Midnight Season 1 Dungeon Guides for M+

[00:00] With the first season of Midnight just

[00:01] one week away, now is the perfect time

[00:03] to learn the mechanics of each dungeon

[00:05] to get a head start for when Mythic Plus

[00:06] releases. In this video, I will be going

[00:08] over bosses, important trash, when to

[00:10] use defensives, healing cooldowns, and

[00:12] generally what packs to pull and avoid.

[00:14] I go over the four new dungeons that

[00:16] will be a part of the rotation in season

[00:17] one, those being Magisters' Terrace, My

[00:20] Saurids' Caverns, Nexus-Point Zenith,

[00:22] and Windrunner's Spire.

[00:24] Starting off with Magisters' Terrace, we

[00:26] have a nifty new dungeon based in

[00:27] Silvermoon City. The first pull in

[00:29] Terrace notably has two Arcane

[00:31] Magisters, which are adds that reoccur

[00:33] throughout the whole dungeon. Magisters

[00:34] will cast Polymorph on a random target.

[00:36] So, this needs to be interrupted and

[00:38] focused down, or the dungeon might be

[00:39] over before it begins. You'll also be

[00:41] facing an Arcane Sentry, which will cast

[00:43] three notable spells. Arcane Beam is a

[00:46] channeled laser that will follow the

[00:47] target player and leave behind pools.

[00:49] Ethereal Shackles is a channeled tank

[00:51] buster that also roots. And lastly, they

[00:53] have Crowd Dispersal, which is a

[00:54] knockback which I'll talk about later.

[00:57] In the library maze, there is a tome

[00:59] that provides the group 5% haste for 30

[01:01] minutes. So, make sure to pick that up

[01:03] since it should last the whole dungeon,

[01:04] hopefully. Avoid librarians, which is

[01:06] just good advice in general, and make

[01:08] your way to the first of many

[01:09] pyromancers. Try not to pull this guy

[01:11] until the full group is through the maze

[01:13] and until all the animated codex are

[01:14] killed. These adds will cast ignition, a

[01:17] permanent rot damage dot, while also

[01:18] throwing out pyroblasts that are one

[01:20] shots. So, make sure not to miss these

[01:22] kicks.

[01:23] In this next area, be hyper aware that

[01:25] there are more Arcane Sentries that will

[01:26] use Crowd Dispersal, which like I said,

[01:28] knocks players back a fair amount, and

[01:30] you can accidentally back pull if not

[01:31] careful. Additionally, Sunblade

[01:33] Enforcers will gain Arcane Blade,

[01:35] dealing massive tank damage that should

[01:36] be purged if possible.

[01:39] Before Arcanotron Custos, the first

[01:41] boss, there are these Spellwoven

[01:43] Familiars that burst on death,

[01:44] increasing damage of nearby enemies and

[01:46] dealing AoE damage. This is especially

[01:48] dangerous with the nearby pyromancers.

[01:51] Speaking of Arcanotron Custos, we are

[01:53] now onto the first boss. He will cast

[01:55] the same knockback as the Sentries, but

[01:57] also leave a pool of arcane damage. Make

[02:00] sure to tank him in a corner to spread

[02:01] as little of this as possible. This also

[02:03] allows you to negate the tank buster

[02:04] knockback. He starts at 100 energy that

[02:07] drains until it hits zero, at which

[02:08] point he will stand still sucking orbs

[02:10] closer to him which deal massive AoE

[02:11] damage if he touches them. Collecting

[02:13] orbs will do increasingly more damage,

[02:15] so use immunities and defensives to grab

[02:17] as many as possible without offing

[02:18] yourself by accident. Collecting these

[02:20] orbs will also drop small pools, so be

[02:22] aware of crowding the area too much.

[02:24] During this intermission, the boss takes

[02:26] 20% more damage and the first

[02:27] intermission happens about 50 seconds

[02:29] into the fight and every 50 seconds

[02:31] afterwards, so plan cool downs

[02:32] accordingly.

