[HEROIC 2+] Shadow Spawn (Quest)
 

This heroic Imperial mission takes place on Dromund Kaas and requires you to defeat a fierce creature that some Sith acolytes tried to bind but were killed instead. To fulfill this quest, you'll have to gather five runes and use them on an altar. The primary difficulty here is figuring out the order that you place them on the altar. The answer is found in the Sith code. After you've successfully place the runes, the creature will burst through a wall and attack you. The creature, a sithspawn, does melee attacks (including a knockdown) and has just over 15,000 hits, which makes for a challenging fight.

The order for the runes is:

  • Passion
  • Strength
  • Power
  • Victory
  • Freedom

Pretty easy to figure out the order if you know the Sith Code, or just read the text and match things up.  But if you're in a hurry, it is:

Passion

Strength

Power

VIctory

Freedom

Oh, and solo'd this as a Concealment-spec'd level 17 Operative.  For the final fight (after placing the runes on the altar) I let Kaliyo tank the Sithspawn.  I simply did my three melee moves to generate Tactial Advantage then used my two heals (Kolto Infusion and Kolto Injection) to keep her alive.  Took a little while, but was never in any real danger.

I also soloed this level 15 Sorcerer with Khem Val Companion tanking. The key is to use as little force as possible during the fight. Keep your minion high health if you can heal it(key) and your mana high by not using much for damage. At the very end he has a huge surge of energy, just kill him as quickly as possible when this happens, go all out save all your cooldowns for this. Don't heal yourself, kill him!
