Events and trash mobs in Kriegval's Rest
Regardless of the number of events you will be doing in this Delve, it is important always to keep track of the duration of your Enchanted Candle and always replenish it if it runs low. The consequence will be dire (decreased overall health) and will likely result in unnecessary deaths.
Event #1 — 0/10 Suspicious Candles
Collect 0/10 Suspicious Candles to complete the first event.
All of the non-boss-enemies in this area:
- Interrupt Kobold Mystic's Fireball.
- Beware of Kobold Skullface and its Scratch frontal Bleed ability (you can out-range it). In addition, they will also cast Kick, which is an uninterruptible knockback effect.
- Sidestep the Kobold Taskfinder's Blazing Wick and interrupt their Battle Cry as a priority over any other spell.
Event #2 — Gigantic Candle recovered / Defeat (0/100%) Kobold swarm
Once you recover the Gigantic Candle, you must kill enough Kobold Ambushers in the area to trigger the final event and its path toward the Waxface boss.
All of the non-boss-enemies in this area:
- Beware of the number of Cavernous Shriekers you pull as they do trigger Death Screech upon death.
- Sidestep the Spitfire Fusetender's Throw Dynamite. Beware that upon death, the mob will trigger its Heated Pack passive.
- Kobold Ambushers only do auto-attacks.
Event #3 — Defeat the 2 Kobold Guardians
Here are the abilities you should pay attention to when you fight Kobold Guardian (they are similar to the Kobold Taskfinder):
- Thwack! is a heavy-buster; make sure you have enough health.
- Avoid their Blazing Wick channel.
- Interrupt their Battle Cry.
Tomb-Raider Drywhisker Boss Guide
- Use defensive cooldowns during Flamestorm and avoid any group fire swirlies.
- Make sure you have enough health for when he casts Ground Slam on you.
- Interrupt Raging Tantrum at all costs.
