FIGHT OVERVIEW

  • Single phase encounter with 2 different dimensions: one with the boss "upstairs" and one with adds "downstairs."

  • The boss is static in a pool of blood with platforms that surround him. Don't go swimming.

  • The boss summons adds downstairs that can only be killed by players downstairs. Set up 2 groups to alternate going downstairs.

  • One half of the raid gets hit by the boss' breath which sends them downstairs. Kill the adds.

  • You can't interact with players in the other dimension, but you can always see and attack the boss.

Phase 1

Split your raid in 2. One half gets hit by the boss' breath to be sent "downstairs" to kill adds.

You have 40s to kill the adds before getting sent back up. If you don't kill them all, the raid will die.

Don't swim in the blood, but do get away from the boss when it does its massive explosion at 100 Energy.
