The Empowerment, Deliverer, Bringer, and Guardian of Solace creatures during the Emperor Ssraeshza encounter should now have a buff description on them that can be examined explaining what actions from the challenger can have negative effects on defeating them.

The Empowerment of Solace during the Emperor Ssraeshza encounter should no longer spike such large damage hits with their class profession spells and/or abilities.
