General Umbriss

General Umbriss is a twilight dragonspawn and the first boss of the Grim Batol 5-player dungeon in World of Warcraft: Cataclysm.

As Azeroth's champions and their red dragon allies assault the gates of Grim Batol, the malefic General Umbriss leads the fortress's cultists and twilight dragonspawn defenders.

• Malignant Trogg — Malignant Troggs have low health and are cursed with Modgud's Malice.
• Trogg Dweller — Trogg Dwellers have low health.

Umbriss eriodically summons one Malignant Trogg and three Trogg Dwellers, starting shortly after the pull. The malignant ones are purple and always spawn on the left side when you are facing him. There will only be one malignant trogg alive at any given time. If the malignant trogg is CC'd, the next summon will only have 3 trogg dwellers.

The Malignant Troggs apply a stacking debuff on their melee target. It also has the curse Modgud's Malady. If it is killed near another trogg or the boss, it will spread the disease to other Troggs or Umbriss, and enrage them. Therefore it must be killed away from other troggs and the boss. Alternatively, it could be CC'd throughout the entire fight. To complete the achievement Umbrage for Umbriss, the malignant trogg should be CCed, and then released at around 10-15% and brought to the boss (either by a high threat DPS, Death Grip, or a tank taunt) and killed.

Tank and melee must be careful to avoid Ground Siege. It's a front AoE, and Umbriss does not move while casting, so it is very easy to dodge.

Healer needs to watch for Bleeding Wounds on tank, and heal the tank to at least 90% to prevent the debuff from doing any extra damage.

Ranged damage dealers and healer need to watch for Blitz being cast on them, and move away if it is. This functions similarly to the charge stun from Icehowl in Crusader's Coliseum, charging the previous location of the targeted player. When the ability is announced, the targeted player should quickly move away (and out of the route of General Umbriss). Any player can be damaged or killed by this ability, so all players near the targeted player must also move. Cloth wearers can potentially be one-shotted by this ability.

At about 30%, Umbriss enrages (Frenzy). A hunter may use Tranquilizing Shot to remove it. Otherwise everyone should use any cooldowns left and burn him down before the damage on the tank overwhelms the healer. Alternatively, he may be kited.

As a final note to skinners, he can be skinned, but this requires 530 skill. Presuming you have maxed your skill at 525 and are not a worgen, you will need a glove enchant, and either Pip's Skinner or Zulian Slasher/Zulian Slicer.
