Bind/grav is not neccessary to solo him. the time he stops to cast is more then enough to get some distance between you and it. also, theres no way he can be casting on you, without it being in the log, unless it starts casting while you are 30+' away, which is too far for it to start casting. --rOg \ TaLk 01:44, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Maybe my log setup is messed up or something, but using Bind and Gravity is recommended since he hits fast without enfeeblings like Slow and Paralyze. Also his Double-Attack and sudden casts might kill you if you have to put shadows up all the time. I only say this because theres no reason to correct "Bind/grav" not neccessary. Alot of NMs can be soloed without bind and gravity, this is just recommendations which help you kill this NM faster and easyer.
