El drop de malygos lo da en:

Obsequio de Alexstrasza https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/es/object=193905

Comentario de 223561

BOSS:

Malygos

Tiene 6,972,500 hit points

Habilidades/ataques básicos:

Aliento Arcano: Causa de 18,850 a 21,150 puntos de daño arcano en un cono frontal. A los 5 segundos de recibir daño, los objetivos afectados explotarán causando daño arcano adicional a los amigos cercanos.

Vórtice: Hace girar a la raid en el aire, causando daño arcano. Mientras dure, únicamente se pueden usar hechizos instantáneos.

Pulso Arcano: Causa de 28,275 a 31,725 de daño Arcano a los enemigos en un radio de 30 yardas.

Tormenta Arcana: ausan de 9425 a 10575 de daño Arcano a un objetivo al azar.

PULL:

Una vez activo el encuentro, Malygos bajará del cielo. El tanque debe cogerlo inmediatamente y ponerlo mirando hacia afuera del círculo. Toda la raid debe mantenerse detrás del dragón, que no tiene ataque de cola porque es un vago, a fin de aprovechar las chispas y evitar el daño adicional del ataque de aliento.

PRIMERA FASE:

Esta fase es un focus calavera bastante simple. Unicamente hay que tener en cuenta que, cada cierto tiempo, va a aparecer un Chispazo desde uno de los lados del círculo, que se dirigirá lentamente hacia el boss. Debe impedirse que lo haga, ya que en caso de que llegue, le da un buff de daño muy feo. Idealmente, debe cogerse la chispa por un DK o un druida e intentar matarla en medio del círculo, a fin de que todos los dps aprovechen el área que suelta al morir, que da un bufo de 50% al daño. Una raid bien coordinada puede conseguir poner dos chispazos a la vez (Y conseguir un bufo de 100% de daño ;)

Adicionalmente, Malygos hará girar a toda la raid en un vórtice, durante el cual no se puede hacer nada mas que lanzar hechizos de curacion instantáneos. Al acabar, se recoge de nuevo al boss y procedemos.

SEGUNDA FASE:

Al llegar al 50%, Malygos se va volando lentamente (La raid tiene unos 10 segundos para hacer dps adicional). Se vuelve no targeteable y atacará a la raid con hechizos arcanos. Para minimizar el daño, es necesario que todo el mundo se meta dentro de los escudos protectores que aparecen cada cierto tiempo y que se van haciendo más pequeños.

Durante esta fase aparecen dos tipos de adds:

Señor de El Nexo: Vienen volando hacia la raid y debe ser recogidos y tanqueados dentro de las burbujas protectoras. Al morir, suelta un disco volador que debe ser utilizado por los dps de la raid para ir volando hacia los Sucesores de la Eternidad para acabar con ellos. Los PJs montados en discos no reciben daño arcano.
Sucesor de la Eternidad: Se mantienen en el aire, atacando a la raid con hechizos arcanos. Será necesario pelarselos usando los discos voladores.

TERCERA FASE:

Cuando mueran todos los adds, Malygos revienta el suelo y todos los PJs se encuentran montados en dragones que cuentan con unos 75,000 hit points. La lucha ahora es de vehículos.

Se pueden usar habilidades de DPS y de curación. Normalmente, es suficiente con que dos jugadores se encarguen de curar a la raid y el resto se dedique a hacer daño. Es importante que la raid se mantenga agrupada para maximizar los efectos de curación.

La rotación mas conveniente para los dps sería:

Pica llameante dos veces seguido de Engullir en llamas y repetir el proceso

Mientras, los healers deben usar:

Devolver a la vida dos veces seguido de Rá!@#a de vida y repetir el proceso. ara poder lanzar el primero será necesario usarlo sobre un objetivo.

Adicionalmente, Malygos pondrá una áreas llamadas Campo estático que causan daño arcano en un radio de 30 m. Por ello, será necesario que toda la raid se mueva fuera de su efecto, haciendo un círculo alrededor del boss.

Por último, cada cierto tiempo, el boss elige un objetivo al azar y le ataca con Oleada de poder que causa daño arcano elevado. A fin de amortiguar el daño, conviene reservar algo de energía para activar el Escudo de Llamas cuando el boss use esta habilidad.

Si se tienen problemas en la tercera fase, se puede practicar con la quest diaria Apuesta fuerte

I guess I'll be the first to point out the obvious.

Malygos is the only boss and only hostile creature in the Eye of Eternity 10 and 25man raid in Wrath of the Lich King.

This raid is for level 80 players in almost to full naxxramas gear.

It's the third raid instance (gear wise / difficulty) that players will visit with the first two being Naxxramas and Obsidian Sanctum.

The encounter requires one member of your raid to have completed the quest from https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=44569 for the 10man version of the encounter, or https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=44577 for the 25man version of the encounter. They are both drops from Sapphiron, with the heroic key being from 25man Naxx, and the non-heroic key being from 10man Naxx.

The enouncter has three phases which present interesting challenges for the raid.

Being the first raid on your server to kill Malygos in the heroic(25man) version of the raid will be rewarded with the achievement https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/achievement=1400, getting a unique title that only your raid will have, and the server gets broadcasted letting everyone know of your achievement!

Strategies
Phase One

During Phase One, Malygos is tanked in the center of the room by one tank.

