The circle is at 77,36

Solo'd as a 78 Unholy DK, but ended up in ghoul form before he went down. Har'koa spawns after you damage him a little bit to help you kill him. If it weren't for a few missed Death Strikes, I probably wouldn't have hit ghoul form, so it's definitely doable without dying.

Comment by Orden

Pretty simple to solo as a Frost Mage, kite him around a bit (he moves at 100% or so) with Ice Lance spam and occasional Fire Blast, use a WE to get him down quickly.

He does a debuff that does about 500 dmg/5 sec and stacks for solo'ing it really helps to get Mage Armor up and to have the Magic Absorption talent, you'll resist quite a few of them.
Once you got him down to the dialog % (~85-90k), Ice Block so you loose aggro, stay in it for a few seconds (to make sure he STAYS on Har'koa), if neccesary run out of his AoE DoT range and bandage quickly, but you -should- be fine. After that simple stand next to Har'koa to get her healing and nuke =) (I think a fire mage could outrange his AoE DoT and not worry about HP, not sure though.. but Har'koa should do enough to keep you alive)

TL;DR: Kite > Dialog > IB=Give Har'koa aggro > Hug Har'koa & Nuke
And ofcourse spam Fire Ward and Ice Barrier!

Solo'd as a level 77 Blood DK.

This proved to be quite a challenge. I knew the dialogue script that would occur, so I was saving Mark of Blood for then. Until then, I had to rely on a Runic Health Potion, Death Strike, and a 40 second Rune Tap in order to survive. Even then I barely made it to the dialogue. After that, I found Har'koa does performs a HOT spell on you, which, when combined with Bloodworms, another Rune Tap, and more Death Strikes, proved to be JUST enough to win.

When he went down, I had four stacks of the debuff on me and had to eat in order to not die.

Also solo'd as a 77 BM Hunter with average gear, and ferocity pet. Ended fight with about half health (had to use Heart of the Phoenix, had no idea what i was in for when i started)

Comment by mrgamer

Soloable also as a prot warrior, be sure to spellreflect his fast-casting incineration for avoid additional damage

had to use a couple of cooldowns, the bad thing about warriors is that you can't let Har'koa tank the prophet, so you will continue to get mashed until the end; not too bad, the renew Har'koa gives both with enraged regeneration will keep you up, paired with shield wall near the end of the combat will do the job ;)

Solo'd as 76 Feral... If you die, just run back, the tiger will continue fighting :)

Comment by Kimoshi

Solo'd (kinda) as a frost mage.

I died a bit after Har'koa came and sat around to watch them fight. Figured Har'koa would lose, I decided to run back.

Much to my suprise then, when I got back, they were still fighting. Proceeded to pop a health pot and bandage, then went to town with Veins and Elemental. Beat him with Har'koa at maybe 2 or 3%.

Edit- In hindsight, could have probably done this really easily without dying. I used a mana potion since I got low on mana, and forgot about using Lifeblood(I'm an herbalist). Probably would have lived long enough to start getting healed from Har'koa to live had I done bnoth.

Comment by 63375

Dont know if this was supposed to happend or something, but tried him as a rogue alone, got him to 75%, vanished " no hp left ", and then he got immune to everything, and he just stands there and does nothing..

Comment by sunsmoon

can be solo'd by a lvl 76 T6 (BT) geared shadow priest.

Save all CD's for after 75% - after the event, blow trinkets and try to burst him down as much as you can. Do not use shadow word: death. When you get 3 stacks of the flame debuff on you, drop form and start healing. Use Dispersion to reduce damage and regen mana. Keep up VE, SW:P and Devouring Plague, and just spam flash heal / prayer of mending / renew / shield and you will win. :)

Comment by Ebaya

soloed as a lvl 76 rogue. used all my cds to get him down to like 76% then Har'koa came and tanked him - i died but just ran back to see that Har'koa still was fighting him.
then i just dpsd him ( died again because of dot but i just ran back again) might cost a bit but pretty easy :p

Comment by iscream

just killed with friend prot warr, with no probs can be 2 manned

i like part '' casting ritual of annihilation'' :))

Comment by Obnoxious123

Solo'd as a 75 ret paladin, epics with blue quest gear(including the 610 top end axe from arena thing). for paladins:

use fire resis aura
Blessing of Wisdom (i'll tell you why)
judgement of LIGHT

ok, what i did basically was DPS him down ASAP in order for the cat to come. your going to need BoW because you need to spam flash of light every judgement crit, and use your big heal a lot when tanking those fire debuffs. once the cat comes, make sure you STAND NEAR IT! he takes off the fire debuff from you. i didn't even die once, and if you ever get a lot of debuffs on you, just bubble.

Comment by 248405

Solo'd him as a 79 Hunter :) Easy

Comment by wtribe

Did it as a 79 T5/Sunwell mix geared elemental shaman. The tough part was dpsing to the 75% mark without dying. Popped heroism, fire elemental, used a runic health pot, too. Once Har'Koa came to the rescue, it was mostly a matter of healing myself and slipping in a little dps here and there.

Comment by Returner99

I barely managed to solo this as a level 77 Protection Paladin.

I used a combo of Seal of Corruption(Vengeance for Alliance) and Judgement of Light to keep myself up, as well as a Fire Resistance aura to soak up a bit of the damage.

When the guy reached 80% I was very close to death, so I used my Divine Shield just as the stun hit me.
Note: Divine Shield doesn't remove, nor makes you immune to the stun.

In "phase 2", I used the same seals and judgements from phase 1, while using Divine Plea and Arcane Torrent to keep my mana up.
Note: You may not want to use Divine Plea when you're at low health, as it reduces your health regeneration from Judgement of Light.

Har'koa's aura and damage makes this a lot easier than phase 1, although it lasts four times as long. I also had to pop Lay on Hands at one point between 30-40%, and ended up with 4k health, and totally drained of mana.
Note: I'm using Glyph of Lay on Hands, granting me twice as much mana back when casting LoH

As for the stats, it wasn't anything too great:

Armor: 19052
Health: 17678(buffed with the Blessing of Zim'Torga)
Block Value: 719
Defense: 451

Solo'd as 76 BM hunter. In the final phase he ended up killing my pet but I just feigned death and Har'koa tanked it as I finished it off.

Comment by kaze950

solo'd as a 78 hunter, geared in quest items. I ended up dying at the end, but got credit for the kill since I died after the quest mob died

Comment by 42221

Completed at lvl 76, lvl 77 is not needed as description states.

Comment by lordhakera32

76 feral druid, didn't even use bear form *_* Too easy.

Comment by Veora

Barely solo'd as a 75 Ret pally, Used all my cooldowns until the cat came, died came back and nuked.

Comment by 224544

Did him solo today, as 77 Balance druid. Im mostly tier 6 healing geared. The way u do this as druid is to keep hots on urself, and use wrath, MF, IS. He dont hit too hard on u in caster, onlt for aroynd 2k every 2-3 sec;) GL

Clue

Comment by qaccy

Just soloed as an 80 shadow priest with the gear he hit 80 with (mix of quest blues and some badge gear). Backed up a bit during his pre-aggro speech, then proceeded to dot him up and burn him 'til har'koa showed up. When she did I popped fade to give her aggro then I just re-dotted and DPS'd him 'til he went down. No cooldowns used, no need for pots, didn't even have to come out of shadowform to heal. :D

Comment by Ohforf

Soloed as a 78 BM Hunter. I died once though. And in the end was barely alive.

Comment by termight

Soloed as a level 78 protection warrior, toughest solo yet. had to time my spell-reflects for incinerate, and do the best I can to burn him down until the Leopard goddess showed up. Even with her heals it was tough. I liked the part when she yells something about letting "THEM" go even though it was just me, hehe. I died at about 3% and the Goddess finished him off.

Comment by 251905

Quite easily soloed as a 78 ret pally. I did have to use Divine Shield and Lay on Hands but that was to be expected. Also as a herbalist I had some help with Lifeblood.

Comment by Marymoon

For resto shamans:
It´s possible to solo this depending on your gear.
I soloed at lvl 77 with lvl 70 gear 4/6 tier 6.
Just try to kite him around the room and do the most damage possible, flame shock/lava burst and earth shield on will help a lot, aslo searing totem and mana spring.

When he stun´s you, its a good thing to have mana spring down you gonna need mana, keep trying to dps him and heal yourself. If you die, you can use your ankh, mine was down, so i just ran back quickly while he was fighting the Cat, just take your fire elemental down and dps him ( flame shock, lava burst all the time) hard before the cat dies, and you´re done.

Comment by 92643

I soloed this easily as a feral druid. What I did was stay in bear form and take the hits until he stuns you and the cat comes in, then hit shadowmeld. Let the cat get some aggro, then switch to cat and dps him down. Was EASY!

Comment by 10334

For Blizzard, 3-man group is code for "You can actually solo this if you don't suck."

Comment by 84945

Solo'd as a level 77 Dk. Only cooldowns I really used was icebound fortitude and anti-magic shell. Death strike was more than enough to keep me alive. I summoned my ghoul to sacrifice it but it got killed by some aoe since I forgot to sacrifice it since my health was so high. This was easier than most other elites I've done so far, maybe they've just nerfed it?

Comment by 27627

Opens the quest Unfinished Business, which in turn leads to
Gal'darah Must Pay in Gundrak.

Comment by 99969

Solo'd as a 77 Prot Pally. I had to use a mana pot near the end, and had probably around 700 health left when he went down. The cat's HOT was enough to keep me up combined with Seal of Light and Judgement of Light.

Just threw everything I had at him. I also had to use Divine Plea (twice) and still had to use the mana pot at the end lol. I have no +INT gear so I only have about 5k mana.

