GNOMEREGAN RAID GUIDE - SEASON OF DISCOVERY

here's a quick neran raid guide a NR is tuned quite a bit harder than BFD so you might need to know some of the Mechanics for most of the encounters if you want to clear it week one so with that being said let's Dive Right In the first boss is named grubas and he spawns after a few ad waves you have to deal with during the ad waves you'll also notice a green gas cloud moving around the room this is just basically chasing players and it should chase the player nearest to it just like the molten lava totem from BFD don't get hit by this gas cloud as it will hurt you make sure to drag the trog ads into the gas cloud because they will explode killing the trogs and getting rid of the gas cloud itself and while this gas cloud is up the whole raid will receive a pulsing AOE nature damage and this will be important later on on the boss himself have the off tank pick up the Basilisk pet this is basically because the pet will randomly deagro and randomly Agro on someone else just taunt him back here and keep dpsing grabus and gas clouds will keep spawning faster as time goes on so it's a little bit of a DPS race make sure to keep dragging the ads into the gas cloud and don't let the gas cloud reach the boss or else it will enrage the boss at 20% the boss enrages anyways and starts hitting the tank for a ton of damage make sure to save some cooldowns for this because you'll also probably have multiple gas clouds doing a ton of AOE damage to the entire raid you can also utilize AOE heals and having a shadow priest could make this raid a lot easier with vampiric Embrace but I suggest using a nature protection potion to burn the boss down after youve defeated the boss himself s you still have to beat his pet Chomper so just know you're not done with the fight completely yet viscous Fallout make sure you take the boss away from these little bracers you see on the ground these are called desiccated fallouts so just drag the boss as far away from these as you can because the boss will spawn three irradiated goo and these three Goos will move directly towards those bindings on the ground if they reach those bindings they will spawn an ad that you have to deal with so you can CC and slow these goo and burn them down whenever they spawn the boss himself will actually spawn a poison Cloud underneath them it's a little bit hard to see like the visual isn't super clear but just make sure you're continuously dragging the boss away from that whenever it spawns crowd pumer is probably the first challenge for most groups and most pugs because there's a lot of self-responsibility going on here the boss will throw out two Cog wheels that spin around the room if they hit you they knock you back and they can actually continue knocking you back to literally knock you off the platform and if this happens you just fall down and die be aware anyone that actually dies this way will have their corpse put in the front of the room so you can battle res them or they can use Soul stones but just know if you fall off the platform you're out as you continue dpsing the boss eventually he will spawn two more of these wheels so you'll have four of them to watch out for but the real major mechanic you need to watch out for is his frontal his frontal is called neran Smash and you'll notice the boss have like a lightning animation on top of them and if you're hit by this cast you will be One-Shot because cuz it will knock you off of the platform and you will die the way to dodge this is to look at the boss's feet and we do this because it's a lot easier to notice the direction the boss is facing it actually can be a little bit confusing with his animations if you're looking at his hands or anything like that just look at the boss's feet trust me it'll be way easier for you now that you're dodging those mechanics at 25% the boss will start casting another ability called cloth this is where he will randomly Target one member in the raid and then charge at that member once he reaches you he will do a ton of damage and pick you up in his hand kind of like flailing you around as if you were his main weapon this person needs to be topped off on HP and expect a ton of healing to make sure that they don't die or you can do things to avoid this completely you can actually blink the charge you can ice block the charge I think you can Fain death and vanish the charge so just be aware you're going to want to try to mitigate this as much as possible and then the boss is down the electrocutioner in True Form will put positive and negative charges throughout the raid make sure to tank them against the wall wall and if you get the negative charge just run away from the raid you'll notice this because it's a huge circle lightning animation around the player that has it and if it's on the tank just make sure everyone else is outside of the range of that Circle the main mechanic is dealing with the chain lightning this will Target the furthest player away from the boss himself and then that will change to the two closest members next to that furthest player and once you're hit by this you will receive a debuff that means if you get hit by this again while you have that debuff you will get one shot basically what you want to do is have two range groups just standing out of three people when one of them gets hit by the chain lightning then the other range group takes a step back and that range group takes a step forward realistically to do the most damage you would actually have one range group just stand still the whole time and then a Healer group that moves forward and back to make sure that the other range group is targeted if you don't have six range players you can use melee to stand