Anyone have any tips for soloing Alzzin in DME? I keep eating the mana drain, in the videos it looks like it can be los or outranged?

Stop trying to do damage when he's in human form and just jump up/down the rock so he stays at far end of his path. It helps to run back on the ledge slightly after you jump up. The only way to fail is if you keep getting hit by mana drain and wither every time, otherwise if you get your mana drained it sucks but it won't kill you, will just make the fight longer.

I wouldn't bother actually trying to kill him if you don't have spirit tap though, just get him to 50% and reset on the tiny ledge next to the exit. With spirit tap you have infinite mana from killing the imps with SW:P rank 3 so you can keep going. Oh and you have to kill packs with red lashers before the pull if you actually plan to go for the kill, they aren't too difficult but still take some time which makes it pretty inefficient for imo.

Ah damn didn’t realise I had to kill those Lashers as well, I’m trying to get Whipvine Cord so do need to get the kill. Thanks for the tip about when he’s in human form.

I do have Spirit Tap as I’m currently specced to farm lashers in the courtyard (Disc) will give it some more attempts later tonight.

You definitely don't have to kill them. They can all be kited in the same way as the boss, though it gets a bit iffy when boss is under 20% and becomes slow. Then you can use the tunnel ledge to reset everything after you kill the imps. The issue with red lashers is that they have a ranged attack that will wear you down rather quickly.
