地狱火守卫s attack tanks with 邪能打击, and will use 执盾飞跃冲击 to rush to and damage players at range

After 执盾飞跃冲击, the Guardian gains 强化邪能打击, and tanks should use a CD to survive.

地狱织邪者s will channel 地火滔天 on random players, which healers should dispel. 地火滔天 cannot be conventionally interrupted, but stuns, incapacitates, knock-backs, and other similar effects will also break the channel.

Fel Hellweavers also cast 邪能火球 at random targets; and they summon an 毁灭宝珠 that players should move away from.

邪触先知s will cast 邪能灼疗 on their allies, dealing 10% of their life in damage, then healing for 5% of their life each second for up to 8 seconds unless the 邪能灼疗 buff is removed.

Seers also cast 邪能熔岩光束 at tanks, which will chain to up to four additional players, typically the melee DPS.

The 蹒跚的蛮兵 casts 邪能重击 approximately every 20 seconds, creating a line of 邪能喷泉s in front of him; players within 3 yards of these Geysers will take moderate Fire damage and be knocked back.

Additionally, Shambling Hulk will cast 野蛮怒吼, dealing raid-wide Physical damage. This ability is used more frequently as the Hulk reaches lower health.

邪能灼疗钢铁劳工血缚刺客

Iron Peons are fairly harmless, but will occasionally attack random players with 投掷战锤 or target the raid with 炸药箱冲击.

Gorebound Assassins are stealthed, and when a player walks into their range, will de-stealth and use 偷袭 on the nearest target.

偷袭 stuns the targeted player for five seconds, and the Assassin will fixate their melee attacks on that player for the duration of the stun.

Additionally, Assassins will periodically target a random player with 邪能污秽, which can be removed by poison-dispelling effects such as 清洁术 or 清创生血.

Return to Table of ContentsPits of Mannoroth

In the center of the room, 托多弗 is surrounded by three casters - a 邪能萃魔者, 暗影灌魔者, and a 邪能引火者

Patrolling around the edge of the room is a 鹰眼戈隆追猎者, an 装甲碎颅者, and a 冷酷伏击者

Two Shadow Infusers are channeling spells on 索沃克 at the Shadowy Pool

Two Fiery Enkindlers are channeling spells on 莫克隆 at the Fiery Pool

Four Fel Extractors are channeling spells on Kormrok at the Foul Pool - pulling them does not engage Kormrok

The Armored Skullsmasher will 后旋踢 the current tank, knocking him back and dealing heavy damage. He will then use 冲锋打击 to rush to a distant enemy's location, dealing moderate damage to players at the end of the path. After returning to the tank, he will then use 强力碾压, knocking back and injuring all players within 5 yards.

The Keen-Eyed Gronnstalker targets tanks with 射击, will cast 多重射击 in random directions, and throws out 炉渣陷阱s that will deal heavy fire damage to nearby players when detonated.

The Grim Ambusher simply melees the tank, and will leap around occasionally.

多重射击炉渣陷阱冲锋打击后旋踢猛击攫取之手猛击攫取之手

Upon completing the cast, three small ripples in the ground will travel to three randomly-chosen players

When the ripples reach their destination, a large rune will form and a 攫取之手 will emerge immediately if there is still a player standing in that location

These Grasping Hands damage any trapped players with 重碾, dealing moderate damage every three seconds for as long as the player is trapped.

A player trapped in this manner can still cast, but cannot move

Players must free trapped allies by killing the Grasping Hands quickly

If a targeted player moves to avoid the ground ripple, a large red rune will appear on the ground where that player had been standing when the 攫取之手 cast finished; any players walking into this rune will trigger a Grasping Hand to 重碾 them

重碾not搅动暗影残渣

Sovokk, who stands in the Shadow Energy pool, will cast 重击 on the current tank, just as Kormrok will when empowered by Shadow Energy

重击 deals heavy damage and knocks the tank back a long distance; the tank will take additional 冲击力 damage when landing

冲击力 deals less damage the further the tank moves, so tanks should face Sovokk away from any nearby walls

The other tank should taunt Sovokk when 重击 occurs

Morkronn, who stands in the Explosive Energy pool, will cast 定向爆破 on the current tank, similar to Kormrok's 爆裂冲击 mechanic when empowered by Explosive Energy

The affected tank is rooted in place and will explode after 10 seconds, dealing heavy fire damage to all raid members within 40 yards

The off-tank should taunt Morkronn when this occurs, and drag Morkronn away from the rooted tank

The rest of the raid should run away from the rooted tank until the explosion occurs

搅动原始能量

原始能量 ticks for moderate Nature damage every 3 seconds for 12 seconds

Each time 原始能量 ticks on a target, players within 5 yards of that target will also take the damage

Targeted players should move away from nearby allies to avoid splashing damage onto the raid

