Midway through the fight, Balnazzar shifts from his humanoid form, into a demon, taking flight. Overall, it isn't a hard fight, just keep up the DPS throughout.

Commentaire de galaxygoddess

THe best way to handle him, is your tank pull him to the far wall, and your healer stand with the back to the exact opposite wall.

He does an AOE stun and when I stand back like this I don't get caught up in it and I cna keep our tank alive.

He drops the flask of wisdom recipe and I have yet to see the stupid thing drop in my 78 runs of this place. *sigh

As a bit of useless trivia, Balnazzar was one of the random names given to Dreadlord heroes in Warcraft III.

Balnazzar is dead why does he live!!!! Blizzard fuckes the whole entire warcraft history !

Commentaire de catchmeifyoucan

I think really maybe Varimathras didn't kill him maybe he used somekind of spell that mayeb i don't know teleported him somewhere else or something like that because i don't think varimathras has guts to do that because he was so nervous when he wanted to do it even ner'zhul said that it's forbidded for dreadlord to slay dreadlord.

Solo'd as a 70 frost mage. ~9k health/mana in mostly pvp gear. Just barely got him down though. If I were a bit more organized it would have been better.

I just blasted his human form down with my water elemental out, then tanked or semi kited the demon form until my water elemental ran out of mana. Ice blocked, let the elemental die, cold snap'd a new elemental and continued. I had to use a health pot and bandaged.

To solo Bal with a BM Hunter:
1) Kill through to him how ever you want (Run and FD works sometimes). I chose to fight it.

2) Clear all around his room and the hallway

3) I say with a BM Hunter because you pet will be taking a lot of hits.

Setup:
Set up a snake/fire trap (you're choice I chose snake) just inside the room. Mis-direct on your pet and pull him to the trap. Have you pet tank him near the doorway (inside a ways) and stand away in the back.

Phase 1:
Keep Improved mend pet up all the time because he will stun you to where you cant heal your pet and your pet might die.

Just before he turns into Bal; place a trap, mend your pet and serpent sting him.

Phase 2:
Same thing with the first phase; keep mend up 100% (the sleep is much nastier than the stun) and place another trap and sting him,

2 times in a row he has slept me just before his death and my pet and serpent sting had to bring him down.

A Few notes:

-A turtle is an awesome pet for soloing low level instances with there high armor and shell shield ability. Any other high armor pet is fine as well.

-If you pet doesnt have at least 45% mitigation with 6k hp; prepare for a short fight for Balnazzar can hit and crit hard

-If you dont have at least 6000 mana; you may run out. You need to do all the dps you can within a short about of time. Steady shot is your best friend here.

i have heard he is some how related to the act of the creation of corrupted ashbringer and the highwarlords morgaine's son stabbing his father

anyone got tips for a feral druid? Tried cat form, tank gear, didnt work well

Commentaire de Corbon

He might fear you at least once throughout the fight, making you an easy target for his Shadow Shock which hurts even at Lv 70. The PvP trinket solves that problem. He also mind controls, but like Baroness Anastari and Kirtonos, won't use it when you're fighting him alone.

Commentaire de 51192

Possible, but definitely tough for a combat (19/42/0) specced rogue. Basically, this is what I found about the fight as a rogue:

Don't use any of your cooldowns while fighting Dathrohan. He's fairly easy to burn down, and will at most get you to 50-60%.
Balnazzar is the hard part. I blew all my cooldowns upon engaging him, attempting to burn him down ASAP.
Balnazzar crits for about 1300, so Evasion is really important here. Hope to get a lucky streak with 4-5 dodges between each hit. It helps a lot.
Unlike other mobs in the instance, you won't automatically resist his Mind Blast 90% of the time (guessing it's because he's level 62 and thus green rather than grey to you). Therefore, it may be an idea to use Cloak of Shadows if you're near death and he begins casting at you.
Use everything you can; potions, Charged Crystal Foci, whatnot. I was at about 400 HP when I killed him.

(This is all as a rogue in mostly tier 5-level gear, with 1/8 tier 6 and a few random MH/BT items. I'm thinking it might be easier in PvP gear due to the more stamina and lesser chance of receiving crits.)

Commentaire de Afrozombie

you can solo as a tank warrior but it will take you a very long time
Its recomended that you bring another person along that you know and split the loot since the drop rate for blues here is very high compared to other instances that drop BOE blues. Soloed all the bosses in the living side and killed bal within 2 minutes prob less
3 orbs dropped
5 BOE blues
and the tank warrior had D/E skill so we got some ok stuff all in all

Commentaire de oosweetdan

I just soloed Balnazzar, as a 5/11/45 ret pally pre kara gear, i used loh and armor +trinket and an ap +trinket, i didn't use ether of my bubbles but i ended with less than 200 hp left so they might have helped.

was working on my Vanity Dungeon 2 set but the boots have a crazy low drop rate...

Also side note i did sneak in, i only killed about three groups, using inviso pots and my eng trinket

Commentaire de 133573

And i have an question for all lore lovers. What is this guy doing here??? He was after by Verimathras at sylvana's command,before him Verimathras killed lord Garithos also at sylvanas command so why is he alive again???
And btw i think i can solo him with warr but not sure must try :D

Commentaire de Oppenheimer

Trivial to solo as a Holy Paladin - seal & judge wisdom, and gradually whittle down his health with exorcism and holy shock to be on the safe side. Keep your health above 50% in case he manages to CC you.