[02:34] The section after the first boss notably

[02:36] has a new add, rune spellbreakers, which

[02:38] will cast a cleave frontal that easily

[02:40] topples DPS or healers, so be careful

[02:42] not to get hit by this and tanks try and

[02:44] face them towards the wall. They also

[02:45] leave nasty dots from runic cleave which

[02:47] does a little bit of splash damage, so

[02:49] pre-spread a bit. After going through a

[02:51] few familiar faces, you're on to Saranal

[02:54] Sunslash, the second boss. The mechanics

[02:56] of this boss mainly revolve around

[02:58] suppression zone, an AMZ looking ground

[03:00] effect that silences players within. Two

[03:02] players will be hit with runic mark and

[03:04] need to remove this dot by stepping into

[03:06] the zone. When removed, it will deal

[03:08] massive group-wide damage, so they

[03:10] should be staggered. Wave of silence is

[03:12] a long cast that will one-shot players

[03:14] outside of the suppression zone when it

[03:15] resolves, so make sure to be in the zone

[03:17] a few moments before the cast goes off.

[03:19] After this boss, channel the table above

[03:21] him and start making your way back

[03:22] through the dungeon.

[03:24] The second half of the dungeon

[03:25] introduces entirely new add packs with

[03:27] the most notable enemy being void

[03:29] terrors who will cast terror wave, a

[03:31] mass fear that will almost always lead

[03:33] to a wipe if it resolves.

[03:35] No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Wait, wait,

[03:37] wait wait.

[03:38] Wait, wait, wait, [screaming] wait,

[03:39] wait. They also put out consuming void

[03:41] debuffs. These guys are prio CC, kick,

[03:44] and kill targets. Shadow rift void

[03:46] callers will spawn adds and deal massive

[03:48] AoE damage with consuming shadows. This

[03:50] ability can be LoS'd, so if you want,

[03:52] you can take him in a corner so your

[03:53] group can hide.

[03:55] The last big add in this area is the

[03:56] Devouring Tyrants, which have a massive

[03:58] heal absorb tank buster. They also throw

[04:00] out void bombs that deal AoE damage

[04:02] around chosen players, so keep a safe

[04:03] distance from friends. Once clearing the

[04:05] room, Gemellus will appear. This

[04:07] oversized jellyfish will triplicate

[04:09] twice throughout the fight. Once in the

[04:11] three targets at the beginning of the

[04:12] fight, and again at 50% health to five

[04:15] targets. These adds will occasionally

[04:17] put on a massive absorb shield that need

[04:19] to be removed by the players with

[04:20] Norgannon's link. Each player is tied to

[04:22] one specific jelly indicated by a red

[04:24] arrow on the floor. Move over to your

[04:26] indicated jellyfish and touch them ASAP.

[04:28] Usually not good advice.

[04:30] The jellyfish will also attempt to pull

[04:31] players in, but there's no indication

[04:33] which jellyfish will target you, so try

[04:35] not to be too close to any of them.

[04:37] Headed into the final section, we have a

[04:39] nasty pull with two void callers before

[04:41] the final boss. Try and mark one to

[04:43] focus down to reduce the AoE damage.

[04:45] Degenerate, I mean, De Jentrius is the

[04:48] final and most punishing boss of the

[04:49] dungeon. The room is sectioned off into

[04:51] four quadrants. It's important to have a

[04:53] DPS in each of three sections and a tank

[04:55] and healer in the fourth. Splitting the

[04:57] group up is crucial for dealing with the

[04:59] main mechanic, Unstable Void Essence,

[05:01] which bounces from zone to zone and

[05:03] needs to be soaked by the player in that

[05:04] area before it drops. Basically, a

[05:06] volleyball fight. This boss requires a

[05:09] lot of personal responsibility, and if

[05:10] someone dies, it is absolutely necessary

[05:13] for the tank to take over that player's

[05:14] section to continue soaking.

[05:16] Additionally, players will spew out

[05:18] entropy orbs in the indicated direction.