His attacks hit hard, but the attack speed is slow. He does arcane breaths for X damage.

Throughout the fight, power sparks come out of portals outside of the platform, they slowly move to Malygos, and if they hit him his next arcane breath does a VERY HIGH amount of damage, most likely one-shotting your tank. It's important that they are killed before they hit him. When the power sparks are killed, they drop a small aura on the ground that increases your damage done. The aura stacks, so if they all die in that same location, you can get very high hits off.

Trick: The sparks can be "pulled" to your DPS with Death Grip, so it advisable to have a pre-assigned stack location for your raid, and have a Death Knight pull the sparks to that spot. Once pulled they are rootable to keep them in place while you kill them.

Malygos also uses a cyclone ability that will pull the entire raid into the air and spin them around. He will not attack your tank during this ability, however power sparks will continue to move toward him, make sure you kill them if they are going to get too close to him. Once this ability ends, Malygos will be facing in a random direction and your tank will also be in a random location, so it is vital to move intelligently at this point before he is once again facing your tank, as his breath will one-shot any dps or healers unlucky enough to be in the wrong place.

Note: Once Malygos reaches 50%, he will slowly take off, however he remains targetable until he reaches his max height, so burn him as best you can while he is taking off.
Phase Two

Phase Two begins at 50%.

Malygos himself is not targetable during this phase, it will end when the adds he spawns are all killed. However, he does continue to play a part in the encounter.

During this phase he drops anti-magic zones onto the ground the raid MUST stand inside of, it reduces magical damage taken by 50%. They shrink over time, so it's important that your raid moves to each new one he drops.

Throughout the phase, he will deep breath doing ~4k damage per second, unless you are standing inside of the anti-magic zone.

The way the fight works during this phase is there are NPCs riding around on disks in the room. There are two types of mobs, Lords and Scions. The Lords will move down onto the group, and need to be tanked (They will one-shot a non-tank). After they die, they drop a disk that a raid member can mount onto, which allows them to fly, to attack the Scions that do not come down to the ground. It is recommended to let melee take the first disks, then ranged. As those mobs die, they also drop disks, which allows the rest of your dps to get onto them. The Scions will continually cast Arcane Blast on random targets on the floor, which is mitigated by the anti-magic zones. While mounted on a disk, you will not take damage.

After all of the NPCs riding on the disks die, the players on the disks need to dismount as Phase 3 is about to begin.

Note: After all the Scions are dead, you will get a short burn period on Malygos before he breaks the floor. Use any DPS increase cooldowns that are available at this time, as you will not be able to use them once you mount your dragon. If executed well you can take an extra 5%-10% off his HP before you enter phase 3.
Phase Three

Phase Three begins when all of the Scions die (the Lords should be killed first, so they must be killed as well). Malygos destroys the floor of the room, and the raid falls onto dragons.

The dragons use combo points and energy sort of like a rogue. The combo points are used for special finishing moves.

Warning : You are now entering an unclear phase's description, where things may be wrong, and not the correct strategy.

During this phase Malygos does - In Melee Range... Heavy Melee Attacks and Cleaves RangedA high damage ranged ability (The focusing mentioned below)

The dragons have 6 abilities:

Flame Spike
Damaging fire attack causing 943-1057 fire damage and awarding 1 combo point at the cost of 10 energy.

Engulf in Flames
Finishing move which launches a blast of flame igniting target for 1500 fire damage every 3 seconds. The effect can stack and will last longer per combo point up to 22 seconds. Costs 50 energy.

Revivify
A HoT that lasts for 10 seconds healing 500 per second and awarding 1 combo point at the cost of 10 energy.

Life Burst
Huge healing finishing move which increases the casters healing done by 50% and lasts longer per combo point. Max combo points award a 15k heal over 25 seconds. Costs 50 energy.

Name N/A
Increases your drake's flight speed by 500%.

Flame Shield
Finishing move to protect your drake. Shield surrounds you reducing all damage taken by 80% and lasting up to 6 seconds for max combo points. Costs 25 energy with a 30 second cooldown.

Though the strategy for this phase is still unclear, it is believed that each player should target themselves and stack up 5 revivifys granting 5 total combo points on themselves, and then they should use Life Burst. eEfore Revivify fades, the player should recast it on themselves, same deal with life burst, but switching targets clears the combo points, so you will need to cast 5 more heals on yourself then life burst before it fades.

In between keeping your Hots up you should be Flame Spike spamming malygos, after 5 combo points apply Engulf in Flames, then spam it more times.

Whenever he sets his "focus" to you, it's important that you have 5 combo points on him, and use your shield (hotkey 6). It is believed you can also use the sprint (hotkey 5) and outrange him before he begins channeling.

Note: Remember to save 25 energy at all times to use your shield. If you are at 0 energy and targeted, you may be killed before you regen enough to use your shield. This is important as threat seems strange for this portion of the encounter and you may be targeted at any time.
The End

Then you just burn him until the end of the fight, where Alexstrasza enters and finishes the battle. The loot for the fight comes from Alexstrasza's Gift, the fight rewards two badges.

The exit portal respawns, and you can fly over to it. But the floor of the instance does not respawn.

Kalecgos is another member of the Blue Dragonflight, Malygos was his "lord".

