Conclave of Wind Encounter Guide: Strategy, Abilities, Loot

• Prioritize AoEing the adds on Anshals platform if you are a ranged DPS assigned to this job; they must die quickly.
• Save major DPS cooldowns for when you gather on Nezirs platform as there are no DPS players here normally.
• Be vocal about boss health as you might need to swap platforms to help lower the health of other bosses if they are too high.

• Coordinate cooldowns for the Sleet Storm channels to reduce the incoming raid damage.
• You will need to often dispel the DoT debuff from the add tank on Anshals platform.
• Be ready to overheal the Nezir tank before and during each Permafrost cast.

• Do not move off of Nezirs platform before the replacement tank arrives from Anshals platform or you might kill your healer or DPS.
• Be ready with personal defensive cooldowns when tanking Anshal after the Zephyr channel, as he will be dealing 225% increased damage.
• You will need to frequently move the bosses out of AoE on the group while keeping them faced away from the raid group at all times.

Anshal starts the fight with zero energy. He gains 1 energy every second, and when he reaches 90 energy, he will cast Zephyr.

• Nurture
• Ravenous Creeper
• Toxic Spores
• Soothing Breeze
• Zephyr

Nezir starts the fight with zero energy. He gains 1 energy every second, and when he reaches 90 energy, he will cast Sleet Storm.

• Wind Chill
• Permafrost
• Ice Patch
• Sleet Storm

Rohash starts the fight with zero energy. He gains 1 energy every second, and when he reaches 90 energy, he will cast Hurricane.

• Slicing Gale
• Wind Blast
• Tornado
• Hurricane

To start the fight off you will need to split the raid up between the three platforms. Each platform has one of the three bosses of the encounters on it and must be handled in different ways; you can travel between the platforms by walking, not jumping, into the air lifts on the edge to get boosts to the adjacent platform. Rohash on the East platform should have 2 healers and a handful of ranged DPS. Nezir on the North platform should have 1 tank and 2 healers. Anshal on the East platform should have 2 tanks, 2 healers, melee DPS and a few ranged DPS with strong AoE.

On the East platform you will deal with Rohash. He does not have an auto attack, but instead will attack random enemies with Slicing Gale. He will frequently summon Tornados around him, dealing very high damage and knocking back anyone they hit, be sure to avoid these. Lastly he will use Wind Blast, a frontal cone attack dealing damage to enemies hit and knocking them back. This boss is difficult to melee attack safely, which is why we send only ranged DPS here; avoid being near the boss and keep an eye out for any Tornados. At 90 Energy Rohash will cast Hurricane, knocking everyone on his platform into the air, dealing damage to them every second.

Nezirs platform to the North will need to be tanked. Keep him faced away from allies as he uses Permafrost, dealing very high Frost damage to all enemies in front of him over 3 seconds. He will also place Ice Patchs under the feet of random targets, be ready to quickly move out of these. The main threat on this platform however is the Wind Chill debuff that will stack up overtime, increasing your Frost damage taken by 10% per stack. To counter the stacks of Wind Chill, the tank and healer on this platform must periodically swap places with the off-tank and 1 healer from Anshals platform to reset these stacks. At 90 Energy Nezir will cast Sleet Storm, dealing massive damage to all enemies on his platform, but the damage is divided between all enemies hit.

Anshal spawns 5 Ravenous Creepers which apply Toxic Spores, a stacking poison DoT to any nearby enemies. These must be picked up by a tank and moved away from the rest of the raid, while the debuff gets dispelled frequently. Anshal will also periodically spawn a Soothing Breeze patch on the floor, healing himself and any adds in the area every second; be ready to quickly move him or the adds out of this circle. At 90 Energy Anshal will cast Zephyr, healing himself and any remaining adds; be sure to finish off any Ravenous Creepers that are alive before this cast goes off. After the channel ends he will also deal 225% more damage for 15 seconds.

The main mechanic of the fight is the Wind Energy that all three bosses share. All three bosses will will gain 1 Energy a second, meaning they will use their "ultimate" abilities every 90 seconds. Properly handling these abilities is the main part of the fight and will be the primary focus of the group. For Anshal casting Zephyr, you will simply need to be sure that you finish off all adds before the Zephyr channel begins, or they will be healed to full and have their damage dealt greatly increased. Rohashs Hurricane must simply be healed through, and people must be kept healthy enough to survive the fall damage afterwards. The main threat is Nezirs Sleet Storm, which requires the majority of the raid to move to his platform before this channel starts to evenly split the damage between as many players as possible.

When the bosses reach 80 Energy, have all the DPS leave Rohash and Anshals platforms and move to Nezir. Use all major defensive cooldowns here to to survive the Sleet Storm. After the 15 second channel ends you will want to return to your starting platforms, evenly damaging the 3 bosses as much as possible. Save your major DPS cooldowns for when the bosses are around 15%, as all 3 bosses much die within 60 seconds of each other or they will revive with full health, causing a wipe.
