    • After the group defeats the First boss the Bottom group will go into the left gate, and the Top group will go into the door on the right.

Bottom Boss - Yokeda Rok'dun

  • Grab Welwa and Stack them on the Boss so that he does not run away from your dps to rez them

Healers:

  • Avoid standing behind the Welwa's as they will do a reverse-cone damage ability

DPS:

Mechanics:

    • The Boss will split into four copies. Ignore the images and focus on the Real Boss (it will have a health bar).

  • Fire Attack

    • The boss and his add will occasionally channel a fire ability that needs to be interrupted.

  • Meteor

    • At any point a meteor may rain down on someone. The safe thing to do is block, but fee free to try to roll dodge.

    • The boss will occasionally release an explosion that will kill you if you do not get out. IT IS A ONE SHOT!

Final Boss - The Warrior

Tanks:

  • Main Tank

    • Hold boss just outside the blue circle so the boss is outside of it while your DPS are inside of it

    • HM: position the boss such that he faces 2 statuses at a time. When he throws his shield this will break the statues. Break as many as possible.

  • Off Tank

    • Round up adds and maneuver them into the cleave damage on the boss

    • HM: Stack gargoyles that are left on the boss

Healers:

  • Be careful not to stand separate from the group or the boss will jump on you

  • HM: If you are fossilized wait for the boss to free you with his shield or until your team moves a safe distance away from you before you synergize!

DPS:

  • This is not a DPS race, There is no enrage. So focus first on staying alive and out of the red.

  • HM: If you are fossilized wait for the boss to free you with his shield or until your team moves a save distance away from you before you synergize!


Mechanics:

  • Circles

    • There are two circles on the ground in this room.

      • The yellow circle will provide your group with increase health recovery, but you should use the Blue Circle.

      • The blue circle will provide the group with a damage buff.

    • At 70% the boss will remove the circle

  • Shield Attack

    • The boss will throw his shield and it will boomerang back. Be sure to get out of the way when you see the forecast on the ground

  • Leap Attack

    • If a member of the group stands too far away the boss will leap onto them. If this happens be sure to get out of the aoe forecast on the ground or you will die. Avoid this by staying close enough to the boss.

  • 35% Execute Phase

    • Boss will explode at 35% removing all remaining adds. Spread out and block

  • Shehai Storm

    • The boss will raise his sword in the air and doe AOE damage to the room for 5 seconds. The group must spread out and heal/block/shield

  • Cleave

    • Immediately after the Storm the boss will always do a 360 degree damage attack. Be sure to back away from the boss after the storm every time, to avoid this cleave attack.

  • Frontal Line Attack

    • The boss will slame his sword into the ground and blast a line of damage toward the group. Be sure to get out of the way

  • HARDMODE

    • To Activate Hardmode destroy the statues before the boss room.

    • Gargoyle statues in the room will come to life throughout the fight if you don’t use the boss to break them by having him Jump onto them or throw his shield through them.

    • Fossilize – the boss will randomly fossilize players. It is VERY IMPORTANT they do not use the synergy to free themselves. It will kill everyone nearby. When someone is fossilized you have two options

      • Have boss throw his shield to free them.

      • Everyone move away from that person and then let them synergize to break free
