And in Week 4, Strunraan will arise in Ohn’ahran Plains.

The Zaqali Elders will spawn consistently every week in Zaralek Cavern.

Aurostor the Hibernator

Aurostor is a newly introduced boss in Patch 10.2. You can locate the exact spawn location of this world boss depicted with an Epic World Quest icon on the map of the Emerald Dream.

Fyrrak’s assault on the Emerald Dream has disrupted Aurostor’s regular sleep cycle, prematurely awakening the Furbolg Wild God from his slumber. In his sleep-deprived state, Aurostor attacks any passersby in an attempt to exhaust himself.

Aurostor the Hibernator Overview

Aurostor roams about in a rampage, forcefully knocking players aside with Groggy Bash and sending earth flying with Pulverizing Outburst and Cranky Tantrum. When his energy depletes entirely, he unleashes a Slumberous Roar, sharing his insomniac anguish with nearby players.

Here are some tips for each role when facing Aurostor:

DPS Tips:

• Be cautious of Cranky Tantrum, which fires three straight lines from Aurostor, dealing heavy Physical damage.
• If afflicted with Slumberous Roar, be prepared to fall into a Vulnerable Slumber.

Healer Tips:

• Keep an eye out for Cranky Tantrum, as it inflicts heavy Physical damage in three straight lines from Aurostor.
• Be ready to assist players affected by Slumberous Roar, as they may fall into a Vulnerable Slumber.

Tank Tips:

Vakan and Gholna, powerful djaradin elders, are each a master over their respective element. Gholna, with lava, and Vakan, with shadow flame, are locked in constant conflict over who is stronger. Each elder attempts to outdo the other through devastation and chaos until one is crowned victor.

The Zaqali Elders Overview

During the encounter with Vakan and Gholna, these strategies can help each role:

DPS Tips:

• Watch out for Gholna’s Incineration and Vakan’s Scorching Eclipse, and evade them to avoid damage.

• Stay clear of Lava Geysers created by Gholna, as they erupt and continuously inflict Fire damage to multiple players.

Healer Tips:

• Keep an eye on players affected by Gholna’s Searing Touch and Vakan’s Burning Shadows, and prioritize healing them as needed.
• Be prepared for bursts of damage from Incineration and Scorching Eclipse, and have cooldowns ready to mitigate the impact.

Tank Tips:

• Manage stacks of Searing Touch from Gholna’s Burning Strike and Burning Shadows from Vakan’s Umbral Smash.

Basrikron, The Shale Wing

You will find Basrikron in the Waking Shores.

Basrikron is significantly heavier than his kin and, as such, prefers life on the ground to soaring through the air. Basrikron’s surroundings are his to conquer and allow him to perfect his craft. He speaks, and the ground obeys, allowing him to bring to bear the full might of the earth upon those foolish enough to face him.

Basrikron’s abilities include shaping the earth with Fracturing Tremor and Awaken Crag. When he reaches 100 energy, he takes flight and crashes down with Sundering Crash, destroying Fractured Spires and Awaken Crags.