Comentario de rufio

First of all Malygos has a 10min enrage-timer over all phases, so it's important beeing fast at p1 and p2, so you have more time in p3

Here is how we get the magic seeker
<unleash> EU-Gorgonnash

Phase 1
One Tank on Malygos, should be well geared. Breath does huge damage (~20k +).
Sparks - Range DD should nuke the sparks until 10% or so, let them fly to a good position an kill them, the +50% DPS zone is needed, DK is great in pulling the sparks to melee's
Tornado - Priest should spam coh, Druids AE Hots, you can cast instants an sometimes do melee hits. NOTE: after a Tornado Malygos will cast his Breath, wich will kill everyone in front of him (except MT) our MTs runs always after it into the south, the raid in all other directions
Phase 1 goes to 50% NOTE: if p1 ends keep nuking on Malygos!

Phase 2
Adds - We have 3 Tanks for the melee adds, melees focus them, rogues get on the platforms first and stunning the caster, so you protect your raidmember from beeing focused. Caster just nuke the casters ;) NOTE: as Prot-Warri imp Spellreflect saves lifes
Zones - keep moving from zone to zone thats all
Phase 2 ends when all adds death NOTE: keep nuking Malygos at end of p2!

Phase 3
Never go into melee range to Malygos and get out of the coulds asap!
We build 2 camps, one at the east an one in the south, we always fly left to avoid clouds.
We used 5 Healers, that means, just hottig around an spamming heal ultimate, so your mates will only die on triple focus from Malygos without the absorbshield!
The other dragons just dps'n Malygos the key is stacking the dot asap, a 5cp dot only have an increased duration, not more dmg! So 2cp -> finish, 1cp -> finish, 2cp->finish (or make a 2/3/2 cycle) your dot should stack up to 10+

Very easy fight with this tactic, hf looting and sry 4 my bad english ;)

Phase 3 can be practiced with the quest (and unlocked daily) Aces High!

Comentario de 112784

According to the tome Legacy of the Aspects, written by a human seeking knowledge amongst the night elves, Malygos does not have the form of a "typical dragon." The human author of the book writes that Malygos can change his form "at will," which is, of course, not a unique ability among the dragonflights. Particularly interesting are the words that follow. The human author writes, "Rarely seen after his retreat to the far north, he is almost always in the form of an insect-like creature, but while in dragon form he, and his flight, are varying blues in color." If the account is true, it strongly suggests Malygos lives -- or once lived -- among the Nerubian race of Northrend.

Malygos has an extraordinary command over magic, and although he is not as powerful physically, his spellcasting more than counters that disadvantage. Malygos lives in a cave within Northrend, and his lair contains many arcane magical artifacts. Malygos and his flight search for any magical source and artifacts and protect them so that mortal races may not endanger the world with their reckless use. He was closest to his brother Neltharion, the Earth Warder, prior to the War of the Ancients.

With his flight nearly annihilated, Malygos began to lose his mind. He felt deep guilt for his role in convincing the other Aspects to infuse their powers into the Demon Soul. He traveled to his lair in Northrend, where he hid for millennia. Feelings of remorse paralyzed him. During the ten thousand years following The War of the Ancients, he was rarely seen by the other Aspects. His body was a caricature of his former self. A thin body surrounded by frozen ice, almost skeletal.

Malygos is the oldest of the five Aspects, possibly the oldest dragon still living.

Phase 1 and 2 are pretty much tank and spank ... Phase 3 is a lil bit more of a learning curve. I created these macros for my guildies, and we downed him in 2 attempts once they started using them

Phase 3 Dragon Macros:

--- DPS ---
/tar mal
/castsequence reset=target Flame Spike, Flame Spike, Engulf in Flames

--- Healing ---
/tar pet
/castsequence Revivify, Revivify, Life Burst

A few notes to the fellow rogues out there:

If you're combat specced with Killing Spree, save Killing Spree until you're in the vortex! If you cast Killing Spree in vortex you will instantly jump on the boss, and after the attacks are made you will land on the floor, and can dps him / run away from the tank before the others.

Also, in phase 2, do NOT use Killing Spree when you're on a Hover Disc, this will remove it, and you'll have to get a new one.

Comentario de 258545

You have got to be kidding me. Any1 mind explaining to me how you kill an Aspect?

Seriously, an Aspect is the representative of all that it standas for. So killing him, destroys all magic in Azeroth = No Mages, No Fire-Locks, no dalaran, no nothing. So, when you are killing him, you are killing mages...

On second thought... KILL THE B*STARD! :p

Exact abilities drakes in phase 3 have:

Comentario de 242099

Here is what my guild did for phase 3:

We had one person put a mark above their head (preferably something that sticks out like blue square) and that individual flew behind Malygos. Everyone else then clumps up on that person. Assign four dedicated healers, and one confident person who can call out when the lightning charge hits the group (if they angle their camera in the right way you can call it out before it hits the group.) The rest of the raid is on DPS. (For 10 man version have 2 healers instead of 4.)

Healers: Spam Revivify on yourself until you have 5 charges then hit Life Burst. Never stop this rotation. If all your healers stay alive throughout the fight you can heal through surges and don't even need to use Flame Shield (but it never hurts to use it anyways).

DPS: Use 3-4 Flame Spikes and then 1 Engulf in Flames (if you are confident you will never let your stack fall if you just use 1-2 Flame Spikes than go ahead and do that. But for simplicity sakes you should have enough time to be getting four Flame Spikes off.)

