Azeroth Survivors Anub'rekhan: Naxxramas First Boss

When Does Azeroth Survivors anub'rekhan Appear?

Anub'Rekhan arrives at the four-minute mark. Naxxramas boss times start when the run begins, so use that run timer to anticipate his entrance. He is boss one of five in the zone and the first encounter in its boss order, followed by Noth the Plaguebringer.

That timing gives you a clear point to prepare for the encounter. As the timer approaches the four-minute mark, be ready to respond to his marked attacks and the adds he summons. The fight asks you to watch the ground and his direction while making space to move. Azeroth Survivors anub'rekhan's arrival gives you a clear timer cue.

The reference values below summarize his listed base parameters. Difficulty and scaling change actual health and damage, and simultaneous casts also affect his base intervals. Treat the listed timings as a guide to his patterns rather than a promise that every action will occur in isolation.

How Much HP Does Anub'Rekhan Have?

Anub'Rekhan has four thousand six hundred base health. His base hit is 28, and his base move speed is 5.8. Those are listed base client parameters: difficulty and scaling change actual health and damage, so the health figure is a reference point rather than a guaranteed value in every run.

His health matters for planning because his actions speed up after his health first drops below 30%. Expect the pace to change at that threshold. Keep watching for warnings as you deal damage, and stay prepared to move even when you are focused on finishing the fight.

The health threshold and the action timings describe separate parts of the encounter. His base intervals can also be affected by simultaneous casts, so a pattern may not feel evenly spaced. Use the warning markers to make each immediate movement decision instead of relying only on a memorized timer.

If you are choosing a character before entering Naxxramas, browse the available class builds and class list for a setup that suits your play. These pages can help you compare options, while the encounter itself still rewards attention to the marked danger and room to move.

What Attacks Does Azeroth Survivors anub'rekhan Use?

Anub'Rekhan uses a frontal line attack, an action sequence, a persistent hazard, and a summon. His frontal line attack has a base interval of 7 seconds and a 1.4-second warning. Step sideways out of the marked line to avoid it; moving across the line is the key response to this warning.

The action sequence has a base interval of 12 seconds. It consists of two frontal line attacks, with a 1.2-second warning for the first step and another 1.2-second warning for the second. There is a 1.1-second gap between steps, so keep watching after dodging the first line instead of assuming the sequence has ended.

His persistent hazard has a base interval of 16 seconds and a 1-second warning. Move outside the marked circle before it resolves. The circle calls for a different movement response from the line: create space beyond its edge, then keep checking for the next warning.

The summon has a base interval of 13 seconds and brings in 6 adds. Keep an exit through the adds so the new enemies do not surround you. Across all of these moves, simultaneous casts affect base intervals, and his actions speed up after his health first falls below 30%.

How Do You Beat Anub'Rekhan?

To beat Anub'Rekhan, react to each warning with the movement it calls for. Step sideways out of the marked line, leave the marked circle before the persistent hazard resolves, and keep a route through the adds. These responses address the encounter's main positioning demands without relying on a fixed sequence.

For the action sequence, treat the first line as a warning that another line follows. The gap between steps is 1.1 seconds, and each step has a 1.2-second warning. After moving clear of the first marked line, stay alert and be ready to move clear of the second as well.

When the summon brings 6 adds, preserve an exit through them so they do not surround you. Keep that route in mind while handling the line and circle warnings. If you focus only on one marked attack, the other parts of the encounter can still demand movement, especially when casts overlap.

His actions speed up after his health first drops below 30%. That threshold is a cue to tighten your attention to the warnings and keep responding promptly. Base intervals can shift with simultaneous casts, so use the marked line and circle as immediate direction rather than expecting a perfectly spaced pattern.

A Hunter build or another class page can provide character-specific context before the run. During the boss fight, the practical priorities remain the same: sidestep the frontal line, get outside the circle, track both steps in the sequence, and leave a path through the adds.

What Drops From Anub'Rekhan?

Anub'Rekhan's boss page lists class loot and gives displayed percentages as base chances for each listed item. The listed Warrior drop is the Legendary Dreadnaught Legplates, with a 20% base chance. The listed Paladin drop is the Legendary Redemption Legplates, also with a 20% base chance.

Those are the class drops listed for this boss, with the chance shown as a base chance for each item. The listed values do not describe every possible reward or promise a drop on a particular run. Check the class entry that applies to your character when reviewing the loot.

The encounter order can help place this reward in context: Anub'Rekhan is the first of Naxxramas's five bosses, followed by Noth the Plaguebringer. For more about the zone, see the Naxxramas guide. You can also browse the wider boss list for other encounter pages.