He is immune to stun, and silence. When you get him down to about 3/4 the cat appears and helps you. She cannot tank. She provides extra DPS and a HOT to help keep you up.

3 Players suggested? Pfffsssh, I'm a prot pally! :)

Comment by Fallerup

soloed as a blood DK.. took a while and some healing pots but I soloed both the quests :) this and the preQ

Comment by 249147

Haha, another easy solo. I did this just now as a 77 arcane mage. All you have to worry about is kiteing him in the beginning after around 75% har'koa comes in. You might die because har'koa won't be able to get aggro so once you come back just hug har'koa for the heal and blast the guy since most likely you won't be able to take the aggro away.

Comment by 240612

Easily soloable by a 77 balance druid. Simply Moonfire/Insect Swarm and cheetah form kite him around until about 70%, then the big cat comes and he pulls aggro from you eventually. Then you just unload while the cat tanks it.

Comment by Haahdek

Solo stuff for a lvl 76 blood DK. Used Frost Presence on the fight, started out with popping Icebound Fortitude for taking the early damage, when that wore off used mark of blood combined with vampiric blood for maximizing heals. Also used Blood Strike on occasion. That left me with 60% hp when the dialogue started. After that it was a piece with harkoa healing and all. GL :)

Comment by 251701

Soloed as 79 rogue without dying.
Popped all Cds at first phase. At 87.493 hp the boss went invulnerable stunning me.

Then Har'Koa joins the fight, Keep doing as much dps as you can (stay in safe hp range do not risk too much) and then Vanish.
Aggro switches to Har'Koa, so you can safely dps. Sometimes the boss will blast you with dot, be sure to be in range of tranquillity for recovering health.
Cloak of Shadow the dot then bandage, use eventually a pot, and you won't die at all :-)

Enjoy!

Comment by 95333

Soloed as 77 Boomkin.
Gear is quite icky tbh, s2 + quest blues/greens.

I found that aggro did not switch to the cat after it came. Prophet still attacked me, so...

For all you nightelves out there looking to solo, just nuke to ~75%(blow all your cooldowns here, kite if you want but I didn't for fear of aggroing the nearby mobs) and Shadowmeld after the cat comes, let it tank then start DPS again. Careful not to aggro the mob off the cat!

Hunters can Feign Death and Priests can Fade, anything to let him hit the cat and not you. Cat is tough, could take the damage until I dps'ed the mob down. Only things that died during the fight were my treants. :)

Good Luck!

Comment by Rednights

This fight is can be solo'ed as long as you can bring him to 75%. So blow all your CDs and trinkets early. Once at 75% the Cat God thing will come to help. At this point you can just safely die due to AOE and run back as the fight will continue. The Cat will have aggro, just take it nice and slow to the end.

Comment by Neepall

77 Haunt warlock with 1730 +damage(flasked) 14,5k hp 12k mana (the blessing from the troll village .I.e. Kings) I tried in my pvp gear at first, but forgot to have my pet out for soul link so I actually died quite fast in spite of having 20k hp with kings and 1250 +damage. So went to pve gear to kill the mob faster. Hence drain tanking better.

Made it to the phase two drain tanking with about 40% health and almost oom. Had to chug a potion before the stun though. When the cat came she could not pull aggro off of me so I had to continue to drain tank.

Finished the fight with 5k hp and 3k mana after dark pacting some.

Comment by 258056

77 lvl druid feral and i soloed it really easily. only you need to is to stay alive until his 70% HP. then use any trick you have to send you off combat. let the tiger tank him and thats it.

Comment by 242164

Solo hunter BM Lvl 78, forgot to heal pet and died.. but was able to res and run back and kill him. Har'Koa held aggro while i ran back from GY =D

Comment by Bohrizan

Soloed easy on my 77 Blood Death Knight.

Threw Mark of Blood on him and started off with my usual rotation of Plague Strike, Icy Touch, Obliterate, and Heart Strike. Kept that rotation going until I would get low on health, then just use Death Strike and Rune Tap every time it came up.

I also recommend keeping up your Anti-Magic Shell whenever you can, as his fire damage hurts. A lot. Make sure you start with a ghoul, and sacrifice it if you need to. Another nice tip if you need a thorough heal is to hit him with Chains of Ice, get a good distance away, and bandage. Has saved my ass loads of times. :)

Comment by 248563

Solo'd very easily as a 77 Blood DK. Frost stance of course, and just make sure you're rotating as to be able to Death Strike as much as possible and bring a health pot just in case.

Comment by 135362

Balance druid solo'd just get him to 75% then u can die as many times u want and run back and forth from GY just make sure to be alive when he actually dies ;)

Comment by mazhop

I tried this as a 77 BM with a gorilla. If you have a DPS pet, I highly doubt this will be soloable.

After reading this I thought it would be harder than it actually was. I was well fed, took the buff from the local god and am wearing mostly greens from northrend.

Basically, hunter marked, sent pet in, waited till he took one hit then hit mend pend, last stand, rapid fire and BW to get him down quickly. If you have intimidation, use it, he was stunned for 3 seconds and that makes a huge difference. I just spammed steady shot, also spamming mend pet.

Once you're stunned, I was able to gather health back with spirit bond. I didn't even use a health pot.

When the cat comes in, move within her HoT but far enough you can still hit from ranged. Gorilla did a great tanking job, but keep healing the pet and spam steady until kill shot pops up then hit that, Kill hit for 4.5k and that took him out. I had about 1k health left starting with 10K and mana about 7.5K.

Good Luck!

Comment by 259699

Here's my experience on my 77 pally
Cat joined in, i died, cat was about to die,
now i decided to res myself and got a critical error.
After 3 tries of logging in i decided to go to repair wow thingy and it worked.
When i got back in the cat was alive and i nuked the rest of the prophet.
weird

Comment by 177774

Soloed---but not without dying---as a 78 enhancement shaman in terribad gear (all greens with 2 or 3 blue quest rewards).

Let the earth elemental tank it til it died, then popped Feral Spirit and Shamanistic Rage. This kept me alive long enough to get Har'koa into the fight. Unfortunately, her arrival doesn't reset his threat table. Nevertheless, I was tanking it and staying alive til I ran out of mana to heal myself and died when he was around 50%. Blew self-rez, then burned Shamanistic Rage again to get mana back. Kept myself healed and used Feral Spirit when it came back up (though it probably wasn't entirely necessary to do so).

Throughout the fight, I used Grounding Totem whenever it was up, but I'm not sure if Earthshock could interrupt anything he cast.

Comment by 161888

Soloed as a 78 feral druid with the 10% stat buff. Didin't use the dieing trick, just tanked him all the way til the end, had to Barkskin x2, Berserk and Survival Instincts though. Died after killing him cos of the dot he left.

Comment by 261696

I solo'd this as a Affliction Lock (53/17/0). Lvl 79.

Main idea for a lock is having soul link with your VW up, and fel domination at the ready. I was able to down it to 80k range no problem. Once you break the threat threshold of the VW prepare to sack it. The sacrifice lasts a fair amount of time, and you can deal a lot of damage with your DoTs in full rotation.

I used Corruption, haunt, SL, CoA, Corr, Immolate, Shadow Bolt. then recast as needed, as my rotation.

Sadly the ally doesn't retain threat, so you'll be taking a beating, but I only had to use a Demonic Healthstone. It is challenging but a doable solo as a lock.

Remember to use death coil for the instant health.

Comment by 64110

Managed to solo this as an Unholy DK without Anti-magic Zone & without dying either. Few good tips, you should not use your ghoul for DPS at all - use it as an extra health potion. Keep the diseases up, death strike when it's up.

As the battle goes on you'll be able to get 2x death strikes in a row which will mostly negate everything the prophet does to you until the end when the stacked dots kick in.

You should have some buffs that can up your health though, some of the magic Prophet uses will hurt a lot. Once Har'koa comes it will be your dps and will provide some healing but dont forget to use your death strikes.

Comment by 229696

I soloed him as a 77th sub Rogue...I DPS'ed him and blew one pot before Har'Koa joined the fight. I died after the cat joined then ran back and found them still fighting. I dps'ed and ended up blowing one more pot before Har'Koa died and was just able to squeak by killing the boss without dying.

Comment by 170832

easily soloed as an 80 demo lock, felguard tanked it as i smashed him with shadowbolts.

Comment by MagicCookies

If you happen to die after Har'koa joins the fight, it's still possibly to release and run back to your body and continue fighting for quest credit. As long as your alive and standing there, you'll get the quest.

Comment by 81639

Newly dinged 78 Balance Druid in blue wotlk-gear with & lvl 76-spells here.

Had a near-death-experience here. I buffed up to the max with all the blessings from the statues and my own buffs, plus food and applied spelldmg to my staff. Constantly healed myself in normal form, had 1300 hp when I managed to burn his ass to 75%, he stunned me and proceeded to talk some crap.

The cat appears, the prophet oneshots me, the cat gains aggro. I run back as fast as I can, I let the cat tank through the fight, but apparently I moved away a bit too far (in stress thinking I've been silenced before I regained my senses) moved forth and the cat died with the prophet down to 20k hp. I nuked away like a crazy popping trinkets once again, had 500 hp when he died, the quest completed and I died off of a buff the prophet gave me.

In the end I didnt find anything special to do to him more than nuke with all you've got, no special tactic, just heal yourself for all youre worth and keep them dots/casts up and hope for the best.

Just had to run back to the camp to talk to the cat for turn-in, at first I was afraid I was going to have to do it once more - so don't worry if this happens... Hell yeah, this sure is a test of power. A real adrenaline-kick!