When Malygos shoots the electrical charge (that does the AoE damage) have someone call out to move. We move left (counterclockwise around Malygos). So everytime we see the charge animation coming at us we call out Left.

It is important to always to clump up on the marked target after you move. Failing to do will mean some people won't be getting hit by Life Burst.

Comentario de 132376

There is currently a bug with this fight that occurs during the transition from phase 2 to phase 3 and into phase 3. If a player does not deselect and retarget malygos once during this period they will be unable to use the flame shield drake ability that drastically reduces the damage from surge.

This bug is easily avoidable, just deselect malygos, then reselect him and you're done, it only needs to be done once.

***NOTE*** This bug has been resolved. Malygos is no longer targetable during the transition from phase 2 to phase 3, and does not become targetable until shortly after he has finished positioning himself in phase 3.

Comentario de Sxeros

Not straight-on post to the topic, but giving my opinions.

As now Malygos slain, I can do nothing else but wait with impatience; when will Neltharion, also known as Deathwing, arrive? Many of the greatest lore characters in Warcraft has already revealed theirselves in-game. As the novel the novel Night of the Dragon revealed, Neltharion is resting below Grim Batol. Us, the one's who are in love with Warcraft lore, amongside hungry raiders, hopefully, are waiting for his arrival. With his children, Onyxia and Nefarian slain, he musn't be the most friendliest person, dragon, who will hopefully give more challenge than Malygos. Gogo Dragonflights!

Comentario de fadeaway

Rogues: You can break out of his Vortex ability by using Killing Spree or Shadowstep as soon as you get thrown into the air, making it so you don't take any damage from it.

Warlocks: Set down a Demonic Circle near the center before the fight starts and teleport to it when the boss throws you up into Vortex, this will also prevent you from taking damage as well.

Patch 3.1: Rogues and Warlocks can no longer break out of Vortex with any of their abilities. :(

Comentario de Vlad

Here is a quick guide for everyone who is in a guild with potential to someday go for Malygos:

Go to Bibliotecaria Serrah (33.5 , 34.4) in Coldarra
Obtain the quest Corastrasza
Deliver it to Corastrasza (29.5 , 24.8), she is on top of a platform -you need to fly
Get the daily quest Ases del aire (first time you even get a blue item) and repeat it until
you only dream about flying around doing this daily when you sleep!

This way you get gold and reputation, and the we can do Malygos easier on Phase 3 and hopefully not wipe once we get there to it...

Tarctics oh p3:
1-1-2-3-1-1-2-3-1-1-2-3-1-1-2-3....... nonstop (if u cant use 2 cuz its grey, wait for rage and its appears)
when u see yellow letters (Malygos targets you): 1-1-4 or just 1-4 if its lack of rage. Anyway 1-4 is enogh when its used in right time when boss's beam HITS you (non when he start cast it). He cast 3 sec spell, then channel you for 4 sec. You must use 4 when he channels. You can use 4 after 2 sec of his channeling with just one combo point and survive withought troubles.

You dont need help each other, just avoid big spheres.

I'm not sure if it's only me it happens to, but healing this fight on a priest with Spirit of Redemption causes me problems. Every time I die in phase 3, and I turn into the spirit, I die suspended in the air near the portal once it's worn off. I cannot release my spirit, and when I get rezed, I cannot move at all and need to restart my client. It's absolutely ridiculous and annoying. Anyone else get that problem?

Here's a few tips if you're trying to beat the enrage timer on this boss.

1. If you're running three tanks trying running two tanks instead. The 25-man version requires you to have four tanked ads meaning that at some point one tank would have to tank at least two ads. The extra DPS gained means bursting through this encounter easier without meeting the gear requirements. My guild's first kill almost everyone but me was terribly undergeared, we used one tank (myself) I rounded up all the ads and had people assist off me and watch threat on other ads.
2. Pre-assign a discs order for P2. You want to load up as many ranged as possible on this fight but make sure to bring your highest DPS regardless. In 25-man we have all casters try and DPS the Scions while melee kill the Lords. Melee go up one at a time in the set order... its a big list. If you have to choose between a prot warrior going up and a caster you should probably choose the prot warrior the extra sunders added to the scions will help hunters on the groud and melee in the sky.
3. In phase three have everyone stack on one set location. I know a lot of strats suggest splitting up groups but if you feel you have 25 competent players they just move right to avoid the AOE dmg, shield themselves from his instagib, and spam their healing/dps buttons. We use three healers total for this phase freeing up 4 more people to DPS. If everyone is stacked properly lifeburst heals everyone and there's never a need for any excessive amount of healers.

If after this you still can't beat the enrage timer get your lowest dpsers out doing heroics OR look at your debuffs/buffs list and make sure you have them all.

Anybody knows what is event fires when Malygos fixing eyes on me?

Comentario de carldudut

ok peeps this is my secret how to heal in malygos as holy paladin! =)

note: you need Glyph of Holy Light

First Phase

Heal normal until you got Vortex for some duration. At this time chuck your Beacon of Light on the tank then Holy Shock yourself! If you do it quick enough you could chuck 2x Holy Shock at that air phase. While wait for your Holy Shock cooldown which is 6 seconds, target Malygos and chuck Judgement of Light. After Vortex finish all of your raid member will be fall in the same spot or aka stack up. At this time as soon as possible use Holy Light on yourself (is compulsory to have Glyph of Holy Light). Depending on your haste, how many holy light you can use as soon possible before people spread out. Myself can throw 2 Holy Light.