Fel Extractors cannot be conventionally interrupted during the 原始能量 channel, but stuns, incapacitates, knock-backs, and other similar effects will break the channel

暗影残渣

暗影残渣 deals moderate Shadow damage every 3 seconds for 12 seconds

Each time it ticks on the player, a pool of 暗影残渣 forms under the player's current location

Standing in the pool will deal moderate Shadow damage every second

Players affected by 暗影残渣 should run away from the raid to drop the first pool, and try to drop all subsequent pools nearby to take up less space

Note that, although the affected player has an icon over their head resembling the Fear icon, the player is not actually feared; targeted players retain full control of their character

Shadow Infusers cannot be conventionally interrupted during the 暗影残渣 channel, but stuns, incapacitates, knock-backs, and other similar effects will break the channel

集火

集火 causes the targeted player to erupt every 3 seconds for 12 seconds

Each eruption deals a very heavy amount of Fire damage, evenly split amongst all allies within 5 yards

Taking a 集火 tick alone will almost always result in death

All members of the raid not currently affected by 原始能量, Grasping Hands, or 暗影残渣 should stack on the targeted player to share the explosion damage

The 集火 graphics are more subtle than 原始能量 or 暗影残渣, so players should be vocal with their raid when affected

Fiery Enkindlers cannot be conventionally interrupted during the 集火 channel, but stuns, incapacitates, knock-backs, and other similar effects will break the channel

Return to Table of ContentsKormrok Encounter Mechanics重击爆炸符文攫取之手邪能暗流

Players can choose which abilities they would like to have empowered next by controlling Kormrok's positioning

When Kormrok Leaps to a pool, the raid will take moderate damage from 泼溅, 泼溅, or 泼溅

The Fiery Pool at the south of the room will imbue Kormrok with Explosive Energy, granting 强化爆炸符文 and 爆裂冲击

The Foul Pool at the northwest of the room will imbue Kormrok with Foul Energy, granting 牵引之手 and 邪污碾压

The Shadowy Pool at the east of the room will imbue Kormrok with Shadow Energy, granting 强化邪能暗流 and 重击

Kormrok cannot return to a pool he has already visited until he has visited each of the three pools

Pound重击

These shockwaves splash damage on to nearby players

The raid must maintain a 4-yard spread for the duration of 重击

重击 is not associated with any energy type and therefore does not have an empowered version

The danger of 重击 - which deals only moderate damage when the raid is properly spread - is in its overlap with Kormrok's other abilities

Return to Table of ContentsExplosive Runes爆炸符文

If an 爆炸符文 fades naturally without being triggered, the entire raid will take heavy Fire damage

If an 爆炸符文 is triggered by a player, the Rune deals a smaller amount of damage in an 8-yard radius

Players should use personal damage-reduction cooldowns before triggering the 爆炸符文s

Be sure not to detonate a Rune when other players are within range of its explosion

强化爆炸符文

These Runes do not disappear when triggered, but instead attempt to reform several yards in front of the player who triggered the Rune

These Runes only stop reforming if two Runes would form in the same location, or when it is the only Rune left to be triggered

Five of these 爆炸符文s will spawn each time Kormrok uses this ability, in a roughly pentagonal formation

Players must act quickly, but in a controlled fashion, to force Runes into the center of the pentagon so that they will overlap and despawn

Since this is a somewhat delicate operation, raids should designate a team of several Rune "stompers" to handle this mechanic reliably

The ideal players for this would have damage reduction cooldowns and some capacity to continue performing their role while moving

爆裂冲击

The affected tank will detonate 10 seconds later, dealing heavy Fire damage to all players within 30 yards

The off-tank should taunt Kormrok and move him away from the 爆裂冲击 radius to prevent players taking any damage

Once 爆裂冲击 detonates, the affected tank gains 邪能之触, and should not tank the boss again until 邪能之触 fades

Return to Table of ContentsGrasping Hands攫取之手抓取重碾

抓取 deals a small burst of damage to each player and all targets within 4 yards

Once formed, the hands will 重碾 players, dealing moderate Nature damage, until the 攫取之手 is killed

Players cannot stack tightly for this ability without risking a raid wipe from 抓取's splash damage

Instead, stack in small clumps of 4-5 players, each clump about 5 yards apart, and use damage-reduction cooldowns to mitigate the initial splash damage

This should allow AoE abilities to efficiently damage all the Hands

牵引之手

牵引之手 will summon a hand to 抓取 and 重碾 each player, dealing an initial burst of splash damage and increasing Nature damage over time

These Hands will also move towards the nearest energy pool

If the Hands are not destroyed by the time they reach the energy pool, players will take extremely heavy damage from entering the pool

