Background Story Though she once served as Odyn´s right hand, the vengeful Helya will stop at nothing to ensure her ancient curse binds the titan keeper to the Halls of Valor. No longer satisfied with ruling her shadowy realm, Helya now commands her vast kvaldir army to plague the lands of the living. Overview The platform is divided in one main in the middle and 2 smaller ones on left and right side of stairs. The fight is divided in 3 phases Phase 1: Boss has 5 abilities. Phase 2: Boss swims away but does some abilities. Main event is the adds that spawns and tentacles that needs to destroyed to get the boss back again. Phase 3: Is a combination between phase 1 and phase 2 abilities/events. Phase 1 – Low Tide Helya has 5 abilities in this phase Positioning Phase 1Tanks Stand on each side of boss opposite from each other. Melee Stand spread on the center of boss. Ranged Stand spread on the center further back from boss.
Orb of Corruption Boss targets several players and shoots an Orb at them This Orb fixates that player and does pulsating dmg while moving. Taking dmg from an Orb gives a stacking debuff that increases dmg taken from orbs by 100%. Tactic: Orb of Corruption Move away from the Orbs, away from raid. Beware of the Breath boss does on tank direction so you don’t get hit.
Bilewater Breath Boss does a breath on main tank location in a frontal cone that does very high dmg. The breath does 2 things:
Applies a debuff on tank (anyone getting hit) by breath. This debuff decrease armor by 100% for 30 sec.
Several slimes (Bilewater Slimes) will land on the breath location. Each slime does dmg within 5y when they land on the ground. Each slime will burst after 20 seconds and do deadly dmg to ALL players. The health left of a slime reduces the dmg a slime does when bursting. After bursting, each slime leaves a pool (pool size also depends on health left). The pool does moderate dmg every second for 45 s, if a player stands on it.
Tactic: Bile Water Breath Tanks One tank on each side of boss. The breath will hit the left or right side of the platform depending on who is tanking. Tank swap after each breath. Use def CD at breath. DPS Every single dps needs to focus on the slime and kill them asap. Healers Get ready to heal up players after slimes burst if not all are killed. Some player/s will maybe touch the pool afterwards and needs a lot of healing. Raid Move away from the pools on the ground after slimes burst.
Tentacle Strike A big Tentacles spawns either in front of the boss or on the opposite side of platform. The tentacle slams the ground doing deadly dmg but is shared amongst players. If no one takes the slam, the slam will send a shockwave that does deadly dmg to all players. Tactic: Tentacle Strike Melee Stack in front of tentacles when they spawn near boss.
