Only way to slow him further would be specc into screaming eagle throwing skill (20% extra skill slow).
It is doable with just slows target but will take you like 2 hours. Fun boss mechanics.
I ended up doing it with zero slow target on my bowazon. Basically, once you initiate phase two (30% hp), you have to corner him in northern part of map and rotate back and forth like a pendulum, making sure he doesn’t escape to one of the other corners. Once you get that rhythm down (dodging instagibs and killing Edyrem implied), you have to repeatedly scare him into the trajectory of your purify.
Basically, when you’ve rotated to the north right wall to prevent him from fleeing SE, he will be drawn to move SW instead. Cast purify at the corner of the room then rotate as to cut him off and he will run right into the corner before your purify missile hits. Takes some practice but it is a consistent and easy process once you get the hang of it.
