Valthalak ruled the spire before Drakkisath rose to power. Mercenaries killed him to take his spellbook, but his necromantic powers let him take revenge even after death. He only appears at the end of a long quest chain, summoned with an item it lets you obtain.
Strategy
A long fight that demands stamina from the healers. Valthalak drains life in a chain: the spell jumps from one character to the next, doubling its damage with each jump, and heals him. Spread out and interrupt him. During the first phase, Summon Spectral Assassin brings in assassins two at a time: kill them right away, because they stun their target and kill it if they finish their spell. Around 40% health, he switches weapons and hits much harder: disarm him whenever you can. Around 15%, he often casts Shadow Bolt Volley on the whole group: give it everything to finish him quickly.
