*It is a good idea to start the encounter by sending in a hunter pet and letting it die. Once the pet has died, the hunter should [[Feign Death]]. This resets Roman'khan with no mana. Additionally, a warlock can suicide an eye of kilrog to do a mana reset.
 
 
*Use 2 tanks on Roman'khan, this will prevent him from running through the raid and killing DPS to restore his own health in case the first tank dies. Give the tank a few seconds to gain aggro, then just nuke Roman'khan. Have Warlocks drain mana to prevent him from reaching full mana. If necessary, bandage yourself between the System Shocks. All of Roman'khan's special abilities deal nature damage, so Nature Protection potions and Nature Resistance are useful for this fight.

Emissary Roman'khan

Emissary

A Horde raid faces Roman'khan

A Silithus outdoor raid boss, who is spawned by a quest. He doesn't drop anything but the item required for the quest.

General Information

Background

The Anubisath Roman'khan is an Emissary of the Qiraji. He delivers their will to the overlords of Hive'Ashi, Hive'Zora, and Hive'Regal.

Overview

Emissary Roman'khan is spawned by the quest The Calling that requires you to kill him and loot the Spell nature stoneskintotem [Crystal Unlocking Mechanism]. This encounter was designed for 20 people, but the quest will allow you to do it with up to 40.

Abilities

  • Wilt - An AOE ability that locks on to several mana-using raid members (around 10) then hits them repeatedly, dealing 500-ish Nature damage (resistable) and draining mana constantly (not resistable). Every point of mana drained will restore a large amount of mana to the Emissary. It is recommended to keep HoTs on the people targeted by Wilt.
  • System Shock - Single target damage spell that will blast a random person for 1500-4000 damage, and heals Roman'khan for a small amount. As Roman'khan gains mana, he uses this ability more often and it does more damage.
  • Explode - When Roman'khan's mana bar is full he will use this ability for massive AOE damage. For this reason, it is recommended to keep mana draining Roman'khan, unless you have a large raid that can dps him down.
  • Drain Life - Whenever a player dies due to Roman'khan's abilities, he will regenerate 2% health.

Strategy

  • Use 2 tanks on Roman'khan, this will prevent him from running through the raid and killing DPS to restore his own health in case the first tank dies. Give the tank a few seconds to gain aggro, then just nuke Roman'khan. Have Warlocks drain mana to prevent him from reaching full mana. If necessary, bandage yourself between the System Shocks. All of Roman'khan's special abilities deal nature damage, so Nature Protection potions and Nature Resistance are useful for this fight.