Comment by 83904

soloed it at level 80 night elf arms warrior, no healing. i just damaged him enough to har'kora did come help. shadowmelded, then dps'ed him

Comment by 179197

Solo'd as a 75 Blood DK

Comment by Meera

Solo'ed as rogue, full epic naxx gear. I had to make one dismantle, and a evasion then the event started and Har'koa appeared. After that, hitted vanish, start again. Try to be near Har'koa cause the aspect will start casting aoe heals and dps as much as you want.

Comment by Fallerup

people downrate comments for fun now? its perfectly valid, everything that's been said. I did solo this quest @ 77 as did many other people, why downrate the comment?

Comment by Donut

If you happen to die during the fight, you will get credit for the kill if Har'Koa kills him.

Comment by 120995

I haven't seen this mentioned, but the attack "Flickering Flames" is probably the hardest part of the fight if you don't counter it. You must stand near Har'koa and his aura will cleanse it. otherwise it stacks stupid high and you die very fast.

Comment by Hellsbelle

Soloed as Unholy DK. Was a very easy fight, kept my health above 60% at all times just abusing death strike. Put on all my tanking gear and used ghoul for dps I also got the Blessing of Kings type buff from the altar in the camp before leaving which game me a good stam boost.

I basically rotated Bone Shield and IBF when required.

Comment by BabyToe

Soloed as a 77 Prot Warrior in Greens/Blues, died when the prophet was at like 40k hp, but then ran back while Har'Koa tanked him and finished him off.

Comment by 62632

Easily solo'd as 79 blood spec dk. Just kept on doing death strikes had no trouble at all. Had decent gear (the savage saronite set) so a lot of hp. Ezcakes

Comment by 63855

Solo'd as a decently geared Prot Warrior at 76. Key thing is to save your Spell Reflect for his Incinerates. Then LoL as he burns himself to death. Also save Enraged Regen for when you really need it. Pref when he's below 30%. Then just pop Last Stand and Enraged Regen and heal yourself back up.

Comment by 223375

How can there be this many posts and no one mentions the Flickering Flames dot?

Here's how to do it as a 76 Resto Druid wearing half cloth and half leather caster gear (all blues).

Phase 1 (burn him to 75% asap!)
Keep Rejuv, Regrowth & triple Lifebloom going as needed. NS+HT or Swiftmend if you get too low. Keep Moonfire up and spam Wrath. You may need to Innervate in this phase - do it and get phase 2 fast!

Phase 2 (outlast him)
Unlike other methods, I found that Shadow Meld was not helpful - my big kitty kept dying on me for some reason (cannot be healed!). So I just tanked it! Keep your auto-attack going for Omen of Clarity procs (I hope you have a quick dagger). Keep your Hots up like in phase 1, but here you don't need to dps as much. I only kept a Moonfire going and let the cat tear him up (positioned at his rear). I was able to outlast his dps and the annoying FLICKERING FLAMES that no one else mentioned (STACKING FIRE DOT! BEWARE!).

Side Note: After several trial runs with various methods attempted (including kiting which failed miserably), it seems that the Flickering Flames were applied more often the further away you stood from the summoning circle. I could be wrong! It just seemed that way. On my kill attempt I stood in the very middle and got no more than 6 to 8 stacks, which I could easily out-heal. When I stood towards the outside of the area it was much worse. Your attempts may vary...

Anyways, good luck!

Soloable as a level 77 Blood Death knight

Comment by 269980

Solo'd as a lvl 77 BM hunter with a cat from Sholazar basin, my cat ended up dying with the boss at like 5k hp so i just kited him around until he died.

Comment by 270723

Well, I've done this one solo as a lvl 76 Death Knight (Blood Specced). As soon as you are dead, doesnt mean the Quest is failed, if the kitty cat is still alive and he kills it, the Quest is still completed, so I say it is easily solo-able

Comment by 270850

Confirmed soloable as 77 prot pally. just used seal of light and blessing of sanctuary. once cat arrives he goes down pretty quick.

Comment by 114927

I solo'ed this as a Mut Rogue in decent gear. Some epics some blues. I did die however and ran back and the big cat was still fighting but I at least had no aggro so I could unload all I wanted.

For those trying this solo or not. Just remember dieing doesn't mean you fail the quest. Get your butt back there.

Comment by kjeksomanen

Whalebone Carapace > This. And it's easily gained.

And as for this quest, it was very easy as a blood spec'ed Death Knight lvl 77. Ghoul + normal dps + some rune tap & death strike did the trick.

Comment by 249158

Soloable by a 76 elemental shaman. Fairly easy just kinda kited him around a pillar.

Although I did die during the fight, the tiger was able to not die while i ran back to my corpse. So i ended up killing the prophet partially, dieing, then coming back and finishing the job. Worked out fairly well

Comment by Ltqi

You don't lose durability from dying in this fight for some reason so don't feel bad about dying and coming back once cat comes.

Comment by mmpedersen

By the way, if you die during this fight, it's not hard to corpse run, since the GY is pretty close and Har'Koa can hold the troll off pretty good.

I soloed as Blood DK, died once and corpse runned though...

Phase 1: Summon, dps dps dps... had to use Vampiric Blood and GotN, plus double rune tap and Medallion of Heroism.

Phase 2: Har'Koa comes to help, which is very good... had to use some more Rune Taps, and I even had to summon a ghoul, just to blow it up for the healing. I corpse runned once, when both Har'Koa and the troll was still alive. I dps'd him down along with the Tiger God and got it done.

I think that if I had done it in Frost Presence instead of Unholy, I would've survived...

Easy and fun quest, get it done!

Comment by 124958

Also note, when Har'koa spawns and joins the battle, stand directly next to her. When the Prophet does the AoE Dancing Flames attack, Har'koa will cast a spell which looks like Tranquility, which will heal you up and seemingly dispell the flame effects on you.

Alternatively you can die of course, because as stated the graveyard isnt that far away, but least it can save you a few gold in repairs.

Comment by 278887

After dieing twice, I found a cheap way around this. If you start the fight and make it as far as Har'koa, you can die and run back. As long as you rez before the fight ends or Har'koa dies, you should get credit.

Comment by orloxgr

Affliction Lock with no demonic brutality

SS your shelf, apply dots do couple of drains till the stun, apply dots again, die, get up, eat, get your pet, kill him. so simple :P

It doesnt matter if big kitty dies. She is a god after all :P

Comment by 279882

Solo'd with my Blood/ Unholy DK. 89% hp left at the end of it. Good luck.

Comment by 94696

soloed as a lvl 76 blood dk, had to use runic healing pot, medallion of heroism, 2 imp rune taps, and about 15 deathstrikes, in the end i could not get the 5 stacked debuff off of me and that finished me off after the fight, no food on me >.<

Comment by 88677

Solo'ed at 79 unholy DK. I'm pure dps spec, meaning no anti-magic zone, no improved anti-magic shield, no improved dodge or stuff like that. All quest gear, except for Kaluak rep chest.

Bone shield, altar buff (+6 stats), and +30 crit/stam food buff. Pounded away and spammed death strike as much as possible. Was down to 77% hp when the kitty showed up.

My DK's a NELF, so I hit shadowmeld to drop aggro and let the kitty tank, then just beat away and he died pretty fast.

Main trick is: Whatever you can do to drop aggro and let the kitty tank, do it. The whole reason my DK is a NELF is specifically to be able to do that - since DKs have no aggro drop otherwise.

Soloed as a 78 Shadowpriest

Tactics: Get Blessings of Zim'Torga and Zim'Rhuk, the best healing potion you can get and some food that gives you crit. The crit will be needed for the first part of the fight.

Summon the prophet. While he talks, cast Power Word: Shield, then Renew and enter Shadowform. Cast Vampiric Touch while he approaches you, your shield can take it. Soon as it is cast, start "kiting" him while you cast Vampiric Embrace, Shadow Word: Pain and Devouring Plague. Pray that one of them stuns him, it helps, just like the last few ticks of Renew does :-D
Once they have been cast, you can renew your Shield and start Mind Flay on him. Use Power Word: Death and maybe Mind Blast if you feel like it, but not needed. Just get as much damage in as possible. Drink the potion as soon as you have sustained more damage than the max amount it can give you.
When you get stunned and he starts the dialog, exit shadowform. Spam shield, then immideatly heal yourself to max and Fade every now and then until Har'Koa has aggro. when that happens, enter Shadowform and blast away as you like.

I finished the first part with less than 500hp (total of 12778) like this and Har'Koa died only a few seconds before the prophet, so it can be done.

Comment by spartan2600

soloable 80 frost mage. at 3/4 health, the prophet gives a little speech, and harkoa shows up. harkoa then tanks for you, but the prophet casts some spells on you still. if you die, they keep fighting so just run back and pick up where you left off.

its much easier than it seems at first.

Comment by 144765

Just soloed it, I'm a 76 hunter BM... i died one, but the big cat goddess was still fighting by the time I got back. Might have not died if I had stayed by the big cat goddess because she heals u. And yes she is a she!

Quest didn't say complete on screen when we killed the dude, but it showed complete in quest log and we could turn it in just fine.

Comment by Arkhangel

Solo'd as a 76 ret paladin, very shady. Used everything I had, blew wings to drop him fast, had to LoH and runic health pot, fight lasted long enough to bubble at the end. Just stood right in front of him and wailed away the entire time, had 2k health (of 10.8k total) left when he died.

Comment by Qandy

I managed to solo both this part and the beginning quests with ease as a 77 Blood DK and never went below 40% HP. Blow all your CD's at the beginning on this fight. At around 75%ish he will stun you and Har'koa will come help you. I managed to not die and I tanked him the whole fight. Spam Death Strike whenever it's up and keep your poisons up. I was able to pop my two trinkets twice this fight, so that helped a little at the end. My gear consists of Northrend quest greens/blues and a few dungeon pieces.

