Dungeon Journal
Valthraxx the Everliving. The Faded Lord of Azj'Aqir. Millennia ago, this monstrous emperor ruled the aqir civilization, a kingdom that stretched across the single great continent of Kalimdor. As their power grew, the aqir came into conflict with the other people of the land. The troll empire of the Zandalari united against the aqir and held back their armies, while the green, blue, and black dragonflights assaulted the central hive-cities where Valthraxx and his inner circle dwelt.

Valthraxx was met in battle by Neltharion himself, in a duel that shook the very foundations of the world, and saw Azj'Aqir consumed in a volcanic apocalypse. In the aftermath, Valthraxx limped away into the darkness of Azeroth's underworld, making his way to the northern aqir colony that would become Azjol-Nerub. Slowly healing over the millennia, Valthraxx lay dormant deep beneath the growing Spider Kingdom. When Nezar'Kali opened the forbidden vaults that contained his slumbering form, he awoke.

Nezar'Kali entreated the aqir emperor to save her people from the brink of extinction and restore them to greatness. The aqir emperor saw an opportunity to take his revenge upon the world, and concocted a diabolical scheme. The Newbreed are his children, altered by aqir blood magic to become an unstoppable force. A new Spider Kingdom would rise, an army of creatures part nerubian and part aqir, powerful enough to sweep away those who would stand against their father.

And the Newbreed are only the first phase of Valthraxx's plan...

Spells and Abilities
Valthraxx is a nightmare creature of insectile limbs and ancient fury. It is unknown how much of Valthraxx's frightening form is wrought by Old God mutation, and how much is simply his natural aqir body.

Phase One - Shatter the Obelisks
The first nerubians feared their slumbering former emperor, and constructed an elaborate vault to hold him. The four Eldritch Obelisks in this vault must be destroyed before Valthraxx can be directly assaulted.

Spectral Form of Valthraxx
While in the Shadow Realm, players must contend with adds until they can escape. If players look directly at Valthraxx while in the Shadow Realm, they will perceive him as a monumental mass of shadowy tendrils and glaring eyes.

Phase Transition - Evil Emanation
Valthraxx enters the Phase Two Transition when his health reaches 60%. He will not use any of his abilities while casting and damage against him will be absorbed. The shattered Obelisks surrounding him will begin to resonate with energy (two on 10-man, four on 25-man). Players will be able to operate an Obelisk like vehicles, and when operated by a player the Obelisks can be attacked.

As in phase one, attacking the Obelisks will cause them to build up energy. Once they have gathered enough, players can manually use them to cause a Directed Discharge. Players must aim the Obelisk so that they may fire Directed Discharges at Valthraxx. Once a Directed Discharge is launched, players will be ejected from the Obelisk and be cast into the Shadow Realm.

Valthraxx will begin casting Evil Emanation when his phase begins. It takes 1 minute to complete. If he is not struck with sufficient Directed Discharges to interrupt his casting, the raid will be destroyed. If he is successfully interrupted, Phase Three begins.



Spectral Form of Valthraxx
The Spectral Form of Valthraxx retains all of his abilities from Phase One while in the Shadow Realm.

Phase Three - The Faded Lord
Valthraxx retains all of his abilities from Phase Two. He also summons several new types of adds. Every time Valthraxx's health is reduced by 20% after reaching 60% health, he will enter Phase Two Transition again. Any adds still active will persist.







Final Transition
When Valthraxx's health is reduced to 1%, he will enter a Phase Two Transition for a final time. When he is successfully disrupted, the encounter will end and he will be slain.
