FIGHT OVERVIEW
  • 3 phases fight with 2 intermissions. It unfolds as follows: P1 -> Intermission 1 -> P2 -> Intermission 2 -> P3

  • P1, P2 and P3 are pretty similar: You fight the boss alone and deal with similar abilities. Intermission 1 and 2 are also pretty similar: The boss is immune and you fight adds.

  • P1 lasts until the boss has fallen to 65% HP.

  • Then Intermission 1 begins. It lasts about 2 minutes.

  • Then P2 starts. The phase ends when the vault's integrity drops to 0 or the boss' HP is under 25%, whichever happens first.

  • Intermission 2 lasts until you've killed its add.

  • Finally P3, the last phase. Burn the boss before the platform is filled with AOEs.

HEROIC CHANGES
PHASE
1

P1 lasts until the boss reaches 65% HP. The big danger is getting pushed off the platform.

EVERYONE

DROP YOUR BOMB OUT

OF THE RAID AT

ASSIGNED SPOTS

SHARE LINK
Static Charge
8s Bomb

Several players get a bomb debuff that explodes after 8s. The explosion deals huge damage to the raid, reduced by the distance between players and the explosion.


Each explosion drops a zone on the ground that reduces movement speed and is mandatory to survive the boss' pushback.

EVERYONE

RESIST THE PUSHBACK 

BY USING THE SNARE

ZONES FROM THE BOMBS.

Hurricane Wing
6s cast into 3s channel

At 100% energy, boss starts a 3s pushback channel that damages the raid. 


You need to use the zones left by the Static Charge bombs to resist it or you'll be thrown off the platform.

EVERYONE

SPREAD AND INTERRUPT

OR PURGE TWICE THE

ADD TO KILL IT.

HEROIC CHANGES
SHARE LINK
Volatile Current
3s Cast

Heroic Changes: The add spawns with two charges. When you remove one, it dies and spawns a new add with one charge. Deal with the adds and you're good.


Every player gets a bomb, inflicting damage to the player and those nearby.


All players spawn 1 invulnerable add with 2 Volatile charge. Interrupting (stun, kick, fear, incapacitate, etc.) or purging the add removes a charge. At 0 charge, it dies.


If the add finishes its 3.5s Burst cast, it inflicts a heavy stacking DoT to the whole raid and dies.

REACH LOWER PLATFORMS.

Storm Nova
5s Cast

Entering intermission, Raszageth casts a knockback. It allows you to reach the lower platforms for the intermission.


Split your raid in half and send a balanced group on each of the two lower platforms (left and right, not center).


Calculate the knock properly. You can get knocked off the platforms.

EVERYONE

BREAK THE SHIELDS FROM

THE ADDS AND QUICKLY

TAKE THEM DOWN.

This add spawns with a shield that deals damage to the raid.


When the shield is broken, 7 additional minions spawn and the add gains an aura increasing the damage of all adds by 100%.

PHASE

A phase similar to P1. We believe it ends after one or several casts of Stormsurge, dropping the Vault's integrity to 0%.

EVERYONE

STAY CLOSE TO PLAYERS

WITH YOUR POLARITY AND 

BREAK THE ABSORB SHIELD.

HEROIC CHANGES
SHARE LINK
Stormsurge
100% Energy Ultimate

Heroic Changes: Touching a player with a different polarity now triggers an AoE. Pre-spread or you might take a heavy amount of damage.


At 100 Energy, the boss gains a shield that must be broken. While active, each player gains a polarity (+ and -). Being close to a player from the same polarity gives you a 200% amplifier buff, being close to the opposite one inflicts a DoT.


If the absorb shield isn't broken after 25s, it explodes and inflicts a nasty 90s DoT to the raid.

EVERYONE

QUICKLY MOVE THROUGH

THE WAVE TO

LIMIT ITS DAMAGE.

3s Cast

The boss hits the floor with her wings, dealing damage to the raid and releasing an expanding ring in the room that pushes back and inflicts damage.

Fulminating Charge
Bomb Mechanic

Several players get a bomb that slows them. After 4s the bomb explodes and leaves behind a DoT.


If the explosion hits other players, the bomb will jump to the nearest player hit. After each jump, the explosion's radius gets smaller, so it's easier to prevent further jumps.

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.

2
General Vault 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).
