Duskwatch Guard x7

Quelling Strike

High damage꧋ frontal cone, also stunning any players hit for two seconds.

The cone has a small radius but hits very hard, so dodge to the side and try to keep them f🌺acing the same way while tan🧸king them.

Fortification

Cast tﷺhat applies a 25 percent damage taken reduction and Has🍨te buff.

Long cast and e🤡asily interruptible, or the buff itself can be spell stolen/purged.

Mana Saber x6

Mana Fang

Pounces to the furthest away enemy, dealing Arcane damage to players within five yards, a🌌nd applies a stacking Arcane DoT for 12 seconds.

The DoT hits pretty hard, so either use a personal or keep these cats crowd-controlled. They do not have m🌌uch health, so t♔hey can also be bursted down quite quickly.

Duskwatch Sentry x4

Throw Torch

Nasty Fಌire attack on a random player, which leaves a short Fire DoT.

A non-elite enemy, nuking ♌down these Sentries is your first goa🔥l in these early pulls.

Sound Alarm

Ru♑ns to a nearby Signal🃏ing Beacon and begins a cast that will attract extra enemies if completed.

This is the biggest priority to prevent, as these extra mobs will not give M+ trash count and are a big waste of time to have to kill. Keep the💖 Sentry crowd controlled, locked down, and away from the Signaling Beacon at all costs.

Mana Wyrm x18

Wild Detonation

Explodes on death, dea💃ling h📖igh Arcane to any player hit.

Dodge the blue swirlie💖s🍬, the Wyrms have very low health, so you can easily cleave them down.

Guardian Construct x4

Charged Smash

Brutal frontal smash that leaves a lingering𓃲 Arcane damage zone for eight seconds.

Similar to the Duskwatch Guard's Quelling Strike, but make sure to avoid the extra purple pool afterwards.

Charging Station

Applies a buff thജat heals itself and nearby enemies, as well as increasing their damage for five seconds.

A high-priority interrupt, as letting the enemies he🌼al wi𝕴ll slow down your clear time.

Suppress

Channeled beam♚ onto a target player that deals high damage and prevents them from attacking or casting spells for six seconds.

Make sure to interrupt this, as having a player locked down𒆙 can lead to them being hit b♉y other mechanics.

Bound Energy x2

Charged Blast

Charges up a frontal b𒈔⛄last, that deals high Arcane damage and knocks back any player hit.

The Bound Energy can be crowd controlled, so try to knock the mob out of doing thi💞s cast.

Ability

Description

Strategy

Resonant Slash

Creates a largeꦏ cone both in front and behind him, slashing out to deal huge Arcane damage and stunning players hit.

Staying close to the boss will help you dodge this mov♚e, although ranged players should try to ⭕stand as far away as possible and out-range it.

Streetsweeper

Summons a floating eye that blasts a long purple li♉ne of Arcane damage toward a player.

If the ranged are standing far away, they can help bait🔯 the Streetsweeper cast away from the ma😼in group.

Arcane Lockdown

Afflicts all players with three stacks of a debuff; each stack will deal Arcane damage over time and slow the player's movement speed by 30 percent.

The d💟ebuff can also be dispelled, so try prioritising either squishy classes or immobile casters such as Warlocks.

Signal Beacon

If there are any active Signaling Beacons, Gerdo will periodically summon a Vigilant Duskwatcher.

Nuke down those enemies, as they will complicate the fight, and you ne꧒ed your focus to be on dodging the ground effects.

Vigilant Duskwatcher: This enemy will cast Hinder, stunning a player for four seconds.

Dispel this ꦚstun🌞 as quickly as possible, or else the player may be hit by one of the beams.

Flask of the Solemn Night

The boss will run over to the Flask, consuming it to gain 30 percent 🌼increased damage and Haste.

If the Flask has been poisoned, Gerdo will immediately die, but if you cannot achieve this,♔ you will have to keep playing as normal.

Watchful Inquisitor x3

Searing Glare

Caಞsts a beam of Fel enerᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚgy, dealing hefty Fire damage

Simple enough to interrupt.

Eye Storm

Channels a storm of eyes, p♋er꧙iodically dealing Fire damage to random players.

This cast cannot be k📖icked, so you should use hard cr☂owd control or displacements to prevent this from going off.

Blazing Imp x20

Firebolt

Fires a bolt of flame at an enemy, dealing large Fire dam𝐆age.

A horrifi꧙c enemy, these Imps can easily cause a wipe if encountered while you are unprepared. Use AoE crowd controls or interrupts to prevent them from killing people with Fir🅷ebolts.

Searing Embers

Shoots bolts of fire at random players.

Similarly to Firebolt, this will wipe 🔜you if you allow them to cast. Nuke down and crowd control the Imps above all else.

Felbound Enforcer x2/3

Fel Detonation

A long cast that strikes all players in line of sight, dealing large Fire damage and applying a𒆙 Fire DoT

These should be tanked near a corner or a wall, so that all players can safely run behind to line of sight this cast. This enemy cannot be crowd controlled.

