Doesn't regrowth have a very high crit rate? Wouldn't it make it like a quasi chain heal for the melee clump? 15 yard radius is also fairly large, depending on positioning you may be able to catch a...

There's definitely a hard enrage on this boss. I think its at like 10 min though. We only hit it because we had maybe 3-5 people still up during one of our first attempts trying to kill them.
