Captain Skarloc

Template:Stub/BC Template:CoT

Captain Skarloc is the second mini-boss of Escape from Durnholde in Caverns of Time.

Strategy

Skarloc comes with two adds, a healer and a warrior. These are mobs you have already killed around the Keep, and should be familiar. While tanking Skarloc, kill the healer as soon as possible, preferably stunning every heal he tries to do. After that, take on the warrior, and finish Skarloc after that. Skarloc doesn't hit extremely hard - but he can take a lot of hits, so Counterspell him where possible. He is immune to Curse of Tongues, but the other two can be feared out of the fight.

Note to above Your tank should easily be able to pick up Skarloc and the non-healing add (can someone find his name) usually the one on the left (facing him). If the rest of the group focuses on the Warden (healer), you should be able to down him within a mater of seconds, move to the next add, them down Skarloc.

Alternative Strategy: Skarloc has a fairly limited range on his heals. An alternate strategy if a class able to OT temporarily (rogue evasion/Cloak of shadows, hunter & warlock pets etc.) is to pull his adds outside this healing range. By doing this you are able to either kill or CC them both free of him healing or decursing them. Healers should stand between the MT on Skarloc and the dps group. Once both adds are dealt with, dps should be able to go all out on Skarloc as the tank would have generated enough hate to hold him.

Fear works particularly well in this fight. There is ample room to fear kite one or both of Skarloc's adds, and the only enemies in range to aggro are mid 20's beasts that are native to the area. A single warlock can easily down Skarloc's healer and keep it from doing anything besides running for the entire fight. Then the warlock can dispense with the warrior add, all the while leaving the other four to focus directly on Skarlok.
