Dungeon Layout & Trash Strategy

The dungeon is strikingly linear, advancing through:

Hollowed Tree Entrance – defeat Vizier Jin’bak.
Assault Camp Ramparts – fight waves before Vo’jak.
Forward Assault Camp – face Pa’valak.
Temple Bridge – confront Ner’onok.

Tanks should pull trash in controlled groups.
Healers must anticipate area damage from sap, bombs, and acid pools.
DPS prioritize adds (Sap Globules, Amberwing, Swarmer) to reduce pressure.

Use slowdown items like Caustic Tar to manage ramp waves and spread during bomb mechanics.

Boss 1 – Vizier Jin’bak

Sap Puddle & Globules: Sap Globules accumulate in a central puddle; if uncontrolled, Jin’bak's Detonate causes heavy AoE damage.
Strategy: Quickly kill Sap Globules before they merge with the puddle. Tanks keep them off the puddle, and DPS pick them off from afar.
Tactics: Spread out to avoid overlapping damage when the boss casts Detonate or when puddles expand.

Boss 2 – Commander Vo’jak

Phase One (Add Waves): Waves of Mantid (Amberwing, Swarmer, Demolisher) ascend the ramp.
- Use Caustic Tar splash jars to slow them.
- Focus on Demolishers first to prevent explosion damage.
Phase Two (Vo’jak Arrival): He charges with Dashing Strike and outer cleaving Thousand Blades.
- Use tar jars again; spread out to avoid cleave.
- Tank dodge or mitigate strikes; keep explosive adds solidly controlled.
Achievement “Where’s My Air Support?”: Kill Amberwing before defeating Vo’jak.

Boss 3 – General Pa’valak

Blade Rush: Targets a location—tank bait and move accordingly.
Adds: Sappers create bombs you can pick up and throw back—kill Sappers to alleviate explosion pressure.
Bulwark Shield Phases (65% & 35% HP): Pa’valak shields and spawns more adds.
- Complete add waves to break the shield.
Strategy: Tanks kite boss away from raid; DPS prioritize Sappers. Healers manage area damage and occasional tank burst.

Boss 4 – Wing Leader Ner’onok

Quick-Dry Resin: Applies Amber Resin stacks; when full, players are stunned unless they jump.
- Healers & DPS should preempt these and jump to stay active.
Air Support & AoE Shuffle: He periodically attempts aerial support; group must dodge bombs and resin hits.
Battle Flow: Spread for resin, keep stacks low, DPS boss while staying mobile.