Stick up Shadow Resist aura to get ~90% resistance on his annoying Psychic Screams and Mind Blasts, and you're set! It took me about 5 minutes.

Commentaire de angorashi

An overall simple fight as a mediocre-geared aff lock. I'm geared in 3 S2 pieces, 2 T4 pieces, and the rest is kara/heroic gear. Not all that great, 11k health with blood pact on, which you'll have if you're aff.

There really is nothing special to this fight, just do the same thing you do with all of your fights: fully dot, make sure siphon is on, and draintank. While on my first run I had to healhstone when he turned into demon, becaus eI was running strat for the first time for kicks and didn't drain enough to last him out, I got him with over half health the second time.

The second time, I just kept unstable affliction, corruption and of course siphon lif on him, but this time I put Elements on him instead of Agony. Pretty much, it buffs siphon/drain life, which in turns heals you more. I'd reccoment it for any boss fight.

There's nothing to him, tank'n'spank fight.

Commentaire de Core

If you fight him as a shaman and use totems, he doesn't consider you "alone" anymore and uses mind control, instantly evading and resetting as your totems switch too and there is no enemy left. Particularly annoying because your tremor totem is very helpful here.
The solution: Summon a fire elemental. It's immune to mind control and doesn't switch if you get mind controlled. The tremor totem will dispel you soon.

Commentaire de 208864

just solo'd as mage 10.6k hp 9.6 k mana with about 200 hp left...not a very friendly fight

Commentaire de forgottenone

Thought he would of had his graphic changed to the same as Varimathras and Mal'Ganis.

Commentaire de 153653

But why is he an NPC in strath....I mean he is the most powerful dreadlord of Mag'Ganis and Varimathras....Balnazzar should be a 25 man raid boss in an instance in Northrend imo.

Commentaire de 310260

I'm puzzled as how he is in the game. Wasn't he killed by Varimathiras in The Frozen Throne?

Commentaire de 67121

I went to get the Strat achievement with a group of strong 80s, and we killed Dathrohan so fast he never changed into Balnazzar. If you want the achievement, let only one guy fight him until he changes. :)
It'd been so long since I was in Strat that I had to look him up here and go back to solo him to get my 10 ach. points. It was late, so I hearthed out after killing Bal only to realize that I'd AGAIN forgot to burn the damn library for the archivist quest.

Commentaire de 222376

It can be assumed that he is dead for good now, seeing how one of the ways to prevent the cycle of "Rebirth" that the Dread Lords have, is to decapitate the enemy.
And one of the quests requires the head of Balnazzar

Commentaire de Daralyn

Is Varimathras loyal to the Forsaken?'

are you joking?...

He is a Dreadlord...if it will be chance...he will tore Sylvanas to pieces and claim his hand on forsaken alone, to make a bloody mess from all Azeroth

Commentaire de 556119

Does anyone know if he still drops the recipe for distilled wisdom
as so far killed him 10 times and nothing , so just wanted to make sure it still dropped as i want it for my holy palli :D

edit : just got it to drop after 14 runs :)

Commentaire de speedywill

if memory serves correctly in Warcraft 3 Balnazzar was the biggest out of the 3 dreadlords
Varimathras (red) Detheroc (green) were about the same size but Balnazzar (purple) was taller and let out more bats than the other 2

Commentaire de 108775

Cataclysm Spoiler here:

After the disbanding of the Scarlet Crusade, Balnazzar dropped the disguise of the High Crusader, and went on a killing spree, eradicating the 'living side' of Stratholme City. Then he used his wicked skills to raise his former servants as undead minions, referring to them as 'Risen'. Thus, the instance Stratholme is now fully undead-dominated, with the Scourge and Risen forces facing each other on the cursed streets.

Commentaire de Sirvi

so in future sight...Ol' Varimathras will be coming back again-I assume...as well as with thrice killed Balnazzar. Yeah, of course Stratholme was merely a set back the FIRST time.

You think Balnazzar would learn his lesson by now seeing he is the NPC that has been killed 3 times already.

Commentaire de 748485

Very fun dungeon, had many bosses, some challenging some not. When I first accepted the quest I had seen the picture of the boss and thought to myself it would be a very hard boss, but after going to him he seemed to be not that hard, and he had some decent drops, I liked how two of the quest givers spawned to the boss to complete the quests after the battle.

Commentaire de 44464

I don't think you can kill another player under the effect of Domination. The loudmouth jerk of a shaman ended up mind controlled during the fight and I landed what should have been a killing blow. Instead of dying, Domination broke early and left the shaman with 1 HP left. Damn!

Commentaire de 886820

If you kill Balnazar then Maxwell Tyrosus appears and says that if you kill a dreadlord in the real world his soul goes back to the Twisting Nether and he reborns.He also says that he might be planning new evil deeds with his brothers.

Commentaire de ThenotsobraveDK

I love his model

Commentaire de reflexgaming

With the new patch i find the best way to beat him is pull the boss, have your healer stand in the room while you los him at the door, then run in before he runs out and resets, pop all defensive's and burn boos, or if you have movement speed abilities pat him around

Commentaire de Hosoboi

Balnazzar appears once again in the Broken Shore scenario when Gul'Dan summons his army of demons, thought that was pretty cool

Commentaire de Reggmuffin

Balnazzar also drops an epic off hand item called 'The Book of the Dead'. It just dropped for me.
