For character biography, see Lady Naz'jar.

Lady Naz'jar is the first boss of the Throne of the Tides. She can be found in the depths of Throne of the Tides, and needs to be killed to unlock other bosses.

Lady Naz'jar played a pivotal role in the retaking of Vashj'ir from the brutal Kvaldir, earning her Queen Azshara's favor. Recently Naz'jar spearheaded an assault against Neptulon and succeeded in cornering the powerful elemental lord within his throne room.^[1]

Before fighting the mistress herself, the group must overcome several of her naga servants and murlocs.

Abilities

Shock Blast - An interruptable spell which takes 3 seconds to cast. The spell deals 33,250 to 36,750 damage to the target, which is about half of the hit points to the tank at early levels, a tank can therefor survive without the spell being interrupted, but it is adviseable to do so.
Shock Blast (Heroic) - An interruptable spell which takes 2 seconds to cast. The spell deals 141,375 to 158,625 damage to the target, which is devastating against the tank, which is why it is vital that the group are able to interrupt each cast.
Geyser - Summons a geyser on the ground under a random player that erupts after 2 seconds, launching the target into the air. The spell deals 23,750 to 26,250 damage to any characters standing over it when it erupts.
Fungal Spores - Fungal Spores will be thrown at a random players feet, which deals 10,000 every 3 seconds for 15 seconds, the debuff is removable, but is not prioritized, moving away from the Fungal Spores is a better way of avoiding it.
Waterspout - A 1.5 second cast that buffs Lady Naz´jar, which causes all spells cast on her reflect, and all ranged attacks on her miss.
- Nearby enemies will also be knocked back, making her immune for 1 minute. During this minute, 3 adds will spawn: 2 Naz'jar Tempest Witch (spell casters) and a Naz'jar Honor Guard (melee dps).
- Lady Naz´jar will engage in the battle again after one minute, whether these adds are killed or not.
- Lady Naz´jar casts this spell twice during the encounter, at 66% hp and at 33% hp.
- The Tempest Witch casts two different spells, a 2 second cast Chain Lightning and a 1 second cast Lightning Surge. The Lightning Surge deals 14138 to 15862 Nature damage, while the chain lightning deals 9,250 to 10,750 Nature damage in normal mode and 37000 to 43000 Nature damage in Heroic mode. He does not cast any noticeable spell, but has a nasty enrage ability.
- When all of the adds are killed, you can proceed to kill Lady Naz'jar.
- During this phase in Heroic mode, mini water tornados will spawn on the boss, about 5 at a time, and then proceed to move outwards towards the edge of the room. These must be avoided, as if they contact a player, that player becomes ‘stunned’ and is carried to the edge of the room for 5 seconds, while taking a steady stream of 5000 Frost damage every half second.

Strategy

When you start the encounter, the gates you enter from will lock. Periodically she will open a Geyser. Players have to dodge these or it'll deal about 25k damage to all players standing on it, as well as lunging them into the air.
When she casts Waterspout at 66% and 33%, you'll be met with two Naz'jar Tempest Witches and one Naz'jar Honor Guard. The damage the Naz'jar Tempest Witches do is moderate but can prove to be a problem when dealing damage to multiple enemies, which is why one of these Tempest Witches should be crowd controlled, and the other interrupted and nuked down fast. The Naz'jar Honor Guard is definitely prioritized last of the three mobs, but in Heroic mode, The Honor Guard can be particularly bothersome, and do a lot of damage. If the group does not feel prepared to deal with the damage, consider crowd controlling the Honor Guard instead.
Ideally, a group will have 2 or more crowd controllers. [Polymorph] (mage), [Hex] (shaman), and [Repentance] (retribution paladin) are all capable of repeatable long-term crowd control on humanoids. Also, in an emergency, a rogue can use [Vanish] and [Sap] for a one-time CC. If a group has two crowd controllers, they should coordinate to stop the casters and then focus down the honor guard. Establishing before the fight which side each crowd controller will be on helps greatly (the casters spawn to the left and right sides of the room, at the edge of the center ring). Overall, communication is key.