Comment by 246461

If you re dead, don't release if you see that Har'Koa is still able to kill him.
If Har'koa kills him then, your quest will get completed...

Comment by 289307

I just soloed this guy as a lvl 76 Unholy DK with mixed blue/green gear. To get him down to 75% was relatively easy (took me about 20 secs). Switched to frost presence before i even started and spammed the hell outa Death Strike. Before i even started the fight i found the location of the cemetery so if i die i know how to get back fast. When the cat showed up i switched to Blood Presence and started hitting my trinkets any chance i would get. Finished up in a ghoul form with time to spare to get to cemetery and die there so my return to body wasnt a lengthy one (either way it wouldn't have been). One word of advice for DKs is keep the Frost Presence on till the finish that, could have saved me but at the end I didnt mind.

Comment by 249934

For Holy Priests: I soloed it at level 80 with blues. As written above, the fight has two phases:
Phase 1 (till 75% health) is simple - keep DoTs and Holy Fire on him, while shielding and healing yourself. No trouble there.
Phase 2 has two problems you should be aware of:
- Prophet casts Flickering Flames DoT which stacks and can't be dispelled by Dispel Magic. You need to stay close to Har'koa who dispels it.
- If the fight takes too long, the Prophet kills Har'koa and the whole event resets. Har'koa cannot be healed and the time is not much long. It took me three attempts until I realized that I have to forget about healing myself (except occasional Renew) and concentrate full firepower on the Prophet.

Comment by 37560

Extremely easy to solo for a rogue of any spec.

Prophet himself is immune to stuns, blow evasion and spam your skills, be it SS or Shiv. At 90 or 80% he will cast a spell which will lock you down in a stun. There will be dialogue and Har'Koa appears, the giant cat you've been helping out all these whiles. Throw Vanish when your health is 30-40% and let the cat tank for you. Feint often because Har'Koa deals very little damage and hits slow.

Phase 2, Prophet does a 500 HP tick DOT AOE. He also leaves debuffs which increase fire damage taken, CLoS as necessary, but Har'Koa is capable of healing 650 from time to time. I suspect he also dispels debuffs but I cannot confirm that.

Possibly only possible on a rogue. Prophet's AoE damage ticks will knock a Shadowmeld out of commission and he will resume aggro on you. I don't recommend NEs trying to shadowmeld, but welcome to try and post results.

Comment by 290293

soloed easily as a 77 blood DK. Blew all cds on 1st phase. easy sailin after that

Comment by gaibban

Don't forget to grab Blessing of Zim'Rhuk and Blessing of Zim'Torga as needed!

Comment by 152517

soloed as a 78 frost spec human Dk, i got the buff from the god at Zim, +10% to stats, tanked it in frost presence, kept IT, PS, BS, DS rotation up, and also hit RS and FS when i could. also popped icebound fortitude. I died after the boss did because i didnt know that the fire debuff stays with you but otherwise it was an ok fight.

my stats for the fight : 18.4k health, 18.6k armor

edit= for those that may not know

IT-icy touch
PS-plague strike
BS-blood strike
DS-death strike
RS-rune strike
FS-frost strike

guess i shoulda just typed it out -.-, oh well

Comment by 279627

Tried this today with a fellow guildie, but it bugged right when he went immune and Har'koa never showed up. Nothing we could do about it, but we did level our weapon skills for a while as Akali never attacks. :P

Comment by 148017

Solo'ed as a lvl 79 haunt/SL lock with imp out (mostly S4 geared).
Use demon armor and heal yourself as much as you can (siphon life + drain life + haunt must be used as much as possible). Dark pact to get more mana. I used soulshatter but kept on draining life so I kept the aggro for the whole fight. Just had to use 1 healthstone and I had the +10% stats buff from the statue. Pretty easy.

Comment by 292310

If you die and run back quickly enough and the cat and the troll are still fighting u can rez right b4 he dies and it counts as quest completed....i did this at 76 by myself

Comment by 292331

easily solo'd as a level 80 Affliction warlock. just DoT him up and drain tank.

Comment by 266403

Solo'd as a level 77 Unholy DK. Har'koa comes to help you shortly after the fight starts. I had to pot once and i'm not sure i even had to just wanted to be safe :D, but other than that he isn't too bad. You need to fight him in the building that's shown on your map to the northeast of the altar of mam'toth.

Comment by Ingek

Soloed this at level 80 as a hunter, pretty easily too. Just keep mend pet up and let your pet keep aggro and it should be no problem.

Comment by 45137

just to have the class in here, soloed as a 76 sl/gf warlock. above statements all hold true, stay close to Har'koa as soon as he spawns for the cleanse, and as for warlock specific I just popped CoW, SL and Corruption, health funneling alternated with drain life once the cat is there to keep the fg alive. In the end, the fg did die, but with the cat holding aggro it wasn't an issue.

One thing though, once the fight ends, Har'koa runs off pretty fast, and you could end up like me with a tick for roughly 1k on yourself, going for another 15secs. Countered by eating, but in case you mount up and run off :p

Comment by TomFace

As a lvl76 boomkin i was able to solo it, just watch to be in the tranquility, and keep yourself alive with healing.

Comment by 256123

Solo'd as a 75 Holy Paladin. I died once and came back to see Har'koa still engaging the prophet. This was very difficult, as holy pallies do the least amount of damage, and they have the lowest health out of the three pally specs. The key is to know when to use your bubble to dispel the debuff before Har'koa spawns. I recommend that you use it when you have the debuff stacked 8 - 10 times on you. Just make sure you stay above 2000 health and you should be fine.

Comment by Dmsnova

soloed as 78 mage.

Comment by Noobaldo

Solo'd 77 Balance Druid

Poped Trees and Starfall early, moonfire, IS, Wrath>>eclipse>>>starfire crts.

Stunned, Big kitty comes, run around and heal for awhile while the cat gets agro, moonfire and IS up the whole time, wen big kitty has agro well enough, starfire him down... guy actually killed Hak, but i moonfire spammed him down, didnt need innevate or pots.

Comment by 162059

Soloed it on a 76 BM hunter w/ core hound as pet, gotta keep your pet alive, I had to use heart of the phenox and lick your wounds onece each and i used mend pet at least 10 times but once the cat comes its really easy

Comment by tommy5547

soloed this too without dying, feign death once, mend pet all the time and do like the ppl above tells you too = blow trinkets in the beginning.
79 hunter, blue gear mostly.

Comment by 131549

Swirlyeyes posted a great strategy for rogues. I found that after Phase 2 started, Har'koa held aggro well after I vanished at 40% and healed. I was able to get in 4 or 5 good backstabs before Akali turned on me...and by then it was too late...for him.

Comment by Darkz0r

I used Invisibility, totally wiped my threat.

If you just want to know if this quest is soloable: YES.

Comment by bron

Questhelper shows an incorrect turn-in location. Quest is turned in at Har'koa at 60.57.

Comment by 300146

Solo as a 76 Warlock - affliction spec.
As a note, he is not: fearable, and can't use CoE (Curse of Exhaustion).

Phase 1: Your main priority is to find a way to keep aggro off you long enough to get Akali below 75%. I did this buy using my Infernal. Let him take aggro (as he has a good 20k+ HP), and DOT him down with a few nukes nearer to 75. Make sure when you do this, stand to the southern most edge of the steps. I made the mistake of standing right in the middle when phase 2 started, by getting hit for 2k and dieing.

Phase 2: Har'koa comes and acts as your tank. As others have stated, you can die and run back, and cat will still be fighting. Stand next to the cat, and you wont get more than 4-5 of the fire DOTs on you. Throughout, the aim is to keep replenishing health as the fire attacks hurt a bit after the long run. but not to aggro. When both Akali and Har'koa are getting down to 10-15% hp, nuke the hell out of it. I finished it the same time har'koa died.

To finish the quest, return to Har'Koa at Zim'Torga, in which you will be given Unfinished Business for the next quest.

As a smaller note: This quest got me the Zul'Drak quest achievement, (without doing the quest to go to Amphitheater of Anguish from Dalaran)

Comment by 7450

Soloable as feral druid aswell, just nuke him quick to 75% with bear berserking, then heal up with tranq quicky and shadowmeld, the guy will then go for the cat. Then just to catform and nuke while spamming Cower.

Comment by 298779

Soloed as 76 blood spec dk. Wore tanking gear and went in frost presence, still got hit for just over 1k each time. pop cooldowns early, rune tap, mark of blood and icebound fortitude. Once he hits 75% there will be some time while he converses with har'koa during which your cds will continue, so once that was over my rune tap and icebound fortitude were up again. In the end had to use 1 pot to avoid dying, had about 30% hp left at the end. stand next to the cat. I ended up tanking the whole thing because I was too impatient to wait for the cat to build aggro.

Comment by silentshott

ez solo, if u die u can still run back and fight, and get completion, if Har'koa is there, Good luck!

Comment by 303065

Soloable @ lvl 80 by Ret Paladin

For those without Coords, Here is a Map of where you need to go.

Don't worry if at first it seems like your loosing.
You only need to get the Prophet of Akali down to 75% health.
At that point he will cast Akali's Stun and Har'Koa Will appear to help you.
Removing the stun affect, and casting Quenching Mist Which will heal you for 650 every 2 sec. Making the rest of the fight considerably easier.

Note: Immune to Hammer of Justice

Comment by addohm

Solo'd as a 76 Draenai Blood\Unholy (25/0/42) DK. Although I didn't have to use my racial HoT. Just put up magic shield every time he casts (when your cooldown is up), use your healing talents often. Use IBF, Mark, Rune Tap, Death Tap, etc. Manage your cooldowns (as you will have to when your tanking at 80) and this is an easy fight.

