    • During the fight more and more add a vulcanic fragmentation (non-agro, non-targetable) are coming out of the lave and then become agro.
      If you defeat a vulcanic fragmentation it splitts into 2 blezing fragments (non-agro!).

        Searing Storm is casted by spawning twisted flames. Defeat the asap to reduce damage output of the Searing Storm effects...and don't forget to permacure the MT and - maybe - the ohter incorrigible melee-fighters, too...
        Suggested Range-fight as only tank must stand at the named and permacured cause of the Searing Storm. The other party-members stand more then 10m away if they can not prevent area-effects.

      • Unyielding Onslaught II (Epic) (DOTs & Powerdrain over time): Uncureable curse every raid-member gets with start of the encounter.
      • Shreed Needles (-20.000% pot; piercing DOT, DOT-damage based on distance to Onakoome (Epic); DOT-damage increasing over time): If the raid is cursed the farest away player must be cured to cure the whole (!) raid.
        Effect ShredNeedles

        Shred Needles effect

      • Ascension Deflection (specific ascension damage immunity): As long as adds (plural!) are spawnd/not defeated Onakoome (Epic) will have the for each Ascension-Class the according effect: Onakoome (Epic) become immune to spells of that according Ascension-Classes and makes AE-damage to that according Ascension-Classes.
        Effect AscensionDeflection geomancer

        Ascension Delection here geomancer-version) effect

    • That Ascension-Adds spawn during the fight at ( -147, -368, -287 ) Copy inside that pavilion.
      Onakoome pavilion

      Pavilion inside which the the asendension adds will spawn.

    • If 4 Ascension-Adds are there, the raids is wiped.
    • Every type of Ascension-Class is required for this fight in your raidforce as peridically an add spawns at ( -147, -368, -287 ) Copy with the effect Ascension Shield on it.

You must hit this add [information needed]-times with the according Ascension-Class sothat the add will become visible and attackable for all raid-members. Then it also starts to move.
      Note: One of each class is enough as the count of hits makes the add visible.
  4. Defeat Galadoon (Epic) at [information needed] (9th encounter)
  • Hp: 200.9 trillion Mitigation: 142,982
  • Effects:
    • Obsidian Guard II (Epic) (Resolve 3740 etc)
    • Obsidian Defense (Epic) (first 30 attacks ignored etc.)
    • Mortal Coil II (Epic) (Deathcount 24 etc.): Starts with the beginning of the encounter.
  • Detrimentals etc.
    • Unyielding Onslaught II (DOTs & Powerdrain over time): Uncureable curse every raid-member gets with start of the encounter.
    • Between a Rock and a Hot Place (DOT & Powerdrain): This detriment is applied to someone in the raid, who will get a Narrative message saying "You start to heat up!". The damage and power drain increases every four seconds until a tick instantly kills you. Dying doesn't remove the detriment, but does reset the amount of damage it is doing. Removing this detriment requires doing a set of steps related to the groups of three "a magma rocks" that spawn during the fight. They will all have a "<cooled>" buff/state on them when they spawn, which can be removed using a dispel that can affect elemental buffs (druid/shaman dispel, or use a Veilwalker's Energy Inverter). After this has been dispelled, attack the rocks with heat damage attacks until the rocks get a "Heated" buff on them - you can use Flames of Yore to change your non-melee attacks to heat damage to make more of your raid force able to do this. Once all three rocks are heated, the person with the "Between a Rock and a Hot Place" detriment on them can walk in the middle of the three rocks and the detriment will be removed. Note that the individual rocks will start cooling down on a 20s timer after they are heated, but doing any further heat damage to them will reset the timer back to 20s. Pro tip: Someone with AoE spells they can cast every 5-15s while having the Flames of Yore buff can keep the rocks constantly heated, making this part of the fight much easier to handle.
  • Slag Driving (damage immunity; AE crushing DOT and AE Powerdrain etc.): During the fight Galadoon (Epic) can start rotating his chest and gets the effect Slag Driving and becomes rooted. To interupt it you have to defeat one add a slag fiend next to Galadoon (Epic).
  • During the fight Galdoon (Epic) casts Slag Driving, becomes rooted, immune to damage and starts to rotate his chest. This is accompanied by a message from the boss of "Spin! Right round! Round! Round!". To interupt it you have to
    1. bring add [information needed] down to 30% health and then
    2. charm it and then
    3. send it to Galdoon (Epic) and then
    4. defeat it next to Galdoon (Epic).
  • During the fight one of your group is ported into one of the cages. An other person of your group becomes cursed and get the massage "you are the key". That person has to stand very near to the cage in which the other groupmember is caught. Then you cure the curse and both are freeed...one of the curse, the other of the cage.
    Warning: Cured not next to the cage or last to long to find the correct cage: both dead...
  1. By now the trash-mobs have the effect Unified Force III. 2 Groups of trash can wipe the raidforce. So slow down your "move" to the next named a little.

          Note: Further in fight in every red circle one person has to stand to make the flying carpets visible and usable (see also 2.phase)

    • During the fight 1 raid-member get cursed and an other get the message, that only you can cure your raid-buddy. At the moment it looks like, that anybody can cure the cursed without any impact...[has to be verified! Is it a differenct effect then the controll-switch-detrimental?]
