Raz can use his magic and curse players that constantly reduce their HP. To avoid this, they must fight him from a distance. He also has a Mythic weapon called Raz’s Explosive Bow that deals 98 damage, and then further releases explosives.

The best way to beat Raz at the moment is a Harpoon Gun. Simply grab and release him from a considerable height, and the NPC will take a significant amount of fall damage and will get eliminated.
