FIGHT OVERVIEW
  • Two phase fight. In P1 you fight 2 Elementals with different abilities. When one drops to 50% HP, they merge and P2 starts.

  • In P1, on Normal, tank the 2 Elementals together. Bring them both to 50% HP at the same time to shorten P2.

  • In Pi, if you're within 50yd of an Elemental, you gain stacks of its DoT. On Normal the raid will stack both DoTs but P2 should start before it becomes dangerous.

  • When either Elementals drops to 50% HP, they merge and P2 starts. The new Elemental combines their remaining HP and abilities.

MYTHIC CHANGES
  • In P1 and P2, the Fire and Shadow Elemental DoTs are permanent and are cleared by having players with different ones collide.

  • The collision causes a small explosion at its location and players get a new Mythic DoT proportionate to the number of stacks cleared.

  • Assign each player a partner with whom they will regularly clear their DoT away from others.

  • When P2 starts, all players have their Fire and Shadow DoTs cleared, triggering explosions and applying Mythic DoT(s). If you never cleared your DoT(s) during P1, this will kill you.

  • In P2, the boss regularly applies the P1 Fire DoT and Shadow DoT to several players. Clear them just like in P1.

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.
