Does he finish casting Deth Strike (and consume the health) if you disengage out of melee range while he casts it?

slowly :P frost traps and concussive shot slow him down and then its just u avoiding getting into melee range and dpsing him down to 8 million hp.

doing it at 3am on the PTR is one thing, cant imagin how unfun this will be on live with people everywhere or on a pvp and having some opposite faction come gank u 35 minutes into u trying to tame it.

He is kinda out of the way i wouldnt have noticed him if I hadnt been tracking beasts.
near the spider area

Hmm, if he's susceptible to Concussive Shot along with the Ice Trap, I'd assume he can be affected by pet abilities as well. I'd probably tame a disposable chimaera and utilize their slowing prowess to help with the kiting.

I still wonder if there's a way to make him use Deth Strike and not be killed by it...it seems too...unique for it not to play into the taming other than a 'stay the hell out of melee' mechanism.
