Magisters' Terrace

Lust Timing

  • Lust #1: First pull
  • Lust #2: Double spellbreaker pull just before second boss.
  • Lust #3: on CD on third boss ideally after Triplicate
  • Lust #4: on CD on final boss

Major Utility

Skip tech

  • If you have a Warlock Gateway or Evoker Rescue (3 seater mount), you can skip the final pack before the final boss
  • Other creative ways to skip this are possible (Warrior Leap, DH Shift, Monk Transcendence, Druid Charge, etc.)

Boss Tips

Arcanotron Custos

  • Pull the first set of wyrms and Pyromancer into the first boss
  • Move the boss to the doorway during the intermission to simplify orbs
  • 💨 Snare Removal: Ethereal Shackles (the root / magic dot)

Seranel Sunlash

  • 🛡️ Defensive Usage: If you get the debuff and the clear zone didn't spawn yet (long debuff)]
  • If pugging, use pings to coordinate clear order. This noticeably improves consistency.
  • Ideally let the squishy players clear first
  • This boss does have a purge (Hastening Ward). Purge this to reduce tank damage.

Gemellus

  • 🛡️ Defensive Usage: Cosmic Sting (big hit + dot that drops a puddle)]
  • Make sure you are within range of healer. It is easy to outrange if you don't pay attention to this

Degentrius

  • Each of the 3 dots have a different duration. The closest player to the boss gets the shortest duration dot, the furthest player gets the longest duration dot. Game this with your defensives.
  • 🛡️ Defensive Usage: When you have a dot (ideally a long one) AND have to soak an orb.
  • Tank can step out of melee safely when needed.

Trash Tips

Brightscale Wyrms

  • After first boss, stagger the two Wyrm packs so explosions land 3-5 seconds apart.
  • Pull Wyrms on top of other mobs to keep count/time efficient.

Runed Spellbreakers

  • 🛡️ Defensive Usage: Glaive cast is very high damage
  • When pulled with a Spellwoven Familiar, prioritize the Spellwoven Familiar to avoid it overlapping damage with Glaives
  • Consider CCing one of the Lightward Healers to reduce Holy Fire dots. Chain once the first healer dies.

Shadowrift Voidcaller

  • 🛡️ Defensive Usage: Consuming Shadows. Strong groups kill before second AoE.
  • Any damage reduction also reduces the mobs self-healing

Devouring Tyrant

  • Devouring Strike applies a large tank absorb. CC helps tank survive.
