You can find this dungeon in Harandar located at 26.80, 78.00.

These three bosses all share a health pool, and any cleave or AoE abilities will help take them down faster.

• Make sure to soak the Lightblossoms that appear to stop them from getting stacks of Light-Gorged from Lightblossom Beam.
• Avoid green swirling puddles on the ground called Fertile Loam.
• Interrupt Light Bolt from Kezkitt when possible.

• Use your active mitigation during Bedrock Slam cast.
• Always try to stack the bosses together to allow your party to have better cleave potential.

• Watch out for Thornblade as it will put a nasty bleed on a random player.
• Use your major healing cooldowns during the Bedrock Slam cast, as there will be a party-wide damage over time component on Mythic difficulty.

• Avoid being rooted by the Bloodthorn Roots that swarm over the arena. If rooted, you can either kill them, or use an ability that clears root effects.
• Beware the edges when Ikuzz uses Verdant Stomp as it will knock you back. In Mythic difficulty it will create roots under the players.
• Players will periodically be targeted by Ikuzz's Bloodthirsty Gaze, keep your distance and try to guide him through roots to help clear the boss arena. If he reaches you, you will take massive amounts of damage and be stunned for 5 seconds.

This powerful druid of the Haranir will swap between his Moonkin and Bear forms throughout the fight. Watch out for when he reaches 40% health, as he will channel Spirits of the Vale, casting all his spells in a flurry until he is defeated.

• Pulverizing Strikes will launch a cone attack at a few targets, noted by a red arrow above their head. Make sure to be spread for this mechanic.
• Make sure to give your party room when Lightfire expires, as it will spawn beams that silence any players caught in their path.
• Interrupt Warden's Wrath during Ruia's Moonkin form when possible.
• Avoid the circles on the ground when Lightfall is cast.

• Heal up any targets afflicted with Grievous Thrash to full, as the bleed will stack and not be removed until the target is healed to full health.

• Ziekket will periodically summon Lightspawn Lashers. Make sure to kill them quickly.
• If targeted by Concentrated Lightbeam, position yourself so that it will hit the corpses of the Lashers you have killed to prevent them from respawning.
• On Mythic difficult, throughout the fight, globules of Lightbloom's Essence will spawn. Grabbing them will grant you a damage and healing buff. If they reach Ziekket instead, the boss will get a shield and deal AoE damage to all players.

• Use your active mitigation during Thornspike cast.
• Group up Lashers quickly to help your group kill them.

• Ziekket pulses dealing AoE damage throughout the fight with Oozing Xylem. Use healing cooldowns as necessary to keep the group alive.
