He is part of the High King Maulgar encounter in Gruul's Lair. He is a mage class and can be countered by a mage with spellsteal.

His shield spell is called Spell Shield (-75% from all magic damage): https://www.wowhead.com/cata/spell=33054

His normal attack is Greater Fireball (8550 to 9450 damage, 3 second cast): https://www.wowhead.com/cata/spell=33051

This means that a mage tanking him will take 2137 to 2363 fire damage every 3 seconds while shielded, and will need at least 9500 health to guarantee he won't be one-shot if a fireball hits him with the spell shield down.

Tanked today with 12k hp and 8k mana and healed by a paladin.
Here is the way i do it if this can help :

1) I go near the right wall at frostbolt max cast distance.
2) I cast Fire Ward on myself then pull Krosh with frostbolt
3)Then i spam spellsteal while running back.
4) I stop running back when i am at spellsteal max cast distance
5) Spam frostbolt to build aggro.
6) When the shield is at 4s i send a macro to the healer saying that the shield is gonna fade (quite useful so he knows he has to be ready to cast a heavy heal)
7) When the shield is down, i cast Fireward on myself, while he is casting his last fireball before refreshing his shield, and then start to immediatly spam Spellsteal.
....
Repeat 5 to 7

Note : mana pool is not really a problem, as you can make some pauses instead of casting frostbolt to regen a bit. You normally should have enough aggro at the time people start to dps him.

Okay, the most important thing here is that his magic resistance shield CAN BE SPELLSTEALED! This means that while the spell reduction shield is on your mage tank instead of Krosh, the mage will ONLY take about 2200 damage more or less per fireball instead of a whopping 10k!!

The add-on "Deadly Bosses" tracks the shield casting, and when the shield is about to go up, this should be your only concern - to STEAL IT AGAIN before that next 10k fireball slams into you!!!

6% spell hit from gear is approximately 76 spell hit, so aim for that if you have Arcane Focus.

yo m8s ..

well .. as far as i was concerned .. i was tanking Krosh .. (got my hands full) ..

and my dear fellow mages .. this task isn't hard as it may seem .. because you'll need to do the following :

1. get your HP (buffed) to ding 11k or more ..

2. key bind "Q" or ";" or w/e suits you to the following macro :

/stopcasting
/cast Spellsteal
/stopcasting

3. you must have a 3rd eye .. watch Krosh .. keep an eye on the Buff duration .. and the 3rd eye on fire ward (in case you didn't key bind it)

these are your responsibilities as a mage .. dying is the fault of your assigned healer ..

as known to many .. the pull starts with the mage .. with the talents .. you can cast your fireball from a distance of 41 yrds .. do so at the right corner (right down the entrance) ..

the moment you start casting .. MT and all the others go in ..

be aware that Krosh will step forward and *might* strike you with a melee hit ..

once the shield is up .. spam your macro .. get it .. and start building aggro .. the healer must keep you at 90% at least at all times except for the last part ..

once the shield is at 2 secs .. you'll be getting the last greater fireball ..

once it fades .. Krosh will start casting a fireball .. beware this fireball .. as this is were you need to keep your fingers crossed !

at that point specifically .. the healer MUST keep you at 100% HP before Krosh unleashes his fireball that WILL hit you for 10.5k !!!!

after getting the last fireball (when your shield is up) .. stop casting .. and stand rdy ..

one it fades .. krosh's fireball will have 2 secs to be launched ..

get your Fire Ward up (frost sheild if you're Frost specced) .. and if you're on vent .. ask your preist or w/e for a dmg absorbing bubble ..

you'll absorb 3k of dmg .. phew ..

now .. you need to start the whole procedure again !

keep an eye on your mana pool ..

Note : fire resistance doesn't reduce the dmg taken from the fireballs .. but note this .. you ONLY can FULLY resist a fireball !!!! ;D

once the raid's ranged DPS units start foOokin' the b@stard .. shift on to high king maulgar .. and gz .. gg ^^

h.f all ..

Note: Hunters should not use arcane shot against Krosh, as it can remove his fireshield, making it impossible for your mage to spellsteal it. This can lead to a wipe.

Remember to cast this buff at least 15 seconds before you expect the fireball

This sentence of the quoted article makes no sense, in fact, it's no longer in the quoted article itself. Most likely it was supposed to say "1.5 seconds".

Commentaire de elrenifico

So, having full Fire resistance Epic gear is actually useless ? you only need massvive stam ? (till 10.5k unbuffed) ? Downed him 4 times, and used all 4 badges items, stam+fire res....and guild stats reported i RESISTED 45% of his damage.....any idea if fire res does help, or was i just damn lucky ?

lol i love this guy. I was in a REALLY good raid group so they killed Olm right when then 2nd puppy (my enslave turn) came out. Then I have the puppy next to me and I freaking out of what to do. Then i sent him just to dps krosh and boom blast wave or something happened and bah bye puppy. This was my first time in there and in a 25 man so yea i was nervous to screw up.

Commentaire de ir0npanda

I have tanked him on my orc warrior. I have 24K raid buffed HP with unstable bandit flask. With defensive stance, blastwave caps out at 6K damage and fireball at 8500 tops. The average hit of blastwave + fireball was about 13K, or roughly 1/2 my HP. I did not even spec into improved defensive stance.

I had 2 or 3 healers spam healing to keep me alive but it was worth it and fun. Try it :)

Commentaire de Kaleb

after the 3.0.2 patch tuesday this fight has become a joke, i tanked krosh on a friend's mage that didn't even have 9k life and was never in danger of dieing.

Commentaire de 376631

You better loot https://www.wowhead.com/cata/npc=18832 fast before he fades away after death.

Commentaire de Crobeus

As of patch 4.0.1, Spell Steal is now learned at level 76 which makes this boss untankable by level 70 mages.
