Phase two
After 90 seconds Heigan will teleport to the middle of the raised platform and begin channeling.
- Deals 7,500 Nature damage a second to any player remaining on the raised platform during Phase Two.
- Three quarters of the remaining area of the room will be hit by eruption every few seconds during Phase Two. Does 6650 to 7350 Nature damage on a hit. Near the edge of a safe spot players will only be hit once. In the middle of unsafe spots they will be hit multiple times which is generally fatal.
Strategy
Forces players to run through gauntlet, avoiding plague waves, undead, vermin, and Loatheb type-spores. Heigan awaits at the end of gauntlet and can be pulled and damaged for a short time. Periodically he will teleport all players to the start of the gauntlet and start it over again.