Shadow Mistress x4

Bewitch

Reduces the target player's Haste and movement speed for eight seconds.

This debuff can be dispelled and is certainly not a deadly spell, so don't prioritise it above other enemy casts.

Shadow Slash

Slashes her current target, dealing largꦯe Shadow damage and reducing healing taken by 25% for six s🥀econds.

This enemy can be crowd controlled, and this debuff can be especially nasty if you are tanking her with lots of otheꦏr enemies.

Legion Hound x2

Felblaze Leap

Jumps to a random player, leaving behind a Felblaze Puddle, that deals t👍icking Fire damage.

Watch out for this, as the൲ dog jumps very quickly, and the Puddle hits very hard.

Ferocity

Enrages the enemy, increasing their Haste𒉰 by 100%.

Can't be kicked, but this enemy can be crowd controlled to prevent this from going off.

Imacut'ya x1

Scream of Pain

Inflicts Shadow damage to a𝓰ll players and interrupts spellcasting.

Try to stop your casts before this goes of൩f, as it will lock you out frဣom casting for a whole five seconds.

Whirling Blades

Slashes around herself, dealing high Physical damage and applying a na💖sty Bleed.

Always step out of this, as the range is not very large, and yoඣu 🐭can easily get back to damaging.

Baalgar the Watchful x1

Disintegration Beam

Channel that inflicts stacking Shadow damage andꦡ a damage reduction to the targeted pl🐻ayer.

Rotate your interrupts for this, as the damage will be deadly after only a few stacks on higher M+ difficulties.

Impending Doom

Applies a debuff to two random players, which will✃ explode upon expiring, dealing Shadow damage to all playe✤rs.

Dispel on🧔e debuff immediately, and let the other time out naturally. This will give you enough time to heal up the party after th♔e initial explosion.

Jazshariu x1

Shockwave

Frontal slam, which deals massive Physical d🔜amage and stuns any player hit.

This range is very small, but the hitbox is a bit dodgy, and this enemy will get many casts of this off, so play safe and don't try to min-max your positioning.

Crushing Leap

Jumps to target player, dealing Physical damage in a🥀 large area around the impact location.

The cast is long, and﷽ this should be easy to dodge, but watch🐼 out for the Shockwave he does right after landing.

Ability

Description

Strategy

Infernal Eruption

Explodes a pool of fire beneath all players, spawning a Blazing I🌳mp at each location.

Stay stacked up on the tank, and you should be able t⛄o nuke down the Imps as they spawn, but interrupt them if they do not die quickly enough. Move out of the fire pools once you see the red swirlies, and remember that the ground effect lingers for a few seconds after the initial explosion.

Burning Intensity

Stacking Fire DoT, which ramps uﷺp 🦋throughout the fight.

This is your enrage tiಞmer, as eventually, the Fire damage will become unhealable. There is not really any other unavoidable damage in this fight, so healers should try to save their healing cooldowns for when the stacks⛎ start to mount up.

Withering Soul

Cast that, if completed, will apply a stacking ten perce🐲nt maximum health and movement speed reduction to all players.

Try to make an interrupt rotation♑, to never ♔let this cast go off. The debuff combined with Burning Intensity can easily cause a wipe on Tyrannical M+ weeks.

Gerenth the Vile x1

Shadow Bolt Volley

Fires Shadow damage missiles at all players.

This does a significant amount of damage🐠, but is the only group damage Gerenth will deal, so you have a bit of time to top everybody back up before the next Volley.

Vampiric Claws

Strikes for high𝓰 Physical damage and heals for a proportion of damage dealt to the player.

Tanks should make sure to properly mitigate these hits to lessen the amo✨unt Gerenth will heal.

Hypnosis Bat

Spawns a Bat on top of a player, which will then cast Hypnosis, mind-controlling them.

The bat 💝will despawn🌳 after a while and will only do its cast once, meaning each one should be crowd controlled upon spawning. After that, you are free to leave it alone and focus damage on Gerenth.

Ability

Description

Strategy

Blade Surge

Leaps to the furthest away player's location, dealing large Physical damage and applying a Bleed to any player hit by the swirl. He will then leave behind a clone of himself in that location.

One player should be the designated🐈 baiter and try to stack all the clones on top of each other.

This will help significantly, so try to min-max your positioning. Other playe✱rs should stay close to the boss.

Piercing Gale

Fires a line of wind across the platform, dealing high Physical damage to any player hit, as w✤ell as knocking them back. All clones of Advisor Me🔯landrus will also cast this ability.

The liꦅnes will always go in the same direction, so 𝄹if the clones are stacked well, you should have decent room to dodge.

If the clones are haphazardly placed, you will haᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚve to be on your toes to dodge every purple line.

Slicing Maelstrom

Channels a storm of wind, inflicting Physical damage to all players and extra Physical damage to any player within seven yards of the caster. Clones of Advis🐈or Melandrus will also cast this ability.

Avoid being ne♕xt to the boss or any clone during this channel,✃ and help out your healer with self-healing or personal defensives.