[05:20] So, it's important to try not to snipe

[05:22] someone who's soaking. If you do get hit

[05:24] by an orb, it's okay. It's much more

[05:26] important to not miss the soak. Lastly,

[05:28] the tank will receive a nasty dot

[05:30] through the tank buster, Hulking

[05:31] Fragment, which needs to be dispelled.

[05:33] But, since it drops area denial, wait

[05:35] until the tank backs up a bit before

[05:37] dispelling them.

[05:39] Next up, we have My'sara's Caverns, and

[05:41] let me tell you, they really did not

[05:42] hold back with enemy diversity. There

[05:44] are so many different types of mobs, and

[05:46] right off the bat, we of course have a

[05:48] big lust pull. This first pull is wildly

[05:51] chaotic, and things can often get out of

[05:52] hand super quickly. There are head

[05:54] hunters disengaging to cast hook snare

[05:56] and throw spear, and an elephant who

[05:58] casts roar, a massive AoE damage button

[06:00] that also interrupts and silences

[06:01] casters. Additionally, berserkers will

[06:04] of course, well, berserk, dealing lots

[06:06] of tank damage, which is a good soothe

[06:08] target. AoE CC, stuns, interrupts, and

[06:11] grips are absolutely needed here, and

[06:13] the elephant should be your main prior

[06:15] target.

[06:16] From this first pull, you can either go

[06:17] left or right, with the main goal of

[06:19] freeing eight of the prisoners on your

[06:20] way to the first boss.

[06:22] Both paths have the same adds just with

[06:24] different layouts. Notably, there are

[06:26] hexbound eagles with a channeled frontal

[06:27] and shredding talons, so make sure not

[06:29] to stand in this. This visual is not

[06:31] easy to see, so look out for the cast

[06:33] and channel bar to help locate the bird.

[06:35] Regardless of which side you or your

[06:36] tank chooses to go, I recommend

[06:38] incorporating these huts in the route.

[06:40] Inside, there is soup, which each player

[06:42] can drink for 3% leech and avoidance.

[06:44] Nice. Likewise, each side has a hexbound

[06:46] guardian, which I would recommend

[06:47] skipping. They cast magma surge, which

[06:50] blasts a fiery beam towards a player and

[06:52] anyone in between. They also have an

[06:53] aura which blasts out damage constantly,

[06:56] and a dispel.

[06:58] Bears here will stack damage on the

[07:00] tank, so kiting will definitely be

[07:01] required at higher levels. Oh, kite

[07:03] tanking, when will you ever go away?

[07:06] Ritual hexers have, well, a hex cast.

[07:09] Hexers hex, berserkers berserk, makes

[07:11] sense. Umbral shadowbinders are another

[07:13] caster. Didn't they say they were going

[07:14] to be less casters? Anyways, these guys

[07:17] channel shrink onto a player who will

[07:19] get crushed if stepped on by another

[07:20] party member. Lastly, there are dread

[07:22] soul eaters that will throw out frogs.

[07:24] That's right, frogs, that need to be

[07:25] avoided. Finally, after going through a

[07:28] Super Smash Bros. roster of characters,

[07:30] we roll on to our first boss. This duo

[07:32] does not share health and must be killed

[07:34] at the same time. Murkidan will throw

[07:36] out freezing traps at players, so dodge

[07:37] these. He will also cast a frontal

[07:39] targeted at player, so isolate whoever

[07:41] is targeted. Murkidan will also

[07:43] disengage and knock back the tank, so

[07:45] make sure not to get hit into a freezing

[07:46] trap. His bird bud, Nekrax, will throw

[07:49] out AoE disease rot damage. Nekrax will

[07:51] also cast carrion sweep, in which he

[07:53] will charge at a player and knock them

[07:54] comically high into the air.

