grr... really wish i could just link over to eqnecro >_<

few methods...

make sure you never pull aggro off your pet, burn him down, all while FDing alot.

let him play ping pong with you, in this case i believe you have to clear out the banish point on the way to him but i could be wrong.

aggro him, let him banish you. let him come to you at the banish point. (don't dmg him enough to start summoning)

Never done it, so i cann't offer details, but getting your pois resist up is important, and having a good chunk of hps to do it is obviously important.

Other than these general bits of advise, play with it and figure it out :)

Trakk's melee output is pretty low from my understanding. Just go give it a shot knowing you will most likly die the first time. There is so much to be learned by attempting it that first (or 4th time) time. Trak was origionally "publicly" soloed by a druid, that should give you an idea of how easy it really is.

He has 32K hps i do believe, just remember you have to do 32k damage to him before you run out of either mana, or hps. A combo of letting your pet take hits while your dots run a bit, and you taking those hits will most likly be needed if you don't have the gear to straight up tap tank him.

*IF* you don't have the gear to resist the AE, I'm not sure you have what you need to do it though.

There are two methods of killing Trakanon with ease. You can kill him at his banish point (my fav) or can use your pet for banish fodder (chaining your rune and pet heal, after he banishes your pet you step in and tap-tank. He banishes about every 30-45secs tho I forget the exact timer now. Pets CANNOT be banished).
What I do is clear the banish point room and the wanderers that come into that room. Then aggro Trakanon and wait for him to banish me (not damaging him yet). Once he banishes me, I sit down and wait patiently for the first Juggs to make it to me. When they make it to me, I fd and wait for the all clear message. When I stand after that, Trakanon is just outside the room, looking for a playmate. So while my feet need a good rubdown hes not that kinda freak, hes likes it rough. So I bring him into my room for a lil one on one.
Tips for the fight: You need high resists to even have a dream at a win first of all. If you don't resist his AE every time, don't think of trying him at all. His poison AE is simply brutal. Fear not, like 300 buffed PR is enough with level 70. Second, his lifetap. Been a while but its pretty sizable, like 850 or 1200? Spellshielding and MR resist will help you mitigate this damage or outright resist it.
Hes completely resistant to PR (duh) and somewhat to magic (soulspike will do some partials and outright resists from time to time). So load those fire dots and keep them on him, as well as fang of death. Don't bother with Dark Nightmare/Horror. Now just burn him down with your pet in back. With any luck, he'll cast a little bit on ya. If you do it right, you can burn him down without losing 30mana. Hes just totally gimp. LIFEBURN when hes low on life as he runs away.
Here is a really old screenshot, sorry I don't have any anymore that show where on the map the banish point is, or the path you take back to the banish point.
