nope I do it in 14-15 min on my first play through
take down his "daughter" first then light him
and you can kill his minion as he will run away seeking for dark area

Even 15 minutes is ridiculously long for a single fight...

If you use high level spells you may shorten the timing but I am not the one too use high level spells often, I mainly just use bow and crossbow against him with normal arrow/crossbolt as well

I believe many players can clean it lots faster than me, especially the one with good stat characters

Min maxed party of really good dps classes (paladins, shock arcanists, rangers with undead as favored enemy)...stuff like that can take him down in 3-5 rounds even on cataclysm.

Trick is prep and positioning. Like omg lets open that sarcaphagus with a toon with misty step and position the overall party favorably outside.

Start the fight from stealth and maybe have everyone tunnel boss from first round after starting invisible.

Heck a shock arcanist with their buffs up to up damage probably can launch an upscalled fireball or two in thefirst round where the vamps are grouped up or upscaled scroching ray to soften him up immediately...then send in the palis to smite it out of existence. And a ranger or rogue pewpew it. Ranger with radiant arrows/ colosus slayer hunter and favored enemy undead can dish lots of damage to it. Also haste the palis so they get like 4-5 smites in a round gg.

Another fun strat might be to use a couple of heavy nukers like wizards to prep eveyone with a bunch of fireballs and then send in a horde hunter ranger in to deliver a bunch of finishing blows in one turn.

You can kill his daughter in 1 round. Total fight should not be more than 10 min unless you never knew the mechanic or complete dumb. My last play it took a few minutes. The wrong thing in the video for me is that you try to chase every single one of them. Cleric cast daylight and put everything in ready mode and wizard use lighting bolt if they are still far away, your ranged character will kill the brood and razan will spend his legendary action back and forth to escape and finally he's running out of movement point to get close to attack you and surely he land next to your melee char and start beat the sh1t out of him ezpz

This fight is quite quick. Use a cleric/paladin spell of sunlight and he takes damage every turn he takes

[Lampros]

This fight took 5 minutes or less. I don't understand how it can take you 30 minutes or more.

If you use your spells and abilities it's not a long fight. You know what you're fighting and there' a rest area nearby so prepare daylight, spirit guardians etc and the monsters are going to die. If you cast daylight up in the air it covers the entire tomb and projects out of the doors and windows. They're attacking at disadvantage and taking radiant from the spirit guardians every time they approach. I found it easier to deal with the minions first so that Razan is less likely to produce a darkness cloud until he's the only one left.

Make sure you take out the vine/windows as it extends the radius of daylight out into the courtyard. I also like to put a wall of fire up on the balcony as the first time I fought him I noticed that both he and his "daughter" liked to move back into a corner that daylight apparently doesn't reach. If you put some fire up there it negates that from happening.

If you have the right setup it isn't to hard if you don't this can be a long fight. The most annoying thing is he ports around to find places he can regenerate, so if you have a lighted area. Using spells or even simple torches your options are to turtle up and let him come to you or try and chase him around which usually ends poorly.

yup, daylight and vamps do not mix well. all sorts of penalties and of course, damage every round they are forced to stay in the reach of daylight.

" If you put some fire up there it negates that from happening."

firewall ftw.

I really have no idea how 1st Razan fight works (there's side quest in the game where you need to finaly deal with him which leads to a way harder battle). For me, it was like he'd lost half of his HP (on Cataclysm) and then dragon has awoken and finished him. May be you just need to hold on for some turns or so? However, TS said it was a half-an-hour fight... i'm just confused.

P.S. Oh, my bad! He means SECOND Razan fight!
Well... there you need:
1. Daytime.
2. One archer.
3. Fly spell, scroll or potion. Takes like 10 mins total or so...
With two archers and two fly spells it takes like 5 mins and so on.
