1.8.

Phase 1:

  • Tindral has these abilities in every phase.
  • Tanks: Searing Wrath Icon Searing Wrath is a stacking fire dot applied on every attack. Tanks should do their first swap at 6-9 stacks and then whenever the debuff expires.
  • Tanks: Tanks also get another mechanic to deal with, Blazing Mushroom Icon Blazing Mushrooms! These need to be soaked; however, when you soak one, you have a debuff, which increases your damage taken from another mushroom for a short period of time, so you will need to alternate who soaks which mushroom.
    1. Tank 1 takes Mushroom 1 and 3.
    2. Tank 2 takes Mushroom 2 and 4.

  • If any Blazing Mushroom Icon Blazing Mushroom is not soaked, then it will deal a very large amount of damage to the entire raid.
  • Fiery Growth Icon Fiery Growth will be placed on the furthest 3 targets from Tindral. This is a dispellable debuff, however once dispelled, it will leave a pool of fire on the ground permanently and apply a DoT to the raid as well.
  • If you get Fiery Growth Icon Fiery Growth run away from the raid. Once dispelled, a pool of Scorching Ground Icon Scorching Ground will appear.
  • Several players will be marked with Falling Star Icon Falling Star and have large blue circles around them. These players should run away from the raid.
  • This then triggers Star Fragments Icon Star Fragments to fall in the room, avoid these.
  • If you ever stand on the absolute edge of the platform, Tindral will hit you with Flame Surge Icon Flame Surge.
1.9.

Moonkin Abilities:

  • When Tindral shifts into this form, he will deal damage to the entire raid with Sunflame Icon Sunflame periodically.
  • Fire Beam Icon Fire Beam will mark an area of the room with a large fire swirly. Move away from this and shortly after beams of fire will shoot across the platform.

1.10.

Heroic Changes:

  • Three Fire Beam Icon Fire Beam's will spawn at a time, meaning you have to dodge a lot more fire!

1.11.

Intermission:

  • When the intermission begins all players will be pushed away from the centre of the room. Don't fall off, and don't get pushed into fire!
  • Fallen Feather Icon Fallen Feather's will now fall into the boss room, run towards one of these, and use your extra action button. This will now allow you to use your Dragonriding mount (don't worry if it's still greyed out, it'll work). Get on your mount and follow Tindral to the next platform.

  • You will notice green Dream Essence Icon Dream Essence orbs in the sky. Fly into these to gain a stacking 5% damage buff for the entire raid.
  • Flying into Dream Essence Icon Dream Essence or Emerald Gale Icon Emerald Gale will give you a speed boost and restore 3 Vigor.
  • Avoid flying into the red Scorching Plume Icon Scorching Plume orbs as it will remove 3 Vigor and your current movement speed.
  • Once you reach the next platform, land and attack Tindral to remove the Supernova Icon Supernova shield. Once the shield has been destroyed, the next phase will begin. Failing to destroy the shield in time will wipe the raid.

Phase 2:

  • In this phase, Tindral will shift into a Treant Form instead of Moonkin.
1.13.

Treant Abilities:

  • Make sure you do not tank Tindral near the edge of the room or near fire patches, as seeds can spawn there.
  • When Tindral shifts into this form, he will apply Suppressive Ember Icon Suppressive Ember to players. Suppressive Ember Icon Suppressive Ember absorbs healing and should be healed off as a priority.
  • Flaming Germination Icon Flaming Germination will deal raid-wide damage for 10 seconds and spawn Seed of Flame Icon Seed of Flame's around the boss.
  • You have 10 seconds to destroy all of the Seed of Flame Icon Seed of Flame. Simply step on the seeds to destroy them and take a small amount of damage.
  • Failing to destroy the seeds in 10 seconds will grow into a Flaming Tree Icon Flaming Tree and deal significant damage to the raid.

Mythic Strategy

Currently, this tab will only contain information on what changes on Mythic. A more robust strategy will be added after the raid goes live.

1.17.

Mythic Changes:

  • Fiery Growth Icon Fiery Growth now applies a debuff to the raid, increasing their damage taken from it by 2000% for 3 seconds. Have two healers assigned to manage the dispels to prevent any accidents which can wipe you.
  • Removing Mass Entanglement Icon Mass Entanglement or preventing it from being applied will spawn a Treant, which deals a large amount of ticking raid damage.
  • Blazing Mushroom Icon Blazing Mushroom are now joined by Wild Mushrooms Icon Wild Mushrooms. Two mushrooms will spawn at a time, and the tanks will need to alternate which one they soak.
    1. 1. Tank 1 takes Fire, Tank 2 takes Poison.
    2. 2. Tank 1 takes Poison, Tank 2 takes fire.
    3. 3. Tank 1 takes Fire, Tank 2 takes Poison.
    4. 4. Tank 1 takes Poison, Tank 2 takes fire.
  • Fallen Feather Icon Fallen Feather now spawn during the boss phases. Players who pick these up need to soak a falling Flare Bomb Icon Flare Bomb and then dive into the raid to destroy the Mass Entanglement Icon Mass Entanglement roots. If any Flare Bomb Icon Flare Bomb hit the ground, the raid will wipe. If a player tries to soak two Flare Bomb Icon Flare Bomb they will die (but potentially save the raid).
  • Dream Essence Icon Dream Essence or Emerald Gale Icon Emerald Gale now only restores 1 Vigor.
  • Tindral now deals increasing amounts of damage in the intermission.
  • Players can only soak one Seed of Flame Icon Seed of Flame every 10 seconds; soaking more will force a tree to spawn.
