High Priest Nkosi Bakari
If the restless wraith is up, the High Priest event is spawnable.
The tunnels in which the High Priest resides are behind a locked door, which may only be opened with a Polished Stone Key from the Ixt Hsek Syat encounter.
The High Priest is spawned by killing the five Vrex Invokers located throughout the caves: Akello, Jahzara, Kashka, Malik, and Raziya. Each Invoker spawns a not-yet-attackable Shade of a Vrex Invoker. After the fifth shade reaches the High Priest's spawnpoint, Nkosi Bakari will spawn. Upon spawning:
High Priest Nkosi Bakari says, 'My brothers and sisters, I have heard your calls and I have come. If what you say is true, our children have turned their backs upon Trushar and in doing so have invited evil upon our land. We must cleanse this place and restore belief to our people!'
Upon aggroing the event, the five shades will each cast an unresistable 3-minute charm on their targets. The shades will need to be offtanked.
Each time the High Priest reaches 50% health, you will see:
Shade of a Vrex Invoker says 'High Priest, may my everlasting soul provide you with the strength to cleanse this temple!'
Shade of a Vrex Invoker dissolves into tendrils of ghostly vapor that reach out and replenish the strength of High Priest Nkosi Bakari.
...And one of the shades will be absorbed into the High Priest, bringing Nkosi back up to 100%. This process repeats itself until all shades are down. Then the High Priest can be killed.
High Priest Nkosi Bakari has no special attacks besides his AE (no flurry; no rampage). He does sometimes enrage, however.

It took about 1 hour, 30 minutes to clear, spawn the event and kill the High Priest. I set the mercenary to Efficient for a long haul fight. She ended up around 30% mana near the end.
The charm is NOT irresistible, because I resisted all 5 cast. The Shades cast it and they only cast it once.
I did use a cleric merc just as a backup, but I could've gone without it. Used Journeyman stick to tash him and Willsapper to stick slow on him.
Fun fight.

Get it cured, spell slow and DoT, RGC cures it.
Pretty accurate, 5 shades, so we add 250% to his hps, so ya gotta kill 350% out of him. endurance fight, solid CH rot, solid tank, fast cures on clr and such, easy fight, just did it 39 peeps.

Just get a good main tank, and a sold CH rot on him. Every time the HP gets to 50 percent health, one of the shades near him heals him back up to 100 percent, and then dies. So just rinse and repeat, until all of the shades are gone, and then burn him down.
