Fight Mechanics
| Mechanic | Description |
|---|---|
| Drain Mana | Heavy mana drain on a random player; casters deplete quickly |
| Arcane Eruption | At 0 mana Moam explodes — AoE damage to the raid |
| Stone Form | At 100% mana — immune to magic, vulnerable to physical; regenerates mana |
| Summon Bile Flayer | Adds summoned under certain conditions |
Strategy
Совет
Key to victory: do NOT let Moam reach 100% mana. If it fills — Stone Form, he heals himself. Tank maintains threat; casters DPS normally until mana nears 80%.
Standard approach: 1. Tank holds Moam, raid DPS normally 2. When Moam mana reaches ~80%+ — physical DPS only (Warriors/Rogues/Hunters) 3. If Stone Form triggers — all physical burst DPS to end it fast 4. On exit from Stone Form — cycle repeats
Mana Tide Totem / Innervate help casters survive the drain. Healers use mana potions liberally.
Composition
- Composition: 1 tank, 3–4 healers, mixed physical + magical DPS
- Recommended: 2+ Warriors/Rogues for Stone Form burst windows
