Xenos is a ninja.
Beorn and Wildthing... Not so much.
It's fun to watch in slow-mo.

tell me what's happening here. did you miss a servitor? Is there a safe spot for when that happens? We just wiped every time we missed a servitor.

After you slammo the boss the third time and dps the crap out of him, he does an AOE nuke of the whole area, and you're only safe if you're standing on one of the four glowing towers. So the video is from someone standing on the tower while Beorn and Wildthing apparently don't quite make it in time. This is why you want higher agility, guardians!
Higher agility, shmigher shmagility...

You have like two weeks to get to the platforms after third teleport. The farthest folks should pre-emptively push towards middle during the third damage phase (should do that anyway for WoL Bubbles...
Max Armor/Recovery all day errday.

At least two weeks. I was consistently surprised at how much time we had to get to the platform.

It also happens when you miss a servitor. Ideally you want it to happen after the third round of DPSing :-)

Well yeah, but if you miss a servitor and have to use a pillar, you won't have enough pillars left to survive long enough for your dps to kill the boss, so it's basically a wipe any time a servitor is missed.

Actually, depending on your DPS, it isn't necessarily a wipe. You get 5 rounds for DPS, where the 5th he enrages. It's possible to get him to a point on the 4th round where he goes back to his "throne" to finish him off. I mean, I haven't done it, but we came close a couple times.

Totally true. I imagine once everyone has better gear that a three phase kill will be possible. Some enterprising self-res warlocks will likely do a "no pillars" run.
Doubtful

They switched up the death mechanic from his insta-wipe AoE. The attack immediately reduces your Super bar by a pixel or two at the time of death, making it impossible to self-res. Maybe if you were standing on an orb when you died, though…?
Doubtful
But if you kill yourself before the attack, you keep your Super I believe? It's a long attack, but if you took it in turns self-ressing to draw the wipe counter out as long as possible, you might manage.
Correct. Did this on purpose once.

I forget what I was doing to be so late to that one…
Also, you forgot to post the time Xenos went to the wrong platform. :D

I have to post this because I'm still wondering how I made this shot. Mostly because all I was hearing in my headphones was "THERE IS ONE ON THE RIGHT!! HE IS ALMOST THERE!!" And that was when I picked the cannon up :-D
I REMEMBER THAT!
