This is the boss from the upcoming new wing of Vault of Archavon, an upgraded ''Archavon the Stone Watcher''.

Comentario de Fugazi

He starts with 4 random adds which need to be offtanked - if you kill any of the adds he will simply respawn it.

Every now and then he will buff one of the adds healing it to full and giving stacking buff. If this buff reach 10 stacks add will die and do 25k+ aoe damage to raid - pretty much causing a wipe. Therefore every time add will get buffed it needs to be dps'ed down within 10 (or so) seconds. After that dps go back to boss and wait for next add to be buffed etc.

If every DPS in your raid is not able to pump out at least 3000 (I would say 4000) DPS then don't even try it. That is quite a big step up in difficulty compared to previous tier where few good people could drag many baddies doing <1000 dps - it won't work here.

Loot is pretty much what you would expect: 2x "Ulduar 25" badges, 4x epic items - Tier 8.25 and/or Season 6 gear.

Emalon the Storm Watcher:

Emalon the Storm Watcher is a simple fight, with a moderately tight DPS requirement. ~~He has no known enrage timer.~~ Reports are indicating that this boss has either a 6 or 10 minute enrage timer.

He has 3 major abilities:

Chain Lightning does the obvious.
Lightning Nova has a 5 second cast time, and functions similarly to Loken's Lightning Nova. Damage recieved is reduced by distance from the boss.
Overcharge is cast on a Tempest Minion, granting a buff that heals the target to full and causes the Tempest Minion to explode after 24 seconds. The buff that stacks on the Tempest minions will increase damage output by 20% every 2 seconds, maxing out at 240% before it explodes.

Emalon also has 4 adds, called Tempest Minions:

Each add that is killed will respawn about 3-5 seconds after it is killed.
One tank should be able to handle all 4 adds.
Watch Emalon for Lightning Nova casts, and run away once he starts casting the spell.
Upon receiving the Overcharge buff, the add is healed to full.
If a Tempest Minion is not killed before it explodes, it will cast Overcharged Blast, instantly wiping the raid. (With the fully stacked buff, that's ~25k damage to EVERYONE in your raid.)

Strategy:

Have your off tank run in and aggro all the adds, and drag them to a corner while your main tank taunts Emalon off the off tank.
Attack the boss until Emalon casts overcharge on a Tempest Minion.
Attack the overcharged Tempest Minion. This is critical - if the add is not dead within 24 seconds of the overcharge cast, you will be dead instead.
Have the offtank pick up the newly spawned replacement Tempest Minion.
Rinse and Repeat.

TL;DR:

If you have DPS below 2k sustained DPS, do not attempt this boss. You don't have the sustained output that you will need to kill the Tempest Minions in time. (2k DPS is assuming a 98% ToT and a standard group composition.)
Attack Boss - Kill overcharged minion - Repeat. An average group should be able to down the boss before the 5th overcharge.

Zong!

My macro to explain tactics to a pug:
/raid :: Tank1 on boss - Tank2 on adds.
/raid :: Tank boss in the far left corner
/raid :: Tank adds in far right corner.
/raid :: Run from "Lightning Nova" or you're dead.
/raid :: He 'enrages' an add. All dps kill that single add.
/raid :: Spread out.

Comentario de Sgtown

Adds have about 720k HP. The add gets healed to full when he enrages it. That means you can't "cheat" and weaken them beforehand.

It explodes at 10 stacks now, which is about 20-25 seconds of DPS. Assuming 5 healers and 2 tanks that's 28,000-35,000 raid DPS required.

With 18 DPSers you need EVERYONE in the raid to do an average of 1,556-1,944 DPS. That includes time spent switching and melee moving from boss to add.

If you assume pugs and people not in vent are going to take several seconds to switch and get going on DPS, giving them only 15 seconds of "average raid DPS" to get the mob down, you need each person in the raid to be able to do 2600 DPS minimum on command, 3-5 different times throughout the fight.

Suggested DPS on this boss for heroic would be 3k per DPS'er

for melee DPS i would almost suggest just keeping them next to the Add's and have them assigned to targetting one each, then simply call out -assist person-, (this is assuming you have vent/TS), otherwise a lot of time will be wasted on transitioning targets.

note: current patch 3.1.1

Comentario de Kokorazashi

In a recent patch, they seriously nerfed the amount of HP each add has from 712K HP to around 500K HP. This should make things much easier, but would still be pretty much impossible if everyone is not pulling their own weight. This boss is somewhat on Ulduar level, and should be attempted if all of your DPS'ers are over 3K. If everyone in your group is in a nice amount of Naxxramas 25 gear, this shouldn't be that much of a problem. Another thing I seroisuly recommend is that you don't PuG Emalon, as you'll inevetably end up with the odd low DPS or 10, which will make it extremely hard, if not impossile to do. Emalon is a much harder boss than Archavon, and is not the weekly loot pinata next door.

Comentario de Paegan

People always make things like this sound much harder than they are. You don't need Naxx25 gear to do 3k dps with 25-man buffs. Sure, you're probably not going to beat this boss in blues, but after that the only hard part is finding people who have enough brain cells to run away from nova and dps the overcharged add. I pug this every week and it usually goes pretty smoothly. Same as most things in WoW - avoid the idiots and it isn't hard.

Btw, even a decently geared melee dps probably won't do 3k dps on the meters in this particular fight. There is too much time spent running out of nova and to/from the adds. They should be around 2.5k though.

Script for alts. Use only if you know what to do.
