Algalon the Observer is a hard mode-only encounter in Ulduar, released in patch 3.1. Algalon was sent by the Titans after watcher Loken's death activated a planetary fail-safe protection, indicating possible distress on Azeroth. Algalon's task is to analyze any systemic corruption on the planet. If deemed beyond saving, the Titans will "re-originate" the planet to cleanse it of corruption, killing all currently living organisms in the process.
He can only be accessed if least one member of a raid has obtained the Celestial Planetarium Key. Players have a one hour window to defeat him per lockout period, starting upon first initiation of the encounter. Blizzard has sardonically referred to him as "Algalon the Raid Destroyer."
The quest from the disc directs the player to the Archivum, located beyond the Assembly of Iron.
After listening to the Archivum Console speak, Prospector Loren offers The Celestial Planetarium, asking the player to locate the Celestial Planetarium and return to Prospector Loren. Completion enables four quests to obtain the watchers' sigils, which may be performed in any order:
Cosmic Smash - Calls an abyssal boulder from the sky, dealing 35613 to 41387 Fire damage.
Black Hole Explosion - 14725 to 16275 Shadow damage inflicted to enemies. Instant
Quantum Strike - Strikes at an enemy, inflicting 15675 to 17325 Physical damage. 5 yd range.
Phase Punch - Massive blow that inflicts 8788 to 10212 damage and slowly fades the target to another plane of existence. 5 yd range.
Big Bang - Inflicts 76313 to 88687 Physical damage to nearby enemies. 8 sec cast, 3 sec cooldown.

25 Man Strategy
The way this encounter has to go is, you require a lot of raid heals preferably 5 (five) Restoration Druids and 2 Holy Paladins. The Paladins are for the MT. Get all caster dps or a majority of casters for this fight. It is vital to keep all rolling HoTs on the MT at all times at 35% Algalon has a mini enrage, it helps to have a Shaman at this fight. In this mini enrage, you straight burn and focus all heals on the MT. If the MT goes down, it is vital that you wipe it and try again due to the time limit.
