Il'gynoth, Corruption Reborn
General Strat
- Encounter ends after 4 P1s.
- The boss flips between a boss phase where you dps him, kite adds, and manage Corruptor’s Gaze beam puddles until Il’gynoth reaches 0% and an Organ add phase where you dps one of the three big wall adds. These Organ adds need to be kicked to prevent them from spawning more Blood adds.
- This fight is all about room management. When you get fixated by beam you need to kite it in a tight circle to minimize the impact of all the puddles you drop.
- Players need to move away from Cursed Blood debuffed players with the big circles around them. In mythic these expand and shrink and need to be dispelled when small if possible.
- Blood adds need to be kited and killed. If the raid is low, wait a couple seconds to finish them off as they do minor raid damage.
- Some players will get mc’d during Touch of the Corruptor. Quickly dps them down to 30% to remove this and try to avoid full dotting them. If you are too close to these players, you will also become mind controlled. Pre-spread and root/stun any MCs that are headed towards other players.
- Avoid standing in front of the boss as he will fire a frontal cone: Eye of N’Zoth.
- In mythic, a Clotted Corruption add will spawn in phase 2 and need to be picked up. It will soak up any bloods that it charges through. This is likely bad but will see on live how bad.
Abilities
Phase 1 - The Corruptor, Reborn
- Eye of N’Zoth (Tank) - A beam from the eye in Il’gynoth’s chest blasts all enemies in front of him, inflicting 368k Shadow damage and increasing damage taken from Eye of N’Zoth by 75%, stacks.
- Touch of the Corruptor - Il’gynoth bends players to his will, charming them for 1min. During this time, players under his influence will attempt to spread the Touch of the Corruptor to other players. Reducing afflicted players to 30% health will remove this effect.
- Corruptor’s Gaze - The Corruptor’s ever-watching eyes creates beams of dark energy, following a targeted player and leaving a Morass of Corruption in its wake.
- Morass of Corruption - Inflicts 123k Shadow damage every 1s to any players within, as well as pacifying and silencing them.
- Blood of Ny’alotha - These globules of Ny’alotha’s blood spawn only from previously defeated Organs of Corruption while Il’gynoth is active.
- Fixate - Fixates on a target, attacking them to the exclusion of other targets.
- Hemorrhage - On death, Blood of Ny’alotha explodes in a spray of gore, inflicting 118k Shadow damage to all players.
- Recurring Nightmare (Dispellable) - Blood of Ny’alotha’s melee attacks leave behind lingering corruption in the target, inflicting 50k Shadow damage every 2s for 40s, stacks.
- Cursed Blood (Mythic Dispellable) - Il’gynoth inflicts a curse on players that grows and shrinks. When the curse reaches full size it inflicts a Cursed Pulse. When the curse is removed it explodes, causing a Cursebreak.
- Cursebreak (Mythic) - Upon removal, Cursed Blood explodes inflicting Shadow damage to all players based on the size of the curse.
- Cursed Pulse (Mythic) - Each time Cursed Blood reaches its maximum size, a pulse of 148k Shadow damage is inflicted to all players within 14 yards of the cursed player.
Phase 2 - The Organs of Corruption - 0% Boss Health
- Cursed Blood - Same as P1
- Organ of Corruption - Three Organs of Corruption spawn around the arena. Defeating one ends this stage, reviving Il’gynoth with restored health.
- Pumping Blood (Interruptible) - Organs of corruption pump the blood of Ny’alotha through their valves. When their energy is full a new Blood of Ny’alotha will spawn.
- Blood of Ny’alotha - Same as P1
- Clotted Corruption (Tank Mythic) - When Il’gynoth submerges and his organs are revealed, a deadly Clotted Corruption forms. Capable of absorbing the Blood of Ny’alotha, this mass of plasma can quickly grow out of control.
- Absorbing Charge (Mythic) - Charges forward, inflicting 100? Physical damage to enemies in a line and absorbing Blood of Ny’alotha into itself.
- Reconstituted Blood (Mythic) - Combining with the blood of Ny’alotha, the caster increases all damage dealt by 10%, stacks.
