Despite being a stone giant in the hardest instance in the game (currently,) Kologarn is basically free loot if you know how to bring him down. Here’s a few tips to make it easier on yourself. This works for 10-person Normal mode.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Tank
  • 2-3 Healers
  1. Step 1

    Have your tank and any melee DPS stand right in front of him. Seriously. Get right up to his chest and stay there. Despite not even looking at his arms, you will still be able to hit both of his arms from being right at his base. Have ranged DPS and healers stand near the back. This is trickier, since they will need to dodge laser beams.

  2. Step 2

    DPS the Right Arm first. The Right Arm is capable of grabbing a random player and squeezing them for high damage. Destroying the Right Arm prevents this until the arm respawns. Always destroy the Right Arm first, then start in on Kologarn himself.

  3. Step 3

    Chip away at Kologarn until the Right Arm regrows. You will have several seconds to do this, so hit your cooldowns now. Switch back to the Right Arm immediately after it respawns.

  4. Step 4

    Keep destroying the Right Arm and moving back to Kologarn until he is at around 25% health. Once the Right Arm goes down again, quickly destroy the Left Arm, then blast Kologarn with everything you’ve got. This gives you a few seconds to burn him down without him hitting back hardly at all. Note that if you destroy both arms early in the fight, you will be wasting time; the Left Arm grows back faster than the right. Also note that this will rob you of valuable damage that can be used to kill Kologarn even faster.

  5. Step 5

    Enjoy the loot! The chest containing the loot is on the platform across the bridge that Kologarn forms when he dies.

Tips & Warnings
  • Have Healers and Ranged DPS stand in the middle of the platform. Standing near the back leaves you nowhere to go if you get targeted by the lasers.
  • Have melee and the main tank stack on each other. This makes AoE/Chain healing them a breeze.
