- For his regular appearance in Zul'Farrak, see Gahz'rilla.
Kai'ju Gahz'rilla is a level 80 Elemental Unrest version of the boss from Zul'Farrak.
Abilities
She has four main abilities:
- Ice Spikes 45 yd range — Ice spikes pierce the floor and then rise up, dealing 3813 to 4187 Frost damage and knocking up enemy targets within 3 yards.
- Icicle Breath — Inflicts Frost damage to enemies in front of the caster, reducing their movement speed for 10 sec. 1.5 sec cast
- Freeze Solid 30 yd range — Stuns an enemy and inflicts Frost damage every 3 sec. for 10 sec. 2.5 sec cast
- Gahz'rilla Glacier — You become encased in a block of ice, protecting you from all physical attacks and spells for 5 sec, and recover most of your hit points, but during that time you cannot attack, move or cast spells. 3 sec cast (5 min cooldown)
Strategy
There are three groups of trash before this boss, each containing three mobs. One contains a named mob. These should pose no problems to you as a group.
She is the most technical of the four mini-bosses in the Cataclysm pre-event.
- Whenever she starts to cast Freeze Solid the tank should move to the right or left to avoid being frozen. In case it still happens, this effect can be dispelled.
- At about 400k (30%) she casts Gahz'rilla Glacier on herself. This ability can and should be interrupted! Otherwise she heals herself up to about 90%.