As with 攫取之手, players should stack up in small clumps before 牵引之手 is cast

The stack points should be far enough away from the pools to give players adequate time to damage the Hands before reaching the edge of a pool, but significantly closer to one pool so that the Hands all go in the same direction

Players are able to cast freely while the 牵引之手s are moving

邪污碾压粉碎之手

This stuns and roots the tank in place, and deals ramping damage to the tank until the Crushing Hand is destroyed

Players should rapidly switch to the Crushing Hand to free their tank

The off-tank should taunt Kormrok as soon as the Crushing Hand has spawned

Once the Crushing Hand is destroyed, the affected tank gains 邪能之触, and should not tank the boss again until 邪能之触 fades

Return to Table of ContentsFel Outpouring邪能暗流暗影血球

These globules move in an erratic pattern and deal heavy damage to any player that passes through them

The globules spread out the further away from the Shadowy Pool they get

The easiest place to dodge these globules is from the center of the room or somewhat nearer to the Fiery or Foul Pools

强化邪能暗流

This summons globules from all three of the Runic Pools around the edge of the room

All of the globules deal very heavy damage to players standing in them

This ability is very difficult to dodge and will require the raid to move for an extended period of time

The simplest way to dodge the 强化邪能暗流 is to stand nearer to one pool than the rest, move through the oncoming set of globules from that nearby pool as soon as there are gaps - to eliminate ever having to dodge that pool's globules again - and then move carefully to dodge the globules coming from the other two pools

重击

The tank will take damage again upon landing, due to 冲击力

Tanks should position Kormrok to avoid being knocked into any of the energy pools on the side of the room and should not put their backs to a wall for this ability

Aiming the 重击 toward the entrance to the encounter area is the safest way of reducing tank damage

After being affected by 重击, that tank gains 邪能之触, and should not tank the boss again until 邪能之触 fades

激怒激怒Return to Table of ContentsKormrok Strategy Summary

Tank Kormrok near the pool you wish for Kormrok to use next, cycling through all three pools before returning to the first

The easiest order is Fiery > Foul > Shadowy, limiting the number of 强化邪能暗流 casts your raid must deal with

When Kormrok gains 激怒, he will deal more tank damage and use all abilities more frequently

Always trigger all of the 爆炸符文s; a Rune that expires on its own is likely to wipe the raid

Assign a group of players to clear the 强化爆炸符文

Stack up in small clumps for 攫取之手/牵引之手 and use AoE to quickly kill them

DPS should prioritize 攫取之手/牵引之手, then the Crushing Hand (when applicable), then Kormrok

Spread out for 重击 and use raid CDs to heal through the damage

Avoid the globules during 邪能暗流 and 强化邪能暗流

Tanks should swap duties each time the current tank is affected by 爆裂冲击, 重击, or 邪污碾压

爆炸符文攫取之手邪能暗流

Explosive Energy order: 强化爆炸符文, 重击, 攫取之手, 邪能暗流, 重击, 强化爆炸符文

Foul Energy order: 牵引之手, 重击, 邪能暗流, 爆炸符文s, 重击, 牵引之手

Shadow Energy order: 强化邪能暗流, 重击, 爆炸符文s, 攫取之手, 重击, 强化邪能暗流

Tank Responsibilities

Position Kormrok near the pool your raid wishes to activate next

Do not chase Kormrok when he leaps into a pool, as the pool deals extremely heavy damage every second

After Kormrok leaps to a pool, reposition him so melee do not have to stand in the pool to DPS

Use damage-reduction cooldowns for the 重击, 邪污碾压, and 爆裂冲击 abilities

When the current tank is affected by one of the above abilities, the off-tank should taunt

When 爆裂冲击 occurs, move the boss outside of the 30-yard Blast radius

If Kormrok is affected by Shadow Energy, position so that 重击 does not knock you into a wall or the slime pools

Take care to avoid 邪能暗流 and 强化邪能暗流, and only participate in popping 爆炸符文s if you have a damage-reduction cooldown available

Damage-Dealer Responsibilities

Use DPS CDs for AoEing the 攫取之手 and 牵引之手

Stack up into small clumps just before 攫取之手 or 牵引之手 to allow for efficient AoE

Swap to the Crushing Hand to free the tank from 邪污碾压

Use a personal damage-reduction cooldown when activating the 爆炸符文s, especially during 重击

Designated players should activate the 强化爆炸符文, aiming them toward the center of the pentagon shape they create

Spread out for the duration of 重击, to avoid splashing damage onto nearby allies

Take care to avoid 邪能暗流 and 强化邪能暗流

Healer Responsibilities

Use raid cooldowns for 重击 and 攫取之手 or 牵引之手, with strong CDs for times when these abilities overlap

Each time Kormrok leaps into a pool, the raid will take a single hit of damage - line up AoE effects for these times

