Abilities:
Lunge: grabs the highest threat target for a few seconds and attacks the 2nd highest threat target - also stunning all nearby enemies
Rock Shards: deals waves of damage to a target and all enemies nearby the target
Choking Cloud: leaps at a random target dropping a choking cloud - dealing damage and reducing chance to hit by 50% to all enemies in the cloud
Enrage: after 5 minuites Archavon will enrage dealing a significat amount of damage
Strategy:
Archavon is a typical tank and spank encounter with very few abilities to watch out for. Have the main tank grab the boss in the center of the room and make sure the ranged DPS and the healers are spread out to avoid multiple people getting hit by the rock shards and the choking cloud. There are 2 options for when the Archavon uses lunge - either have the offtank second on the threat list so that the boss will automatically change to the off tank - or have the offtank at max range away from the boss to avoid the stun from the lunge and taunt it right away. Rinse and repeat this with the main tank / offtank until the boss is dead.
