There is a little thing on the floor outside you click. It takes like 30 seconds to start combat after so watching something while you do old stuff is good. Finding the thing on the balcony to summon Nightbane is a bit of a pixel hunt. But it IS there Old Kara out on the balcony is a small urn. Click it and wait, he will show up. Doesnt drop much of note. The tank must remember to keep an eye on the casting bar, and stance dance to avoid an early fear.
Nightbane will keep aggro on the tank, regardless of whether the tank is feared or not. This introduces the challenge of the tank being feared into the ranged group, but it does make paladin and druids tanks more of an option.
The most dangerous parts of this fight are the transitions between the Flight and Ground Phases, when the main tank must reestablish aggro. Hunters' Misdirection is especially useful here, to make sure the boss goes directly for the tank. Post away! Log in , it's free!

Item level. Item slot. Our strategy was to get the biggest trash packs possible and AE them down, while taking care to limit the number of unnecessary pulls. For the Banshees, try not to have more than 2 at once; the Terrify needs to be interrupted over anything else. Not really a mobility-intensive fight, nor is his HP particularly high. Two melee alternate interrupting Reverberating Shadows , with a third interrupt on standby just in case though it was only necessary due to one of the interruptors screwing up the order; a coordinated group will find 2 alternating interrupts sufficient.
Told the healer not to bother dispelling Burning Bones ; apparently it was surprisingly easy to heal through. Failure on this mechanic was the only thing that kept us from killing the boss first try. He flies into the air and summons adds. Save damage CDs for phase 2 and burst down the big add Bonecurse as quick as possible before Jagged Shards gets too high for your healer; the shards debuff lasts until the end of the fight, like Garrote.
We ended up with 6 stacks on our successful pull, though the healer pointed out that that was a bit high. We just cleaved down the other phase 2 adds. Phase 3 is the same as phase 1, but Nightbane occasionally casts Bellowing Roar , which slows the group and can fear players into the flames - apparently DKs can AMS the roar if other classes have anti-fear stuff, that probably works , although he casts it slightly too often ish sec?
Luckily we never had an issue with him fearing us long enough to prevent interrupts. Mount was personal loot, only 1 person got it per group for each run in our guild.
Comment by kellyislame In case anyone is wondering you cannot return to kill Nightbane at a later time once he is summoned. My group successfully completed a speed run this evening. When we all were able to log in almost an hour later, we zoned into Karazhan and discovered he was indeed gone. We had to find someone with a fresh Karazhan ID and complete the speed run again for a chance at loot.
Comment by rachiepoo Just succesfully killed him last night. The speed run to get to him wasn't nearly as hard as the boss itself. The rest of the group was just excited to kill him and didn't give me any explanation as far as healing went.
They told me not to dispel during phase 2 and did that when I could, but let me tell you healers, this is not an easy fight by any means. Perhaps other healing classes will do better in this fight, but as a holy priest it was really intense.
I'm sure there must have been missed interrupts or other such things that went wrong because even pulling k HPS we just barely got it. I guess the gist of my comment is if you are a healer healing this for the first time, be prepared to heal your ass off.
You easily have the hardest role in this fight. Comment by Nayen Not sure where I heard this, but I was told you could leave instance and come back to Nightbane any time during the lockout after you had successfully unlocked him.
Leaving and disbanding the group will result in him despawning and requires a new speed run to resummon him. Hope this saves someone's first successful guild run from losing Nightbane by planning to come back to him the next day Comment by Joergensen What difficulty do I have to run Karazhan on to summon it?
Four of us guildies downed him tonight and no one got the mount but he dropped in a 5 man group. Comment by Draconax Anyone know what ilvl Nightbane drops at now? Comment by Kochplatte Here is a list of mount drops from Instances, Raids, and World Bosses to save some looking around.
Comment by Elentil Can you summon him after they split the instance? Comment by Velln As of patch 8. When trying to summon him, the Image of Medivh will do the cut-scene, but Nightbane will not spawn. Comment by skyline33 I've just solo's him today as a Protection Paladin. No struggle in the instance at all, boss hits harder than expected compared to other bosses. Easily tankible but not sure how dps may fair.
Comment by Ne0s Just soloed this on my fwar but it didn't drop Compared to what you are required to beat to face him, Nightbane's noticeably harder, and I don't think it's soloable right now if your class does not have any kind of self-heal. It's pretty much going one-on-one against a level elite alone - not something you can just DPS through carelessly. For a level solo run, all the timers are very forgiving.
I had to backtrack a few times due to not knowing the layout or that annoying silence the Curator's adds have, yet I had over 6 minutes left by the time I killed the Curator. Had another run today and I had over 10 minutes left When the next expansion rolls out, Legacy Loot mode would make this mount a guaranteed solo drop. Comment by Zultim Just did it solo as an Ele Shaman i, no mount Comment by Arcalite Just a heads up.
My fiance and I ran nightbane for the mount, and neither one of us got it. Comment by tallensick Tried to do the run today, got to the door that you go through to get up to curator and it was just locked. Comment by HanzWermhatt It seems as of 8. Where I could solo it easily previously, I can only now just barely do so on a geared Rogue.
Would not attempt this below ilvl if your class has poor self healing.
