Race Undead
Level 93 elite Boss
Location Therak's Tomb, Ahn'Vekir, the First City
Status Killable

Therak the Mighty was entombed in the First City long ago, after the Azj'Aqir had settled the underworld in Northrend but before their evolution into the nerubians. His spirit was so consumed with evil intent that it was not safe to simply lay him to rest - his people had to bind his evil soul to his tomb. Over time, Therak has grown mad with his confinement and seeks to drag the living into eternal torment with him.

Abilities

Phase One - Obelisks of Binding

Three Obelisks of Binding are present at the Prison of Therak. These three obelisks must be destroyed to render Therak vulnerable.

Therak the Bound Abilities

  • Ability creature cursed 03.png Shadow Slay  —  Anyone not protected by an Obelisk of Binding will be immediately destroyed by Therak. Players have 10 seconds to find shelter after the encounter begins and after an Obelisk is shattered.

Obelisk Abilities

  • Spell fire twilightfireward.png Shield of Binding Dark  —  The power of the Obelisks protects those nearby from Therak's power. Being within the aura shield of an Obelisk will prevent players from being destroyed instantly by Therak.
  • Spell shadow shadesofdarkness.png Shed Power  —  Whenever the Obelisk loses 10% health, it emits a blast of dark energy, dealing shadow damage to anyone nearby.
  • Spell shadow summonvoidwalker.png Shattering Power  —  Whenever the Obelisk loses 25% health, it emits a powerful burst of evil energy, dealing shadow damage to anyone nearby and increasing the damage they take from shadow attacks.
  • Spell shadow blackplague.png Obelisk Spirits  —  When the Obelisk loses 85% of its health, it causes three Obelisk Spirits to spawn, which will attack anyone nearby. Spirits use only basic melee attacks.
  • Spell shadow devouringplague.png Obelisk Wraith  —  When the Obelisk loses 55% of its health, it will spawn an Obelisk Wraith, who will attack anyone nearby.

Obelisk Wraith

  • Trade archaeology nerubian obelisk.png Bound to the Obelisk  —  The Wraith is connected to the Obelisk of Binding that spawned it. It will remain alive as long as the Obelisk is intact, and will be immediately destroyed if the Obelisk is shattered.
  • Spell shadow chilltouch.png Darkness Claw  —  Deals physical damage to the primary target and causes periodic shadow damage over several seconds.

Phase Two - Therak the Mighty

  • Spell shadow psychichorrors.png Gaze of Ancient Horror  —  Teleports a random target to the former location of one of the three Obelisks and stuns them. Causes an evil spirit to spawn in the center of the three and move towards the target. If the evil spirit reaches the target, they will become permanently mind controlled. The spirit must be destroyed before it comes into contact with the target.
  • Spell shadow curseofachimonde.png Malediction  —  Deals shadow damage to everyone present.

Strategy

Therak begins the encounter bound within the field of three Prison Obelisks. Phase One of the encounter involves attacking and destroying the three obelisks in order to render Therak vulnerable to direct attack. Players must destroy each obelisk and then move onto the next. Players are protected from Therak's assault while close to an intact obelisk, but will be vulnerable when an obelisk is destroyed. When all three obelisks have been destroyed, phase two will begin.

Therak will use all of his phase two abilities until he is slain.

Achievement

  • Therak the Mighty - Defeat Therak the Mighty in Heroic Mode.
  • Spirited - Engage Therak the Mighty with nine Obelisk Spirits still active and then defeat Therak the Mighty.
