YOU FACE NARAXAS, INSECTOID BOSS OF THE LEGION EXPANSION!
'Trifling Drogbar! Your arrogance shall be your undoing!"
Massive aoe here! The most important part of this fight is to run away while she is casting Spiked Tongue. Her poison debuff can be dispelled and dispel should be saved for your tank, as they can get two different types of poison (so far, this may change from beta).
When you have a circle at your feet, try to get far from each other to drop your poison pools and get out of them immediately. Group will be consistently taking damage throughout the fight and make sure to kill adds as they spawn. They have very little health.
"Hey, guys, we need another boss for this dungeon. What do you think?"
"Let's just throw in another of those worm-things."
"Don't you think the players will notice that we've been using basically the same worm-things as random bosses in literally every expansion, every time we're stuck for a boss?"
Avoid Зловонная пасть. He will create acid areas in melee zone Токсичная желчь so avoid it, boss hit box is large so you can stand pretty far away from him and still do damage. When tank gets targeted by Шипастый язык and runs away melee should watch out because when the cast ends and the tank not in the melee zone yet the boss will start killing melee. Kill Преданный червепоклонник because they can be eaten by boss - he get's Хищность buff.
Преданный червепоклонник Kill! Can be eaten with Шипастый язык. Самопожертвование фанатика, Каменный снаряд Consume my blood for power!
Don't just drop down, glide straight ahead - there is a treasure chest there in a small cave!
Tanking as a Brewmaster, I've gotten the impression that I can "stick" to the barrier at the entry to the arena for spiked tongue.
Using the puddles on the ground was news to me (... silly me). I've just been rolling away and using Transcendence, but if I manage to get to the barrier and run towards it, I've never been dragged backwards.
I don't know if this is intentional, or if I've happened to have my movement speed boosted right at that moment from an external source. Has happened with three different groups so far.
Not to be confused with Нараксис.
Just solo'd this guy on heroic as a mistweaver monk from 100%-0%. I supposedly didn't hit the record button before starting but it has the little ending part when I killed it. I did the other 2 as brewmaster and solo'd those also. However I cannot solo the last boss yet. Magma sculptures kill. I will try another day. I do think I have world first Naraxas solo though. Nothing else online about anyone else soloing it, if they did, grats. But I have legit proof I will be uploading soon of world first solo.
It's actually really simple, hot yourself, don 't kill adds and put Transcendence behind the eggs closest to the barrier blocking you from leaving. He will not pull you, and the damage from the Ravenous after the drogbars are eaten do not affect his ranged abilities. I was at 18 stacks when I finished him, so that was 900% increased dmg. It was all doing about the same to me. It was actually easier then soloing the other bosses. There doesn't seem to be a berserk timer so all you gotta do is hit chi burst every now and then, and Crackling jade lightning him to death!
I will be doing this fight again recorded sometime for actual video proof since I supposedly didn't hit record.
If you are wondering like me why so many people would leave party after this boss: They were only farming reputation with Племена Крутогорья.