[08:04] The main target of this ability can step

[08:06] into a freezing trap to negate the hit

[08:07] and stun the big dumb bird. Remember all

[08:09] those ads we learned about in the first

[08:11] section? Forget about them. We have an

[08:13] entirely new set of undead ads after the

[08:15] first boss. Grim skirmishers have a

[08:17] purgeable shield worth half of their

[08:19] health, but be careful with mass dispel

[08:20] as they do do group-wide damage when

[08:22] depleted. Restless gnarlwood does AoE

[08:25] damage on each melee hit and has a tank

[08:27] buster. Restless warriors will stack

[08:29] dread slash and will attempt to

[08:30] reanimate upon death, which needs to be

[08:32] interrupted. This area is super

[08:34] dangerous for your tank, so healers,

[08:36] beware. Lastly, there are tormented

[08:38] shades which will cast spirit realm,

[08:40] which should be interrupted and

[08:41] dispelled. We then come across the mini

[08:43] boss of the dungeon, Rokzal, who has two

[08:45] main abilities. The first is just purple

[08:47] avenger, so avoid this, and the second

[08:50] is ritual sacrifice, which will place a

[08:52] player on the altar and attempt to

[08:54] sacrifice them. Brutal. This can be

[08:56] immune or dispelled via root removal,

[08:58] such as freedom or tyrant's lost. The

[09:01] next set of ads includes a new bound

[09:03] defender with another insane amount of

[09:05] abilities. They have an AoE damage on

[09:07] each melee hit and will also cast

[09:09] reflecting funnel as well as tornadoes

[09:11] that will knock you back in the most

[09:12] annoying way possible. In this area, try

[09:14] to avoid the souls as they will root you

[09:16] in place, as well as the bats as they

[09:17] will cast an AoE silence.

[09:19] The last enemy we have here is the

[09:21] hollow soul render, which will cast

[09:22] frost nova that roots nearby players.

[09:25] From there, we have the second boss,

[09:26] Fordragon, which I will let my good

[09:28] friend Blair explain.

[09:29] You got to make your ghosts kiss. Not

[09:31] all at once. Thank you, Blair.

[09:33] Players targeted by rest phantoms need

[09:35] to make their ghosts touch each other,

[09:37] which applies two dots. Once that falls

[09:39] off, the other two targeted players

[09:41] touch their ghosts. After every even

[09:43] cast of Rest Phantoms, the boss will

[09:45] jump into the middle and channel AoE

[09:47] damage and throw around balls. Break the

[09:49] shield to end the intermission, and the

[09:51] only other mechanic is Unmake, which is

[09:52] a frontal, so make sure to avoid it.

[09:55] For this next part, I recommend skipping

[09:56] as much of this section as possible, as

[09:58] the mini boss at the end of the bridge

[10:00] throws down orbs that can easily knock

[10:02] you off.

[10:03] WHAT AN IDIOT.

[10:06] GOD DAMN IT. ONCE YOU GET CLOSER TO HIM,

[10:09] he'll deal massive sonic damage, so kill

[10:10] him quickly. Afterwards, we are on to

[10:13] the final boss, Rock Tool. Rock Tool

[10:15] deals passive damage and spawns circles

[10:17] throughout the fight. His main mechanic

[10:18] is Crush Soul, in which he will leap to

[10:20] three targets quickly to drop three Soul

[10:22] Bind Totems, which will channel damage

[10:23] into players and drag them closer. Make

[10:25] sure to drop these close enough to

[10:27] cleave down. Tanks deal with Spirit

[10:29] Breaker, which will knock you back and

[10:31] drop a massive area denial. Make sure to

[10:33] drop this in the corner to both prevent

[10:35] the knockback and keep the area open.

[10:37] The intermission of the fight happens

[10:39] when he casts Soul Rending Roar, which

[10:40] deals increased damage for each alive

[10:42] totems, making them even more of a prio

[10:44] kill. You will be sent, once again, back

[10:46] across the bridge. Interrupt adds along

[10:48] the way to clear the way and gain a

[10:50] speed buff and damage buff. Rush back to

[10:53] the boss and blow him up.

[10:56] Next up, we have Nexus Point Xenix,

[10:57] which starts in a big open room, and

[10:59] that's it. You guessed it, a great first

[11:02] pull up.

