Vaelgor ed Ezzorak

Born as clutchmates in the red dragonflight, Vaelgor and Ezzorak were once the guardians of all living things. Now, twisted by the dark will of Xal'atath, all that remains of their former selves is their unyielding bond to one another.

Vaelgor ed Ezzorak

Tips

information

1. Basic Strategy

  • Two bosses, not shared health. Split damage so they die at the same speed.
  • Keep them more than 15 yards apart and within 10% HP, or Twilight Bond gives them 100% extra damage until fixed.
  • Tank them near where they spawn, close to the 15-yard limit for cleave value.
  • Raid stands between them and hits from the sides. Do not stand behind either boss because Tail Lash will launch you.

Gloom

The orb shrinks each time a player soaks it, up to 4 times.When the orb reaches the edge of the room, it will explode, deal raid-wide damage, and leave a massive puddle. Puddle size and explosion damage are reduced with each soak.If a gloom reaches the edge of an existing puddle, it will also explode, so make sure to aim correctly!Players who soak Gloom orb take damage and a heavy, stackable DoT for 12s.
Touch the orb to soak it as it passes.

Dip into the beam to reduce Nullzone pull.
