Priestess Denerva Vah'lis
by Ebofu
Has a knockback aoe, 35s timer.

More importantly has a frontal red text - Piercing Wail (only announces it before the first, after that you have to pay attention to cast bar). It has a near unlimited range so you have to move behind her, if it hits anyone they can't cast for 2 minutes and take significant damage. Tank her always facing away from raid, tank moves behind her for each Wail then runs back in front, she has a terrible hitbox so she is likely to move.

She has an add - Arcane Disruptor. It only takes melee damage and if not killed it has some spell cater related fail effect, yet to see it. So melee kills that.

Named also has a 'forced tank swap' due to Crippling Aura, which after every hit on the tank increases damage they take by 10%, growing exponentially higher after 10 increments. Dependent on your raid force how many increments you can survive but just change tanks and wait for it to expire on the original tank before switching back.

Easier than Entrancer, and less of a dps check than Caella

The add on this encounter is a major PITA. Not only can it only be damaged by melee, but it has a massive amount of HP.

The Add has a damage shield reflect that quadruples the reflect damage. The thing about the adds reflect is that it only reflects magic based damage. A mage nuke of 50k will cause the add to zap it's target for 200k. The reflect shield isn't up every hit, but its up enough that 1 shots from mages will be common. Mages will either have to use only small damage spells to avoid the big reflects or just focus solely on the named. Scouts/Fighters/Melee Priests are free to open up and full burn on the add while the mage dps burns the named.

The second effect of the add is that when it dies, it debuffs crit bonus by 250 and potency by 100 on everyone within a 10 meter range. You will want everyone besides the Add tank jousting away from the add at 10% health so they avoid the debuff for the next add burn.

are you sure the add only takes melee damage?