-==== Azeroth Forces ====
-The uneasy truce between the Alliance and the Horde in the aftermath of the Third War was soon broken when several battlegrounds between various forces of the factions have erupted:
-* [[League of Arathor]] - The main force of the nation of [[Stromgarde]]. In order to supply their war to reclaim the [[Arathi Highlands]] (and help supply themselves and The Alliance with valuable resources) the League has invaded the [[Arathi Basin]] along with Forsaken forces, with whom they fight vigorously over the rich land.

-* [[Stormpike Guard]] - A dwarven expedition to the [[Alterac Valley|Valley of Alterac]] in order to search for relics and treasures from the past, have led to open war with the orcs of the [[Frostwolf clan]] that resides in the southern parts of the same valley.

-== Alliance of Lordaeron ==
-[[File:Lorderan Tabard.jpg|thumb|right|The Seal of Lordaeron is used prominently in Alliance culture.]]
-{{main|Alliance of Lordaeron}}
-The modern Alliance is the successor to the Alliance of Lordaeron, which was created at the behest of King {{npc||Terenas Menethil II}} of [[Lordaeron]] and Lord {{npc||Anduin Lothar}} of the kingdom of Stormwind following the [[First War]], five years after the reckoning. The human, dwarf, gnome, and high elf races allied together to fight off the [[orc]]ish [[History of the Horde|Horde]].
-==Aftermath of the Second Invasion==
-Events of the [[Third War|Second Invasion]] led to an alliance with both the night elves and the Horde. The former became permanent, while the latter did not.
-Following the Second Invasion, many of the surviving high elves rebranded themselves as [[blood elf|blood elves]] and rejoined the Alliance shortly after the invasion, only to leave it again following an attempted purge by Grand Marshal {{npc||Garithos}}. The true high elves remain loyal to the new Alliance, most notably the ones dwelling in [[Theramore]] under Lady {{npc||Jaina Proudmoore}} and {{NPC||Captain Darill}} and in the [[Hinterlands]] at [[Quel'Danil Lodge]], apparently led by {{NPC||Jalinde Summerdrake}}. More recently, high elves have grouped together in Northrend as the [[Silver Covenant]].
-A few years later, the draenei joined the Alliance. Stranded a world away from home, they are trying to establish a new base on Azeroth from the wreckage of the [[Exodar]] as well as gain the trust and cooperation of the Alliance.
-During the events of the [[World of Warcraft: Cataclysm|Cataclysm]], another race joined the ranks of the Alliance; the [[worgen]] of [[Gilneas]].
-==Organization==
-[[File:Half-orc.jpg|thumb|Half-orc]]
-The Alliance is not a uniform governmental body, but is a coalition of mutual military and economic aid. [[Stormwind]] is described as the most powerful force in the now multiracial Alliance and has thus been charged with maintaining the Alliance and its treaties.<ref>[[The Shattering: Prelude to Cataclysm]]</ref> It has also been shown to be the central point of Alliance politics. During the [[Elemental_Unrest_meetings#At_Stormwind_Keep|Alliance Elemental Invasion Meeting]], Stormwind was where the main super powers of the Alliance conferred to discuss world issues and mutual defense.
-[[King Varian Wrynn]] coordinates the workings of the Alliance's armies in order to safeguard the Alliance's interests and defense. To help him with this task, Varian regularly confers with [[Grand Admiral Jes-Tereth]] (commander of the Alliance's fleets), Alliance [[battlemasters]], and diplomats. But the most important asset to King Varian's rule is the support of [[Ironforge]], which holds an equal amount of political clout as Stormwind in Alliance politics.<ref>[[Hillsbrad Town Registry]]</ref>
-Even now, as always, humans are the glue that hold the Alliance together, being the most numerous and diplomatic of the member races. The armies of Stormwind are stationed through out the Eastern Kingdoms, trying to retake regions such as Duskwood, Westfall, and The Redridge mountains. The armies of Ironforge are mainly stationed in Khaz Modan along with their Gnome allies, and the Night Elven armies are mainly defending northern Kalimdor from Horde's deforestation of the Ashenvale. The remaining Draenei forces are still trying to secure their new home on Azuremyst Isle, and are also stationed in Outland. The recently brought in Gilnean armies are defending themselves from the endless onslaught of the Forsaken.
