The party suffers damage over time for the entire intermission that the Healer needs to be ready for.

A small pushback effect is placed on the party.

The boss casts multiple Fire Breath cones, with the first frontal cone pointed at the Tank and each subsequent frontal cone rotating counterclockwise.

Previously placed Ignited Ember lava pools spawn Flaming Twisters that players must dodge.

Emberwing Intermission Strategy

A few seconds before Burning Gale starts casting, the Tank will want to position themself to bait the first Fire Breath away from other players.

Based on where the Tank is positioned, other players will want to stand to the left of the Tank. Because the Fire Breaths rotate counterclockwise, positioning yourself this way gives you the longest time before you have to dodge a Fire Breath.

Watch your feet for any stray Flaming Twisters that spawn during the intermission. These spawn from the Ignited Embers lava pools.

If needed, use a defensive, Healthstone, or Health Potion to keep yourself alive from the DoT effect.

Comment by Dutchy007I was hoping to read/see some kind of secret tech to make this boss easier. Guess you just have to play it and handle it yourself lol. This article should have been put out at the beginning of the expansion, not now.Comment by RickyppI was really hoping they'd mention dragging the boss to the outer edge so melee can drop fire puddles and keep uptime.Comment by Mossysnailthe only thing that kind of bothers me with this fight, is the fire breath not being that great visually. they should have made it a little bit easier to see.Comment by PrimalcruxLaughs in Shimmer. Mages always winning.Comment by MentallyMatureI hope they dobnt m ake classic + raids like retail, slop mechanicsComment by JustJudethe only thing that kind of bothers me with this fight, is the fire breath not being that great visually. they should have made it a little bit easier to see.Comment by BorgothMaybe we could get an article that tells people to drop their dot as quickly as possible on the last boss, so that healer doesn't have to push over 100k hps to keep them alive? I'm referring to taking a jump trap as soon as they spawn (so the dot goes away), then another jump trap later to avoid the circle hit. Try it sometime.
