Gnarlroot
Strategy Guide
This fight alternates between two phases: a P1 and an intermission.
In P1, adds spawn frequently. Kill them quickly, as they deal increasing damage.
When Gnarlroot gets to 100 energy, an intermission starts. He becomes immune and builds walls of roots.
Touch the roots to burn them. When all roots have been burned, the boss takes 100% more damage for 20s, then P1 starts again.
Adds no longer spawn automatically. Controlled Burn is now used to activate them.
During intermission, players need to soak projectiles on the ground to then be set on fire and burn the roots.
Gnarlroot summons two treants with each wave of adds. Treants force players to spread and they must be interrupted. Kill them.
Gnarlroot builds more roots during the intermission and missing soaks deals heavy raid damage.
Tank Gnarlroot near the edge of the room so adds spawn in a group.
Dodge the cone and explosions. Spread to drop your fire patch. Kill the adds as they spawn.
EVERYONE
DODGE
Regularly, Gnarlroot creates lines of explosions. They deal damage to players and spawn inactive Tainted Lashers.
They become active and attackable when players drop their Controlled Burn on them, or when they spawn in the burn patches.
EVERYONE
DROP YOUR CIRCLE ON
TOP OF SLEEPING ADDS
Regularly, Gnarlroot marks a few players with a circle. This deals damage to players inside, and after 6s, players drop a fire pool.
Drop pools on top of the sleeping lashers to activate them and make them killable. Pools remain until intermission.
Lashers deal raid-wide damage when activated. If you don't activate them in P1, they all spawn at the start of intermission and will kill you.
EVERYONE
SPREAD AWAY FROM PLAYERS
AND INTERRUPT THE TREANTS.
On mythic, Gnarlroot summons two additional treants when he spawns lashers.
Treants debuff several players, slowing them and dealing damage to players within 5 yds.
They also cast an interruptible ability that disorients nearby players. Interrupt them.
HEALERS
HEAL THROUGH
THE RAID DAMAGE
Regularly, Gnarlroot roars, dealing a burst of raid damage and applying a 10s DoT.

AND DESTROY THE ROOTS

He also activates any remaining sleeping lashers. If you haven't activated enough of them in P1, they could kill you.
Gnarlroot deals increasing raid damage until all roots are burned.
Once all roots are destroyed, Gnarlroot takes 100% increased damage and deals massive raid-wide damage for 20s.
After each intermission, Gnarlroot gains a 10% damage increase buff that stacks.
Passing through Gnarlroot will kill you.
