Spawns in the middle of Endless Sands, and starts mounted in Phalangax, the Final Grasp. Once that is defeated, he dismounts.

He spawns multiple Reinforced Metacarpus, which melee, periodically jump at random targets and do a stun for 1.5 seconds if they land near you (no clear telegraph), and have a buff that increases their next melee attack. He also spawns a few Alarming Manicule, which seem to favour ranged and cast something that pulls you towards them.

There's likely supposed to be a clear mechanic to this fight, but ultimately for a first time, it was some stun lock and mass adds leading to deaths and kiting/zerging.

Dropped Deadeye's Spirit Piercer on my third kill.

The All 3 rares from Dune Dominance spawn on the Mid of Endless Sands.
Will appear a mark on the map when these rares are up.
After kill the 3 rares you'll receive Arsenal: Weapons of Glorious Domination.

Iska, Outrider of Ruin spawn mounted in Rhuv, Gorger of Ruin. Can drop Iska's Mawrat Leash, Staff of Broken Coils, Rotculler's Encroaching Shears.
Reanimatrox Marzan spawn mounted in Phalangax, the Final Grasp.
High Reaver Damaris spawn mounted in Edra, the Will Grazer. Can drop High Reaver's Sickle.

The loot is from the final rare.

Anyone have any idea what the spawn timers are on these guys?

Comment by Tyrsenus

Typing mar into group finder will show you groups for both Reanimatrox Marzan & High Reaver Damaris, which spawn in the same location.

Can u only get weapon from him once a day or can u farm him for it?

Comment by Wyler

I strongly suspect that the 3 dune rares (Iska Outrider of Ruin/Rhuv Gorger of Ruin, Reanimatrox Marzan/Phalangax the Final Grasp, and High Reaver Damaris/Edra the Will Grazer) spawn after a certain number of other ZM rares have been killed. I have seen them spawn immediately upon killing another rare, and their spawn time is much faster during periods of high activity/rare killing, and much slower during periods of low activity.

I have spent countless hours in ZM, killed Iska and Damaris 10+ times. I am yet to Even see Marzan spawn.....

I couldn't find a comprehensive list of all the weapon appearances dropped by these three dune elites, as well as which classes could loot them, so I made the list myself. Keep in mind that you do not need to be in the proper loot spec to to obtain the item, just be on that class. For example, my BM hunter can loot the polearms despite not being able to use the weapon in that spec. Some items can be dropped by all three, as noted below, while others require a specific elite to be up.

Reanimatrox Marzan
(2H strength mace / Paladin, Warrior, DK)
(Shield / Paladin, Warrior, Shaman)
(2H agility polearm / Druid, Hunter, Monk)
(1H agility mace / Rogue, Shaman, Monk)

High Reaver Damaris
(1H strength mace / Paladin, Warrior, DK)
(2H agility polearm / Druid, Hunter, Monk)
(2H strength mace / Paladin, Warrior, DK)
(Shield / Paladin, Warrior, Shaman)

Iska, Outrider of Ruin
(2H strength mace / Paladin, Warrior, DK)
(Shield / Paladin, Warrior, Shaman)
(2H agility polearm / Druid, Hunter, Monk)
(1H agility mace / Rogue, Shaman, Monk)

Drops from all three
(2H intellect staff / Mage, Druid, Priest, Shaman, Warlock, Monk
(Agility fist weapon / Rogue, Shaman, Monk, DH)
(Crossbow / Hunter)
(Warglaive / Demon Hunter)
(Ability dagger / Rogue)

This thing is a myth. I have camped it for 11h straight. I got 4 Iska Spawns in total. Nothing else. Is this thing bugged?

As someone who recently (last 7 days) camped the living hell out of these rares in Zereth Mortis (ZM) avoiding Dragonflight and the crowded-lagfest here are my findings:

1) I came for the mount that drops from Rhuv, Gorger of Ruin (Iska's Mawrat Leash) but stayed for the transmogs
2) They respawn after someone kills a rare. Do not just wait AFK in the middle of the sand area, it won't speed up the process. Lvl 70s in blue/green gear can solo all the elites except Protector of the First Ones (needs 2 to open the gate - btw send suggestion to blizzard to fix this to be soloable as ZM will be less and less crowded as time goes on) and Zatojin (Lvl 70 cannot get 10 stacks of poison from the drones, so need lvl 60-65ish to do it). Respawn timer is about 1-2hour provided someone is constantly killing the rares. Longest i've seen was 12hrs on a dead shard. Shortest 50mins.
3) While cruising around the area killing rares I found new friends that are also camping the rares, each one for their own reasons. The rares drop genesis motes, cyphers, rep, transmogs, and latices for mounts/pets/ use addon Silverdragon-TomCatTours and Handynotes - Shadowlands to see what you want/need and which rares are up. cool weaps like Xy'rath's Signature Saber?bonus=6935 will seem non-rare by the time you're done
4) Phasing sucks. 2 examples that mega triggered me: 1) Just killed Otaris as a 61 DK, slow and grindy kill (6+ mins) Saw the ''swirling sands'' zone announcement -> started heading there (from Otaris area), when I got there, nothing...No corpse, no players(I got phased!) 2) Camped 3 hours, it was about to spawn surely, then I got phased. I altf4 from rage.
How to deal with phasing? Find friends across different shards eg for EU realms Draenor-Silvermoon (2 shards), ArgentDawn-Hyjal (another 2shards) etc.
Use addon https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/raretracker-rt ( I used core/ZM module for less lag), this addon shows the shard number. eg 15. 14. 14503 etc. This is the ''CRZ'' instance you are in. Sometimes 2 chars on same realm can be on 2 different shards...so use this to your advantage to track kills. Invite each other, make custom groups, use legacy raids for cross-faction if you're feeling generous. cooperate. With 3 players on 3 shards you get 3 kills in 1-3 hours. *Insert stonks meme*
5) Park as many alts as possible in ZM to camp this, use the classes you want transmogs on. Eg. if you want Marzan's Dancing Twin-Scythe park a Hunter/Monk /Druid there. If you want Reanimator's Beguiling Baton park a dk/pala/warrior there etc
Level 60s who already have access to Korthia can use the direct skip to ZM without any questing as long as your main char completed the story to access it (speak to the Voice of the Abiter in middle of the Enclave and complete this quest Call of the Primus then click ''skip to ZM pocopoc" dialogue)
If your lvl 60 does not have access to ZM but you have done the threads of fate, and have the covenant spells, you can after reaching 60, head to ZM ,speak to the voice, then head to your covenant, do the introduction, get your soulbind, then you get send back to Oribos, use the skip to the Korthia from Bolvar and then you can also skip to ZM .
I do not have any info on new chars who never did SL content. sorry
6)Loot is not spec dependent, you can put enchancement on loot spec as shaman and get the caster staff. i or be protection spec paladin and get 2h mace.t's random class-based loot.
7) Open the treasures near the sands (Mawsworn Supply Chest) can drop Spectral Mawrat's Tail
8) Use Enhancement Console for char buffs to make life easier such as Focialic Crystallic Spheroid Flexialic Crystallic Spheroid etc
9) Dumping some raw spawn data from paper notes I haven't tossed out
