Brief Event Overview & Strategy
* Mandatory Audio/Text GTT Trigger information is available in the GTT section further down in this post.
Velishan changes forms. Each form represents an element (Magic, Disease, Fire, Ice, Stone). Each has an associated AE.
Each element provides immunity to Velishan, but at the same time she becomes VULNERABLE to another element.
Velishans form changes based on how MUCH VULNERABLE DAMAGE is done to her.
Too much of an immune damage will cause Velishan to power up (100k per hit).
Velishan will power up the longer we take to defeat her.
Warning: Do not dispell Veliash. Certain debuff lines reduce resists and/or have stacking conflicts that will prevent her Scales of X buff from landing resulting in her powering up with 100k hits. Covering a few areas to watch below, please note/test/report any others and we'll adjust going forward.
ENCHANTERS: Do not use Arcane Disjunction Aura. Stacking conflicts with Scales of Magic (on Dragon), resulting in Velishan to power up (100k hits)
WIZARDS: Do not use Arcomancy. The magic debuff portion has stacking conflicts with Scales of Magic (on Dragon). Scales not landing causes Velishan to power up (100k hits)
DRUIDS: Your Summers line (Fire/Ice), have a PRISMATIC CHECK as well, and this will cause immunity failures during MAGIC forms.
MELEE: Watch your PROC AUGS. Certain types of damage will work against us
CASTERS: Watch your SYMPATHETIC PROC AUGS. Ie, Disease proc will work against us during Scales of Disease form.
Please watch /rs for element vulnerabilities please. React to MA calls as request.
Any questions, please ask in the FLRaids:raids channnel. Thanks

Far as I am concerned, all you need is to know the colors of Velishan and what they mean. Know that, Velishan is easy.

The colors seem obvious so far. The triggers are additional help to focus the raid on the proper vulnerable element.
Overall, we won on the first attempt. But I can easily see it powering up if we're distracted eating pie for example.

Velishan Colors to Vulnerabilities
Based on attempts last night. Here's the colors so far. Once we get used to the colors it'll become second nature.

Event Adjusts
Needling through the logs on this last night, I believe we're focusing too much effort on what NOT to do.
What I want everyone to focus on is the VULNERABLE Damage. If you cannot do the vulnerable damage, don't worry about it, just keep doing what you're doing and only stop if your trigger fires telling you to do so.
I believe by reducing our duration in any given color; we'll reduce the culmination of AE's that is happening. Everyone remember last night with the fear and how it was steadily increasing the longer we remained in magic. Stop that from happening by making it change color by applying the vulnerable damage.
PS: I do not see any reference in the logs to Velishans enrage emote, which is the indicator that we've done too many wrong things. This is why I believe it was our timid approach after a few wipes that has lead to the AE's eventually overwhelming us.
Viral Trigger Addition
Also need everyone to add the following two triggers to reduce the viral spreading and damage we're taking.
bg-velishan-virals.gtt
When the trigger fires, RUN AWAY, or you'll infect others.
Velishan targets several people each time.
