Overview
Adventure Guide says
The fight begins with some members of your raid collecting Molten Feathers to fly after Alysrazor while the rest of the raid stays below to handle several adds. Once this stage ends, players must regroup down on the ground and avoid Alysrazor's attacks before she spends all of her energy, making her vulnerable for a short time. Once she has regained half of her energy she becomes active again, fighting from the ground. When she finally reaches full energy she will return to her Stage One activities. This cycle repeats until Alysrazor is defeated.
- Voracious Hatchlings will Imprint on the nearest player they see when they spawn.
- Move Voracious Hatchlings near a Plump Lava Worm to keep them Satiated or else they will start throwing Tantrums.
- Blazing Talon Initiates do not need to be tanked.
- Work with the other tank to manage your stacks of Blazing Claw in Stage Four.
- Tanks will take significantly more damage in Stage One if their Voracious Hatchling throws a Tantrum.
- During Stage Two you will need to move constantly.
- In Stage Three, no damage should go out on the raid.
- In Stage Four, Alysrazor will constantly pulse Fire damage to the raid. When Stage Four ends she emits one final, large burst of Fire damage.
- Blazing Talon Initiates will gain stacks of Fire it Up! if they successfully cast Fieroblast.
- Most abilities in Stage One are avoidable.
- Blazing Talon Clawshapers that spawn in Stage Three will give Molten Power to Alysrazor if they are not controlled with stuns and interrupts.
- Picking up a Molten Feather after Alysrazor takes to the air in Stage One will give you Wings of Flame.
- While you have Wings of Flame, you can cast while moving.
- Pass through the Rings of Fire while flying to gain Blazing Power and refresh the duration of Wings of Flame.
Encounter phases
