Leotheras the Blind Strategy — Serpentshrine Cavern

Phase 2 · Serpentshrine Cavern · 2 tanks + 1 warlock tank, 5 healers, rest dps

A control fight with an inner-demon mechanic. Leotheras alternates human (Whirlwind) and demon (Insidious Whisper — mind control) forms, and periodically spawns Inner Demons that each assigned player must solo-kill or be feared.

Fight phases

  1. 1

    Human form

    Tank Leotheras; he Whirlwinds for big raid damage — spread and heal through it.

  2. 2

    Demon form

    A warlock (Soul Link/Fel Armor) tanks the demon via threat wipe mechanics. Inner Demons spawn on random players — each must kill their own demon before it fears them.

By role

Tanks

Melee tank on human form (spread for Whirlwind). A specced warlock 'tanks' the demon form. Coordinate the form transitions so threat is ready.

Healers

Whirlwind is heavy raid AoE — pre-HoT and top through it. Watch players fighting their Inner Demon; they take and deal solo damage.

DPS

When your Inner Demon spawns, tunnel it down before the timer — a surviving demon mind-controls you. Don't push both forms out of sync.

Common mistakes

  • ✕A player failing to kill their Inner Demon and getting feared/MC'd into the raid.
  • ✕Standing stacked during Whirlwind.
