Brief Event Overview & Strategy
Event is triggered upon entering the event room.
Boss roams around room with an Aura active which has a huge DD and Mana Drain if hit by it.
Various adds and mini-bosses spawn at different stages we have to deal with in different ways.
Entire event is timed, including each stage.
Stages below are listed in order of appearance.
* Friendly reminder: Freelance Raid Suggestion Policy regarding New Content (http://forums.eqfreelance.net/index.php?topic=10656.0) - Don't kill the messenger -- pie management.
Hammers, Axes, Siphons
Waves of adds spawn. Sets of: 1 Essence Hammer, 2 Executioner's Axes, and 1 Magical Siphon.
Our kill order is: Siphons, Axes, Hammers.
Everyone position IN THE SOUTH EAST (SE) CORNER. SE corner is the immediate corner to your left as you enter the event area. Do not stand near the tables.
DPS - MINI BURN FROM ENGAGE - We must keep pace killing the adds, or we become overwhelmed and lose tanks.
Tanks:
Hammers - Tank them in corner, face them towards the corner. We don't want their Frontal AE (Bonk (http://www.raidloot.com/Spells.aspx?name=47598)) hitting tanks who have the debuff: Mana Destruction (http://www.raidloot.com/Spells.aspx?name=47599) (from Siphons).
Siphons, Axes (executioners), tank at raid.
Books
6 living tome (books) spawn, along with lorenado (like a miniboss). A viral silence comes into play.
Casters and Healers position at the nearby TABLE to avoid silence.
Paladins - Position at table to avoid silence, splash main raid, and patch heal Book tanks.
MA work books, leaving lorenado miniboss until last.
Tanks:
Lorenado Tank, position that miniboss over by the doorway right nearby our corner (it's right next to a golem).
Golem tanks, prep before Lorenado dies. We need you to move into position at your assigned Golem.
Golems
Four Imperial Constructs (golems), activate. Golems cast Golem's Grasp, if you're too close you get pulled in. 15s later, they cast Footstomp, AE DD (185k, down to 120k after spell shielding).
(http://www.eqfreelance.net/images/eok-chardok-atrebes-vault-golems-02-08-2018-rev1.jpg)
| Get in Position | | | /tar hotkey |
| North East | (NE) | | an_imperial_construct00 |
| North West | (NW) | | an_imperial_construct01 |
| South East | (SE) | | an_imperial_construct02 |
| North East | (SW) | | an_imperial_construct03 |
Note: If these /targets IDs for Golems are incorrect, please let me know. Tanks worked out the /target IDs, and I confirmed with Evilash, but just in case something is amiss, let me know, thanks.
Casters and Healers, position outside Golem AEs. Move as applicable to avoid roaming boss with aura.
MA work around room starting at SW, then NW, NE and do SE last.
Tanks:
You are assigned in pairs (two tanks per Golem), as setup allows. You have dedicated healers, usually 2-3, as setup allows.
Be already in position at your assigned Golem before this stage activates.
You cannot pre-target Golems.
Golems like to pull ya towards them (as indicated above), which makes moving them to their corners challenging. Do your best to snag them immediately upon activation and get it into your assigned corner.
Tank pairs, work together, communicate. Perhaps the backup tank can initiate the aggro, and the point tank in corner snap aggro and bring it to you. Whatever works best for you. Work with each other. Discuss this during prep with each other.
Casters and Healers, position in middle of room. Move as applicable to avoid roaming boss with aura.
Dervishes
Three dervishes (cores) are in play.
We kill the LAST Golem in the South-EAST (SE) corner of the room.
ONLY when the LAST Golem dies, EVERYONE to move to the SE CORNER. Certain players are exempt for this though (as indicated below).
BEFORE the last golem dies: Clerics, cast your IoS's as assigned and MGB Celestial Regeneration. Druid SoTW as assigned by Dimbly.
Dervish TANKS. Be ready and in position as assigned (SW, NW, NE). The moment the Golem dies, get ready to DISC FORT/DEFLECT, immediately target your assigned dervish and get it positioned!
HEALERS - BE IN RANGE OF YOUR DERVISH TANK - But avoid Dervish Auras!
ONLY when Dervishes are positioned is MA to call ASSIST and start killing.
Each time Dervishes reset, 20s is added to the timer.
We are delaying on Dervishes until the first RESET -- To give us a little bit more time (this may change as we improve on this stage).
MELEE DPS on Core of LIGHTNING first -- Assisting MA1.
CASTERS on Core of FLAME first -- Assisting MA2.
Then everyone converges on STONE.

An aura is visible around each Core dervish. In contact with the aura and you get a DoT. If you happen to have a lingering DoT from one of the other cores, you'll take more damage.

[Fri Mar 24 23:06:01 2017] Because they were not all slain, the trio of elemental dervishes are restored!

Everyone assist MA unless assigned otherwise. We do assign static sustained DPS groups on boss, if you're not in one of them, then you assist MA always please.
Adds:
| a tomb guardian | | Periodically spawns, and/or part of totem mechanic perhaps. |
| | |
| a ghostly guardian | | Soul Drain (http://www.raidloot.com/Spells.aspx?name=47944) 99k single-target Lifetap |
| | Effect message: The ghost drains a bit of your life away. |
| | Excess mana penalty add |
| | |

Excess Mana & Penalty Adds Mechanic
10s Warning Emote: The ancient undead probes your magical essences.
Penalty Emote: The ancient undead uses your excess mana to summon a ghost.
If your mana isn't within 30% to 70%, you'll spawn a ghost add.
We need EVERYONE keeping an eye on their GROUP MEMBERS MANA. It's easy to forget and end up outside the required thresholds! This is the single biggest factor that wipes us at this stage.
Important Note: When you die and are in HOVER MODE (RIP), you still count by the excess mana check and you will fail the mechanic causing an add to spawn each time. From 30% onward, if you die, click ZONE TO BIND and don't take a rez unless you are not a mana class (ie, Berserkers, Rogues, Warriors are OK to take rezzes). Thanks. :)
