Onyxian Warder - Facts
Level: 80 (Elite) Gender: Male Race: Dragon (Dragonkin) Health: 882k (10-man) 1.89 million (25-man) Affiliation: None Location: Onyxia's Lair Cash: 59 55

These NPC's can be found in Onyxia's Lair.

These NPCs guard the tunnel leading into the inner sanctum of Onyxia's Lair. There are 4 of them, 3 of which patrol the path back and forth.

When Onyxia is engaged they respawn to prevent people from hiding in the tunnel. When she is defeated they will despawn.

It is important that while engaged in the fight against Onyxia that no players get too close to the tunnel opening as these can aggro and can easily cause unnecessary deaths by complicating the fight.

Abilities

• Cleave

• Fire Nova Inflicts 3-4k (25-Player: 4-5k) fire damage to all targets in a 20 yard radius.

• Flame Lash - Inflicts 4-5k (25-Player: 7-8k) Fire Damage and reduces the targets Fire Resistances by 30 stacking up to 3 times.

• Pierce Armor - Reduces armor value by 75% for 20 seconds.

Strategy

These should be tanked far enough away from ranged classes to minimize the damage done by Fire Nova to the raid. When they cast Pierce Armor on the tank, a secondary tank should immediately taunt these off the debuffed tank.
