Blood Steward of Kirtonos
Level 61 elite · The Reliquary, the first hall past the entrance gate
Optional
Lone demon in the Reliquary who curses and stuns with poison; kill her for the Blood of Innocents that summons Kirtonos.
Watch for
Curse of ImpotenceRemove curse
Curse that lowers the magic damage its target deals for 2 min.
Curse of WeaknessRemove curse
Curse that lowers the physical damage its target deals.
Paralyzing PoisonCure poison
Poison on her next hit that stuns the target for 8 sec.
Group plan
Tank
Pull her clear of the Reliquary packs and hold her there. Paralyzing Poison stuns you for 8 sec, so make sure someone can cure poison.
Healer
Cure Paralyzing Poison on the tank first. Her curses lower the damage a player deals, not the damage taken, so clear them after the poison.
Damage
Kill her and loot Blood of Innocents; you need it to summon Kirtonos on the balcony. She is a demon, so a warlock can Banish her if a pack joins.
Each class
Druid · your class
Remove Curse clears both curses, and Abolish Poison (26) ends Paralyzing Poison on the tank. In Bear Form, Faerie Fire is free and builds threat in Forever.
Hunter · your class
Send your pet in after the tank and keep Mend Pet ready. Scorpid Sting lowers her hit chance by 2% in Forever, which eases the tank's load.
Mage · your class
Remove Lesser Curse clears Curse of Impotence from casters first, since it cuts their spell damage. She is a demon, so Polymorph won't hold her.
Paladin · your class
Cleanse (42) removes Paralyzing Poison from a stunned tank. Exorcism works on demons, so open with it once the tank has her.
Priest · your class
Power Word: Shield the tank so a Paralyzing Poison stun costs less health. Leave curses and poison to druids, mages, paladins or shamans.
Rogue · your class
Her spells are instant, so there is nothing to Kick; spend Energy on damage. Feint if she turns to you; Forever doubled its threat cut.
Shaman · your class
Drop Poison Cleansing Totem (22) by the tank to clear Paralyzing Poison. Cure Poison works too if the totem is down.
Warlock · your class
She is a demon, so Banish (28) holds her if a Reliquary pack joins the pull. Curse of the Elements on her covers every school in Forever.
Warrior · your class
Hold her away from the Reliquary packs. Shield Block and Demoralizing Shout trim her hits; call for a poison cure when Paralyzing Poison stuns you.

2 sec cast that takes control of a player for 15 sec.

Swoop, Wing Flap, Pierce Armor and Disarm. The tank holds him at the top of the stairs, away from the window; everyone else stays at his sides or back.
Caster formAlternates through the fight
He casts Shadow Bolt Volley, Curse of Tongues and Dominate Mind. Remove the curse from healers and control any player he dominates.
Group plan
Tank
Have no one outside the gate when the blood goes in; the gate shuts. Tank him at the top of the stairs, away from the window; a knockback out of it zones you out.
Healer
Expect armor loss and Disarm on the tank in gargoyle form and Shadow Bolt Volley in caster form. Get Curse of Tongues removed from yourself first.
Damage
Stay out of the frontal cone for Swoop and Wing Flap. Interrupt Dominate Mind, and if it lands, Polymorph, root or stun the player instead of hitting them.
Each class
Druid · your class
Remove Curse clears Curse of Tongues from the healer. Entangling Roots works indoors in Forever: root a dominated player so they can't reach anyone.
Hunter · your class

Mage · your class
Remove Lesser Curse clears Curse of Tongues, healers first. Counterspell Dominate Mind, or Polymorph the player if it lands.

Warlock · your class
Your Felhunter's Spell Lock stops Dominate Mind's 2 sec cast. Shadow Ward (32) absorbs part of Shadow Bolt Volley.
Warrior · your class

Remove Lesser Curse clears Curse of Blood, tank first. After each split, put Frostbolt back on the real Jandice, not on the illusions.
Paladin · your class
She is undead, so Exorcism hits her hard once she shows again. Cleanse doesn't touch curses; leave Curse of Blood to mages and druids.
Priest · your class
Renew the tank before she splits so healing keeps going while you hunt her or sit banished. You can't remove Curse of Blood; ask a mage or druid.
Rogue · your class
Kick Curse of Blood; it has a 2 sec cast. After each split, get back behind the real Jandice and don't spend combo points on illusions.
Shaman · your class
You can't remove curses, so keep heals on the tank while Curse of Blood is up. Earth Shock interrupts Curse of Blood's 2 sec cast.
Warlock · your class
Keep Corruption and Bane of Agony on the real Jandice; Forever made Curse of Agony a Bane. Your Felhunter's Spell Lock stops Curse of Blood's 2 sec cast.

Darkreaver arrives. Keep only melee near him, since Blood Leech drains everyone close, interrupt his casts and control any player he dominates.
Group plan

Healer
Pace your mana; the waves come before the boss. On Darkreaver, stand back from Blood Leech and heal the tank and the melee it drains.