Comment by Okrim

Easily soloable as lvl 77 moonkin.

Just dot and kite him, heal yourself. He moves a bit faster than 100% speed, so use your travel form. At 80% he will stun you and Har'koa will come, I shadowmelded at this point. Har'koa tanked him for the rest of the fight. Stay close to Har'koa, she will remove fire dot stacks and heal you for 650 every 2 secs. Just be careful to not pull aggro and that's all.

Comment by katten

You can be dead and still get complete.
I nuked him to 75%
(almost died, but the debuff went gone and I got stunned during the sequence stuff).
The tiger gets up, I nuked all I could, died, runned back, nuked a bit more, boss was then around 3%.. I stayed dead and watched the tiger killed him (since I knew I wouldnt make it back in time)

still got the complete.. :)
So its soloable with any class IF you can burst him down to 75% befor you die the first time.

Comment by shohanu

Just solo'd this is a 77 feral druid in mostly blues and like 2 greens. the trick is like everyone has been saying pop every cooldown u have right away and get him down to 75% (88k hp roughly) health and there will be a semi long (~1 min) cut scene then u will die. just take a casual walk back to your corpse and har'koa will be killing him, i went wrong way for like 10 seconds then ran back and he was at 45% hp so theres no rush. when you are fighting though, stay near har'koa because his mist wil heal you and remove the dancing flame de-buff

Hope this helps!

Comment by 194611

Solo'ed as 78 Unholy DK. Just pop an Anti-Magic Shield when he starts casting things, and then your other Anti-Magic Shell as well. Finished in ghoul form.

Comment by 94502

Interesting note: If you sit there and watch someone else do the fight, you'll get the flickering flames dot, so keep your distance.

Comment by 300076

I was following this strategy and mucked it up rather badly apparently, because I died. I alt-tabbed to wowhead to see if I had done something wrong, and not long after I heard something dying. Alt-tabbing back, I saw that Har'koa had killed the prophet solo from a solid 30-35% health, and I had completed the quest.

Comment by Flibble

Easily soloed as a 79 Elemental Shaman in quest greens, blues, and a couple leftover KZ/badge epics. Pop your Fire Elemental to take him to 75%. Once Har'koa appears, Bloodlust, then swap Lesser Healing Wave into your normal cast rotation where you normally do Lightning Bolt. Cake.

Comment by Jamppa

I soloed this today with lvl 80 frost mage. As of patch 3.0.8 it seems that you can't resume the fight after dying so you're going to need an aggro dump ability (invisibility, feign death) to solo this. Here's my advice yo frost mages.

Phase 1: as posted above put on frost barrier and fire ward, and summon water elemental to chew his hp down while you kite with blink and spam frost lance and fire blast, if you're lvl 80 you can use mirror image to get his attention off you for a second. Don't use cold snap to get another elemental if you don't really need to. The extra dps is needed in phase two.

Phase 2. This is down to surviving his aoe, which he does all the time. You just need to dps him down before the aoe kills you. Har'koa heals you a little so that will help somewhat. Immediately pop invisibility when the stun fades, so that your aggro is dumped and har'koa will tank him for you. at this point you should have cold snap, icy veins, and dps trinkets you might have and mirror image if you didn't need it in phase one. Pop all those and dps him down with your elemental while using frost barrier and fire ward each time they're up. Use a potion if you need to.

Comment by 104949

Soloed as a 77, 51/17/0 undead warlock.

Just put every dot you have on him & drain life after.

Very cool twist when he hits 75%

If you die when Har'Koa is there then quickly release and run back takes only 30 seconds. Har'Koa will still be in combat with him! This is how i killed him makes the fight soloable...kind of.

Comment by 277523

I solo'd this on my shaman. I submitted a screeny, we'll see if it goes through. Just do NOT blow all your cool downs at the beginning of the fight. Any class. I did it and my first fight I spent the rest of the fight casting lesser healing wave as much as possible WITHOUT spirit wolves (OP OP OP), shamanistic rage, and Blood Fury. I died on my first fight.

2nd fight I toughed it out till he drops to 90 percentish health? When the panther jumped in I dropped spirit wolves, shamanistic rage, and Blood Fury. Plowed this guy down just seconds after Shamanistic rage ended it's 15 second duration :P

The only special trick he seems to yield is the long duration stun at 90% health, at which he does not attack you AND when the fight was over I noticed I had a DoT that ticked for 1k dmg every 3 seconds? I think. I mounted up and saw the DoT ticking and started spamming lesser healing wave lol. But I lived.

PS shamans, your Earth Elemental pet would also be pretty viable in this fight. I blew mine on the first fight... The stun duration ruined most of it anyway. But could use your Earthy for the beginning of the fight then switch to spirit wolves when the cat joins in. You won't die :)

Comment by 152012

Easily soloed as an 80 afflic lock. No 80 gear, just mostly 75+ blues. Summoned VW, sent him in, popped all my cooldowns (trinkets + orc racial) and started up my whole DoT rotation. burnt him down to 90% in a matter of seconds, then watched the cut scene. Damage and Drain Life fast enough, and Har'Koa won't be able to pull aggro. The AoE heal he casts will remove a stack of the fire debuff. Just burn him down fast and you should be fine. I got low and sacc'd my VW for his 8k shield, and did it easily. No death, only one health stone. Over all another easily soloed group quest for locks =P

Comment by 48659

If you happen to die late in the fight, you might be able to run back to your corpse and rez to finish since the big kitty will keep him engaged.

Comment by 53071

Easy solo as blood DK .
Start the fight and pop your 1 minute cooldowns and smack at him ..
After he stuns you , pop Dancing Runic Weapon and he dies pretty quickly .
Use your 1 minute cooldowns and Anti-Magic Shell when necessary.

Comment by 319165

When Har'koa if you die and you go ress, you can just stand on the side line and watch. Soloed it at lvl 75. Just try to stay alive until Har'koa comes to aid you, then the rest is very easy.

Comment by Chaxton

Level 80 hunter with a Worm pet here. Soloed him with a few flaws.

The worm pet has a stacking sunder armor that works with other sunders, and is just as good as a warrior's sunder. The worm has increased threat generation, being a Tenacity pet with improved growls and a taunt. There's also a nice skill that increases how much it is healed by.

Start the ritual to summon him like normal, and send the pet in. Let the pet get aggro while you only mend pet for the first part of the fight. You'll want to save your cooldowns. When he stuns you, prepare to go crazy, since the worm (or any other tank pet you have) will have aggro still. Harkoa can't match a tenacity pet's aggro, so my worm and I were stuck with aggro through the fight. As a hunter, Har'Koa's buff that weakens the flame debuff didn't reach me when I was far off, so I had to run over. I nearly died here because of it (1k damage per 3 sec for 12 seconds, kept restacking).

If you soloed the previous quest as a hunter, you most certainly can solo this one. Just make sure your pet keeps aggro and that you stand near Harkoa (East side of the altar). This was done at level 80, but my gear is around a 77 level.

Comment by 323510

Just soloed as 78 retri pala.

I'm draenei and herbalist so I used both Gift of the Naaru and Lifeblood in phase 1.
Also some luck on Holy Light critting and proccing Sheathe in p1.

Phase 2 was easy tho, had to use bubble to bandage and healup towards the end.
Also popped wings in the beginning of phase2 and he burned down pretty fast.

Comment by 323980

I concur, totally easy as an Unholy DK. Frost Pres, DPS gear, wasn't a problem.. in fact I accidentally SSed more than I DSed.. and still came out in the clear. Midway through the fight you get stunned, a nice little talk, and then your kitty pal whose name I forget comes and helps mow him down.

Comment by 324190

I've soloed this qs with lvl 76 demonology warlock. Used DoT's and shadow bolts while felguard was tanking boss.Health funel must be on constantly)
One more thing:would be nice to have a healthstone ore healthpotion with.Also,try not to grab aggro from minion:2-3 punches received = death.

Comment by 325257

Soloed as a 76 Shadowpriest - self buffed + fire protection pot

be sure to hit dispersal as he does the firey death thing under you

died once but just ran back - cat died but I managed to finsh him off

a bit of a pain - but doable

Comment by 301858

Nice strat swirlyeyes! Can confirm it works that way (without dying), being lvl77 myself.

tl;dr version:

- max burst dmg & evasion for 100%-75%
- at 75% there's a cutscene
- vanish when cat is infight
- dps away in range of the aoe heal/dispel, manage threat with faint

Being pvp-specced myself, I had to use evasion twice with prep burning him from 100-75%, pve spec should burn him faster anyways tho. Got a cheap flask from dunnowhere (120ap), Blessing of Zim'Abwa and Blessing of Zim'Torga.

Comment by 308289

Since by now everyoone knows its soloable, i'll just add something I found out while i killed him on my Druid.

I actually died in Phase 2 , so the Prophet started hittin on Har'Koa. So i released and ran back. The Kitty was on 5% the Prophet on 20% so i was able to heal my self and finish him of myself after Har'koa died.

So short version is : If u die, hurry up and go back u can continue the fight without failing the Quest

Comment by 313554

finaly soloed this as 76 prot warrior. wish i could tell you how i finaly did it since all the others didn't help me. i just gave it all i had, no pots but 2 healing trinkets i did die to do it. well the using the trinket earlie did help a little. maybe would help if i mentioned that i disarmed him when ever i could

Comment by 281570

This strat didn't work for me, since you have to get him to 75% and the first phase is when you take the most damage by far. I died several times, then tried blowing spirit wolves right away - made it very simple to get to 75%. After that, the cat spawns, but you still have aggro. I just stood there and healed myself through his damage until the cat had aggro, then used fire elemental totem and heroism and shamanistic rage and went to town. I used wind shocks if I started to catch up to the cat again and sat right on the cat to mitigate the fire dots. Pretty easy this way, the "nuking to 75% with no CDs, then going all out and burning him down with aggro" approach is much more difficult unless you have very good gear.

