Background
In Kelp'thar Forest, players starting out in Vashj'ir are immediately shipwrecked by Ozumat.
Players reach Abyssal Depths via a new submarine, which is immediately used to attack Ozumat. Later during the nagas' battle against Neptulon, Lady Naz'jar unleashes Ozumat. Ozumat attaches itself to Neptulon's "head" leading to the victory of the naga. After the battle with Ozumat in the Throne of the Tides, Ozumat swims away with Neptulon.[1]
Dungeon Journal
Tales of the monstrous kraken that terrorize Azeroth's high seas were once relegated to myth... but no longer. By some ill means, the naga have bent Ozumat - the patriarch of all kraken - to their will and unleashed him against Neptulon and his followers.
Abilities
- In Phase 1, Multiple
Deep Murloc Invaders, 
Vicious Mindlashers, and 
Unyielding Behemoths appear.
- Murlocs are AoE'able trash mobs: low health, and low damage output, but appear in packs.
- Vicious Mindlashers are caster adds, casting a basic nuke, a healing reduction ability, and an AoE shadowbolt volley.
- Unyielding Behemoths are melee adds with frontal cone and point-blank AoE attacks.
- In Phase 2, three Faceless Sappers, and multiple
Blight Beasts appear.
- The Faceless Sappers simply channel a spell subduing Neptulon.
- Blight Beasts have a short-range damage aura.
Ozumat himself casts a single spell, though its area of effect varies depending on the phase:
Blight of Ozumat (Heroic mode) — (Phase 2) Spits out a stream of blight towards a random enemy, infecting a small area. Any enemy that touches this area is dealt 200 (800) Shadow damage per second for 6 sec. Stacks up to 200 times.- Blight of Ozumat — (Phase 3) Sprays the entire room full of blight, dealing 200 Shadow damage per second to all enemies. Stacks up to 200 times.
Tactics
The encounter consists of three phases. During phase 1, three different types of adds spawn, and must all be tanked and killed; the murloc packs are AoE'able, while the faceless adds require single-target damage. Interrupts on the casters are beneficial here. After a certain amount of adds have been killed, Phase 2 will begin.
In Phase 2, three faceless sappers appear and begin channeling a spell at Neptulon; DPS must kill those sappers. The tank must pick up and kite the Blight Beasts that spawn through this phase, taking care not to kite them through the other party members. Ozumat makes an appearance in this phase, spewing Blight of Ozumat at random party members, leaving a blighted area on the ground that people should move out of. The phase ends once all three faceless sappers have been killed; Neptulon purifies the waters, granting everyone a +health, +damage, and +regeneration buff. The Blight Beasts should be killed at this point.
Phase 3 is a DPS race: Ozumat must be driven off before Blight of Ozumat, now cast at the entire room, stacks to the point of being unhealable. This is generally the phase you wish to use DPS cooldowns on. Ozumat will capture Neptulon and retreat when his health has been reduced enough. A chest called Neptulon's Cache will be left behind, containing loot for the encounter.

Notes
- Despite antagonizing both the Horde and the Alliance, in addition to Neptulon, the Vrykul and the Earthen Ring forces, Ozumat may not be acting of his own accord - his will was apparently "bent" by the naga.
