General
- In a area filled with shallow water, near the hull of the Polaris. The boss will pop up from behind the shipping container when it is approached.
- As you run in stand on the cargo containers (container phase) until the boss casts Area of Effect (AoE) attack Psychic Death Zone, then run into the water (water phase). After water phase, back to the containers. Repeat until the boss is defeated.
- After the boss has cast Psychic Death Zone, Death Squall will be running near the boss on the containers. This will hurt if you are in it.
- Avoid black water (looks like Deep Calling) and ensure to burn down adds (Primordial Spawn and Volatile Hosts) ASAP
- Abilities to look out for:
- Tide Wall: A shield that protects the boss from damage. Can and should be purged.
- Synapse Spasm: Interruptible.
What the Tank needs to know:
- Aggro resets at end of each water phase. Be close to boss and ready to use a hard taunt
- Adds usually home in on the healer. Be ready to grab aggro ASAP on the adds.
What the Healer needs to know:
- Adds usually target healer. Be prepared to drag them over to the tank
- Group heals used at start of water phase can help less stable DPS survive the adds until your tank grabs them
What the DPS need to know:
- Burn down adds ASAP
- If adds are following you, head towards the tank so that they can aggro them.
