Brief Event Overview & Strategy
One of Pelzia's remaining generals is launching a final attack, and once again Freelance must come to the rescue to save Norrath!
Event starts with wasps, that split and summon at 100% shortly after spawning. We must work through the splits to get the end named Bazzt Zzrazz to spawn.
We'll work through ONE wasp at a time, while OT'ing the other two. For the final split resulting in two Zzatazz, we'll park and MEZ them in the North-East area. Rinse and repeat.
When SIX Zzatazz are remaining, we'll take each down to 5%, mez and hold for kill-all within 30 seconds in order to spawn Zzabi.
Be aware: There is a sting emote and DT mechanic in play (explained below) during the wasp stage as well as the final boss (but different for boss stage). IF you are assigned to wasp OT/MT group(s), please ensure you are on the correct wasp and avoid getting hit by another groups wasp AE.
WASPS:
Main Assist and Tanks, please note the transitions please:
- When a Bzzazzl is killed it spawns 1x Zzazzi and 2x Bzzazzi.
- For each Zzazzi killed 1x Bzzazzi spawns. We kill the three Bzzazzi to spawn Zzaizzir.
- For each Zzaizzir killed 3x Bzzazzr spawn.
- For each Bzzazzr killed 2x Zzatazz spawn.
- ALL SIX Zzatazz must be killed within 30 seconds in order to spawn one Zzabi. If we fail, the Zzatazz respawns.
- When THREE Zzabi are killed Bazzt Zzrazz spawns.
- Any wasp left unattended for longer then 1 minute will cause the event to reset.
- Zzatazz are mezzable and stunnable.
- Wasps have a directional AE (rear arc).
FINAL BOSS: Bazzt Zzrazz
Bazzt Zzrazz is the final boss which has a sting DT mechanic we must deal with.
Every 30 seconds and 10% HP of Bazzt two random players are targeted and emoted. One player gets a YELLOW CLOUD warning emote, the other gets a RED CLOUD warning emote.
12 seconds later Bazzt will cast a YELLOW Apitoxin AE at the yellow emoted players location, and a RED AE Apitoxin at the red emoted players location.
Each AE is 40' range around the targeted players that will damage and put a 2 minute debuff on the player (Yellow or Red type).
If ANY player that has the RED Debuff is hit with the YELLOW AE, they will be DEATH TOUCHED (DT). ANY player that has the YELLOW debuff who is hit by the RED AE will be DT'd.
RED cloud emoted = RUN EAST
YELLOW cloud emoted = RUN WEST
If you fail to run, you will DIE, and kill others around you with the rain AE targeted at you.
ENTOMOLOGISTS:
Throughout the event, various non-confrontational Stone Hive entomologist adds spawned at timed intervals.
Bards and Enchanters, you can use these as pets against wasps.
CC Notes:
- These adds do not fight back unless charmed. When charmed, it will not break
- If not charmed or mezzed, they pick random Wasp targets and path towards them, then cast Entomologist's Explosion (http://raidloot.com/Spells.aspx?id=38722) on their target. They respawn a short time later.
- Mezzing them acts like a DoT and will kill them.
Any questions, please reply to this thread or ask in the FLRaids:raids channel. Thanks.
Note: WIP strategy prep. Will update the post to reflect our efforts as we progress.
