Spidermind Kir'nalax

Kir'nalax's Abilities

Phase One Abilities

•  Psionic Burst  —  Kir'nalax focuses on a random target. After several seconds, a burst of arcane damage will be dealt to the target, and additional damage will be dealt to anyone nearby.

•  Psionic Bomb  —  Conjures a bomb of psionic force at the location of a random target. After several seconds, the bomb explodes, damaging all nearby targets with arcane force.

•  Mindflare Orb  —  Conjures a sphere of shadowy energy that orbits around Kir'nalax. The sphere casts Mindflay on random targets, dealing them shadow damage and reducing their movement speed. Mind Flare Orbs can be destroyed, but when slain cause Fear on any targets within 15 yards.

Phase Two Abilities

•  Psionic Barrier  —  Prevents all damage and reflects spells and physical attacks back at the attacker.

•  Brain Drain  —  Extracts memories from the target and makes them real, summoning a Twisted Memory to attack.

Twisted Memory Abilities

•  Psionic Link  —  Damage dealt to the Dark Memory will be inflicted on Kir'nalax as well.

•  Horrify  —  Causes all nearby targets to run madly in fear for several seconds. 3 second casting time.

•  Death Wish  —  Conjures a sphere of dark energy that will focus on a random target. The target will become mind controlled and walk towards the dark sphere and, if it comes into melee contact, will explode and deal a large amount of shadow damage to anyone nearby. The sphere can be attacked and destroyed to break the effect.

Changes in Heroic Mode

• Kir'nalax will continue to use Psionic Bomb in phase 2.
• The Twisted Memory's Psionic Link only transfers 50% damage instead of 100%.
