Belo'ren Raid Guide
Mechanic Breakdown (Normal/Heroic)
Phase 1:
As you pull the boss (and at set points in the fight) it will cast
Voidlight Convergence
which will assign players to being Void (
Void Feather) or Light (
Light Feather).
The general rule with these is that you will soak mechanics which match your colour as you
will take reduced damage from it.
Light Dive /
Void Dive will spawn on a random player and must be soaked by
other players that match the same colour. After the dive occurs it will leave a Light/Void pool on the ground
which expands over time and spawn a Light/Void Ember.- These adds do the same core abilities as each other. They deal random damage to player with
Light Blast
and
Void Blast, a raid wide AoE that can only be interrupted by players who match their colour
with
Light Eruption /
Void Eruption, and when they are killed they turn into an egg
and try to
Rebirth themselves. Destroy the egg to finally kill the add.
Radiant Echoes will spawn a wall of Light and Void orbs that will travel across the room.
Coming into contact with an orb will destroy it and create a gap in the wall. As with the theme of the fight
a player with a matching colour should create the gap.
- Tank Mechanics:
Guardian's Edict is the tank mechanic of the fight. This will be a combo
of
Light Edicts and
Void Edicts.- If any Edict frontals are not soaked the boss wil gain a 30 second buff which increases the damage it will deal. This debuff can stack.
Once you have bought the Phoenix form of Belo'ren to 0% HP it will go into an egg and Phase 2 will begin.
Phase 2 (Egg Phase):
- At the start of this phase the boss will cast
Death Drop, knock every player
into the air and turn into
an egg. - If you have a Warlock in your raid group, placing a
Demonic Gateway can
be very useful to negate the knock up mechanic as you can use the Gateway as soon as you get
knocked up. We would recommend placing the gateway from near the outer circle towards
the centre. - This is the phase where you are actually dealing damage to the boss.
- Save DPS cooldowns,
Bloodlust, and Potions for this part of the fight. - Throughout the phase the room will be covered in Light or Void. Stand in the area that matches your polarity.
After 30 seconds Phase 1 will begin again but with a stack of
Ashen Benediction applied to the raid.
Heroic Changes:
- Phase 1:
Infused Quills will target random players and create a
Void Quill/
Light Quill
of the opposite colour to them. They need to be intercepted by a player that matches the
colour of the Quill by standing between the Quill and the target.
Quick TLDR Guide
Phase 1:
- Handle mechanics which match your Light or Void polarity.
- Place
Light Dive /
Void Dive towards the outside of the circle
in the centre of the room. If you are not targeted, soak it. - Interrupt
Light Eruption /
Void Eruption. - Kill Ember adds which match your polarity and then the egg that spawns afterwards.
Phase 2 (Egg Phase):
- Save DPS cooldowns,
Bloodlust, and Potions for this part of the fight. - Stand in areas which match your polarity.
Mythic Changes
Coming Soon.