Second Phase

At this phase I recommended you to chuck yourself Sacred Shield before change to other orb/bubble/shield half egg or wateva you call it =P, the rest is the same you always do normally as healer. Which is you need to run to other orb/bubble/half egg thingy when it spawn a new one.

Third Phase

This phase basically focus on using your drake really well. You could do the Wyrmrest Dailies in Coldara which helps a lot on the fight. Usually raid stack up together when this phase come out so when they all on drake, they will be all stack up and you can follow them if you don't know what to do.

I'll share more tips and guide if I could find more =] have a nice day and safe trip for your Malygos fight

Malygos seems to be the only dragon whose "wing-skin" reaches down the tail.

Edit: I stand corrected. Cyanigosa and Azuregos also has it, as Drunkard says!

Tips for 10man Malygos
This boss proved a lot more difficult than I believed due to the usual "he's cakewalk" comments...

My guild wiped for 3 days before finally downing him on the 3rd.

This was on 10man. I am told 25man is easier.

Here's a few suggestions for anyone who might be stuck.

Phase 1:

-Hits the MT for 11-9k dmg per swing. Melee swing is slow.
-Arcane Breath brings up a huge damage spike and is the potential tank killer. Let your healers be aware.
-The "gear requirement" in this fight is NOT a joke. Even with combined spark buffs, we downed him 5 secs after enrage.

Our raid setup was: 1 tank (me, 30.6k hp unbuffed prot warrior, all 80 epics except for trinkets), 2 healers (CoH priest and resto druid, both over 2k spellpower and huge mp5), and 7 dps (all tried and tested in other raids, well over 3k constant dps).

Have the entire raid stack on the very middle of the area, while the tank brings Malygos to the edge of the inner ring, right where the outer ring starts.

The tank needs to be completely aware of his surroundings to see where sparks come from. When a spark spawns, he needs to kite Malygos around the edge of the inner ring (just follow the line, it's simple) to position him so that the raid is between him and the spark. Assign a ranged dps to bring the spark to 20%-50% and burst it down when it's on top of the raid.

2 Sparks will come between each Vortex. One right after and one while you fight.

While the raid is in the Vortex, locate any incoming sparks, and have the tank position Malygos immediatly after everyone lands. If done correctly, the raid just has to run to the center after each votex.
-----------------------------------------
On phase 2:

The tank takes both Nexus Lords. ALL dps nuke these down first. Don't split the dps, as you need to take the Lords out of the fight asap to reduce the raid's damage intake. The only exceptions are the hunters, who should only attack the Scions on the disks if they can't attack the Nexus Lord due to minimum range.

If you're a prot warrior, Improved Spell Reflect will save your raid member's life when running from one anti-magic zone to the next, as you will reflect the Scion's spells. Also useful to help out the healers. Use it on EVERY cooldown if possible, time it so you have it available when people run from bubble to bubble.
-----------------------------------------
On phase 3:

All has been pretty much said. Just keep an eye out for the lightning clouds (you'll see Malygos shoot a spark at the grp), stay grouped up, and keep the DoT up.

Phase 1 is the most difficult to get through, as you have to do itas fast as possible and keep *everyone* alive.

Hope this helped

Comentario de Taleron

A quick note to Prot Warriors out there, but you may want to watch out for your spell reflect and party reflect skills on this fight in phase 2. It can be really handy, but it could prove dangerous too:

On one of our attempts, our MT for the group had party reflect up to protect against the Scions' Arcane Barrage attacks. Unfortunately, I noticed that my SCT popped up a "Reflect" message, and... no new bubble landed for us. We had to resort to huddling the whole raid inside a space the size of a shoebox until we got another one.

My assumption is that the protection bubble that Malygos fired came close enough that if it landed, it would've triggered the knockback effect that they have when they expand, and that caused the bubble spell to be reflected. It's not a horrible thing as long as you have some kind of bubble to stay in, but if the already existing ones are getting pretty small you could end up in real trouble by having a reflect up at a bad moment.

This might be a little off-topic but i have to add that the animation of the ground splitting was a cool idea on blizzards part, same with the flying discs that the DPS use in the air.

When you get the fight down, it's extremely fun.

Comentario de 171643

killed him yesterday, from a resto druid pov (10-man)

phase 1 healing is pretty straightforward:
start putting lifeblooms on raid when he starts the animation for cyclones, u can use instants even during it so its really easy, wildgrowth was hitting only 2 ppl while in air, use it after the raid lands, tank healing is easy too, just make sure he is topped before malygos does its breath

phase 2 is a bit frustating:
the problem with phase 2 is the random targeting of the scion of eternity ability, when the raid is changing spot and is vulnerable, if someone is unlucky and get hit 2 times in a very short time he is likely to kiss the floor, it is imperative that u react very fast and keep everyone topped off
innervate before it starts, u want full mana and u dont need it for phase 3
make use of Nourish ! i am a big fan of glyphed Regrowth but i learned that during this phase the shorter cast time of Nourish helps a lot
during power surges wild growth works a blast, when 3.0.8 lands u should preemptively cast lifeblooms as it will have a 6s cooldown, also Tranquillity will negate power surge, keep it for when u want some relief

phase 3 as others have already said Revivify yourself to 5 and use Life Burst, its easy enough and effective

hope it helps

After about 3 hours of wipeing, we finally killed him last night. In phase 2 we kept the melee dps to kill the mobs on the ground, while the ranged dps took the disks and killed the ranged mobs.

