Toravon the Ice Watcher Tactics and StrategyToravon the Ice Watcher is the final boss in VoA. Considered to be the toughest but yielding the best rewards. This fight is all about properly timed tank switches, raid movement to avoid AoE damage from the Orbs and dispels to remove the snare left by his frost nova. Periods of high damage will occur from "Whiteout" where all frost damage is increased. Read on for full tactics and abilites and our Toravon the Ice Watcher Strategy. His release is timed for February 2nd at the same time Frostwing Halls is released in Icecrown Citadel and Arena season 8 starts.Toravon AbilitiesFrozen Mallet - Attacks have a chance to apply Frostbite!Frostbite - inflicts 1950-2050 damage every 2 seconds for 20 seconds. Frozen Orb - Summons a Frozen Orb, inflicting 2925-3075 damage every second to everyone within 8 yards. Whiteout - Increases frost damage taken by 25%, and stacks. Soft enrage mechanic. Freezing Ground - Immobilizes everyone around the target for 4-5 seconds. Appears around Toravon and where his orb adds spawn. Toravon StrategyMT pulls boss and tanks him in a corner. Off tank needs to be ready for tank switch when the MT gets too many stacks for the healers to manage, how many that will be will depend on your MT's maximum HP and your healers ability. Set your sights on 3-4 to start with.Around 30 second intervals he will summon Frozen Orbs (1 in 10 man and 3 in 25 man), these will float around randomly doing frost damage to anyone they come into range with. RANGED DPS MUST NUKE THEM ASAP. Approximately every 45 seconds he'll cast "Whiteout" on the raid. This will increase frost damage taken by all raid members and will espcially have an effect on the tanks. Frostbite damage will be increased with not only it's own stacks but also with "Whiteout" stacks making this a soft enrage mechanic and a DPS RACE! Freezing Ground is a Frost Nova rooting spell, watch the ground to see when it will appear, make sure to be out the way and if needed it can be cleansed from anyone stuck Massive nuke on the boss, claim your T10 Legs or Gloves and any Season 8 PvP gear that drops, and dont forget your Frosts!
