Immediately after being broken, Sabir targets every player with an AoE that fills with color over three seconds. They could then move to the side of Sabir in order to take less damage. Note that his basic attacks apply Violent Currents, so players should initially stack in front of the boss in order to gain the maximum stacks for the damage boost.

Sabir aggros on the player with the highest toughness, and cycles through his autoattack chain: Players may land on the edge of the final platform safely, and approaching Sabir will start the fight. On one of the later platforms, players will need to use tornadoes to progress rather than wisps. Repeat this process of killing wisps and jumping from platform to platform until the squad reaches Sabir. Kill this wisp and it will create a “jump pad” to the next platform. Sabir is waiting ahead but flees after a short conversation, leaving behind a Voltaic Wisp. Within the Conservatory are more wisps and tornadoes, though these can be ignored. Once all four wisps are dead, the orb on the pedestal may be activated to lower the barrier to the Fractured Conservatory. In addition, they will drop small AoEs called that Cripple and Daze. The Voltaic Wisps meanwhile will constantly push nearby players away from them, while dealing 500 damage per second via Electro-Repulsion until their defiance bars (strength: 600) are broken. Violent Current is also removed if a player is touched by one of the roaming tornadoes, which will throw them into the air and apply Weakness (the Weakness is only applied if stacks of Violent Current are removed). Using the skill removes all stacks of Violent Currents. Using this skill teleports the player to the targeted location, dealing a small amount of damage and inflicting five seconds of Stun (in addition to being a stun break). Once the player gains 5 stacks of Violent Currents, it grants them a Special Action Key (SAK) called Flash Discharge. The two effects combined mean the Paralyzing Wisps can quickly deal a lot of damage, and so their defiance bars (strength: 600) should be quickly broken as this will remove all stacks of Momentum. inflicts Immobilize and gives players a stack of Violent Currents, which itself increases damage taken and outgoing damage by 5% per stack up to a maximum of five. The Paralyzing Wisps will attack with and every time they attack they gain a stack of Momentum that increases their damage and attack speed by 5% per stack up to a maximum of 20. Guarding the entrance are two Voltaic Wisps and two Paralyzing Wisps.

Heading west from the Leystone Axis, players will be introduced to two enemies and related mechanics that will occur in the upcoming encounter. The two bosses can be done in either order. If Glenna dies the entire event must be completed from the start.Īfter finally gaining entrance to the city, Glenna and the Key discuss the next steps: The Cardinals of Air and Earth must be killed before Qadim can be tackled. If remaining at the gate, players should try to stand such that Glenna is not hit by the champions’ AoEs. Regardless of the approach taken, Glenna needs to be kept alive so a healer should keep an eye on her and any branded that reach her should be killed quickly. Players can either run to each of the Djinn (the two to the east are easy to pull together) and kill them, or remain at the gate and have someone aggro the Djinn and pull them to the stack. The squad can either defend her for five minutes, or kill the three Champion Branded Djinn that spawn nearby. Once all four are captured Glenna will move to the gate and begin repairing the mechanism to open it. Capturing will only progress when they are empty of enemies, so abilities that can force them off the point may be helpful. In order to recover these pieces, the squad must capture four courtyards in turn. In order to gain entrance to the city, all the sections of the Key must be gathered from among the branded ahead. Glenna meets the squad near the entrance to Ahdashim and is soon joined by The Key of Ahdashim, or what remains of it.
