The Curator - Karazhan Strategies

Class Requirements:

Abilities

• Summon Astral Flare - The Curator will spawn one Astral Flare every 10 seconds. This ability costs 10% of the Curator's mana. The flares have approximately 12,000 Hit Points and attack using Arcing Sear and dealing arcane damage to up to 3 players in melee range every second. Everyone needs to be spread out to avoid this damage. The flares deal only Arcane damage and obey threat rules, but are immune to taunt.
• Hateful Bolt - The Curator occasionally targets the second person on his aggro list with an arcane bolt that hits for approximately 4500 to 6000 Arcane damage. This ability is both fully and partially resistable.
• Evocation - Upon exhausting its mana pool by summoning one last astral flare, the Curator will channel evocation for 20 seconds. During this evocation all damage taken is increased by 200%. The Curator will not attack or summon flares during this spell. The list of "prime" targets for Hateful Bolts is reset at this time.
• Enrage - At 15%, it will enrage. This largely increases melee damage output and rate at which Hateful Bolts are cast. It will not summon Astral Flares or use evocation during this time.
• Berserk - If the Curator is not killed within 12 minutes, it will go berserk and end your raid quickly.

Positioning

The MainTank and the Offtank will both run in and Tank the Curator in the center of the hallway. All range dps and healers will form a half circle at max distance from the curator. Melee dps will be between the curator and the Ranged dps/Healers half circle.

Strategy

The Curator will spawn an adds every 10 seconds, which will cost him 10% of his mana. All DPS should immediatly pick up the add and kill it. Repeat this 9 more times. Once he summons 10 adds he will evocate for 20 seconds, during this time he takes 200% damage. During evocate everyone should burn their cooldowns on him, all except one dps who is assigned to kill the last astral flare the curator summoned.

Repeat this process until The Curator is at 15%. At this point he will enrage increasing his damage but he will no longer summon flares, at this point just burn him.
