Notes

Ghazbaran - the "Lord of Blades", is a member of the Triangle of Terror. The cultists in the Formorgar Mines are said to be trying to revive the frozen demons in there to conjure the mighty archdemon. They are melting the ice in his name.

Behaviour

Ghazbaran runs away in low health. He also casts a defense spell on himself which will temporarily reduce every attacker's skill (depending on what he hits with) to 0. He will only remain in the realm for 4 hours.

Strategy

A pair of high levels knights can lure the monsters, one by one, until remain only the boss. Many high level knights are needed to block all Deathslicers ((also recommended to lure a monster and make it destroy the Deathslicers, the same way a Orc Berserker can kill other orcs to come near you) this can also be done with summoned Demon Skeleton's on pvp or pvp-enforced worlds. Simply trap the Knight blocking the Deathslicer with Magic Walls and then attack the Knight with the summons to kill the Deathslicer.)) and other knights (about 3) to block Ghazbaran (Stone Skin Amulets are strongly recommended, cause this powerful creature can even kill a knight of level 200+ with one combo). The main blocker will need a lot of healers, usually some blockers die trying to block with their own healing. The main blocker can also use Challenge to make sure Ghazbaran does not retarget on the shooters and healers. Then, just have many shooters to banish the Archdemon from our realm. This monster has extremely hard defense, it's immune to Ice Damage - and Sudden Deaths or Energy spells are best choice.
