Chrome King Gallywix
Strategy Guide
This fight has 3 phases with an intermission between phase 2 & 3.
Most of Gallywix's abilities are present in all 3 phases. They often have a slight twist in the next phase.
One of his main abilities present in P1, P2, and P3 is when he drops bombs to dodge in the room. Getting hit by a bomb applies stacking DoT.
In P2 and P3, the main mechanic of the fight is to destroy the Coils that are activated by the boss. They will quickly kill you if they remain active.
In P2 and P3, Technician adds drop Giga Bombs when dying which you need to sabotage and destroy the Coils in time.
Throw extra Giga Bombs in the hole in the middle of the arena with Fling, the extra action button, to get rid of them.
Each Coil can be sabotaged twice, which destroys them. This condemns a quarter of the room with lightning. Kill the boss before you run out of space.
The healing absorb debuff in all 3 phases needs to be healed faster. When it expires, it now deals damage to ALL players.
In P1, P2 and P3, there is now a new type of bomb that the tanks must disarm so they don't explode and kill the raid.
Giga Bombs dropped by the Darkfuse Technician take less time to explode.
Fully destroyed Coils shoot lightning bolts. Coils remain sabotaged for 20s instead of 1min.
Gallywix stands in the middle of the arena and doesn't move.
Divide raid into 2 groups to soak the cone on each tank.
The boss drops large piles of bombs that explode shortly after.
The explosions scatter many other bombs which then create different mechanics.
EVERYONE
DIVIDE RAID IN 2 ON EITHER
SIDE OF THE BOSS TO SOAK
THE MASSIVE CONE.
Gallywix deals heavy Physical damage to the tank in a cone attack. To split the damage, the cone must be soaked by at least 3 players.
Players hit by the cone also get a healing absorption debuff. If less than 3 players get hit, the whole raid gets debuffed.
The debuffs explode after 15s, dealing damage to ALL players based on the remaining shield.
Players hit by the cone become vulnerable to it for 30s. Divide raid in 2, each half soaks a cone in turn.
EVERYONE
DODGE THE AOE AND
PREPARE FOR MECHANICS.
The boss drops massive piles of bombs in the room that explode shortly after impact, dealing heavy damage to anyone hit.
The explosions scatter many smaller bombs in the room that have various mechanics.
Being hit by any bomb explosion also applies a stack of Blast Burns, a long stacking DoT.
EVERYONE
DODGE THE BOMBS
Many small bombs are scattered across the room and explode shortly after, dealing damage and applying a stack of Blast Burns to anyone hit.
EVERYONE
SPREAD OUT BEFORE
THE DETONATION.
Some bombs are attached to a few players who explode after 5s.
Players hit by these explosions take damage and receive the same bomb that also explodes after 5s.
Being hit also applies a stack of Blast Burns.
TANKS
CLICK ON BOMBS TO DISARM THEM
USE KNOCKBACK TO GET TO OTHER BOMB.
2/3 large bombs drop in the room that need to be interacted with or they explode after 15s, dealing massive damage to the raid.
A tank must click on the bombs to disarm them. Then only the tank takes a big hit of damage and a stacking DoT. When the DoT expires, the raid takes a small hit of damage.
Disarming the bomb knocks the tank back.
EVERYONE
DODGE THE SWIRLIES
Periodically, Gallywix launches a salvo of small swirlies.
They deal damage and applies a stacking dot to players within 2.5 yards.
Gallywix inflicts high damage to his target, increasing by up to 200% as the distance increases.
Gallywix stands still in the middle of the arena in P1.
The boss gains a stack of Trick Shots every 4s. When he reaches 10 stacks, or when he changes targets, he releases the stacks and inflicts damage based on the number of stacks.
Taunt the boss before he gets to 10 stacks.

Taunt the boss before he gets to 10 stacks.
When Gallywix reaches 100 Energy, P2 starts and activates one of the 4 Coils in the room.
Gallywix carries over most of his ability from P1 and summons different adds.
In P2, Gallywix still accumulates Energy. At 100 he activates another of the 4 Giga Coils around the room.
The main mechanic of the fight is to destroy these coils using the Giga Bombs dropped by adds. If a Coil is activated for too long, the raid will die.
You have more Giga Bombs than Coils to sabotage. Throw the extra ones in the hole in the middle of the arena using the extra action button.
EVERYONE
QUICKLY KILL TECHNICIANS
AND BE AWARE OF BOMBS.
THROW EXTRA BOMBS IN HOLE.
At the start of P2, Gallywix summons 8 Darkfuse Technicians. These adds are very important.
Dodge their spawning animation and kill them quickly.
When they die, they drop a Giga Bomb that can be picked up by a player. You can drop them using the extra action button.
Giga Bombs explode after 40s, or when hit by the massive beam of Gallywix, dealing heavy raid-wide damage.
These Giga Bombs are essential for the main ability of the fight.
You will have a lot more Giga Gombs than needed. Throw the extra ones in the hole in the middle of the arena using the extra action button.
EVERYONE
QUICKLY BRING BOMB TO ACTIVATED
COIL TO STOP DAMAGE. THROW EXTRA
BOMBS IN THE MIDDLE OF ARENA.
In P2 Gallywix gains Energy. When he gets to 100, he activates one of the 4 Coils around the room.
An activated Coil deals increasing raidwide damage every second, quickly becoming lethal.
Bring one of the Giga Bombs to the Coil to sabotage and stop it.
Once the first control panel has been destroyed by a Giga Bomb, the panels of the other Coils open.
When a Coil has been sabotaged twice, it breaks and condemns its quarter of the room with lightning for the rest of the fight. This should not happen before P3.
EVERYONE
DODGE BEAM, DONT LET IT HIT GIGA BOMBS.
QUICKLY BRING A GIGA-BOMB TO THE
CONTROL PANEL OF ACTIVATED COIL.
Shortly after activating a Coil, Gallywix casts a massive beam toward the raid that deals heavy damage to anyone hit.
He continues shooting beams until the Coil is sabotaged. Each successful cast increases the damage of the Coils by 40%, quickly making the damage lethal.
If a beam hits a Giga Bomb, it destroys it, dealing heavy raid damage. Pick up the bombs to protect them and throw them in the hole to get rid of them.

EVERYONE
SOAK EACH PLAYER WITH
