This achievement is by far the hardest in the glory. It requires a lot of coordination and 1 mistake will fail it. There are more walls than wall breaks meaning you will run out of space eventually.

The regular fight has it this way to make it a dps check, however that same mechanic makes this achievement VERY hard to get. 18 is an absurd number or 4th walls to break because you essentially cannot miss a single break.

Comment by schnizol

You have to stack them evenly from one side, e.g. starting from right - no real safe lane - just keep stacking to 4 and adding next rows - always spread break to get 4ths and you can get it done just in time with very little room for mistakes

Comment by TheLizardSerena

Without a doubt the hardest achievement in the meta. DPS is not going to be a massive concern because you're going to push the fight all the way to the 'berserk' so I'd recommend as many healers as needed so you can largely ignore all mechanical damage. Don't worry too much about having a safe lane or positioning players to only take 1 stack of the DoT etc. You can just bring lots of healers and ignore all the damage and focus on the wall placement.

To give you a bit of a rundown, there are 6 lanes and the walls can safely stack up to 5 rows of wall per lane (a 6th wall in one lane will equal a wipe).

Each cycle, the boss will mark for walls 3 players, then 1 player, then 3 more players, giving you a total of 7 walls. Then you will get 4 players with the knockback, allowing you to destroy 4 walls.

First, we had the first 4 walls stack in Lane 1 and the remaining 3 in lane 2. Then with the first set of knockbacks, we smashed the 4th wall in Lane 1 and just avoided walls with the other 3 knockbacks. For the second cycle, we built up 4 walls in Lanes 1, 2 and 3 and used 3 knockbacks to destroy the 4th wall in each of those. For all subsequent cycles, we were able to destroy a 4th wall in Lane 1, 2, 3 and 4 with all 4 knockbacks.

This meant our cycles for the achievement tally looked like this for number of 4th walls destroyed: 1 -> 4 -> 8 -> 12 -> 16 -> 20

By the end of the 6th cycle, we had almost every lane full. You might be able to squeeze in a 7th cycle for another 2-3 breaks if needed. After the 7th cycle it's 100% going to hit 6 walls in a lane and the boss will kill the raid with berserk.

Make sure you bring the boss to ~10% and then stop damage until you've got your 6th/7th cycle with all 18 breaks... then nuke it hard before you run out of space!

Of Mice and Manaforges
During the phase where you need to run up to the boss again, there will spawn small mice that you catch by simply moving over them. Once you've done so you get a debuff. You need to play all three intermissions as the number of raid people are split between the phases. So if you're 9 raiders it'll be 3/3/3. They may spawn in the beginning of the corridor when you're in the last part of the corridor.

Time to Vote! Cute or Scary?
Before you pull the boss, target it and either everyone writes /cuddle or /cower. Cowering the boss will make the boss do +15% damage and cuddling the boss will make the boss take -15% less damage.

Mother of All Tantrums
In the four corners of the boss room there's small pads. Click on them during the fight and kill all four ads to get the achievement.

Cheat Meal
During the fight you need to keep one Arcane Echo alive. In the intermission, once the boss reaches 100 energy, you need to drag the Arcane Echo into the blue beam in the middle of the room. Continue progressing the fight without killing the add just yet. In the last phase of the fight the boss will spawn small Void Manifestation adds. Kite the Arcane Echo over these small adds and it'll transform into a Void Forged Echo. You can now kill the add before you kill the boss and you'll get the achievement.

I See... Absolutely Nothing
Outside the boss arena there's a few tents with some boxes next to them. On top of one of the boxes is a blindfold. Everyone in the raid has to pick this item up, and during the boss fight everyone has to click the extra action button and survive for one full minute. The easiest way is to click it at the beginning, and everyone uses it at the same time. After one minute has passed and everyone can see again, you're free to kill the boss and get the achievement.

Breaking the Fourth Wall
Pretty straight forward achievement. Line the walls up so that there's four walls stacked, and then make sure you break the fourth wall 18 times. It doesn't have to be in a row, but make sure you don't accidentally break too many walls in a line, so you make sure to get at least one fourth wall every break-session.

King's Ransom
Walk past the platform that teleports you to the boss, and continue until you see a black swirlie on the edge of the platform. Move closer to it and Nexus-Princess Ky'veza will appear. Talk to her and follow the dialogue. This will make her appear in the boss fight. Simply kill the boss like normal to get the achievement. You do need to dodge her classic knife-attack spell.

