Abilities:

Hateful Strike: Large amount of physical damage attack on the character with the highest health in melee range
Enrage: casts at 5% HP - increase attack speed and damage
Berserk: casts after 7 minutes - increase attack speed and damage greatly

Strategy:

Patchwerk is the hardest first boss of all the wings and a gear check for the entire raid. The fight requires 2 tanks - one to tank the boss and one to absorb the hateful strikes. No one else in the raid will be taking damage so the healers only need to focus on the 2 tanks. Past that have all of the DPS go all out on the boss as he will berserk in 7 minutes wiping the raid.

Tips and Tricks:

Since hateful Strike hits the highest health player in melee range the melee DPS should jump into the slime before the pull to lower their health and prevent accidentally dying to a hateful strike
The offtank will take significantly more damage the the main tank due to hateful strikes - and it is recommended to have the best geared tank off tank the boss

pop  - hateful info   |2009-04-04 22:05:57 The 40-man level 60 version of Patchwerk selected hateful targets from the 2nd, 3rd and 4th melee targets on threat, however due to misunderstandings about the mechanics melee DPS would often get the slime debuff to reduce their HP. This misunderstanding has continued to the present today. It is not and has never been necessary for melee DPS to reduce their HP if the tanks are all doing their job.
