Volkhan is the second boss in the Halls of Lightning, located in the Iron Crucible. The Sons of Hodir consider him a threat to their existence, and thus send players to destroy him in 
[80D] Diametrically Opposed.
Background
Volkhan is a fire giant who is employed under the service of Loken inside the Halls of Lightning. Volkhan works many days and nights to create Golems to further the numbers of Lokens armies, until one day 5 champions of the Sons of Hodir slew the mighty fire smith and halt the production on more Golems for Lokens armies and eventually the mad titan watcher himself.
Tactics
This is a fairly simple fight.
He hits the tank for medium damage. At every 20% of his health, he runs to his anvil and casts "Temper", which produces several molten golem adds. The adds do not hit hard but do cast 
[Immolation]. Instead of dying, they become "frozen."
Once he has cast Temper several times he will cast Shattering Stomp which causes the frozen golems to shatter for ~5k damage each. If the golems are stacked, the stomp can one-shot party members. However, Shattering Stomp has a cast time and is emoted, allowing players to move away from any frozen golems.
A well-geared tank can off-tank the adds instead of killing them, avoiding the issue of shattering. This will also allow the group to obtain the heroic 
Shatter Resistant achievement.