closer to the person that is getting targeted by the chain lightning of course again that is on the furthest player away from the boss and if any of the players players that are supposed to soak get targeted by the negative charge just have them move out of the group and send someone else to go soak the mechanical managerie is four bosses all at once and all of these are like engineering summon trinket items like the explosive sheep or mechanical Dragon Ling but just know you need to down these all at the same time or near the same time or else they will repair themselves and come back to life with extra HP the sheep can be cuted the entire time just have range deal damage to it because it does a pulsing AOE stun then you're going to want two tanks for the other mobs an off tank taking the mechanical Dragon mob and the main tank taking the squirrel and the battle chicken the dragon Ling will randomly do a frontal cone fire blast make sure that the raid does not get hit by that but I would keep the dragon Ling close to the other one so it can take a little bit of cleave damage now the squirrel will randomly do AOE damage to the raid and the battle chicken will lay eggs you just want to burn those eggs down right away to keep things easy the battle chicken also will get a battle squawk up which basically is a blood lust on all of the ads just get ready to use cooldowns whenever that's up if your healers or casters are struggling with Mana at all you'll notice these red buttons by the vents all around the room if you click that button you get back a ton of Mana but you're also hit for like 670 damage so be aware you're trading HP for Mana but it definitely can keep you topped up and it can help the healers significantly once you down them all at the same time make sure to loot them and then move away from the middle of the room because the last boss will spawn right here and there's like no warning and no delay so he will W you if you just still standing there this last boss is mecha gear thermop plug and it's a four-phase encounter where the first three phases are going to be one fire ice in the second phase and then nature or poison in the third phase and the last phase is like Voltron where all the zoids come together and form a mega Mech each of the first three phases will transition at 50% on the boss so just know you don't need to burn it entirely during each phase there will be bombs that Spawn from the vents around the room and and when these vents are open you can just close them by clicking that button we were talking about earlier have mobile range classes the best ones would be Mages be ready to Blink to these Vents and press the button if you're fast enough you can even close the vents before any bombs spawn but usually it'll be one to two you can Cc or slow these and then just burn them down they have something like less than 300 HP so one attack should take it out in the first phase tank the boss towards the entrance of the room and on one of these sides when he starts casting the flamethrower you're going to want to start kiting him to the other side this is because if you get hit by the flame damage here you will get a stacking debuff that does more and more damage to you so your tank could take a ton of damage if they have too many stacks you can also have an off tank taunt or even a hunter pet taunt to reset the stacks they only actually last on you for 15 seconds remember to deal with the firebombs that are spawning and get ready for phase two Phase 2 will be the frost phase the boss will pulse an AOE Frost damage that actually Stacks up and will slow everyone in the raid for each stack they have this is dispellable because it is a magic debuff and you can also completely ignore this mechanic if you just use free action potions each stack on the raid will actually increase the boss's damage to the tank whenever he hits them with his tank Buster mechanic super cooled smash so make sure that you do not have a lot of stacks on the raid or else the tank will get one shot and either way this still will hit the tank for a ton of damage so be ready to heal make sure the range deal with the frost bombs and get ready for phase three phase three it's the phase that most guilds were super stuck on because the main mechanic is the boss will cast an AOE damage channel that will literally wipe the raid all you need to do here is interrupt but this does not have a cast bar so just be aware of when it's happening make sure somebody kicks or you cast counter spell this phase is actually probably the easiest because of that so make sure you're dealing with the bombs and get ready for phase four the Voltron phase in the Final Phase the boss has all of the mechanics you dealt with earlier that means you still need to kite the boss you also need to dispel the magic debuff or use a free action potion and you need to kick that AOE damage ability that's doing the poison damage to wipe your raid in this phase you also will have to deal with bombs of every single element these will spawn one after another from the same vents so if you close the vents quickly you won't have to deal with too much and since this is the Final Phase you actually do need to bring the mechaz Zoid down to 0 HP so be ready to burn it all the way down once you have defeated this in true gnomish fashion the actual boss Mecha gear will jump out of his Mech and you just need to burn him down he doesn't really do anything he's very easy to defeat so once you've actually downed the major boss then just burn him and congratulations you have now cleared Nan in phase two of season of Discovery I hope everybody gets all the loot they're looking for cuz the drops seem to be just phenomenal right now maybe there's
