Witch Doctor Zum'rah is an undead troll caster by the large altar before the pyramid. He is dangerous with shadow damage, self-healing and the ability to raise the fallen: approached wrong, the group is quickly ringed by risen corpses.

Tactics

  • Careful approach. Corpses lie by the altar that Zum'rah animates. Move in tightly, do not

scatter across the room, or you will be surrounded.

  • Interrupt the heal. The witch doctor casts a healing wave. Kick, Pummel, Earth Shock or Fear

break the cast and sharply shorten the fight.

  • Handle the undead. Gather risen corpses on the tank and cleave them; do not let them hit the

healer.

  • Shadow resistance. His shadow spells strike random targets — group healing and a little

shadow resist make the fight safe.

FAQ

What is the undead that spawns near Zum'rah?

As you approach his altar the troll corpses around it rise — an ambush begins. Hold formation at the room's entrance so you are not surrounded, and kill the risen adds immediately.

How do you speed up the Zum'rah fight?

Interrupt his self-heal (Kick, Pummel, Earth Shock) and deny him fresh corpses to raise — focus the boss. Shadow resistance reduces his spell damage.
