Tactics

This is a Fairly Simply Fight

He hits the tank for medium damage. Every 20% he runs to his anvil and casts "Temper" that produces several molten golem adds.

The adds do not hit hard but do cast immolation. If they are not DPS'd down in time they become "frozen."

Once he has cast Temper several times he will cast Shattering Stomp which causes the frozen golems to shatter for ~5k each. If they are stacked it can one shot people. However, shattering stomp has a cast time and is emoted allowing you to move away from any frozen golems.