[11:03] This strangely shaped dungeon is split

[11:05] into Arcane, Void, and Light. And the

[11:07] first pull has representatives from all

[11:08] three. The Void enemy is Scrounders,

[11:11] which are incidental adds that will jump

[11:12] onto another mob at half health,

[11:14] granting them an absorb shield, and can

[11:16] be removed via CC. For our Arcane

[11:19] representatives, we have Shadow Guard

[11:20] Defenders, who will stack armor decrease

[11:22] and heal absorbs with each melee through

[11:24] Null Sunder. These stacks can be removed

[11:26] by healing off the absorb, so healers

[11:28] might need to pay a special attention to

[11:30] their tanks in this first pull. right

[11:32] Arcanists have a super important cast,

[11:34] transference. This will cause all

[11:36] healing done to a player to be

[11:37] redirected to the Arcanist, which is

[11:39] obviously very bad. Not being able to

[11:41] heal the affected player means they

[11:43] might need external defensive {slash}

[11:45] absorbs. Lastly, we have our light

[11:47] representative, the lingering images,

[11:49] aka mini Aluraxion. These guys throw out

[11:52] dots and a really dangerous tank buster.

[11:54] This can be especially dangerous with

[11:56] stacks of null sunder, so make sure to

[11:58] plan defensives accordingly. From this

[12:00] first room, you can either head left or

[12:02] right first, but you'll need to go both

[12:03] ways eventually, so let's just head left

[12:05] to the arcane section for now. We have

[12:07] our familiar defenders and Arcanists

[12:09] from the first pull, but also a new

[12:10] lieutenant add, the circuit seers. These

[12:13] guys will cast core spark overload,

[12:15] which will empower a nearby barrel to

[12:16] explode after 10 seconds, almost

[12:18] guaranteeing a wipe. This barrel needs

[12:20] to be killed ASAP, as it cannot be CC'd

[12:23] or interrupted in any other way. They'll

[12:25] also channel AoE damage with arcing

[12:27] damage, that's what it's called. Nope,

[12:30] that's not what it's called, it's called

[12:31] arcane mana. Whatever, I'm keeping it

[12:33] in. The other new notable mob in this

[12:35] area are the flux engineers, who drop a

[12:36] debuff that deals damage when the player

[12:38] moves. So, if you have this, stand

[12:40] still. They also drop barrels. The last

[12:43] notable part of this section before

[12:44] moving on to the boss is don't cross

[12:46] these lasers, obvious, but less obvious

[12:48] is that warlock gateways don't work.

[12:50] However, rogues and engineers can

[12:52] disable them permanently, so that could

[12:55] vary up the route.

[12:56] These core sparks deal massive damage if

[12:58] you stand in them and grant haste, but

[13:00] straight up they are not worth it, as

[13:02] they'll just kill you before you get any

[13:03] meaningful buff.

[13:05] Core right Kaz'raj, the first boss, will

[13:07] section off the area quickly with lay

[13:09] line array, which needs to be removed by

[13:11] whatever player gets the reflux charge

[13:13] debuff. When active, the debuff player

[13:15] will see the pink lines change to blue.

[13:17] If you're color blind,

[13:19] um

[13:21] I don't know.

[13:23] Good luck.

[13:24] Make sure to hit the most amount of

[13:26] lines possible, so stand in the

[13:27] intersection of any lines.

[13:29] Flux collapse will also shoot out

[13:31] circles underneath the targeted player

[13:32] and leave behind arcane spill, so move

[13:34] out of these as they spawn underneath

[13:36] you. Once the boss reaches 100 energy,

[13:38] he will throw a massive ball at a

[13:40] player, so try and bait this into a good

[13:42] spot as it will knock all players back a

[13:44] significant amount and you want to avoid

[13:46] anyone getting hit into the lasers. It

[13:48] will also leave a huge heal absorb on

[13:50] players, so healers plan accordingly.

[13:52] After the boss is downed, players need

[13:54] to channel the conduit behind the boss

[13:55] to be returned to the first room where

[13:57] you can start heading to the next wing,

[13:58] the void wing.

