Boss Monster: Keirax The Energy Wielder
Strategy: Keirax fires off a huge AE every 30 seconds which is multiplied by the number of Energy Orbs he has orbiting him. A 1 orb AE does approximated 12k Focus damage. 2 Orbs is a double hit of 12k, so 24k. Similar for 3 or 4 orbs. The key is to ensure there are NO orbs up. The trick is, the Orbs are NOT targettable.
In the centre of his room is a pool of lava and a oddly cool looking blue glowing structure. Jumping onto the blue energy thing launches the player up toward Keirax and his orbs. This is the key. Designate 1 or 2 melee players (tank plus a non-ranged dpser) to jump onto the crystal. Their job is to bounce into the orbs which dissipates them! Meanwhile the rest range dps the boss, who is pretty low HP.
If your group is all melee dps, get everyone except the healers on the blue thing and autoattack him to death with the odd CA thrown in. It is of paramount importance to dissipate the orbs though as even 1 AE can critical hit and kill everyone. Keirax doesn't seem to have any other attacks other than the huge AE.
Kierax is even easier these days. I took an 85 wiz with the defiler merc in and just stood there pounding at him. Every time I got hit with the AE, I was immediately healed to full.
