Strategy Guide

FIGHT OVERVIEW
  • The four Guardians (Amethyst, Cobalt, Jade, and Jasper) have shared health pools. A single Guardian will become empowered and gain their respective Petrification buff.


    If you are doing the normal strategy, we recommend you use three tanks (in 25 man). The first tank will take the empowered Guardian and one other to prevent Solid Stone on the main target. The second and third tank will each take one Guardian and split them up.


    If your group has a lot of DPS, consider tanking the Guardians together and pressing all healing/raid CDs for their synchronised Overload.


    In 10-man, only three are active, while in 25-man all four are active.


    This fight only has one phase.
