Glubtok

Glubtok, the Foreman, is an ogre mage and the first boss of the Deadmines instance.

At some point Glubtok destroyed his own ogre mound with his magical abilities. During the time following the Cataclysm, he ran extortion operations out of the Jangolode Mine. It was in the mine that he was approached by Vanessa VanCleef, who had heard of his destructive power. She gave him a choice: Risk his life attempting to crush her, or join her and be rich and powerful. He chose the latter option and joined the Defias Brotherhood, acting as the foreman of their mining operations.

''In a fit of rage, Glubtok unleashed his potent magical abilities and reduced his ogre mound to ash. Upon hearing of his destructive talents, the Defias hired the massive ogre mage to supervise their laborers as head foreman of the Deadmines.''

At 50% health, Glubtok blinks to the center of the room and levitates in place. Glubtok then begins to cast Fire Blossom and Frost Blossom spells randomly throughout the room.

Glubtok will alternate Fists of Frost and Fists of Fire. Fists of frost will slow the movement and attack speed of the tank and nearby players and Fists of Fire will cause his melee attacks to deal AoE Fire damage and have a small knockback. Glubtok will blink between fist cycles.

Once Glubtok reaches half health, he will deep freeze the entire party and teleport to the center. He will then gain Arcane Power, causing him to float above the ground (still attackable by melee) and channel a spell causing him to shoot fire and frost at random locations, visibly marked. In this phase, the party needs to DPS him down while avoiding his attacks. He no longer melees and only uses the fire and frost abilities.

In phase 2, a wall of flame will appear and slowly rotate around the room, centered on Glubtok. It is easy to avoid, but everyone must pay attention to it as touching it will deal massive damage to any party member. Also, Fire Blossoms and Frost Blossoms will spawn near where ever one of the spells of the same name landed. You should get rid of them as soon as possible as a lot of these adds will sum up to a lot of damage. It is a good idea for everyone to get together as phase 2 starts, because the tank cannot cross the fire wall to protect party members once it is up, and all adds that have been aggroed by the tank will be hit by any AoE spells the players cast.

Any player who finishes the fight without taking damage from the fire wall will earn the achievement Ready for Raiding.
