As a boss type enemy, Cernunnon is immune to all crowd control effects.

Coldfire Blast
A basic ranged attack that deals minor frost damage.
Clash of Bones
A charged heavy melee attack that deals very high physical damage and knocking the target back. This must be blocked by the tank or dodged if you are not the tank.
Aspect of Winter
The boss summons meteors that will land on top of all players dealing high frost damage around them. When the rune appears around you, move away from your group members and hold block. Avoid stacking on top of each other during this attack as the damage from multiple meteors can be overwhelming.
Brush with Death
The boss summons wraiths that will roam the arena, touching one will deal moderate frost damage and fear you momentarily. This will also summon some Ravenous Revenants to attack the group.
Pull of the Underworld
When you enter the arena, you'll see a message declaring that the Void tugs at your soul. You will notice a barrier of swirling soul energy around the area. If you stand outside the designated area, you'll take high magical damage over time. To avoid this, stand in the eye of of the soulstorm when this happens.
Summon Minions

Dialogue[edit]

When summoned:

Cernunnon: "Your flames will flicker and die."
Cernunnon: "Our compact is eternal."
Cernunnon: "I will claim you myself."
Cernunnon: "I will keep your bones as a trophy."

Group wipe:

Cernunnon: "Don't keep your ancestors waiting."
Cernunnon: "Welcome, slaves eternal."

Upon his defeat, he invades the Hall of the Dead.

Cernunnon: "The living serve, but the dead obey. You will find no sanctuary in these halls!"

Numerous wraiths emerge from the ground and enter the hall.

In the Hall of the Dead, he will raise Deathlord Bjarfrud Skjoralmor.

Cernunnon: "Wake, little Jarl. See how your kingdom burns? Reap your vengeance."
Deathlord Bjarfrud Skjoralmor: "Usurpers …? In my hall! Let them come!"