Comment by 283720

As a 78 Arcane Mage finding it extremely difficult to solo b/c he is immune to slows and does a pretty good amount of dmg.

Comment by Yraelcx

Solo'ed as a destro lock.

As mentioned in a comment before, it's crucial you bring the prophet down to 75% asap without taking too much damage from the Dancing Flames debuff (fire damage each 3 seconds, they hurt!). Around 75% he'll stunlock you, then Har'koa appears and will fight with you.

Import here is that you let Hark'oa tank (which mean you'll probably have to pop Soulshatter). From now on, stay very close to Har'koa, because he has Quenching Mist around him (similar to the druid Tranquility spell, but on a smaller scale), which heals you for 650 every 2 seconds and seems to occasionally dispell the flame debuff.

Keep it up with Lifetap + health potions + Health stone and you should be fine.

Good luck!

Comment by 225343

Easily soloable just doesn't cut it. I figured out by accident that if you die, you can take a short run back, finish him off, and still get credit. As long as Har'koa is alive, you can continue running back to your body.

I was doing this quest solo as a Fire Mage, when are more squishy than most other classes. At 75%, after Har'koa arrives he killed me, and I ran back. After that, I popped a potion and stayed close to Har'koa for the healing, and I managed to do fine.

Even if you're not as great of a player as these 76's soloing, or even if you just play a really squishy class, this becomes less of a "Can I survive long enough?" issue, and more of a DPS race to take him out before Har'koa dies.

Comment by UkeRocket

77 Elemental Shaman - Soloed Strat

Lay down totems off the start, and just alternate nuking and heal when you get down to 50% or so. Phase 1 will be over very fast.

Phase 2 starts after the stun, and when Har'koa comes in. At this point, I was hoping that I could have Har'koa pull aggro off me while I just healed and did no damage. Then decided it was taking too long so I did dmg, too.
-Keep up Flame Shock
-Pretty much only had time for keeping Lava Burst on cooldown
-Rest of the time was eaten up by me healing myself with LHW

With that strat, he went down VERY easily, though 85% to 0% took about 3 minutes with me only doing that minimal DPS I mentioned above.

In retrospect, I could have pulled out Earth Elem or Heroism to make it even easier, but I did neither, and frankly it didn't matter a lick.

TLDR: Elem shammies, you too, need not fear this quest. Have fun. :)

Comment by 336475

Soloed as an 80 resto druid, died with him having 10k health left but the big cat still attacked him and i got back in time, if your healing spec i suggest having someone else there cause healers cant do enough damage (Atleast i couldnt) but the rest of the quests are fairly simple and very soloable.

Comment by Otakahunt

I soloed this at level 76 as unholy DK. had to sacrifice 2 ghouls and didnt end up in ghoul form (died on the first try).

I used a runic heal potion and got about 3 crit heart strikes in the last phase...so lucky, the cat healed me also.

The long stun he does is good time to rest your cooldowns like i got my ghoul.

I soloed this as a 77 lock. Spec is 25/43/0.

I sent in my FG and laid Immo, SL, CoA and Corruption on him then just Health Funneled my FG taking time to reset my DoT's. Got him down to 75% in no time. After Har'koa showed up, I was having trouble keeping my FG and myself in good health, so I just started using Drain Life and said to hell with my pet. Once my pet died I had aggro, so he came over and killed me quick. I had my soulstone up, so I just popped back up and threw up a couple DoT's and used DL. By the time I started using DL, after I died, he was at around 8k health.

I don't have any uber gear, just greens and blues from questing and the occasional instance. I bet someone better geared or better played could keep themselves and pet up for the duration.

Good Luck.

Soloed with minor difficulty as an 80 Blood Elf Paladin Ret Spec'ed. I had to have all of the blessings of the Zul'Drak Gods, Blessing of Might, and had Seal of Command activated.

I had the following spells and items ready for the time:

Lay on Hands
Divine Shield
Runic Healing Potion

I just had Har'koa Tank, and I spanked with using Lay on Hands towards the end. Finished this bout with 1205/17504 Health remaining.

Comment by 341983

easy solo on a 78 BM hunter

used BW, KC and RF to burn him down to 75% then the cat came and it was easy mode

Comment by 204415

No longer soloable.

The cat isn't enough to take him down anymore - if left alone, he will kill the cat with at least 30-40k of health left.. If you die and run back (and rez), the AOE will kill you - it has a huge range. Was hitting mail for 400-500 every couple of seconds.

Comment by Tyro

I pulled this off solo as a 79 frost mage, but it took popping a couple pots as well as dying and running back. The graveyard isn't far, so if you're down while Har'koa is up it is still very doable.

Comment by 146819

This quest is soloable by pretty much everyone. It's little more than a matter of being able to survive until he loses 20-25% of his health (some people say he does the Stun at 80%, others say 75%). Pet classes and classes with high armor (all Plate-wearers and Balance/Feral Druids) are likely to have an easier time, but anyone who can find a way to survive his melee and Fire attacks until Har'koa shows up should do fine.
Just make sure to stand next to her (so you get the heal/dispel buff), and let her absorb as much of the Prophet's damage as possible.

Comment by 233928

+1 one for party of 3 = 1 high level that doesn't suck.

78 lvl frost DK ... got boss down to 3% before I got fried, watched the kitty finish him before releasing.

Comment by Ajelio

Solo'ed as a level 77 retri paladin and died in the end but Har'koa killed him so i got the quest

Comment by 257948

Easily soloed as a 77 unholy DK. Equipped tanking gear (mostly crafted and quest blues), used frost presence, and had the Blessing of Zim'Torga buff. Used death strike to keep my health topped off, sacrificed my ghoul for the health when he was almost dead from the fire damage, but other than that just burned him down as fast as possible. Would have been even faster if I hadn't used my gargoyle before his little speech (effectively wasting it).

Comment by 142383

At 70% harkoa comes and helps you... Soloed as a 78 Shaman. Died once and used reincarnation. Threat reseted and harkoa tanked it.

Comment by 258663

Gave me goosebumps when Har'koa jumped in :)

Comment by manlyshotz

Ok I must be missing something here. I've killed Akali 4 times now. Went back to Har'koa at Zim'Torga but Har'koa isnt here to return quest to. I've tried to return alive and in spirit form. Help?

Comment by 357068

solo'd with 77 warlock demonolgy spec, used felguard, healthstone, soul stone, runic healing pot. hit him with curse of agony, corruption, immolate then start incinerate until he puts his sheild on and har'koa comes after that he's prolly gonna kill ur pet and kill you simply let ahr'koa hit him for a lil bit then pop ur soulstone and revive felguard with fel domination sit and eat while har'koa is still hitting him once ready use metamorphosis and follow same procedurs from earlier shoudl ahve no problem

Comment by 159416

as a deep arcane mage, this guy was pretty easy to take out. slow him and his speed will be reduced by 60% :D. at which point its simple cycle of arcane blasts, arcane barrages or missile barrage. harkoa didnt even need to show up :P

Comment by Eruionmel

Solod as a bear spec druid. He died with me at 2.5k health. In my brilliance, I ignored the DoT and didn't heal, so I ended up dying anyway. -.- Popped barkskin twice, frenzied regen once, and a runic health pot once. I probably wouldn't have needed to if I had read the comments here and shifted to kitty form once Harkoa showed up. As the case may be, I tanked him the whole time instead of Harkoa. >>

TLDR: Feral druids, shift to kitty after the dialogue and let Harkoa tank him.

Comment by 9388

Soloed as 79 Blood DK in Blood Presence.
Popped IBF first. Watched for his casts and popped AMS. After the dialogue, popped DRW, MoB, Ghoul and burned it down.

Comment by captain1031

77 blood dk soloed. After your help arrives, you can die all you want to just have to make sure you are their when zol'heb dies. I only died once. give it a try

Comment by Conal

Okay, so I get killed, the troll yells out the cat's name (nowhere in sight), I rez and come back to find the troll in his bubble and still the cat is nowhere to be found. Sat there for 10 minutes before the troll disappeared.

LAME. REALLY LAME.

Comment by jinxoda

Solo'd as a 79 shadow priest, but only after a couple of mulligans. Har'koa comes in at 75% Prophet health (around 87k of 117k). I must have lit him up cause I couldn't shake aggro for a while even with Fade. He chased me all around the temple until I OOM'd (and died).

Next round, I tried just hanging close to Har'koa and healing myself. The prophet killed her (and then me) so it doesn't look like she can hold her own against the prophet.

I finally completed the quest by sticking close to Har'koa the entire fight AND contributing DPS/DOTs. I didn't go all out on DPS since Har'koa's AoE heal didn't seem to keep up with Akali's attacks. I healed myself about 30% of the time. I still ended up dead right before the end, but I didn't release and got credit when Har'koa finally KO'd the Prophet.

Comment by Heeris

Soloed as a 76 Blood Deathknight just now without dieing.

The key to the fight as blood is to burn your Cooldowns (Mark of blood, Vampiric Blood, Rune tap etc.) while keeping your diseases up for higher DS heals.
Furthermore, activate A-MS and IF whenever possible to lower the dmg outcome of him.