[14:00] In this section, when some ads die, they

[14:02] will spawn smudges that will inch

[14:04] towards dormant dreadflails and channel

[14:06] whatever health they have remaining into

[14:08] them. You do not want these guys to wake

[14:10] up, so kill the smudges ASAP. Grand

[14:12] nullifiers are the main casters in this

[14:14] wing who will cast nullify that will

[14:16] chunk DPS, so make sure to kick it. They

[14:18] also spawn these circles that will, hmm,

[14:21] let me see. Oh yeah, fear you. Hence the

[14:24] giant fear symbol. Cursed void callers

[14:26] burst upon death with creeping void.

[14:29] Dust crate herald will post dark

[14:30] beckoning which sends out tiny void

[14:32] walkers that float outwards dealing

[14:34] damage upon contact with players. They

[14:36] also channel damage with entropic leech

[14:38] which can be ended early if the healing

[14:40] absorb is removed. Null sentinels will

[14:41] cast dread bellow which is an AoE damage

[14:44] curse and a knockback, so make sure not

[14:46] to get knocked in the nearby packs. They

[14:48] also have a tank buster. The last enemy

[14:50] is a dreadflail and you'll see why we

[14:52] don't want these Hades looking Mfers to

[14:53] wake up. All melees are frontals and

[14:56] flail storm turns him into a beyblade

[14:58] that hits a player and is definitely not

[15:00] a melee friendly mechanic. After three

[15:02] waves of enemies, core warden Nassarian

[15:04] will spawn with 60% health. She will

[15:06] cast eclipsing step which does damage in

[15:08] a huge radius, so run this out of the

[15:10] group. Additionally, she will use null

[15:12] vanguard that spawns a dreadflail and a

[15:14] nullifier. This is especially dangerous

[15:16] since the boss also has a tank buster

[15:18] that will leave you vulnerable. There is

[15:19] a massive 300% damage amp phase 30

[15:22] seconds into the fight and every 1

[15:23] minute afterwards, so plan accordingly.

[15:25] This happens when the wraith scene

[15:27] attacks the boss. Do not stand in this

[15:29] initial hit as it'll disorient and

[15:31] damage you, but stand in the light scar

[15:32] flare afterwards for the buff. This also

[15:35] does a ton of damage so healers might

[15:36] need big cool downs here. After the boss

[15:38] is dead, channel into the same conduit

[15:40] but don't hold your breath as you will

[15:42] immediately have to channel into another

[15:44] conduit. Oh yeah, gameplay. In this

[15:47] section you pretty much go from mini

[15:49] wraith scene to mini wraith scene with

[15:51] the most notable new ad being the light

[15:52] rod. These guys spam bolts like crazy

[15:55] and should be interrupted at any chance

[15:57] you get. They also throw out two magic

[15:58] debuffs which should be dispelled and

[16:00] healed. There are also these bats that

[16:02] blow up upon death dealing damage to

[16:03] players and healing enemies in the

[16:05] circle. Additionally, swarms of bugs

[16:07] will fixate players and melee them, so

[16:08] try to kite them through the pack.

[16:13] Once the two lingering images are killed

[16:15] on the platform, the real wraith scene

[16:17] will spawn. The main mechanic of this

[16:19] fight revolves around brilliant

[16:20] dispersion that spawns two fractured

[16:22] images on three different players for a

[16:24] total of six images per cast. These ads

[16:26] will occasionally use flicker to dash

[16:27] towards a player indicated by a circle

[16:29] and running into these images at any

[16:31] point in the fight will cause them to

[16:32] claw at you dealing damage and knocking

[16:34] you back. The intermission causes all

[16:36] fractured images to channel AoE damage.

[16:38] You must find the boss hidden within the

[16:40] images. The boss is the only one without

[16:42] horns. Additionally, hunters mark will

[16:44] stay on the real boss, but this might be

[16:46] patched out. Don't interrupt any of the

[16:49] fake bosses as interrupting the wrong

[16:52] one will cause massive AoE damage.

[16:55] Our last dungeon is my favorite of the

[16:57] four, Windrunner Spire. The initial room

[16:59] is a big open space perfect for a lust

[17:02] ball.

