Railmaster Rocketspark and [npc=77816] are the first boss combination in [zone=6984], who are fought simultaneously and receive buffs when the other dies.
Both should die close to the same time, and [npc=77816]'s [spell=161089] used to knock [npc=77803] off the boxes and stun him.
[npc=77803] is un-tankable and ideally should be ranged down, as he is usually out of melee range.
- He casts [spell=162407] and [spell=162500] from on top of boxes or at range, changing position often.
- When [npc=77816] dies, he gets a [spell=161091] and begins [spell=166561], which should be avoided by killing both simultaneously.
- He can be knocked off the boxes and stunned by [npc=77816]'s [spell=161089].
[npc=77816] should be tanked with melee DPS.
- The tank and melee should move away to avoid his [spell=162617].
- When [npc=77803] dies, he gains [spell=161092], which should be avoided by killing both simultaneously.
- His [spell=161089] should be avoided by all, except the tank. The direction of his [spell=161089] is indicated by a red arrow on the ground at his feet.
DPS should split damage evenly between the bosses and the tank should aim [npc=77816]'s [spell=161089] towards [npc=77803] to knock him off the boxes and stun him.
- The tank should face [npc=77816] towards [npc=77803] near the center of the room.
- Everyone else should not be positioned between them.
- Ranged should DPS [npc=77803].
- Melee should DPS [npc=77816]
- If there is an imbalance in DPS, ranged can partially DPS [npc=77816], or melee can DPS [npc=77803] when he re-positions to the ground, to maintain equal DPS on both.
- When [npc=77816] is about to cast [spell=161089], the tank should start walking him towards [npc=77803].The closer the distance; the less likely to miss and the less distance melee has to close.
- The tank should aim the [spell=161089]'s red arrow at [npc=77816]'s feet precisely at [npc=77803]. The tank can run directly to [npc=77803] when casting has begun, as long as he turns to face the charge.
- If [npc=77816]'s [spell=161089] hits [npc=77803] or the boxes directly below where he is, it will knock him off the boxes and stun him.
- Once [npc=77803] is down and stunned, DPS should AOE both.
- Repeat
- Both should die at the same time to avoid [spell=161091] and [spell=161092].