Players triggering 爆炸符文s, or especially 强化爆炸符文, will require extra single-target healing

Use single-target damage-reduction cooldowns on tanks for 邪污碾压 and 重击

Stack up just before 攫取之手 or 牵引之手 so DPS can break you free

Use a personal damage-reduction cooldown when activating 爆炸符文s, especially during 重击

Spread out for the duration of 重击, to avoid splashing damage onto nearby allies

Take care to avoid 邪能暗流 and 强化邪能暗流

Return to Table of ContentsWhen to Use Bloodlust/Heroism/Time Warp激怒嗜血英勇时间扭曲When to Use Legendary Ring Effects嗜血英勇时间扭曲攫取之手牵引之手

The adds have very little health and can easily die within the 15-second duration of the ring buff

Kormrok's health matters since the 激怒 effect is on a timer

It is slightly better to use the ring buff to empower your AoE damage on the Hands, and then for the explosion to detonate onto Kormrok

This has the effect of translating your raid's efficient AoE into powerful single-target DPS

重击攫取之手牵引之手重击爆裂冲击邪污碾压激怒Return to Table of ContentsLooking For Raid Difficulty重击

For example, if Kormrok leaps to the Foul Pool and gains 邪污能量, he will use 攫取之手 three times

He does not gain any of the tank debuff mechanics, and will not cast other pools' ability outside of being imbued with its energy buff

After using the third charge of the 邪污能量 ability, he will leap to the next nearest pool and gain a new ability

During 爆炸能量, players should spread out and use a personal damage-reduction CD to trigger the 爆炸符文s.

During 邪污能量, players should clump loosely behind the boss for 攫取之手, and quickly kill the 攫取之手 with AoE damage to free all allies

During 暗影能量, players should move away from the Shadowy Pool and dodge the incoming waves from 邪能暗流

During all phases, players should spread out about 5 yards from one another during 重击

攫取之手邪污能量重击攫取之手Return to Table of ContentsHeroic Difficulty3爆炸符文强化爆炸符文强化爆炸符文强化邪能暗流Return to Table of ContentsMythic Difficulty炽炎残渣邪污残渣暗影残渣爆炸符文重击暗影能量邪污能量爆炸能量four

Kormrok uses an empowered ability twice during the 2 minutes after first gaining access to it, and then once in each subsequent Leap "phase"

This means that, once the raid has reached the third Leap phase, all abilities will be empowered for the rest of the encounter

The order of abilities may differ slightly from what is listed earlier in this guide, since some empowered abilities have longer cooldowns

暗影能量 should still be the third empowerment the raid grants Kormrok, so that you have at least two phases without having to deal with 强化邪能暗流

Videos from PTR testing of Normal mode Kormrok show that players are able to bounce Kormrok between two pools, ignoring the third pool entirely. However, I believe this is a bug and doubt the encounter will go live with this behaviour. So I'm not updating the guide to reflect this strategy until I see the fight when it goes live. :)

I think you meant the following under the Kormrok Strategy Summary:

Explosive Energy order: Empowered Explosive Runes, Pound, Grasping Hands, Fel Outpouring, Pound, Empowered Explosive Runes

Great guides Dayani, very thorough. Thank you very much.

评论来自 Bowtome

are tanks suppose to get caught by hands your guide says no but as a tank i am.

评论来自 Dayani

6/26 - Made several changes to the guide:

Tanks are now affected by Grasping/Dragging Hands, and the guide now reflects that
Added some information about the Enrage mechanic - specifically that it's still not clear what causes it, but I think it may be related to trying, and failing because it's not possible, to get Kormrok to bounce between two pools and ignore the third. More SCIENCE is needed.
Added a Heroic section, as the buff Kormrok gains from leaping into a pool empowers the next 3 casts of the associated ability, rather than 2
Updated the graphic for Mythic residue soaking to reflect changes to the encounter in the final PTR test

评论来自 Foxpaw

It is incredibly frustrating when you have raid members trying to help with the empowered runes but who don't seem to fully realize the whole "facing" aspect of it and knock the runes *away* instead of *together* :T

We did it earlier tonight and I found that hunters can handle the rune stomping exceptionally well; you should be able to move a rune twice with a single well-timed deterrence without taking any damage.

评论来自 slaymordor

this boss fight can get frustrating at times

we use hunters for the runes but a dk with anti magic shel can do a decent job

we tried bouncing kormok but it seems impossible

Runes and dragging hands are the bottleneck of this fight in our opinion

评论来自 urfurf

Enrage does seem to happen on LFR difficulty as well.

评论来自 367872

One minor tweak, Dayani - I'd recommend linking this tooltip for Explosive Rune, at least in the intro section, to support the text for why we're stepping on these explodey things. The Rune tooltip you have linked mentions the personal damage but not the raidwide damage.

Love the guide, as always.
