Excavation Site: Wetlands Boss Strategy
Excavation Site: Wetlands has three bosses.
|
Saltspine
Saltspine is located on a lake around the dungeon. His only abilities of note are a Dust Storm that will reduce your hit chance by 25% (only cast on the melee area around him, so move out of melee range if you can afford to not be here), and a Tendon Rip on your tank that slows his movement speed. |
|
Shadetooth
Shadetooth is perhaps the hardest encounter in Excavation Site: Wetlands. Shadetooth is best fought by the crocodile den area you have to clear to get to him. There are also raptors stealthed by the bushes surrounding Shadetooth, so it is a good idea to clear these before pulling the boss. Shadetooth pulls with two Thicket Hunter that can use  Infected Wound on the tank,
reducing his healing taken. If you don't have any reliable CC, the Thicket Hunters should die first,
while making sure your tank is dispelled.
Shadetooth himself has three abilities of note: An AOE Fear that can be dangerous if there are mobs near him, a Rend that deals heavy damage to the tank, and an Enrage once he reaches 30% health. As Shadetooth can be CC'd, save stuns and similar stops to mitigate his enrage effect. |
|
Relic Guardian
The Relic Guardian is the last boss of the dungeon. He starts as inactive, but you can start the encounter by interacting with the Archival Panel to his right. He has a few abilities of note: Constant knockbacks and stuns on the tank, as well as a Thunderclap that significantly slows anyone caught in it. As he casts Thunderclap on his melee range, stay away from him if you don't need to be there. Although he is a mechanical mob, he is susceptible to most CCs, so use that to help save your tank. |
