Greetings comrades and welcome back to another season of the bio BRB series, we break down bosses before the raid lead can take notice.
All of these videos are aimed at the three minute Mark and under and today we seek sneaky Glory against Eranog the first boss of the Vault of the incarnates, first raid of dragonflight.
It's a two-phase fight with light cleave and it's mainly a mechanics and positioning check so let's kill it!
Phase One
Positioning keep the boss on this circle line and rotate around the room staying just in front of the lava pools dropped by The Raid mechanics, boss applies stacking debuff to tank applying fire damage over time.
Swap around six or seven Stacks or when your debuff falls off don't swap too late as by the time it starts hurting it will continue to hurt the same amount every second for the next 14 seconds.
Also targets tank with a large cone direct away from the raid, the boss Roars every 25 seconds roughly applying a stacking fire damage debuff and ensures the healers aren't sleeping these Stacks continue to build and will fall off.
Phase Two
In phase two Eranog will Target a handful of players and mark them with a debuff dealing damage and dropping a pool of lava on exploration which also spawns and for each pool.
Now interestingly enough standing in the lava did not prove to be an effective strategy threads that spawn have no threat table and fixate on a random Target keep the group stacked to prevent ads from wandering around aimlessly just slow and cleave the ads down they don't hit too hard. At 100 energy the boss will transition into phase 2, running to the center and creating a ring of collapsing flame Elementals from the outside edge, touching the ring is a fatal but you can currently lock gate through it break the ring by killing an elemental Target the closest one that won't cross over lava.
Ideally you'll have plenty of room to work if you've been rotating and stacking the lava pools correctly, there can be a tough overlap where you have the fixate adds up during phase 2 but the ring Elementals always have priority.
The smaller ads can be slowed rooted or stunned to reduce their effectiveness, also note the boss does still take full damage in Phase 2 which I'm sure will lead to lots of climactic races whilst on the pool.
Blow everything, rinse, repeat, kill, seems easy enough, heroic difficulty this boss has seen a few changes since heroic testing exchanging heroic and Mythic mechanics back and forth currently in the dungeon Journal the boss will summon spikes that you must move away from when the boss Roars, the spikes shatter and swirls will expand in lines from each Spike if you are a hit then you will be launched into the air after taking moderate fire damage.
Also in heroic testing there is one of the collapsing Elementals in the ring that got a head start making it not the kill Target but that isn't supported current dungeon Journal.
Collapsing Elementals also used to get his shield when touching a lava pool but this doesn’t change our strategy or positioning, we'll just have to see when it hits live and that's all that you need to know to kill eranog in normal and her look difficulty now then onward comrades to Glory did we make it back in time before the raid lead noticed oh yeah sneaky Glory achieved until we see each other again, take time and take care!