Hunters might want to sit out for this fight. I've had nothing but trouble in the repeated attempts at this fight. During repeated clears of Naxx10 and other raid content in LK, I've almost always been 1st or 2nd dps, but Malygos really requires close quarters dps, which a hunter isn't capable of providing. Coupled with the fact that hunter pets have a bad habit of glitching after the first vortex, you become almost useless as far as DPS is concerned. Keeping yourself in range for sparks is equally as hard because of its rather large hit box.

Basically, if you're a hunter, you better hope the rest of your raid can make up for your severely stunted dps.

Hopefully blizz realizes that pets glitch and the spark radius is crap and hunters get a bit of a help out here sometime.

Comentario de 90927

Think I was quite thorough with the comments above, and couldn't see anything on this. Has anyone encountered difficulties on using your fire shield? On two separate encounters I remember that it did not activate despite having at least 2-3 combo points and Malygos targeted. At first I thought I had too little energy, but the 2nd time I made sure I had enough. Has anyone else come across this?

Comentario de 137927

First to people who have trouble with the fire shield:
If you target Malygos during the transition from Phase 2 to Phase 3 you must untarget him once you get on your drake or Fire Shield will not cast. Not sure if that's being fixed in the next patch or not, but it's an easy enough thing to get by.

Second to the locks doing this raid:
You can use your Teleport, rogues can use Killing Spree and Shadowstep *I think those are there two,* to get out of the vortex and avoid taking damage.
Also, during the transition from Phase 2 to 3 make sure to cast Curse of the Elements on Malygos. It's the only thing that will last the entire fight and adds 10%, 13% if specced, more damage for everyone. Once you get those 15 stacks up and you're doing 28k ticks you'll be glad it's up. :-)

Edit: One last thing for casters. If all of the Melee have a disk and there's still extra disks left over in Phase 2, feel free to get on one. You can cast while moving around and avoid the breath. :-)

Comentario de Mahtamori

I hate giving second hand information, but apparently the encounter has been changed to prevent multiple sparks, possibly even increasing the range at which the sparks are swallowed. The change has also lead to an increase in the timer in the associated achievement, so that it's more doable.
I'm writing this on patch day (eu), so feel free to down-rate my post and confirm whether this is accurate or not.

Comentario de TheSteelPhantom

As of 3.0.8, you can no longer place Curse of Elements on Malygos at the beginning of Phase 3 (when the platform breaks and knocks you upward a bit). So for anyone who used to do this... well, you can't anymore. Malygos is not targettable in Phase 3 until after the red drakes catch you and he's done with his Yell emote.

Comentario de Martacus

FOR ALL YOU OLD SCHOOL PLAYERS AND LORE LOVERS OUT THERE.
(old school being able to remeber when stratholme was a 10 man instance or when arcane explotion used to have a casting time!)

It may just be me or does anyone agree with me that Malygos is totaly lacking originailty and the old school raiding spirit? I meen comon guys, think back to Blackwing Lair and AQ 40 ect. How does Malygos compare to bosses Pre- TBC? Would you not rather be dodging C'thuns Eye beam lazas than doing a Boss Which has the same moves as a Daily qest mob? And dont you miss the time when you had to actualy get off your ass and do something to get some epixs. not just /2 LFG Naxx 10 man! or nolifing all day in heroics saving up badges to trade in. Now its allways gear before skills, cos half the bosses post TBC dont require any require any of the skill that was a nescesaty back in the days of 40 man raids.GIEF MOLTEN CORE IN FULL 52 BLUES AGAIN PLZ!

AND. for all you lore lovers out there (like me) , did'nt you share the dissapointment, knowing that malygos, Aspect of magic and a highly decorated character in the lore, could only spin the raid around, summon mages to do his work, and shoot a few beams wich are absorbed by a dragon wich he would have killed in an instant in the books and lore? or how simple it is to just /LFG and kill Malygos. Surly, blizzard, you can think of a more exciting,memorable fight for one of the 5 dragon aspects!
I meen , look at kalecgos in the sunwell for instance. Malygos is his Ruler and yet, kalecgos has a far more complicated stratagy, and I for one loved fighting him and killing that bastard of a deamon in him!

So , is there anyone else out there who misses the pre TBC days ? :<
Or have we all sunk into Welfare loot, PuG raids and ...Dailies.

P.S and PLEASE dont downrate this comment if you have never had the joy of being in a 40 man raid or if you dont give a #$%^ about warcraft lore. let others have theyr say!

Martacus out! /mourn old school!

Tip for Death Knights here

Always pop Anti-magic shell when you're sucked up in Vortex. Not only will this negate a MASSIVE chunk of damage for your healers it will supply you with mass amounts of Runic Power. Not sure on the exact numbers, but I think I was able to throw out a Death Coil every tick of Vortex which, in a DPS race boss, is pretty good.

So I guesss this message is basically saying "Know your class abilities!" :)

Comentario de kenn213

Just a quick note for people having issues post 3.0.8: If your raid keeps dying for no aparent reason there is a bug with pets getting the debuff and hitting the raid. Try dismissing all pets, worked tonight for my guild after a few unexplained wipes.

