The Rookery Dungeon Guide: Location, Boss Strategies, and Trash
This page will cover everything you need to know about the Rookery Dungeon in the War Within Expansion, including strategies for events, trash, and bosses.
Getting into The Rookery
The Rookery is a level 70-80 dungeon located on the West side of Isle of Dorn, Khaz Algar.
The Rookery Location

This guide will be an extensive overview of the dungeon, providing vital information on how to complete it across all difficulties. We will cover all 3 Boss fights, as well as the most notable trash enemies in the dungeon and their important abilities. If you would like to learn about the rest of the dungeons in The War Within Season 1, please see our overviews linked below. Otherwise, without further ado, let us begin!
Kyrioss + Trash Mobs in the Area
Notable Trash Before Kyriossn
- Interrupt Cursed Thunderer's
Lightning Bolt.
- Avoid being hit by the Quartermaster Koratite's
Bounding Void frontal. In addition, make sure to switch positions if he casts
Entropy Shield in front of you.
- Avoid the Unruly Stormrook's
Thunderstrike and sidestep their frontal ability -
Energized Barrage.
- Any spare interrupts should be used for Cursed Rooktender's
Enrage Rook.
Kyrioss Guide

All Roles
- Sidestep the incoming
Lightning Dash otherwise it will be lethal.
- Use defensive during Kyrioss's
Chain Lightning.
- When Kyrioss reaches 100 Energy he will charge in the middle
and begin channeling its
Lightning Torrent cast. If you don't outrun the beam you will likely take the lethal amount of damage and die.
- Use your defensive during
Unstable Charge.
Tank
- -
Healer
- Look out for
Stormheart at all times.
- Make sure players are healthy before each Kyrioss's
Chain Lightning.
Stormguard Gorren + Trash Mobs in the Area
Notable Trash Before Stormguard Gorren
- Interrupt Coalescing Void Diffuser's
Arcing Void. In addition, make sure to run away from its
Attracting Shadows before the channel has finished.
- Watch out for Corrupted Oracle and its
Seeping Corruption
Curse effect. Stop their
Void Shell cast at all costs since it does absorb shield to the nearby mobs.
- Have at least 4 yard distance between you and the tank when fighting
Void Cursed Crusher due to their
Implosion cast.
Stormguard Gorren Guide

All Roles
- Sidestep its
Crush Reality ground animation, while dodging the follow-up
Reality Tears. Do keep in mind that the
Lingering Void ground patch will remain there for a long time.
- During the
Dark Gravity channel cast, use any movement speed abilities to escape from the pull-in effect.
- Use defensive cooldowns during the
Chaotic Corruption cast.
Tank
- Move Stormguard Gorren away from any existing
Lingering Void ground swirlies.
Healer
- When dealing with
Chaotic Corruption, you must prioritise players that are more durable than others when removing the application. Not only it will trigger a follow-up effect -
Chaotic Explosion but it will also apply to the player that receives it with
Chaotic Vulnerability. No DPS should ever go above 1 stack unless they have immunity, or very strong defensive (preferably the tank can get more).
Voidstone Monstrosity + Trash Mobs in the Area
Notable Trash Before Voidstone Monstrosity
Once you reach the final area, you will be able to be supported by Stormrider Vokmar
and its Storm's Vengeance ability (use your extra action button). This allows you to
stun any nearby non-boss-enemies for a short period (
Electrocuted), essentially helping you
defeat them.

- Interrupt Void Fragment's
Void Bolt.
- Stop the incoming
Void Volley cast from the Void Ascendant.
- Avoid the
Void Backlash ground animation upon breaking the Radiating Voidstone's
Embrace the Void uninterruptable shield.
Voidstone Monstrosity Boss Guide

All Roles
- Use your defensive cooldown if you get targeted by
Unleash Corruption. Beware tho, on
Mythic difficulty it spawns Void Chunks which you must defeat before they
Reshape into Voidstone Awakened.
- Sidestep all the ground visuals when Voidstone Monstrosity casts
Null Upheaval.
- If any of the players gets
Stormrider's Charge, use to to clear any permanent ground void zones.
Tank
- Make sure to stay in melee at all times to prevent the boss from casting
Entropy.
- Use defensive during
Oblivion Wave and aim it away from your party.
Healer
- Use your healing cooldowns during
Null Upheaval as it will deal group-wide damage.
