Abilities

Magic Pull: Pulls all party members to Drakos.

Bomb Release: At the beginning, Drakos will summon floating landmines that will periodically explode. These need to be avoided as best as possible.

Bomb: This is a debuff placed on one party member directly after Magic Pull. This bomb debuff (like the one for Murmur) will cause one player to explode and do AOE damage after a short time. The player with this debuff should quickly run away from the group to avoid blowing up everyone else.

Thundering Stomp: Drakos will stomp the ground, dealing Physical damage to enemies in a large area and knocking them into the air.

Strategies

When the boss fight begins, Drakos will summon floating bombs that quickly fly around the island players on. These bombs do not detonate on touching, rather Drakos will randomly blow a number up throughout the fight. The bombs move at a fairly quick pace so it may be difficult for groups to avoid them in time to dodge an explosion. However, they only hit for around 2,000 each, so it can be easily healed through.

Drakos will occasionally use a spell called Magic Pull and cause everyone to be teleported to him. At this time casters and range should head out of melee range.

In addition to the pull, Drakos will randomly place a bomb debuff on one target. This person needs to run away from everyone else until they explode, then return to the fight.

This fight (as well as every other fight in this instance) becomes increasingly easier if you have a healer with the capability to heal more than one target simultaneously. A druid healer will shine most of all throughout this fight from the use of HoTs.

Drakos will also use Thundering Stomp, which will launch any melee into the air a small distance and deal some physical damage. This ability is on a 5 second cooldown.