Comentario de 255841

The guild my friend is in has a strange strategy for Phase 1. I've tried to convince him that it is purely luck that it works, but I'd like confirmation on that.

They say, standing in a spark will prevent you from getting hit by his Arcane Breath.

I'm 100% sure that i've taken damage from it while on the spark, but he says that he never has. This isn't something I'd like to actually test. So hopefully, somebody could clear this up for me.

Thanks.

Comentario de 308293

I agree with kenn123 . We had same issue , pets took the debuff and they had kill the raid . even if you control them and make them follow you after landing cant stop them from wiping the raid . dismiss them and use them in phase 2 , Unfortunately this is a bug for sure

for phase 3 our guild runs a every man for himself kinda thing, in which u keep ur own health up and u dps the boss, so exactley the same as the aces high quest/daily and it works really well altho its only 10 man we've been able to clear him on cant quite get to phase 3 fast enuff atm, if any 1 would like to try every man for himself on 25 to see if it works and then tell me it would be appreciated

Comentario de Keranna

Pets no longer seem to be bugged during vortex - I've noticed that mine despawns when we're all up in the air, and then comes back out right as I land. No issues with him sticking anymore, which is great.

And CoH/WG not being castable in the Vortex has been confirmed as a bug.

We identified a bug preventing Circle of Healing and Wild Growth from being able to find targets in Vortex. It was not our intent that these heals be prevented during Vortex (beyond the nerf we already made to prevent them from being spammed).

We should be able to fix this in the next couple of days.

Has anyone else noticed that you're able in some cases to zone into the fight during phase 3? I've been able to reproduce it sometimes and think that you either have to release during phase 3 or re-enter as a ghost during phase 3 (releasing and re-entering during phase 2 gives you back your body and makes you unable to zone in until malygos is killed or despawns). I got a drake right as he despawned earlier tonight and managed to fight him in phase 1 on it, doing a whopping 13.5k dps with double-stacked ticks of 20+ stacks of the dot hitting for around 100k.

Comentario de Tripix

There are many confuses about this spell. While fighting with Malygos best way to deal with healing is assign two players on normal and four or five for heroic for AoE heals only. Easiest way to heal is keeping 5 stacks of Revivify on themselfs, stack 5 combo points (by spamming Revivify on self) and then cast Life Burst.

About Life Burst:

It doesn't heal over time, it is just a one big AoE heal.
The more combo points you stack the bigger heal is.
The more combo points you stack the 50% healing buff last longer.
50% healing buff work for both - Life Burst and Revivify

It's good, but not essentially if dps dragons try to hold 1-2 (or more) stacks of Revivify. And most major issue is to all drakes stay close to themselfs. They should stay in one big group, and when Malygos cast AoE spell they should all move a bit. Good way to have proper position is to stick to clock hours (12 - 9 - 6 - 3 etc).

Comentario de 43530

Malygos is voiced by Cam Clarke, whom you may have noticed voices a few other characters in World of Warcraft as well... Namely the Last Guardian Medivh, and the Player Blood Elf Male voice.

Two noteworthy voice overs that this VA has done outside WoW would be Liquid Snake for the Metal Gear Solid Series... and also Prince Adam/He-man, which this game also makes a reference to with the AB Battlemaster Adam Eternum.

Comentario de leonheart87

Malygos is a strange fellow. Seeks to destroy all mortal life for fear they will use magic in a bad way, yet he allows his followers (the scions in phase 2, some in the Azure Dragonshrine) to use magic.

Unless they are another breed of elf, which hasn't lost it's immortality, he is going against everything he was fighting for. Maybe, he has so much power, he can give them immortality and they're just high/blood elves.

Wonder who will replace him as the ruler of the Blue Dragonflight, can't be many Blue Dragons left, we seem to kill alot of them. Wowwiki only lists 6 as being alive, with 1 whelp.

Comentario de 39022

Until patch 3.1 goes live https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/spell=53601#comments:id=673080 will still be extremely useful on the Malygos fight. Right before vortex I make sure to have Sacred Shield on everyone in the raid (10m version). It will proc 2x during the vortex for approx. a 4-5k dmg absorption to everyone. Combined with 2-4 heals available (2 holy shocks, 2 proc'd instant flash of lights) and using your beacon of light intelligently, a holy paladin is a great healer for malygos. I see many ppl claim that they are useless for that fight, well those ppl have no knowledge of the class. Flash of light can sometimes be forced to cast during the vortex if you can proc a boost of haste from trinkets such as https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=40685.

When 3.1 hits pally's will become very boring healers. Only being able to cast this on the tank will take away most of our strategy when raid healing other than beacon swapping and stacking everyone up for https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=41106. IMO in 3.1 they should reduce the mana cost of https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/spell=53563. This will bring the strategy back to healing as a paladin.

There seem to be a bug in the second phase, he seem to sometimes come down and start attacking the raid with melee.
This wiped us today, and I wonder. Do anyone know what triggers this, or why it happens?
Oh and you can't target him so tanking him threw this bug, or whatever you want to call it, is impossible.

