Brawler's Guild: Millhouse Manastorm (Special Challengers) (WoD 6.2)
Table of Contents
Millhouse Manastorm is a Special Challenger of the Brawler's Guild. This boss requires you to keep intercepting a beam on yourself to buff your damage and beat the enrage timer. Before we delve further into the explanations, we advise you to first watch this very short video, which shows how the fight with Millhouse Manastorm.
This encounter is not currently part of the Battle for Azeroth season of the Brawler's Guild.
Abilities and Strategy
Millhouse Manastorm has three abilities: Frostbolt,
Shadowbolt, and
Get Off!. The first two deal a bit of damage
to you, but are of no consequence on the strategy.
Get Off! knocks you back if you
get within 3 yards of Millhouse.
In addition, Millhouse will summon 2 Power Crystals every 15 seconds.
Each Power Crystal channels a beam of light towards Millhouse. These beams buff
him every second with Power Overwhelming. This buff
stacks up to 100 and every stack increases damage done by 5%.
The strategy for this fight is simple. The idea is to keep stacking
Power Overwhelming on yourself while preventing
Millhouse from stacking it on himself.
Whenever a new set of Power Crystals
spawn, you need to intercept one of the beams, so that
Power Overwhelming stacks on yourself, and you need
to destroy the Power Crystal channeling the other beam (preventing Millhouse
from receiving any stack). If you have a pet, you can positioning on the other
beam so it intercepts it (this way, you do not need to waste time destroying
the Power Crystal that channels it).
When a new set of Crystal Powers appear, there will be 4 beams for a few
seconds. This should not distract you and you should immediately stop dealing
with the old set of Power Crystals and start dealing with the new one. It is
not a problem if Millhouse receives a few stacks of Power Overwhelming
from the old set of Power Crystals. These stacks will drop before he summons
a new set of Crystal Powers.
When you reach about 80 stacks of Power Overwhelming,
you should use all your DPS cooldowns to burn the boss.
Generic Advice
- Do not panic. It does not matter if you mess up your rotation, but you need to stick to the strategy.
- If you are in for a long Brawler's Guild session, you may want to use a flask.
- Prepot! Use a
Potion of Brawler's Might, a
Potion of Brawler's Cunning, or a
Potion of Brawler's Deftness right before Millhouse Manastorm appears, depending on what your main statistic is.
- When the 60-second cooldown on your potion is over, you can use the same
potion again or you can use a
Brawler's Healing Potion if you need healing.
- Group up with other players so that you benefit from each other's buffs.
