Emperor Thaurissan abilities and talents
In Warcraft Rumble, Emperor Thaurissan is a Blackrock leader with the abilities Lava Spike and Fiery Weapon. Lava Spike, in particular, is a ranged elemental attack that can also deal melee physical damage.
Ability Description | Lava Spike Thaurissan targets the farthest enemy within range, and slams the ground, summoning a magma pillar below the enemy. | The magma pillar deals damage to the target and nearby enemies within a small area, and applies Burn. | The ground slam also causes a small earth spike directly in front of Thaurissan, applying physical damage to all enemies in melee range. | Thaurissan will target enemies within melee range if no ranged targets are available, summoning the magma pillar, and the earth spikes directly in front of him. | Fiery Weapon Allies apply Burn when dealing physical damage. |
When the ability is used, Emperor Thaurissan summons a magma pillar below an enemy to deal targeted damage plus damage to nearby enemies. This also applies Burn. Additionally, Lava Spike has a ground slam that deals physical damage within Emperor Thaurissan's melee range.
