Dimensius the All-Devouring
Strategy Guide
Fight in 3 phases with a skyriding intermission between P1 and P2.
Raid takes a portal to Dimensius' platform to start the fight. Kill the summoned adds and pick up their Excess Mass.
When players with Excess Mass stack up, it creates a zone that allows you to survive being devoured.
When Dimensius drops to 0% health, he teleports the raid into space. Get on your flying mount and chase after him.
In space, there are 2 platforms, each with a mini boss. Land on the first one and kill it, then fly to the 2nd platform and kill the other.
When the 2nd mini boss is dead, P3 starts on a new platform and you fight Dimensius alone.
Dimensius summons 8 orbiting stars at the start of the phase. At 100 Energy, he tries to Devour the raid again. Hide in a star to survive.
Dimensius destroys stars after each Devour cast. Kill him before the third Devour cast.
In P1, when the boss casts Dark Matter, and all players drop a permanent pool on the ground.
Raid needs to be pre-positioned to drop pools on the edges or near previous pools to save space.
In P2, there's 2 additional adds on both platforms that slow players and deal increasing damage to the raid. CC or kill them and kill the mini boss.
In P2, the beam and the nova from the mini bosses leave permanent lines/pools on the ground, further limiting space to play.
In P3, when Dimensius hits the tank with Cosmic Collapse, all players are pulled 20 yds toward the tank.
If you get pulled into the boss or a black hole, you die. If you get pulled too close to the tank you die.
Raid takes a portal to get to Dimensius' platform. The fight starts as soon as someone lands.
Dimensius is gigantic, immobile, and looms over the platform.
At 100 Energy, he casts Devour and drags the raid toward him.
Kill the adds he summons, pick up their Excess Mass, and stack up together to survive.
NEVER stand near the tanks.
Players with Excess Mass stand below players who are sent flying. This drags them back down before Dimensius eats them.
EVERYONE
Stay away from tanks. Tank swap after each.
Don't get knocked off the platform.
Massive Physical and Magic attack on the tank that also hits anyone within 20 yds. Leaves a 100% Physical damage taken vulnerability for 50s on the tank. Tank swap after each.
It also deals damage to the raid and knocks it back.
It also summons adds on both ends of the platform.
2 ADDS ARE ALREADY PRESENT AT THE START OF THE FIGHT.
EVERYONE
Divide raid in 2 to kill adds on both sides of the platform.
Loot them to get Excess mass on as many players as possible.
Massive Smash summons living mass adds on both sides of the platform. They can't be moved!
Divide your raid in half to kill them quickly.
2 LIVING MASS ADDS ARE PRESENT AT THE START OF THE FIGHT.
They deal constant raid-wide damage until killed. Kill them quickly.
Players can loot one add each to gain Excess Mass. This buff is essential to survive the boss' abilities.
EVERYONE
Raid stacks up with players with Excess Mass.
Stand in the gravity circle to not get devoured.
The circle needs more stacks than the boss has to survive.
At the start of the fight and then at 100 Energy, Dimensius channels for 5s, dealing heavy raid damage. When it finishes, he devours the raid.
Players with Excess Mass must stack together to create a circle of Collective Gravity. Each player with Excess Mass adds 1 stack to the circle.
The whole raid stacks in the center of the platform the first time. Then make 1 group on the right and 1 on the left for the following ones.
Players inside a circle with more stacks than Dimensius’s Growing Hunger stacks survive.
Devour absorbs all Living Mass adds and Excess Mass and grants Dimensius stacks of Growing Hunger for each mass absorbed.
EVERYONE
Players with Excess Mass stand below
floating players to bring them down
before they get too close to the boss.
Dimensius sends random players without mass into the air. They slowly float toward him. If they reach him he devours them.
Targeted players spread from the raid at the back of the platform.
Players with Excess Mass need to stand below those players to slowly bring them down.
If Dimensius casts this on players already airborne, he devours them instantly.
EVERYONE
Raid stands near both orbs to drain them
before they explode. Dodge the projectiles.
Dimensius spawns 2 giant spheres on both ends of the platform, killing anyone hit. After 10s, they explode and kill the raid.
Divide the raid in 2. Each half stands into the sphere to drain it, reducing their size and the strength of the explosion.
The spheres also shoot projectiles that deal heavy damage and stun anyone hit.
EVERYONE
Spread tightly around the edges of the platform
or near previous pools to save space.
All players are marked by a circle and then explode, dealing damage to anyone hit.

safe side and dodge at the right time.

EVERYONE
