Movie Summary
Hello everyone !

Today, worldbosses ! Because Hunter's ain't the only ones who can do it :)

This solo is quite easy, but incredibly boring. It's 20 minutes running around and watching a huge health bar drop pixel by pixel. But you'll get a mount ! Wooo !

Alright let's talk tactics here. The principle of this solo is Scorch kiting. At level 100, you get +30% movement speed for 3s when you cast Scorch. But 130% is not enough to outrun Nok-Karosh. Fortunately movement speed changed with patch 6.0.2, as you can now stack movement speed bonuses additively.

You'll need the following items :

- A Fleet Primal Diamond. I took an old T16 helm and put that in.
- The +10 Movement speed enchant on cloak, from WoD.
- The Explorer's Walking Stick
- The Defiler's Cloth Boots, enchanted with Pandaren's step.

We got 100% baseline + 10% gem + 10% cloak + 10% staff + 10% boots + 10% boots enchant = 150% base MS (remember, bonuses stack additively)

Add to that the 30% Improved Scorch bonus, you'll get 180% (WA in video says 179 due to poorly rounding, nvm) movespeed, this time enough to endlessly kite Nok-Karosh.

Spec into Blazing speed and double Blink for emergencies.

Important point : in default "configuration", Nok-Karosh will aggro with 2 of his adds when you pull him. Notice how there are no wolves to the left of Nok-Karosh at the beginning, that's because I earlier killed them and resetted. I tried to sheep one but once it ended the wolf aggroed back. They are linked to NK so they never reset.

About the fight :

- From 100% to 50%, nothing special.
- From 49% to 20%, Nok-Karosh will often kite Call the Pack, increasing his MS by 30% for a few seconds. He is now faster than you, so stay max range and use Blink and Blazing Speed
- From 20% to 0%, he will still cast Call the Pack but has his baseline MS reduced, so you'll often have to wait for him to catch up.

Never stay too long without hitting him or he'll leash and reset.

Enjoy ! :)
