Fated to burst into roaring flames, causing damage to those nearby when this effect expires.

This is a two person stack debuff.

Mechanics

Initial AOEs from the rocks and flames. Can be rotated or mirrored.

castSeal of Scurrying Sparks applies brazierLive Brazier to two random players. castFlame and Sulphur then spawns 4 flames and 6 rocks around the arena. Finally, at the start of the castBrazen Ballad cast we see 3 telegraphs:

  1. Line AOEs from each flame.
  2. Circle AOEs under each rock.
  3. One of two symbols around bossGorai:
    • A blue triangle.
    • An orange circle.

Near the end of the castBrazen Ballad cast, the telegraphed AOEs will change based on the symbol Gorai shows.

Grow Icon

This will cause the telegraphed AOEs to grow larger.

Split Icon

The circular AOEs will convert to donut AOEs, and grow larger. The line AOEs will split in two, moving to each side.

Strategy

Because the two stack debuffs are completely random, this mechanic requires a flex. To solve this, we will be using these priorities:

tankTank meleeMelee North
healerHealer rangedRanged South

The tankTank and meleeMelee flex to the other side if both players on one side have the stack debuff.

Begin by checking the debuffs. Ensure that both pairs of players have a brazierStack debuff. Melee will swap sides if necessary.

When the rocks spawn, you can begin to identify where the safe spots are. Two of the rocks will be further away from the others - This is near where the safe spots for both patterns will be.

Check whether this is a grow pattern or split pattern. Additionally, it is easier to check the safe rock once the AOEs appear. The safe rock AOE’s center will be within one of the lines.

Move to the safe spot with your partner. The stack will resolve at the same time as the AOEs on the ground.

While bossGorai will recenter himself at the start of this mechanic, there is a brief window where he can be moved after the rocks appear. If the tank is quick, they can pull bossGorai closer to the safe spot, giving both melee players a bit more uptime.

Be careful though, if you identify the wrong safe spot, then all players will lose uptime.