Burning trough the first 25% was awfully easy, and found myself at 100% at the end of phase 1 - Just keep your DS's up and you'll be fine :-)

And if all else fails, as above stated, ressurect and re-enter the fight with the cat tanking!

Regards.

Comment by diveydavey

FFS! 77 lock, summoned inferno, let inferno get him to 75% so cat came, i didnt die and cat aggroed off me, i died when akali was nerly ded, ran bak, akali was on 325 hp, used shadowbolt on him, akali died, QUEST NOT COMPLETE? WTF! Then a lvl 80 dk came with me. that helped :P

Comment by 379884

Soloed as a 76 enchan shammy. It was fun but challenging and I ended up dying literally 2 secs after he did.

Piece of advice, save just about everything until he stops yapping. I forgot he does that long talk so I ended up having my wolves, heroism, and a fire elemental out when he started yapping his head off. The wolves basically got wasted and heroism too. I'd suggest just popping Gift of the Naaru and maybe the fire/earth elemental at the start. Mine was up until the end so it will stay up through his talking phase. After that, pop wolves and/or heroism. This guy does that nasty stacking debuff so its important to get him down as quick as possible. You may end up having to spam heal yourself and just let Har'koa, the elemental, and (if you have them up) the wolves beat on him. Shamanistic rage is also a help if you run low on mana (as I did) as well as switching from lightning shield to water. At the end I ended up going oom and died right after him. Still got quest complete though.

Comment by 120713

Soloed as a 76 Ele shaman. Put Earth elemental to tank in the beginning. When it died, the prophet did the stun thing and Har'koa came. Only problem was that when Har'koa came, I couldn't get the aggro off of me, and just had to spam heal. When Har'koa took the aggro, it became easier to kill him, just had to heal every once in a while. Used 1 Runic mana potion in the fight. ended up with 30% hp and Har'koa had something like 50-60%.

Comment by 341769

i love this quest line :), very nice one, if you havent done it , i'd suggest u do

Comment by 390337

I found out that if you survive long enough for Har'koa to arrive then you can die and come back to keep fighting and the prophet's health doesn't regenerate as long as Har'koa is still alive to fight him.

Comment by SuBw00FeR

A lot easier then all of the comments on this page.

76 Blood DK, Just keep your diseases up DS all the time, only use one HS so you leave one blood rune open for Rune Tap if you get in trouble. Popped haste trinket and DRW after the cat came, AMS and IF a lot. Used Rune tap only once or twice. Way easier then people were saying.

Also leads to https://www.cuckhead.com/wotlk/quest=13097 - Unfinished Business

Comment by Blays

His speed seems to have been buffed and is no longer kitable with icelance/fireblast spam (he's moving at around 110-120% speed). Even with blinks, two iceblocks, two water elementals, it's very difficult to get him into phase 2 as he melees for 2-4k per swing whenever he catches you. Try to save your iceblocks for when his dot is stacking too high. Best of luck to you undergeared frost mages.

Comment by 391501

I found this fight rough for a 76 prot pally in defense gear. Ret pallies seem to have to it easier from others' posts. I hope you're a ret pally.

For protadin, go in with Fire Resistance Aura SoL, JoL, and pop DP when mana becomes an issue. He hits weak but around the 10th stack of that fire debuff, you spend quite a bit of time healing. Use HoJ and DP or DS every time it's up.

Once the cat comes, you're still tanking, cat never touched my hate.and I wasn't doing anything to try to hold hate, the fire debuff will wear mostly and the heals become easier. I switched to SoW here and tossed in some aoes and occasional nukes.

Comment by 129446

76 ret pala, very easily soloed.

Blessing of Wisdom, Seal of Wisdom, Judgement of Light.
Judgement, Crusader Strike, Divine Storm, heal yourself. Rince and repeat for the whole fight. Started off with fire resist aura, but didn't seem to help anything, so switched to retri aura as the cat spawned for the extra damage. Fight ended at 90% hp 100% mana. No cooldowns needed (bubble, LoH, pot etc). Debuff never goes above 5 stacks (nerfed maybe?), so don't worry about it, his damage is easily outhealable.

Comment by 297888

Solo'd by a 78 DK in tank gear. just spamming Death strike with IT and PS on.

Comment by 411399

I soloed this with no problems at all as 76 unholy DK. ...so go for it guys! :)

Comment by 423524

This may have already been mentioned but I thought to add this anyways. If you are attempting to solo the quest and do end up getting killed while attempting to kill Akali all is not lost. If you did a sufficient amount of damage before dying Har'Koa can still kill Akali and the quest will still complete, just make sure to not release spirit before Akali dies, sit back and watch Har'Koa complete quest for you.

It should be mentioned also that a sufficient amout of damage will most likely require you to take Akali down 10k HP lower than Har'Koa's total HP at the time you die.

Just did the quest in the way I just mentioned and got it complete, cheers :D. If this doesn't work for you I apologize, I promise it worked for me, good luck.

Comment by 410939

Solo'd it at 77 holy pally had FR aura up waited till the cat showed up and let it do the damage keep myself alive with heals and bubble i did die, but i quickly ran back and he was weak and finished the quest

Comment by 397215

Solo'd as a 76 ret paladin, used my bubble in the first stage and kited him around in the 2nd stage using exorcism and hammer of wrath when he got low. I guess the mage in me was coming out.

Comment by 167237

Soloed as a 75 unholy death knight, got killed after the cat joined the fight and finished killing the prophet after rez with no problems

Comment by 268670

Soloed as a 77 Blood Death Knight, with Frost Presence on (16k Health, 15k Armor) and it was extremely easy. I didn't need Har'koa to break in, she just complicated things. He hit me for 1k melee, 1.7k crit. Icy Touch, Plague Strike, Death Strike, Heart Strike X2, Death Strike again, then mix it up a little every once and awhile (i.e. Icebound Fortitude, Mark of Blood, Vampiric Blood, etc.)

Comment by 19080

EZ mode for a level 80 Elemental Shaman, Just throw Lesser Healing wave on yourself, and he's as good as dead. :O

Comment by 41734

Just soloed as a 75 prot warrior. try to stay at as much health as possible until he goes immune.
After the Har' Koa showed up i popped enraged regeneration and was back at about 100%. Just used shield block/ shield wall and a pot. At about 10% I used last stand and by then the prophet was at about 7%. I died but didnt release and Har' Koa finished him off and completed quest for me :D

Comment by 406348

Very easy as a feral druid, just go bear form and stay alive..

Comment by 410971

Soloed at 77 as enh shammy

Opened up with wolves as usual (big mistake), at about 80% he stuns you for 30 seconds or so, made my wolves useless so use them AFTER his stun, even without wolves possible to solo him keeping water shield on yourself and using healing wave on yourself at 5 stacks of maelstrom, killed him this way w/o bloodlust and wolves with 1 runic healing potion

Comment by 279627

He is immune to Roots.

Comment by organiclockwork

Solo'd at 77 as a rather poorly geared Protection Warrior.

Buffed myself before the fight with Commanding Shout, a Flask of Endless Rage (technically left over from the quest before it), some +60AP food, and a Scroll of Stamina VI.

Went in, summoned the Prophet, Charged him, and immediately popped Shield Wall. Laid into him as hard as I could with Shield Slam, Devastate, and Revenge, as he's immune to stuns, rendering Concussion Blow and Shockwave useless. Popped Enraged Regeneration when my health started to dip. Eventually Har'Koa showed up, but sadly he does not immediately take aggro, so I kept taking the brunt of the Prophet's attacks until I eventually died when the Prophet was around 12%.

The run back to the fight is quick, and Har'Koa was still alive and well, and had aggro, so I just rezzed and finished him off. Voila. Not terribly difficult at all. I honestly am starting to think all the buffs were overkill. At any rate, Protection Warriors with gear from previous quests or better can likely solo this with ease.

Comment by 47873

Solo'd as 78 Warlock. Kept DoTs up and Health Funnel to keep up Felguard as he tanked. At 75% Har'Koa came but couldn't take ago from Felguard. Spammed Health Funnel till Prophet died.

Comment by 228792

Soloed as 76 rogue.

Comment by 395672

DO get the blessing of Zim'Torga. It's a Blessing of Kings clone, which will make this quest, as well as its prerequisites exceedingly easy.

Soloed as a 78 BM hunter.

Embarassingly easy to solo as a 76 Blood DK in quest blues and greens. Use Rune Tap and Death Coil liberally, sac your pet if you're hurting, and it's a joke.

Comment by Aros

This is what is said during the fight with the prophet.

Prophet of Akali yells: What is this? I recognize you from when I killed Akali. You must be this <name> that everyone is dreading.
Prophet of Akali yells: You don't worry me, boy. Just the opposite - I look forward to killing you and your friends. Nothing will stand between me and Zim'Torga now!
Prophet of Akali yells: How sad that only now do you grasp the truth - I wield the power of a god. You are a mere mortal. You cannot hope to defeat me!
Prophet of Akali yells: you've meddled in affairs that were none of your business. You are nothing but foreign invaders. Prepare to die!
The prophet begins to cast a ritual of annihilation upon you all.
Har'koa yells: PROPHET!
Prophet of Akali yells: What? HAR'KOA?
Har'koa yells: YOU KEEP YOUR FILTHY DRAKKARI HANDS OFF THEM!
Prophet of Akali yells: Very well, kitten. I see no need to delay your inevitable demise. I look forward to dealing with you just as soon as I finish off these simpletons!
Har'koa yells: I THINK NOT. YOU WILL DROP YOUR IMMUNITY, CEASE YOUR RITUAL NOW AND RELEASE THEM!
Prophet of Akali yells: NO! I will kill you all!
Har'koa yells: Thank you. Once again you have saved us all. I will see you back at Zim'Torga.

