Strategy Guide

FIGHT OVERVIEW
  • Technically, this boss has 2 alternating phases, but the 2nd one is only a very small burst window.

  • We can treat this as if it were only one phase.

  • Kite and cleave down the adds that spawn from the flames.

  • When Magmaw crashes on the ground, have severals players hooking him to the ground to start the burst windows phase.
