Murder Row Dungeon Journal in Midnight

Kystia ManaheartAlthough an accomplished magister, Kystia Manaheart was far too devoted to fel magic to give it up entirely. Little wonder she's become a staunch supporter and ally to underground fel smuggling operations in the Row.

Overview: Kystia Manaheart is accompanied by her pet mana wyrm Nibbles who is controlled by her [Illicit Infusion]. When this infusion is removed, Nibbles breaks free of Kystia's control and reverts back to her light form to assist players in battle with [Light Infusion].

Kystia Manaheart

Illicit Infusion: Kystia infuses Nibbles with fel magic, turning her hostile to players while she is above 20% health.
Felshield: Kystia enshrouds herself in a fel barrier, reducing the damage she takes by (abs( - 20 * 4))%.
Chaos Barrage: Kystia unleashes a devastating blast of chaos at her current target, dealing 212625 Chaos damage and then jumping to additional nearby enemies at reduced effectiveness.
Fel Nova: Kystia teleports to a random player's location and sends out an explosive wave of destructive energy, inflicting 138668 Fire damage to nearby enemies and knocking them back. (Heroic, Mythic)
Mirror Images: Kystia creates copies of herself nearby, which each cast Felstorm.

Felstorm: Kystia's mirror image engulfs the arena in fel fire, inflicting 18489 Fire damage to all nearby enemies every 1 sec.
Empowered Felshield: Kystia's mirror image gains an empowered version of her shield that protects them from crowd controlling effects.
Felstorm must be interrupted 2 times to remove the shield and each interruption causes the mirror image to teleport away to a random location. (Mythic, Mythic+)

Nibbles

Fel Spray: Nibbles unleashes a spray of fel magic in a cone in front of her, dealing 40 Fire damage to enemies caught in the spray every 1 sec for 5 sec.
Corroding Spittle: Nibbles spits at players, inflicting 27734 Fire damage immediately and 50845 Fire damage every 3 sec for 30 sec. This effect stacks.
Light Infusion: When Nibbles is drained of fel magic, she reverts to her light form and purges Kystia with an infusion of light magic.

Destabilized: The infusion stuns Kystia for 15 sec, bringing her attacks to a halt, increasing all damage she takes by 100%, and unleashing bursts of disorder that inflicts 27734 Chaos damage to all players every 1 sec.
Additionally, this reduces the effectiveness of Kystia's Felshield.

Zaen Bladesorrow

Clever, quick-witted and commanding, Zaen Bladesorrow oversees the shipments of illegal fel artifacts. Those under his command follow his orders to the letter... or pay the price.

Overview: Zaen Bladesorrow demonstrates how this town got its name by occassionally casting [Murder in a Row] at all players. Dodge his deadly aim by taking cover to avoid heavy damage.

maximum health by 50% and inflicts 507733 Nature damage over 20 sec.

Xathuux the Annihilator

Xathuux the Annihilator is one of Lithiel Cinderfury's most powerful summons. Although he loathes serving the warlock, he will follow her commands not out of loyalty, but for the sheer visceral joy of destruction.

During [Demonic Rage] Xathuux the Annihilator gains [Burning Steps].

Lithiel Cinderfury

Lithiel Cinderfury sees the Voidstorm above Silvermoon as both threat and opportunity. Her people are afraid, and she has a perfect solution... the power of fel. She claims her smuggling operation protects her people from the dangers above, but the profits she receives are a pleasing bonus.

Overview: [Fingers of Gul'dan] will summon Wild Imps near every target.
After casting [Fingers of Gul'dan] Lithiel Cinderfury casts [Demonic Gateway] to escape and then begins casting [Malefic Wave].
[Malefic Wave] slowly expands over a large area inflicts heavy damage along with lingering damage over time.

Felshield: Lithiel enshrouds herself in a fel barrier, reducing the damage she takes by 50% for 10 sec.

The Mirror Images is not an ability that will show as a castbar to be interrupted. Kystia will call her mirror images, and they are the ones who need to be interrupted. Their ability is Felstorm. Interrupt and burn the images.

How do you do this dungeon for the quest Murder Row: One Fel Swoop with followers?

Comment by TheStatman

Murder Row drops a few profession recipes and a Housing Decor item from the dungeon's last boss, Lothraxion.

Didn't know Lothraxion had a side gig cosplaying as Lithiel Cinderfury.
