Enjoy. I loved this fight. Just wish our group did more attempts.

Fairly simple boss encounter. Has 26 million hp on 10 normal, and 90 million on 25 man. He only has a few abilities to watch out for. First off, before you start the fight, talk to Finkle in the back. The bot he activates is required in order to beat the fight. What it does is that it brings up an aura that would take any attack that would otherwise kill you bring you to 1 hp instead if you have more than 10k hp.

He does a spit that does roughly 300k damage (10 man) that's split amongst people hit by it and it reduces the change to hit by 75% for 5 seconds. Not really important until he begins to Feud.

He also has an ability called massacre. This deals 999,999 to everyone in the raid. However, since the bot is up when he casts this ability, it will bring you to 1 hp instead. While healers may want to heal the raid above 10k hp back to full, it is pointless to do so unless he is doing Feud.

He randomly gains Double attack, which will instantly kill your tanks if they are not topped off constantly. He doesn't attack incredibly fast, so this shouldn't be a huge issue. He will also apply a stacking debuff that increases damage taken by 10%, so make sure to taunt off at 2-3 stacks each.

Perhaps his most dangerous ability is Feud. During this time, he will shut down the bot and begin to Feud with himself, stopping all melee damage. However, he will continue to spit, so the raid needs to stack up on tanks to ensure that nobody dies to it. This part of the fight is quite healing intensive, and has a chance to occur after every Massacre, so use all of your defensive cds you have to survive.

At 20%, he stops using spit, massacre, and shuts down the bot. Instead, he puts a debuff that reduces all incoming healing by 99%. Pop bloodlust/ time warp/ heroism and any other cds you may have and nuke him down quickly. Healing is pointless in this phase, so everyone give it everything you got and he will fall over quickly.

Will update this as more bugs and hotfixes are applied as with the other fights. Names of abilities will be put in as well.