*Edit* This happened twice, again, for no reason, Malygos comes down and start to melee everyone according to the threat list from the first phase... Hope this get fixed in the upcoming patch

From the 3.2 PTR Patch Notes:

Another relevant Lore character Blizzard kills, and if that wasn't enough, Malygos gets killed by Alexstraza and by 10 random adventurers... Same happened with Illidan Stormrage. If you check his lore, he battled Arthas, even if he was defeated, he still did, he became a demon, he was imprisioned for 10 thousand years, he battled an army of the Scourge along with Tyrande and his brother, and died when 25 guys decided going in his fortress (Black Temple) and kill him... I am just saying my opinion, I know this is going to be downrated though....

Comentario de agentex50

I really don't know why everyone says hunters are useless for Maly. i almost always pull 3.5k DPS at the least. Also, pet doesn't bug phase 1 but it DOES bug phase 2, which isn't a big deal as your targets are in midair. I've Pugged this 5 times to date. Problem with phase 3 is that many people aren't able to focus as much as you would expect, and end up sitting in sparks and dying. Granted this doesn't apply to guilds that are doing ToC 10man and so forth, but again not many guilds raiding that content go back and kill Maly. Still, if you can get the people for it, it can and should be an easy fight. Good luck to everyone going after this guy, it is very rewarding to see him go down!

Comentario de 439562

Trick: The sparks can be "pulled" to your DPS with Death Grip, so it advisable to have a pre-assigned stack location for your raid, and have a Death Knight pull the sparks to that spot. Once pulled they are rootable to keep them in place while you kill them.

From what I have heard, the sparks can no longer be deathgripped.

The Dragon Aspects don't have it easy. One goes insane and helps the legion, and the other one needs to be killed for some reason.

Comentario de 178494

Don't know why, but I've never seen any helpful macros for phase 3 of Malygos encounter. Maybe I have some weird interface/keybind setup, but casting shield on your own drake while moving can be a real pain, so providing that you're using some action bar addon you can setup an easy macro "/cast Flame Shield". That way you will never have to change target from Malygos. With the simple 1-1-2-3 rotation and that macro I went from dying upon second focus to top damage done every or almost every time I did the encounter so far.

Comentario de 258919

Even with people pulling under 3k DPS (and a couple people pulling well above that), the first two stages are cake in a 10-man raid. The only real worries are staying behind Malygos, killing the orbs and using their buffs for ranged DPSers (a DK helps a ton; grip+chains), and staying in the bubbles unless you're riding a disc.

The third stage, on the other hand, is more difficult. All of the healers should spam 333334. All of the DPS should spam 112 or 1112. However, classes must watch their energy conservation to make sure they have enough energy to pull off a shield, especially in 10m where there are fewer targets. All drakes must remain stacked and, when someone is targeted, the group should move left of that person until they are out of range of the AoE. The person who is targeted (DBM covers telling you who it is) should immediately build up 2 combo points and cast the shield. For 10m, we found it best to have a DPSer heal whilst on the drake.

Basically, phase 3 is passable by moving left (or right, left is what we chose) when someone is zapped, and spamming the above cycles. We managed to down him with about 7 out of 10 people still alive in the end.

Comentario de Darkomicron

I'd like to try and clarify this.
As the poster above stated correctly, each dragon was imbued by powers of a certain titan, They were later known as: Malygos the Spell-Weaver, Alexstrasza the Life-Binder, Ysera the Dreamer, Neltharion the Earth Warder and Nozdormu the Timeless One.
These 5 dragon aspects of each flight (blue, red, green, black and bronze, respectively with the order of the aspects named above) were the mightiest of their kind. Dragons are very 'close' so to say, they call each other brother and sister because they are equal to each other. Another term dragons might use is 'my brood'. This implies more than just a bond between two dragons, they actually have to be brother and/or sister as we use it, of the same clutch. (this is also shown in the War of the Ancients Trilogy)

If you want to know how Malygos became a prime evil, instead of one of the guardians of the world, read on.

**SPOILER IF YOU READ ON**
(War of the Ancients Trilogy)
.

.

.

.
In the World of Warcraft - War of the Ancients book series, you learn how Malygos became insane. In short, Neltharion got corrupted by a great evil (supposedly the Old Gods) he created 'the dragon soul' which later became known as the demon soul. The purpose of this Dragon Soul was to decimate the demonic army razing over Azeroth (This was at the time of the first invasion of the burning legion). Every dragon contributed his or her part into the Dragon Soul. However, the dragons didn't expect so see one of their mightiest turn on them, and Neltharion used the Dragon Soul to attack the races of Azeroth, trying to defend their home. Then he attacked the dragons with it. When he got distracted by an attack of a lonely dragon the blue dragon flight broke loose of his bounds and tried to contain Neltharion (later known as Deathwing (He'll be the new Cataclysm boss)) Neltharion, using the Demon Soul, decimated the Blue flight, and threw Malygos far over the horizon. Malygos became insane after seeing his flight decimated, it would take decennia to restore the blue dragon flight to it's former glory.

In my opinion it was stupid that they killed off Malygos, should have just had him brought back to reality and redeemed. Next expansion will see the return of Deathwing, and Malygos was Deathwing's closest friend before the pair of them went mad, would have been highly relevant to have Malygos participate in the battle against Deathwing.

There is a way to use Drakes from Phase 3 of the Malygos Raid encounter in Phase 1 & 2, which makes completing this achievement quite easy.

Fight Malygos on Drakes in Phase 1/2 - exploits are not allowed in game or permitted here. Admin
