FIGHT OVERVIEW

Thanks to Kats & Layria for her careful work as copy editor for the English texts.

Phase 1

You should assign landmarks, like a shaman's totem or marked players, for spore management. Missing some is deadly!


Range have to stay spread to avoid collateral stun and damage.


The more gas there is in the room, the more damage your players take.


The less gas there is, the more damage your tanks take.

RANGE

STAY SPREAD

Vile Gas
Disorient

1 player (3 in 25 man) is disoriented for 6s and takes damage every 2s. Anyone within 8 yards will also be affected. It can only target ranged players.


Your ranged players should be spread and have a fixed position.

EVERYONE

SOAK THE SPORES

Gas Spore
Debuff

Infects 2 players (3 in 25 man) with a spore. After 12s, the spore explodes dealing damage to nearby players.


The explosion leaves a debuff on players who got hit, increasing their resistance to Blight.


All players have to soak the spores to prevent getting one shot by Pungent Blight.


Make sure to assign positions of where to go when targeted by Gas Spore.


In 25 man raid the common strategy is to have 1 spore in melee and 2 groups in range, apart from each other.

Pungent Blight
3s Cast

After 3 Gaseous Blight inhalations, the next one becomes Pungent Blight, dealing heavy shadow damage to all players.


It restores Gaseous Blight to it's initial state. That means it deals higher damage to all players again.


If some players haven't soaked the gas spores, they will die from Pungent Blight's damage.

Gaseous Blight
Permanent Damage

The room is filled with gas. Every 2s it deals damage to the entire raid group.


Damage decreases when Festergut inhales the blight.

Gastric Bloat
Debuff

Festergut deals damage to his target and applies a stacking debuff. The debuff increases the damage dealt of the affected player by 10%.


When it reaches 10 stacks it will explode and deal massive AoE damage to all the players.


Swap aggro before reaching 10 stacks!

Inhale Blight
Boss Buff

The boss inhales partial Gaseous Blight in the room, decreasing the permanent damage on the raid but increasing his own damage and attack speed by 25%.


It takes 3 inhales to remove the gas completely. At this point, your raid won't take the permanent damage anymore, but your tanks will be hit very hard and fast!
