FIGHT OVERVIEW
  • Two phase fight. In P1 you fight Diurna and deal with regular waves of multiple different adds that spawn in groups.

  • In P1, split your raid in 2. One group deals with the boss and destroys the eggs. One group deals with the regular waves of adds. Keep the boss and the adds far away from each other.

  • In P1, constantly move Diurna near new eggs and use the beams of her staff to destroy them. When all eggs have been destroyed, or after 5 minutes, P2 starts.

  • In P2, adds stop spawning. There's only Diurna left and she deals increasing damage. Diurna cannot die until all eggs have been destroyed.

MYTHIC CHANGES
  • Wildfire now also launches small projectiles around the point of impact. Dodge those as well.

  • Diurna regularly fills ALL the trajectories of all the beams used to destroy eggs with lethal lighthning. Don't stand in it.

  • Hatched eggs by Rapid Incubation now spawns one add from the regular waves instead of a baby dragon that does nothing. The color of the egg determines which add it is. Don't let them hatch, or it's a wipe.

  • Every 7s spent in Diurna's range, your damage vulnerability increases by 1%. The group that stays on Diurna for the whole of P1 will take more and more damages during P1.

  • P2: The boss now applies a bomb on the tank that needs to be soaked when it expires. With the recent nerfs, tanks can solo soak them with an external defensive CD.

PHASE
1

Groups of adds constantly spawn and need to be killed. Keep them 50yd away from Diurna and split your raid in 2 groups. One group deals with the boss while the other deals with adds.


Use the staff from the boss to destroy the eggs in the room. When all eggs have been destroyed, or after 5 minutes, P2 starts.

Rapid Incubation
2s Cast

Regularly, the 2 eggs closest to the boss are marked and will hatch, spawning an add, after 15s if not destroyed.


On Mythic it spawns one of the adds from the regular waves, the one corresponding to the "type" of the egg. If one egg hatches, it's a wipe, the add will be buffed and kill you all.

Greatstaff's Wrath
Extra Action Button

After each Rapid Incubation, Diurna plants her staff into the ground and gains 3 stacks of a 10% damage done buff.


Players can use an extra action button when next to the staff on the ground. Using the button will cause a beam to follow that player, dealing damage to anyone hit and destroying any eggs in its path. 1 stack is removed on the boss per use.


When an egg is destroyed, the boss deals a burst of raid damage and inflicts 275% more damage on the same burst for 10s. Don't destroy more than 3 eggs at a time.
