Gelihast
Vanilla WoW Classic 1.12 · x5 realm · wowx5.ruGelihast is the murloc leader of Blackfathom Deeps, guarding the flooded temple hall. The challenge is not the boss itself but the battlefield: you fight in the water among schools of murlocs, so preparing for the underwater stretch matters more than the tactics.
Tactics
- Prepare water breathing. The path to Gelihast runs underwater. Hand out water breathing potions or bring a shaman with Water Breathing, or the group will start drowning mid-fight.
- Find dry footing. Where possible, pull the boss onto shallow water or a ledge where characters stand on their feet — managing the fight on land is easier than in open water.
- Clear the murloc adds. Schools of murlocs roam around Gelihast. Clear them before the pull or assign crowd control to avoid extra damage during the fight.
- Break the net. Gelihast roots with a net and stuns. Healers and casters position so that a net hit doesn't shut down the whole group at once.
Notable Loot
| Item | Slot |
|---|---|
| Reef Axe | One-handed axe |
| Gaze Dreamer's Pants | Legs (casters) |
| Blue items level 24–26 | Various slots |
Reef Axe is a nice one-handed melee weapon for its level, and the Gaze Dreamer's Pants boost casters. Don't forget water breathing before the fight — it saves more runs than any roll.
