FIGHT OVERVIEW
  • At 100 energy the boss spawns adds. Upon death, they knock back the raid.

  • Tornadoes spawn and don't disappear. The room will become increasingly cluttered over time.

HEROIC CHANGES
  • At 100 energy, the boss now only spawns 1 big add on her platform. She also spawns 1 big add and a group of small ones on another platform.

  • Kill the add on the boss' platform to get knocked to the other platform. Kill the adds there and use the death of the big one to cross back to the boss' platform.

  • The lightning debuff now lasts 15s, making it even more crucial not to spread it to other players or refresh it

RESOURCES

1
General Vault By Causese

A general WeakAura pack that provides "icon" style mechanics/debuff as well as short descriptions for each. Pretty standard. We also recommend downloading Causese Sound addon to hear vocal announcements. Feel free to thank the amazing Causese here (sorry, no Twitter that I know of...).

2
Co Tank Weakaura by Causese

Another must-have by Causese if you play or are planning to play tank. It informs you when to taunt and how your co-tank is doing with their mechanics.


Make sure to checkout the Causese Sound addon to also pair it with appropriate sound announcements.

3
Conductive Mark Group

Same WA than Primal Council from Causese. It will list players with the conductive mark debuff. Very usefull for Raid Leaders on Mythic difficulty.


However you will have to update the debuff ID to match with Dathea Conductive Mark.
