Essential abilities: Multiple Cleanse
Strategy:Kill adds during this fight.
Mechanics: Sword and Hammer: The boss switches between these buffs. Sword buff gives him Double Strike, while Hammer gives him a 360 degree AoE cleave.
Group Pull: Pulls the party to him and puts a 50% snare on everyone. Run back out immediately. Cleanse the snare if you can.
Debilitate: Single target debuff (have 2 cleanses in case healer gets debilitated). Cleanse this ASAP.
Rain of Fire: Red AoE Bubbles, avoid them. Flame patches are left on the ground for 10 seconds or so.
Hammer Phase: At some point, the boss swaps to Hammer permanently. He will emote "Admiral Nezavar chases after [player]!" That player needs to kite the boss until he emotes again with another player. The group should stay at range to give time to kite effectively.
