| − | '''Sethekk Halls''' is a wing of the [[Auchindoun]] [[instance]]. It's geared for 5 level 67-69 players (although it will appear in the dungeon finder menu for level 66 characters). The entrance is on the east side of the [[Ring of Observance]]. It is populated by renegade [[arakkoa]] and led by the insane [[Talon King Ikiss]]. It should take about 90–120 minutes to complete. Entrance to heroic mode requires all party members to hold the [[Auchenai Key]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Soloing this instance is viable at 80 and the potential loot drops from it make it reasonably lucrative to do so. For those who do not already have it, the [[Heroic: Sethekk Halls|achievement]] will be granted on completion. |
||
| − | |||
| − | == History == |
||
| − | Auchindoun is a former draenei holy site and Horde fortress in the middle of the Bone Wastes, in Outland's Terokkar Forest. It was a holy ground for Draenei burial until the Shadow Council took over, summoned an extremely powerful demon as old as time itself, and destroyed half of Terokkar Forest in the process. Different factions now vie for power in this magical spot: Ethereals suck the arcane energy from the Mana-Tombs, the Burning Legion harvests souls inside the Auchenai Crypts, Arakkoa zealots work dark magic in the Sethekk Halls, and the Shadow Council plots its domination of Outland from within the Shadow Labyrinth. |

| − | Sethekk Halls is a wing of the Auchindoun instance. The entrance is on the east side of the Ring of Observance. It is populated by renegade arakkoa and led by the insane Talon King Ikiss, who also carries the [[Shadow Labyrinth Key]] for the Shadow Labyrinth. The [[Sethekk]] are renegades who broke away from [[Skettis]] at the insistence of Ikiss and [[Darkweaver Syth]], and believe themselves to be the true servants of the mysterious master of all arakkoa. When Auchindoun exploded due to the summoning of [[Murmur]] in the Shadow Labyrinth, Ikiss and Syth led their followers to Auchindoun, believing this to be a sign of their master's return. There they remain, still searching for the master in the temple's ruins. |

| − | ==Walkthrough== |
||
| − | |||
| − | With the changes of patch 4.0.1, this instance no longer requires a great deal of strategy. |
||
| − | |||
| − | The only remaining serious danger is your own party. |
||
| − | *Several enemies can [[fear effect|fear]] party members, and fighting more than two groups at once can lead to a [[wipe]]. The [[shaman]]'s [[tremor totem]] is of great use here. |
||
| − | *The [[Time-Lost Controller]] can cast a Charm Totem to mind control one of your allies. It is therefore of primary important importance to kill any Charm Totems that appear, and to kill any Time-Lost Controllers before the can cast any [more] Charm Totems. |
||
| − | |||
| − | The final boss of the instance, [[Talon King Ikiss]], likes to cast an Arcane Explosion. It is a good idea, but not strictly mandantory, to break [[Line of sight]] to avoid taking damage. Since it only hits for about 5000 damage, an alert healer can keep the group alive even through multiple explosions. |

| − | ===Bosses=== |
||
| − | *[[Darkweaver Syth]] - Syth's primary special ability is that he summons a group of four elemental minions of various elements at each of 90%, 55%, and 10% health. These do substantial damage but are non-elites that are easy to destroy. The surest strategy is to pause to kill each set of elementals as it appears, as the party will have a hard time surviving the dozen elementals that will otherwise accumulate. The final set of four elementals may be ignored to concentrate on Syth as they despawn on Syth's death. |
||
| − | *[[Talon King Ikiss]] - Ikiss will periodically blink to a different party member and begin casting his arcane explosion, a five second uninterruptable AoE spell that does approximately 4000 damage. A raid message will appear saying that he's focusing his arcane energies. When this happens, the best technique is to use the cast time for everyone to run behind the nearest pillar. You should wait until after he blinks before hiding, however, or he'll just blink behind the pillar with you. It can be useful for the tank to create a macro to warn the party of the blink so everyone can hide promptly. Ikiss will also cast [[Polymorph]] on random party members. |
||
| − | *[[Anzu]] - Anzu (sometimes called the Raven God) is a boss in Heroic difficulty only. Summons adds twice during the fight, has a random targeted cyclone debuff and a random targeted debuff which will cause you to lose mana on spellcast. A druid healer can keep on heal over time spells on spawned statues for extra buffs. |
