FIGHT OVERVIEW
  • Single phase encounter with lots of adds to kill. The room is divided into 3 sections.

  • Each section is filled with the same 3 types of eggs. Each section also has a canister of blood at its edge.

  • Big eggs spawn a large spider, medium eggs a worm, and small eggs spawn small parasites. Each section features one type of egg more predominantly.

  • The boss opens the closest canister, slowly filling its section with blood. If blood touches an egg, the raid probably dies.

  • Manually hatch the eggs by hitting them with the boss' ability before the blood reaches them.

  • If any add sets foot in blood, it mutates and becomes more dangerous.

  • Once a section has been filled with blood, the boss opens a new canister and the fight repeats itself.

Heroic Changes
Phase 1

The boss starts the fight by opening the closest canister. Decide the order of sections beforehand.


Always break the eggs closest to the blood; don't let it reach an egg.


Spiders need to be tanked, worms need to be interrupted, and parasites need to be killed before they reach players.

EVERYONE

Ingest Black Blood
Raid Damage

At the start of the fight, and again when it reaches 100 Energy, Ovi'nax opens the nearest canister. Choose a section to start in before pulling the boss.


The opening deals heavy raid-wide damage, applies a big healing absorption, and launches projectiles around the room. Ovi'nax then gains Unstable Infusion.


Once the canister is open, it slowly fills its section with blood. Do not let the blood reach any egg; this deals massive raid-wide damage.


Don't let adds stand in the blood; it mutates them and makes them dangerous. The boss can stand in blood.

IF TARGETED, GO TO THE EGGS

CLOSEST TO THE BLOOD

AND BREAK THEM.
