Mal'Ganis is the last boss of Culling of Stratholme.

Attacks and abilities

  • Carrion Swarm: A cresting wave of chaotic magic splashes over enemies in front of the caster, dealing 3230 to 3570 Shadow damage and 380 to 420 Shadow damage every 3 sec. for 15 sec.
  • Sleep: Puts an enemy to sleep for up to 10 sec. Any damage caused will awaken the target.
  • Spell shadow unholyfrenzy [Mind Blast]: Inflicts 4163 to 4837 Shadow damage to an enemy.
  • Vampiric Touch: Heals the caster for half the damage dealt by a melee attack

Strategies

Mal'Ganis will spawn when the party enters Crusader Square at the end of the instance. Arthas will aid the party in the encounter, but does not tank the boss and does not do any special abilities. Mal'Ganis is like Anertheron, with an AoE spell and a Sleep spell. The party should position themselves behind him and as spread out as possible to avoid taking too much damage from this when he targets any given player. Sleep should be dispelled all the time. If not, it is also possible to use PvP trinkets and other similar methods like Spell frost frost [Ice Block]

His Vampiric Touch buff can be dispelled and should be done as soon as possible.

When Mal'Ganis reaches 1% health, he escapes, breaking combat and disappears after a little speech. The loot from the encounter is from a chest left behind. If the party wipes, Mal'Ganis despawns. Speak to Arthas to restart the encounter.

Quotes

Intro:

  • Yes, this is the beginning. I've been waiting for you, young prince. I am Mal'Ganis.
  • As you can see, your people are now mine. I will now turn this city, household by household, until the flame of life has been snuffed out forever.

Aggro:

Sleep:

  • Time out.
  • You seem tired.

Upon slaying a player:

  • All too easy.
  • The dark lord is displeased with your interference.
  • It is Prince Arthas I want, not you.

Outro:

  • Your journey has just begun, young prince. Gather your forces, and meet me in the arctic land of Northrend. It is there we shall settle the score between us. It is there that your true destiny will unfold.

Bug

12/20/08-During the encounter when Mal'Ganis reached 1% he did not go into the scripted scene and his hitpoints reset to 100%. The fight continued however once he reached 1% again he continued to lose HP until he reached 0% and he continued to fight. At this point, the group that I was in decided to wipe in hopes he would reset. We waited a few minutes and zoned back in only to see that Ma'Ganis and Arthas were at 0% hitpoints and locked in an eternal battle. The group decided to check the chest and it was not lootable. Awaiting a GM response.
