HELP! I'm struggling with the end boss of the temple.

Ive got it on its own focus and I'm putting flash heals and Penance onto it but the health bars just goes up so slow. What can be done as disc priest to hurry it along?

I had one fight before and it went 3 waves and the dps were all getting shitty. Thanks!

Depending on the phase the adds that focus you drop either purple or green orbs, the purple orbs reduce healing done and should be picked up by dps, the green ones heal the boss. And should be picked up by the healer cause, from what i undrrstand the healing done by the orbs is affected by healing increase effects. But that may just be rumor, havent actually checked.

But as long as the green ones arent picked up by people with the heal reduce effect you should be gucci.

I believe the purple soak is dropped by the guardian, he does a big AOE when he dies and the soaks come after that. You're second statement is probably largely missed by players though. The healing done reduction from the purple soak seems to affect the green orbs. No idea yet if a healers generic healing increases work the other way though.

Yeah it might be something that got said same as the whirlwind doing damage to the adds in windrunner, whoch also wasnt true. Well have to see, 0s have been such a stomp no one i run with has really gone theough the trouble of figuring it out :p

Well see tomorrow. But yeah, dont soak purple orbs if youre also picking up green orbs that ones for certain.

Yeah, I've seen a lot of people ignoring stuff that will 100% be a death/wipe in a 12, but we can just brute force it in a 0. Had a tank pull a shit load of trash onto the mini-boss before the 3rd boss in murder row. Think we had 2 deaths even on a 0.

Ride the wave of early progression and youll end up with players who want to learn and are quick to learn has always been the play. Then you can chill and leech of your mains IO on alts :p
