Gul'Thak is the boss of the elite stage Ruins of Acaroth.
Overview[]
The most feared Orc chieftain. His battle prowess is only matched by his incredibly boring campfire stories.
Gul'Thak is a dark green goblinoid creature with a white beard and white hair pulled back with a red scrunchie, a brown thong, and a staff similar to a shaman's. He rides an enormous boar. He can use his staff to heal 200 HP to his allies and the boar in battle every 8 seconds. When Gul'Thak dies, he's flung off his mount and crushed.
Strategy[]
- Gul'Thak arrives from the right entrance, so the player should focus their towers accordingly. One should also note, however, that there are many Forest Trolls coming from the upper entrance during the last wave as well, and they still have to be defeated even after Gul'Thak is killed.
- Block him with high-leveled Paladins and Elementals, or strong melee heroes with heavy armor. Gerald Lightseeker is the best to defeat Gul'Thak, because he can reflect boss' attacks to the source, dealing hundreds of damage and taking no damage himself. If he is Level 10, he can kill Gul'Thak by himself if retreated when low on health and then sent against Gul'Thak again.
- Use Teleport to set back other, lesser enemies, making Gul'Thak the only target of your towers.
- Use Tesla Towers and Big Berthas to damage him, as the area damage caused by the towers will clear out the many troops that accompany him on the path.
- Musketeers upgraded with Shrapnel Shot can also make quick work of Gul'Thak, due to Shrapnel Shot's high damage and fast reload time.
Trivia[]
- His name is a reference to Gul'dan, orc shaman and warboss from World of Warcraft.
- Gul'Thak's boar might be a reference to the symbol of war, a boar's head.
