Cry of Mrrggllrrgg mass
Enrage

Hylbrande Boss Guide
All Roles
- Avoid being hit by the
Titanic Crash frontal. - If you get targeted by
Purged by Fire, kite it away from
the boss to avoid being damaged and having better
Purging Field
ichor management. - Make sure you defeat Vault Purifiers as quickly as you can while
interrupting their
Valorous Bolt cast and stopping their
Empowered Defense
channel (makes the boss take 25% reduced damage). - During the
Sanitizing Cycle cast, have one person interact with the console
while the rest of the party assembles the right sequence of colors.
Tank
- Use your active mitigation during
Shearing Swings. - Do your best to stack the Vault Purifiers on top of the boss to enable better stacked cleave.

Purifying Burst are topped-up.

Super Saison
debuffs coming from Burly Deckhand as you can. - Interrupt Hourglass Tidesage's
Brackish Bolt and
side-step their

Timecap'n Hooktail Boss Guide
All Roles
- Never stay near the water else you will end up dying from
Deadly Seas sharks. - Be stacked at all times to make clearing all the adds easier with
Infinite Breath,
since they fixate random members and will be walking in the same direction.
Tank
- When Corsair Brute & Corsair Cannoneers spawn, aim the
Infinite Breath cast on top of them to kill them.

Time Bomb debuff as upon dispelling, the
whole party takes damage from
Temporal Detonation.

Drifting Star and focus the
