FIGHT OVERVIEW
  • This fight alternates between 2 phases, a P1 and an intermission.

  • In P1, you fight Rashok and deal with his abilities while he gains energy. At 100 he enrages and kills the raid.

  • Drag Rashok to the middle of the room just BEFORE he enrages. It starts an intermission which drains his energy back to 0. On Normal, you can do this 3 times.

  • In P1, Rashok regularly jumps on a player, leaving a permanent lava pool that shoots waves. DO NOT STACK LAVA POOLS. The room will get cramped.

  • During intermissions, Rashok does nothing while being drained and the raid takes massive damage. Then P1 starts again.

General Aberrus By Causese

A general WeakAura pack that provides "icon" style mechanics/debuff as well as short descriptions for each. Pretty standard. We also recommend downloading Causese Sound addon to hear vocal announcements. Feel free to thank the amazing Causese here (sorry, no Twitter that I know of...).

2
Co Tank Weakaura By Causese

Another must have by Causese if you play or are planning to play tank. It informs you when to taunt and how your co-tank is doing with their mechanics.


Make sure to checkout the Causese Sound addon to also pair it with appropriate sound announcements.