Comment by Incomingheal

NOTE: You will NOT fail the quest if Har'koa happens to die. I was attempting to solo this on my 76 destro lock, and Har'koa came by when the prophet hit 88K health. I had to use a pot and healthstone to avoid getting bashed to death while Harkoa took aggro. About 1 minute after Har'koa took aggro, the dot ended up killing me. Ran back, Har'koa was at 50% and the Prophet was at 45 or so. I raced to finish him off before he killed Harkoa, but ti was too late. She died and left the prophet with about 10K health, which I quickly bursted down...quest complete, no failed criteria. I handed in the quest to a very much alive Har'koa back at camp.

Tips for locks:

Voidwalker can eat about 8 hits before it goes down.
Make sure to soulstone yourself, because you'll probably die at least once.
Soulshatter right after Har'koa appears.

Comment by mwmw

as Enhancement Shaman it cant be easier... pop you spirit wolfes and then they and Har'koa will keep you nearly at max HP all the time! i wasent even below 80% at anytime

Comment by 477108

78 Prot pally here.

Had a lot of difficulty with this quest, getting him down then getting out of mana, burst dps is fine, but that fire debuff was really hurting me. If you bubble, you de-aggro and the Har-Koa gets killed.

In the end what did it was using Blessing of Sancturary, as well as Seal of Vengeance (as well as the Zul'Darak kings/wis buffs). I did die during the fight, but didnt even bubble before he was down to 75%, when I eventually did die, there was more than enough time to come back and help the tiger finish him off. I also had fire aura on, and +def gear 449 Def before buffs. Hope this helps

Comment by c00ps

Combat Rogue Level 75 Solo

-Used the Zul'Drak buffs for some added dps
-Dont use evasion/cloak right away, he doesnt engage you immediately and you'll waste it
-Used Blade Flurry and Killing Spree when he started, then used evasion and dropped him enough for Har'koa to show up
-After the dialogue I used VANISH (the fight wont reset with Har'koa on him) and then bandaged
-Stood back while Har'koa gained some threat and used Cloak to avoid the fireballs
-After about 15 seconds I started attacking him from behind, used Adrenaline Rush and let loose on him (Har'koa holds aggro for quite a while)
-Use a pot here if you really need to, otherwise done!

Comment by kepsen

Just soloed as a recently dinged lvl 80 arcane mage. Got mostly blue gear and 2 heirloom items. Started by poping the clones, then just let them tank until he reached 75% and stunned everything. When Har'koa came, I poped Lifeblood (as I'm a herbalist) and invisibility. With 0 threat, it was easy. Just kept Fire Ward up and dps'd.

Comment by zombi

Soloed as 78 marksman hunter, just kept my pet healed until Har'koa joined, turn off growl, feign death and let the panther do the tanking.

Comment by Erkash

Very easy enh sham solo. (Level 77)

Just dropped shamanistic rage as soon as possible to reduce incoming damage and beat on him til the intermission. By the time you're able to attack again shamanistic rage will be ready again and you'll be good to go. I dropped wolves and fire elem and bloodlusted for some extra fun. Destroyed him very quickly and wolves kept me at full health the whole time.

Comment by Toltran

I took this fella down as a lvl 79 Combat PvE Rogue, with quite decent gear, food buff and the Zul'Drak buffs...
I did die once, but I may have lived through it had I been more careful, as I let myself get melee'd to death right before I hit my second CloS and vanished.

Of course, as said tons of times, easy pickins as Har'Koa basically can't die in this fight unless you're a complete toon :-)

Comment by 521556

I know this is a bug and whatnot but I was at about 20% when the random dungeon finder que popped and I entered it. When I came out Akali was at the same percent he was at when I left him at but I was back at full health and had the buffs that I had received from my group.

Guess the moral of the story is if you are having problems soloing it, jump in a dungeon que :)

Comment by 538722

Soloed as a newly leveled 80 BM hunter. Fairly easy, just have your pet tank, and refresh mend pet periodically, popping wrath when it's up, until Har'koa comes in.

On a side note, I actually had Loque'nahak as a pet, so it looked kinda cool when both Loque and Har'koa were fighting him :D

Comment by 333518

Soloed as 78 Destruction Warlock.
Sent in VW, Curse of the Elements, Corruption... once my the health of my VW went low, I started to nuke to get aggro. Stunned by the prophet for a while and then I just continued nuking... Used Sacrifice, Shadowfury, Death Coil, health stone and a runic health potion just to be sure.

Comment by 278372

soloed at lvl 75 feral bear, got him down to 50% died released and ressed and killed him xD it works

Comment by kalisperis

Easily soloed with an Unholy DK, lvl 77 in frost presence and using Death Strike to gain hp...After 1 minute, with rotations and Death Strike, he dropped dead and I was 90+% hp. His hp frightens you in the beginning, but it's not a people quest for me...

PS. People, make sure you get the "buffs" from Zim'Torga and the others, they help a lot...

Comment by Devachan

Fairly easy solo as a 77 ret paladin. Only buffs were might, ret aura, seal of command and the two buffs from the shrines. Just went through the same motions that I use on a normal mob and healed when my health dropped below 70%. Didn't take long to get the prophet to 75%. When Har'koa came to help, it was a lot easier. I didn't even have to pop shield or lay on hands. This quest was actually a lot easier than the one before it.

Comment by 586527

Easily solo'd by a 77 Surv hunter, you jsut have to make sure your pet has Lick your wounds and your good xD

Comment by lilsprints

Easy solo as a spriest, devouring plague and VE and power word shield keep you up just fine

Comment by Alamandaros

Just solo'd as a 79 Boomchicken in quest gear.

Started out the fight with all the Zul'Drak buffs, Druid buffs, and Regrowth/Rejuv/Lifebloom. Popped Starfall and Barkskin right away. Nuked him down to 75% pretty fast and I managed to pop off a Rejuv right before the stun so I was fully healed during the little cut-scene.

As soon as the cut-scene ended (helps to know what the final line is they say) I threw my HoT's back up and popped Force of Nature and Barkskin. Starfall came off cooldown shortly afterwards which helped finish him.

Comment by Jesteria

Soloed as lvl 77 Boomkin. No pushback by typhoon so thats hard. u should pop up heals and barkskin. I died at %15 but when I run back the fight was still goin on with that cat god and that troll prophet. So you can run when u died to continue fight.

Comment by Allakhazam

Go to (77, 36).

Click you're 'Prophet of Akali Convocation' item.

Kill the prophet. He has some fire damage spells that hit the group. At some point, Har'koa (the big white leapord) will join the fight and help you.

Comment by Allakhazam

Solo at 75 and never went below 55%, Human DK, 2H Unholy/Blood DPS geared Hybrid, 28/0/38

at 75% prophet stuns you for approx 30 seconds and commences dialogue when Har'koa shows up to help you, save your CD's for after this, made the mistake of burning them early.

Solo'd this as a 77 Balance Druid, but it was ugly.

I don't know about anyone elae, but Har'koa didn't hold aggro. I died, was able to get back to the fight and then let Har'koa take a beating while I spammed Starfire. FYI, Har'koa can die without effecting quest progession.

It's marked as a win, but I'm certainly not proud of it.

Comment by Allakhazam

and the reward is a downgrade from a simple HONORED faction prize for cloth?

Oh well... Quest was moderately easy as an 80 holy/disc priest. Popped 1 mana pot near the end. Har'koa doesn't show till you've gotten the Prophet down by about 25%; you get an irresistible stun while they have a little chitchat.

Melee was hitting me for 800-1500 (cloth/4400 AC), various and sundry fire spells. Immune to fear. Had no problems with his Fire Dot, I stayed in the middle of the convocation circle area.

Once Kar'koa shows up, he will dps well for you but doesn't hold aggro worth a darn. A single tick of Renew pulled aggro off him back onto me immediately after Fading.

As mentioned on other sites, the graveyard is very close, so you can run back from the GY in time to get quest credit if Har'koa kills him for you.

Completion opens up Unfinished Business from Har'Koa

Myself, a 78 Human DK Blood spec'd (54/0/15) in some tanking gear and using frost presence (about 19k hp, 16k ac), and a 77 Ret Pally did this with ease. Prophet came in at about 117k hp on my screen and Har'koa came in at about 82k remaining (72% more or less). Once Har'koa showed up it took all the agro on the prophet and short of taunting him I couldn't get him back... doesn't hit too hard probably about 1k per and seemed to be slow and the fire spell looked to be about 500 damage per all of which was easily counteracted by my blood abilities and judgement of light.

Basically if you have good gear and you are having trouble finding a third you can probably still do it :)

GL and happy hunting!

I was able to run back and finish him after I died. You can go back as long as Har'koa is alive

Comment by faiding

78 Frost Mage on WotLK classic w/o heirlooms or dungeon gear (11.5khp, 12.3k mana w/ drakari buffs). Took me 4 attempts.

- Get the mana regen and stat buff from drakari offerings
- Keep Fire Ward up at all times
- Trigger event with around 30 seconds on Ice Barrier
- Burn as hard as you've ever burned in your life to get him to 75%
- He cannot be slowed so you'll need to blink + block to get him on your pet for extra burn
- Try to save your other block for the fire DoT

If you get him to phase without using a pot you'll be fine, especially if you can hold evocation heal. You can invis + eat/drink when Har'koa comes to assist, but the cat can only tank for around 20-30 seconds before dying and he will re-aggro you after a few nukes.

Very hard fight unless you can heal yourself.

My heart goes out to you, <name>. We have been through much together, and you have done all that you can to not only save my life, but those of the other gods the Drakkari have destroyed.

But I fear this time we may not see each other again until the afterlife.
