Beast of Winter - Final Boss fight

[Repskillian]

This entire DLC is a massive difficulty spike, but the final boss is on an entirely different level. What is the strategy here? Also how do you use the 4 characters that you recruit before the fight? I know you're supposed to interrupt is health siphon and he has an invulnerability spell, but how? What are the best abilities for this?

The recruitable characters you simply run to their section of the map and they use an ability, then it has a cooldown before you can use it again.

I just interrupted her every time she's about to siphon using one of the dozens interrupt abilities. Pretty much any rogue ability, wizard tattered vale ability, etc.

Also don't want to spoil it, but that's not the final boss of the dlc lol

I only did Beast, since I was already near the level cap. S^3 doesn't interest me at all, but Forgotten Sanctuary looks interesting.
Psychotron is right, but the last fight is anticlimactic in comparison.
Sap, tanked up melee, bombs, anything to stop that contingency spell.