[17:03] The main casters in this pool are the

[17:05] restless stirs. They throw out spirit

[17:06] bolts as well as two dispel debuffs at a

[17:08] time. Dutiful groundskeepers will slowly

[17:11] build up sheer armor stacks with each

[17:12] melee. Spellguard Magus channel arcane

[17:14] salvo for AoE damage and at 50% they

[17:17] drop 99% damage reduction AoE effect.

[17:20] This is what can really stop DPS in

[17:22] their tracks as damage effectively

[17:24] cannot be done as long as enemies are in

[17:26] it. Use pushes, grips, and kite the pack

[17:28] out of these ASAP. We once again have a

[17:30] choice for which boss to go to first.

[17:32] Almost every group I've run with has

[17:34] gone to Emberdon first, so I'll go over

[17:35] that wing.

[17:37] Territorial Dragonhawks are the mob you

[17:39] need to know about and spread the word

[17:41] about. Fire spit channel will target one

[17:44] player and basically mark them for

[17:45] death. CC and kill these ASAP. This can

[17:48] only be stopped with a hard stop, not an

[17:51] interrupt. The next section is

[17:53] Arachnophobia/Crab

[17:55] Central with lots of poison sprays going

[17:57] out at once. There's also a mini boss in

[17:59] this section, the Apex legs, who has a

[18:01] tank buster and will leap to players

[18:03] dealing splash AoE damage, so loosely

[18:05] spread. Next, there is the mushroom

[18:06] section where little lashers are hidden

[18:08] around the bushes and make for a super

[18:10] fun high damage pull. Notably, there is

[18:12] a big bloated lasher that has a big AoE

[18:14] spore dispersal that buffs the nearby

[18:16] lashers. Soon enough, we're on to our

[18:18] first boss, Emberdon. This fight

[18:20] revolves around flaming updraft in which

[18:22] players will be targeted to drop flaming

[18:23] tornadoes after location after a few

[18:26] seconds. Bait this to the edge of the

[18:28] room and then move the second it comes

[18:29] out. This is important for the

[18:31] intermission for when the boss casts

[18:33] burning gale, pulling players towards

[18:35] him, pulsing heavy AoE damage, and

[18:36] rotating like a sausage to cast four

[18:38] fire breaths. This is where you need to

[18:40] use defensives, big healer cooldowns,

[18:42] and whatever you need to survive. Other

[18:44] than that, this boss has a tank buster

[18:46] with searing beak that leaves a dot, so

[18:48] be prepared for that. It's also worth it

[18:49] to mention that if you need to release

[18:51] any point before this, there's an item

[18:53] to click in the beginning that will give

[18:54] you a speed boost to get back. After

[18:56] Emberdon is defeated, click the portal

[18:57] to be sent back to the beginning and

[18:59] head down the other wing.

[19:01] In this next section, we have a few new

[19:02] adds. Wind runner soldiers will cast

[19:04] precise cut reducing healing done, so

[19:06] blood death knights beware. Ardent

[19:08] cutthroats will cast poison blades that

[19:10] cause them to stack poison on the tank

[19:11] and a nearby player, so make sure to

[19:13] interrupt this. The second interrupt

[19:15] target is the devoted warbringers who

[19:16] will cast pulsing shriek, which gives

[19:18] them a big absorb shield while they

[19:19] pulse heavy AoE damage.

[19:21] Break the shield and kick this channel

[19:23] ASAP as healers can't keep up with this

[19:24] damage. Lastly, there are flesh behemoth

[19:27] who will drop fetid spew to drop puddles

[19:28] of area denial and also have a tank

[19:30] buster. Soon enough, you're at the

[19:32] second boss, a duo encounter that once

[19:34] again does not share health, so make

[19:35] sure to cleave down evenly. Callous will

[19:37] cast curse of darkness, which is a curse

[19:39] dispel causes ghosts to fixate two

[19:41] players at a time. Kite this away and

[19:43] dispel if you can, otherwise CC these

[19:45] adds. She also spams bolt, so interrupt

[19:47] this when possible to prevent

[19:48] unnecessary damage. At 100 energy, she

[19:51] will channel debilitating shriek, which

[19:52] does increasingly more AoE damage. The

[19:54] only way to stop this cast is to bait

[19:56] the hook from the other boss to hit her,

[19:58] similar to necrotic wake. The player

[20:00] targeted will need to make sure to stand

[20:02] behind the boss and line up the arrow.

