In order to shatter the Wyrmrest Accord and to crush those that would stand in the way of their master's reemergence into Azeroth, a powerful war party of the Black dragonflight—led by the fearsome twilight dragon Halion and his lieutenants Saviana Ragefire, Baltharus the Warborn and General Zarithrian—has launched an assault upon the Ruby Sanctum beneath Wyrmrest Temple.

This particular lieutenant, Baltharus the Warborn, appears to be a drakonid: a variant of the dragon, which was first sighted in Blackrock Spire. This particular type of dragon, though is the product of experiments put on by Death Wing's son, Nefarian, inside Blackwing Lair.

Baltharus the Warborn is a member of the Black dragonflight mini boss. He will appear in World of Warcraft as one of the three sub-bosses in the Ruby Sanctum encounter, which will be implemented in patch 3.3.5.

The split reminds me of the Prophet Skeram from AQ temple

The only thing i'm upset about is that his aggro quote has already been used.

Downed him tonight, best if you tank him facing into the tree trunk, that way when he clones himself your OT will not get knocked out of taunt range. Makes it easier to pick up the clone.

we are trying to do this boss but for some reason his blade tempest is destroying the tanks, why are they taking so much damage?

Upon his split, notice that any and all dots placed upon him are cleared and will need to be reapplied. As a MM hunter used to boss fights where I apply serpent sting at the beginning and then when procs align, I'm used to serpent sting being on the boss all the time. So it took me a few tries during our attempts last night to notice that my dot needed to be reapplied after the splits.

just FYI....

This applies to 10-man RS, and are notes from our guild's first attempt at the new raid (downed all three mini-bosses, had to call due to time before downing Halion):

We positioned Baltharus halfway down the hill back toward the entry portal, next to the large dragon skeleton. All melee DPS should hang back until the tank has the boss positioned and turned away, as the boss does a nasty frontal cone attack that will one-shot most melee DPS. All melee DPS should stack behind the boss; all ranged melee should spread out, at least 12 yards apart, around the base of the hill.

Every 15-20 seconds, he will cast a debuff called Enervating Brand on 2-4 people in the raid. This debuff "auras" out to anyone within 12 yards. Every 2 seconds, the debuff will tick, decreasing the DPS output of anyone within range by 2% - but more importantly, increasing the boss's DPS output by 2% for each tick as well. When melee gets this, they should run up the hill toward where the boss started to get out of range; ranged should be spread out already and shouldn't have to worry too much.

Healers need to watch for the boss to start casting Blade Tempest. This is the name of the frontal cone attack the boss does. It's essentially a cone whirlwind attack, and it hurts - a lot. The tank was getting hit for 30-40% of his health each tick, and it lasts for a good 5 seconds. Start queuing up a big heal a second before this starts, and prepare to just spam your big heal until it's over. Tanks, if you have short-cooldown defensive clicks, using them here will help the healers a lot.

At 50%, two things will happen: First, the boss will do a fire nova AoE that does quite a bit of fire damage, and knocks all melee way back. I'd suggest that melee - or at least the off-tank - back away at about 52% so that they aren't blown out of range. The reason why the off-tank shouldn't be knocked back? Well, the second thing that happens is the boss clones himself. This clone has all the same abilities as the original boss, and has the same amount of health. The clone will immediately aggro onto (probably) a healer, so the off-tank must be in a position to pick him up right away. Once grabbed, the off-tank should move him well away from the main tank (we used the dirt mound opposite the skeleton, on the same hillside).

At this point, the raid should burn down the boss as quickly as possible. Both bosses will use Blade Tempest, and it's rough to keep up as a healer because that's a huge amount of damage being pumped out to both tanks. Note that Enervating Brand is still cast even after the cloning, so it's important to keep spread out, as the debuff ticks will now affect both the boss and his clone.

Downing Baltharus rewards you (dum dum dah duhhhh!) a Frost Emblem. Nope, no epics for all that.

Most likely one of the worse voice actings in wow. Sounds like a cartoon character.

Melee: Type /range 12. This pops up a little window that shows who is within 12 yards of you at any given time. You must be 12 yards away from the tanks when Baltharus casts Enervating Brand or you will kill them. Your raid leader should mark each tank with a raid symbol so you can easily determine who is a tank from your /range list. If you position yourself correctly after the pull, the boss is large enough that you should already be 12 yards away from the tank in your natural position and shouldn't have to move at all during Enervating Brand (given this, ignore Deadly Boss Mods when it tells you to run away during Enervating Brand). It shouldn't matter if melee are close together during Enervating Brand, the main thing is to stay away from the tanks. He will also cast Blade Tempest, the "whirlwind" move. Apparently this only damages the tanks but if you want to be safe you should step back for 4 seconds, then return to your original position. When the boss clones himself at 50%, stay on the original boss.

Ranged: Type /range 12 and spread out 12 yards away from anyone else. If you stay spread out you shouldn't have to move during the fight. When the boss clones himself at 50%, stay on the original boss if you're DPS.

Tanks: The main tank should face the boss away from the raid. At 50% he will make a copy of himself. It is critical that the off tank picks up the copy ASAP and kites him as far away from the raid as possible. Plan it out so the off tank knows exactly where he needs to kite him and has enough room to do so. If you don't keep the bosses apart melee will have difficulty dealing with Enervating Brand and Blade Tempest will kill people. Our strategy was to tank the original near the mountain, and kite the clone to the tree nearer to the dungeon entrance. Marking the original and clone with raid symbols is not necessary if you keep the two far enough apart.

This guy is a $%^&* to PuG on my realm. We do fine until the split, and the healers forget to heal the OTs Blade Tempest.
