Encounter phases
Adventure Guide says
- Stage One: Truly Something to Behold Chimaeron attacks his current target with Break and Double Attack, while continually spraying Caustic Slime at the raid. He periodically casts Massacre on the raid, and his heads sometimes Feud following a Massacre.
- Stage Two: A Horrific Creation At 20% health Chimaeron goes into a rage. This renders him immune to Taunt effects and greatly decreases healing done by players.
Boss abilities
| Ability | Adventure Guide | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Pip's Mixture | The Bile-O-Tron sprays Pip's Mixture on the raid while online. | |
| Caustic Slime | Chimaeron lobs Caustic Slime at two random players. In 25 player raids Chimaeron lobs Caustic Slime at five random players. | |
| Massacre | Chimaeron hits all players for massive damage, probably killing anyone not under the effects of Pip's Mixture. Massacre sometimes knocks the Bile-O-Tron offline for a short period of time. | |
| Feud | Whenever Chimaeron knocks the Bile-O-Tron offline, his two heads begin to argue with each other, preventing Chimaeron from perfoming melee attacks for 30 sec. In Heroic Difficulty Lord Victor Nefarius orders Chimaeron to stop his bickering, ending Feud after only 2 seconds. | |
| Break | This effect stacks. | |
| Double Attack | Chimaeron strikes twice with his next attack. | |
| Mortality | Chimaeron goes into a rage, rendering him immune to Taunt effects. | |
| Mocking Shadows |
