[00:00] the Soulcoiler fight in The Venomous&nbsp; Abyss on Normal and Heroic difficulty. The golden rule of this fight is to stop&nbsp; and kill the adds before they get to the&nbsp;&nbsp;
[00:12] middle. They’re gonna keep trying, so you&nbsp; gotta keep stopping them. Any adds that&nbsp;&nbsp; do make it give the boss energy and stack up&nbsp; raid damage, which can get ugly really fast. Posession Barrage is our fancy tank mechanic-&nbsp; it channels spirits at the target which do raid&nbsp;&nbsp;
[00:27] damage when they hit. That damage is reduced&nbsp; dramatically by the distance they travelled,&nbsp;&nbsp; so get away from the boss and&nbsp; make those spirits walk to you. Nek’zali also stacks up Hollowing Strikes on&nbsp; her current tank which does healing reduction,&nbsp;&nbsp;
[00:41] Soulcoil Rite does strong raid damage,it’s&nbsp; good spot for a healer cooldown. Do Watch&nbsp;&nbsp; your feet during this, these rings will&nbsp; kick you back and hurt if you get hit.
[00:53] Essence Rend picks a handful of players&nbsp; and marks them with magic debuffs,&nbsp;&nbsp; which drop puddles when removed. Run out&nbsp; of the way to drop your puddle. Healers&nbsp;&nbsp; can dispel players when they’re out&nbsp; of the group, and ideally not earlier.
[01:07] Restless Amani are those adds that really&nbsp; want to get to the soulwell in the middle.&nbsp;&nbsp; You can see where they’ll come from based&nbsp; on the lit up coffins. DPS them to break&nbsp;&nbsp; their shields which also stops their march,&nbsp; group em up and kill them. Grips are good,&nbsp;&nbsp;
[01:22] use whatever slows and CC you have, just&nbsp; don’t let them make it to the soulwell. At half health, the boss becomes immune&nbsp; and it’s intermission time. Make your&nbsp;&nbsp; way around the room defeating the big&nbsp; Echo of Jawae adds to end the phase.
[01:36] As you’re fighting an Echo, it’ll&nbsp; cast a big fire soak. On Normal,&nbsp;&nbsp; Get everyone in that, since you’ll take special&nbsp; extra damage if you don’t soak with the class. Restless Amani are still waking up and making&nbsp; a break for the middle, keep on top of those.
[01:50] When all the Echoes are dead, we’re into Phase&nbsp; Two. There’s going to be increasing raid damage&nbsp;&nbsp; until the fight ends, so a real race to the finish&nbsp; here. All of our phase one mechanics are back. is that now and then she’ll make some of&nbsp; the puddles we dropped earlier just zip&nbsp;&nbsp;
[02:07] around the room. That can mow you right down&nbsp; if you’re not looking, so keep your eyes open. On Normal, that’s it. On Heroic, we&nbsp; get a few new things to deal with. Soulcoil Rite, which happens naturally throughout&nbsp; the fight and extra if adds hit the middle,&nbsp;&nbsp;
[02:23] gains a stacking, one minute debuff. If&nbsp; adds keep slipping through your ranks,&nbsp;&nbsp; you could easily stack and extend&nbsp; this until the regular Rite damage&nbsp;&nbsp; is absolutely frying you. All you&nbsp; gotta do is stay on top of adds.
[02:38] Speaking of the adds, on heroic killed Raised&nbsp; Amani now stick around as little corpse piles&nbsp;&nbsp; after they die. We’re going to need to get&nbsp; rid of those, which we do in intermission. In the Heroic intermission, both the soak and&nbsp; the ring you get for staying OUT of the group&nbsp;&nbsp;
[02:52] soak can now burn up corpse piles. Some of&nbsp; the raid still needs to be in the big soak,&nbsp;&nbsp; but a few people should stay out and go burn&nbsp; corpse piles with their little rings. The&nbsp;&nbsp; more grouped up they were, the easier this&nbsp; will be.. Any piles not burned at the end&nbsp;&nbsp;
[03:08] of the intermission will revive into new&nbsp; adds, so clean it up as best as you can. I’ve got more raid guides if you want ‘em&nbsp; and have a wonderful, wonderful day. Bye!
