Tortos

Over the millennia, small amounts of mogu flesh-shaping magic seeped into the caverns below the Thunder King's citadel. The dark energies warped one of the chamber's native dragon turtles, melding it to the surrounding crystalline walls. Known as Tortos, this amalgamation of flesh and stone has since feasted on the cave's rich mineral deposits and grown to a colossal size.

From the adventure guide, with tank, healer and damage notes.

Call of Tortos

Tortos lets out a rumbling call, causing several smaller turtles to enter the area and attack players.

Whirl Turtle

Spinning Shell

The turtle chases players around the room, spinning rapidly and continuously inflicting 372 Physical damage to enemies within 5 yards, knocking them away.

Shell Block

The turtle hides in his shell at low health, gaining immunity to all damage. While in this state, the turtle can be kicked across the room by players, applying Shell Concussion to any creatures it hits along the way.

Kick Shell

This extra action button can be used to kick a defeated Whirl Turtle across the room. Move close to the shell, then aim by positioning it between yourself and your target. Enemies hit by the shell are afflicted by Shell Concussion.

Shell Concussion

When kicked, the shell spins forward, interrupting enemies it touches and leaving them off-balance, increasing the damage they take from all sources by 50% for 15 sec.

Furious Stone Breath

Inflicts 0 Nature damage to all enemies every 0.5 sec for 4.5 sec. Costs 100 Fury to cast.

Growing Fury

Tortos becomes angry when no enemies are in melee range, gaining 10 Fury.

Rockfall

A lightning-charged stalactite falls from the roof of the cave, inflicting 0 Nature damage to enemies within 5 yards and 0 Nature damage to enemies within 20 yards.

Quake Stomp

Tortos performs a massive stomp, stunning all enemies for 1 sec and inflicting Physical damage to each equal to 7% of their maximum health. Quake Stomp also increases the frequency of Rockfalls for 8 sec.
