Принц Валанар

Level	83 (Boss)
Type:	Undead
Health:	30.5M (25-man Heroic)
22.6M (25-man)
7.6M (10-man Heroic)
5.6M (10-man)

After 18 seconds in combat, Принц Валанар will summon a Кинетическая бомба in the air at a random position in the arena and another Кинетическая бомба every 30 seconds for the rest of the fight. These bombs will float and slowly drift toward the ground, creating a massive explosion if they are allowed to hit the ground, dealing 18k physical damage (20k in heroic difficulty) to all players within 50 yards as well as a knockback. Each Кинетическая бомба will despawn after 1 minute if it hasn't exploded, so you should be juggling up to 3 bombs at the same time in heroic difficulty.
To prevent the Кинетическая бомбаs from exploding, a raid member or pet simply needs to damage the bombs when they are close to the ground to push them back up. The easiest way to deal with this mechanic is to set one Охотник or Чернокнижник pet to attack each bomb and they will stand under it, hitting it as soon as it comes within range, and maintaining it in the air for the whole fight without you having to worry about them.

Принц Валанар's second ability is Сотрясающий вихрь. Roughly every 20 seconds, Valanar will summon a small, white Сотрясающий вихрь next to a random player, which will pulsate every second for the next 25 seconds, dealing 10k physical damage (12k in heroic difficulty) to all players within 12 yards and push them back 100 yards away. Ranged DPS will have to reposition to avoid the Сотрясающий вихрь, while if a Сотрясающий вихрь spawns in melee range then Принц Валанар's tank will have to drag the boss away from the explosion.

Заклятье крови
When Принц Валанар is empowered by Заклятье крови — at the start of the fight and every 135 seconds — his Сотрясающий вихрь ability becomes an Могучий вихрь. Instead of creating one Сотрясающий вихрь at a random location, every 20 seconds Принц Валанар will spawn vortices at the location of each player, dealing 5k physical damage to all players within 12 yards once. To avoid taking damage from multiple Могучий вихрь, every player will have to spread out at least 12 yards away from each other. Могучий вихрь has a long 4.5-second cast time which should give all players enough time to adjust positions and make sure they won't blast each other. Melees, especially, will have to run away from the boss and scatter at the back of the room before returning to the boss after the blast.

Принц Келесет

Принц Келесет

Принц Келесет is the caster of the Blood Prince Council and he will only cast Теневое копье for the whole encounter, dealing around 18.5k shadow damage (19.5k in heroic difficulty) every 1.5 seconds. As such, he can be tanked by a ranged DPS, typically Чернокнижник for their superior HP pool. Alternatively, one tank can tank both Принц Валанар and Принц Талдарам while the second tank takes care of Принц Келесет, which may make threat and survival easier thanks to defensive cooldowns.

Every 10 seconds, a Темное ядро will spawn in the arena. These dark balls of energy will attach to the last player who attacked them (excluding AoEs) and channel a beam on them, granting the Теневой резонанс debuff. Теневой резонанс deals 1000 shadow damage every 3 seconds in exchange for granting the targeted player a 35% reduction to shadow damage.
Принц Келесет's tank will want to take aggro of each Темное ядро as they spawn throughout the fight to accumulate multiple Теневой резонанс reductions to shadow damage (multiplicative) before Принц Келесет becomes empowered by the Заклятье крови and his Теневое копьеs turn into deadly Копье зловещих теней.
The Темное ядро will lose HP gradually, similar to Algalon's Вспыхивающая звезда, so the tank will have to gather new ones to maintain multiple Теневой резонанс debuffs.

Заклятье крови
When Принц Келесет is empowered by Заклятье крови — 45 seconds into the fight — his Теневое копье ability turns into an Копье зловещих теней, dealing 400% more damage or up to 100k shadow damage per cast. Thankfully, the Теневой резонанс debuffs granted by several Темное ядро will reduce the damage taken down to more manageable 15-20k casts after resistances during these 45 seconds.

Принц Талдарам

Принц Талдарам

Принц Талдарам deals melee damage similar to Принц Валанар and will require a proper physical tank, although the same tank can handle both Valanar and Taldaram at the same time if necessary without taking insurmountable damage.

Every 25 seconds, Принц Талдарам will cast Ослепительные искры in the direction of a random raid member, applying the Ослепительные искры debuff to all players caught in the cone attack which is yet another reason for all ranged DPS and healers to remain spread out during this encounter. Ослепительные искры deals ~4k fire damage (4.5k in heroic difficulty) instantly on application and leaves an underlying debuff dealing an additional 16k fire damage (18k in heroic difficulty) over 8 seconds and reducing movement speed by 40%. This magic debuff can be Очищениеed right away to mitigate the damage. Массовое рассеивание is especially efficient if multiple people are caught in the cone and inflicted with the debuff.

After 30 seconds in combat, and roughly every 20 seconds afterward, Принц Талдарам will use Колдовское пламя to send a Шар пламени chasing after a random raid member outside of melee range. Once it reaches its target, the Шар пламени will explode, dealing 10k fire damage (12k in heroic difficulty) to the player and everyone standing within 15 yards. Another reason to spread out.

Заклятье крови
When Принц Талдарам is empowered by Заклятье крови after 90 seconds, his Колдовское пламя ability becomes Жаркое колдовское пламя. Instead of a regular Шар пламени, this time Taldaram sends out a Шар пламени преисподней after a player, which will deal 65k fire damage on impact to all players within 15 yards. To mitigate the damage from this Шар пламени преисподней before it explodes, raid members can discharge the Шар пламени преисподней of its energy by standing within 10 yards of it for as long as possible, taking 1.5k fire damage every 0.3 seconds while in range from the Опаляющая вспышка effect. Each Опаляющая вспышка tick on the raid reduces the final explosion by 1.5k fire damage, down to a minimum of 12k fire damage.
The melee group should position on the trajectory of the Шар пламени преисподней to soak up as much damage as possible before it reaches its target and additional ranged DPS can also assist in the process while the chased player kites for as long as possible.

Темница ТьмыТемница ТьмыМогучий вихрьШар пламени преисподнейТемное ядро

Recommended Raid Composition
Tanks: 2-3 Tanks — One tank can deal with Принц Валанар and Принц Талдарам while the second tank deals with Принц Келесет and the Темное ядро. Alternatively, you can use a third, ranged DPS tank for Принц Келесет such as a Чернокнижник.
Healers: 4-5 — The raid damage in this encounter is high and multiple tanks need to be healed throughout the fight.
DPS: 17-19