[20:04] And the tank should make sure the two

[20:05] bosses are close enough together going

[20:07] into the intermission. Anyone else in

[20:09] the path of the hook will intercept the

[20:11] hook. So, if you're not targeted, stay

[20:13] clear of the arrow. Latches other

[20:15] ability is splattering spew. Ew, gross.

[20:18] Which will drop puddles at player

[20:20] locations after a few seconds. So, bait

[20:22] these around the area. He also uses bone

[20:24] hack, a channeled tank buster, so make

[20:26] sure to have defensives for the duration

[20:27] of the cast. After the duo is defeated,

[20:30] click the portal once again to head

[20:31] back. Seriously, I feel like I'm playing

[20:33] Super Metroid with all this

[20:34] backtracking. Now, there'll be a new

[20:36] path open to the third boss. Swiftshot

[20:38] archers will shoot players in small on

[20:40] circles to avoid. The failings breakers,

[20:42] also known as chokewheel riders, will

[20:43] charge players with break rank, so take

[20:45] note of which way they are facing in

[20:47] order to dodge this attack. They also

[20:48] cast interrupting screech, which, you

[20:50] guessed it, will interrupt you. The next

[20:52] section has more ghosts, but now they're

[20:54] red, so you know they're angry. There

[20:56] are spectral axe throwers who will throw

[20:58] axes to apply bleeds. Phantasmal mystics

[21:00] will cast chain lightning, a must kick,

[21:02] and also attempt to cast blood lost at

[21:05] at

[21:05] health. Lastly, there are lingering

[21:07] marauders who will bayblade and might

[21:09] need to be CC'd if they're too much for

[21:11] your group. We are then on to our third

[21:13] boss, Commander Kro'lok. He will cast

[21:15] two reckless leaps back-to-back

[21:17] targeting the furthest player from him

[21:19] each time. This leaves a dot as well as

[21:21] a ton of debris circles around the area.

[21:23] Overlapping with the second leap circles

[21:25] is intimidating shout that will fear

[21:27] players not standing with other people.

[21:29] You only need to be near one other

[21:30] person, so ranged can go with ranged and

[21:32] melee with melee. At 66 and 33% health,

[21:35] the boss will go into an intermission

[21:36] with rallying bellow that does initial

[21:38] AoE damage and summons four haunting

[21:40] grunts, a phantasmal mystic, and a

[21:42] spectral axe thrower. During this

[21:44] intermission, the boss is immune and

[21:46] will fixate a player with bayblade.

[21:47] Killing the adds ends the intermission,

[21:49] so focus them down. Afterwards, you are

[21:51] sent right to the final boss, the

[21:53] restless heart.

[21:54] This boss revolves around managing the

[21:56] permanent dot of squall leap, which is

[21:57] removed by touching an arrow. Touching

[21:59] an arrow will fling you up into the air

[22:01] and leave a puddle at your feet, which

[22:02] can be removed later with gust shot. You

[22:04] should remove one stack of squall leap

[22:06] right away and use the arrow to remove

[22:08] another when bull's eye wind blast is

[22:10] cast so that you can get over the wave.

[22:13] Additionally, the boss will channel

[22:14] arrow rain, which follows a player, so

[22:16] aim this at a wall. There's also a tank

[22:17] buster with a large knockback, so make

[22:19] sure you are also hit into a wall so you

[22:21] aren't accidentally knocked into an

[22:22] arrow.

[22:24] So there you have it. Those are the four

[22:25] new dungeons coming up in Midnight

[22:26] Season 1. If you have any questions,

[22:28] feel free to leave a comment down below.