Defying Gravity
Simply make everyone get lifted up by the Reverse Gravity in Phase 1 during the fight, and you'll get this achievement. Rotate people in and out with the debuff. Very simple and straight forward achievement!

Comment by Bukama

For our group this was the second hardest achievement (after plexus), mostly because some players were unable to count up to 5.

In addition to the great comment by TheLizardSerena :

* Have everybody installed Instance Achievement Tracker so they see the notes of counting walls
* Have ONE and only ONE players making calls in voice how many go to which line, and speak who goes where
* Have all players, including ranges, moving close to the boss when having lines, so it's easier to see who is where. Yes there are the arrows from the boss which follows the players, but when everybody is on the right side and the next call is to break three lines on the left all of them are moving to the same direction - so seeing them and where they stop is easier. Oh and of course SPEAK TO EACH OTHER in voice.
* You can miss two single breaks (meaning have a 5th wal), but if you fail more you should reset as you run out of space/breaks.
* Bring the boss down to 30-25% and then stop DPS until you have the achievement criteria

Video Guide on how to get all the Glory of the Omega Raider achievements: https://youtu.be/cAtUHEE79_Y

To get the achievement you need to break 18 4th ice walls. This achievement requires some coordination. Start building walls from left to right to keep everything organized and it’s easier to track. So first 3 on the furthest crystal, then one more to have 4 and two on the next crystal. Then just simply break off the fourth wall, and keep going until you do this 18 times. But for this to work, players that break walls need to ALWAYS break a wall, even if it’s not a fourth wall. This will keep them from accumulating too much cos at some point you’ll end up with 5 walls everywhere and not enough breaks to get rid of them, and the beam will reach boss and wipe the raid. So pile up to 4 walls, and always break 3 walls. Remember to care for the walls being stacked by the tank as well.

Comment by PlebTM

DO NOT BREAK MORE THEN 18! We just lost the run from doing 3 breaks on last one and got 19/18 it has to be exact...

Comment by temperic

For those who want, I did a google document (french and english) with the strat we made with my community (Insanity). We managed to do it first try, I suggest the RL to die in crystal laser at start of the fight (without armor, you die in like 4s. Don't die under boss cause he will be infront of your camera) so he can lead easily. With a group of high gear people, no need to stress on the dps. Just be sure to have the boss around 15% + bl ready when you complete the archivement cause he will enrage soon after.

Comment by v3lv3t88

Like temperic below I also made a Google Sheet, but it's in english and more understandable. First page has the calculations on it for all rotations (walls, tank wall, walls, break) and the tabs have an easy to understand visual of the walls for each of those rotations.
6 rotations is the minimum you need, 7 is the maximum you have, the 8th rotation will cause a lane to get 6 walls and kill everyone. If you do it flawless, you have 1,5 more rotations to kill him before you run out of room and inevitably get a 6th wall in one of the lanes,
On normal it's easily doable with good coördination. There's no need to worry about the DPS and the enrage, you have plenty of time and if the raid is geared you will actually have to hold back dps to not kill him too soon.
Just hover him between 10-15% before breaking the last walls and burst him down.

Comment by TheCheat54

After my earlier reply on someone else's comment about it, I decided to set out and attempt to modify Liquid's Fractilus wall assignments to facilitate completion of this achievement.

The (as-yet untested) outcome is here: https://wago.io/tfAbGptRF

If your entire group imports this over the existing Liquid MFO auras and pulls the boss on Normal difficulty, the ordering should get you the achievement if followed to the letter. The ordering follows TheLizardSerena's strategy in their comment elsewhere on this page. To revert, you'd re-import the original pack.

Comment by wjts

If you want a bit of easier time on this boss and you are familiar with Liquid Manaforge weakauras (make sure everyone has the same version, see wago for marker placement, etc. normal raid stuff) you can use this mrt note (its only for 6 rotations). Tested it today with my guild, works perfect, no need to call anything, just follow your marks.

Comment by BoroTuralyon

I just did this in a pug group and I was the raid lead and was calling out where everybody went on discord. I did look at these comments and it helped me a bit but I want to make this comment really simple. I did this on normal difficulty and I would not advise doing it on heroic/mythic because the stacks might not be able to be healed through. You want raid lead to not wear any gear go dps spec and pull boss and die. You want 6 markers going across orange yellow purple blue green red (1 to 6) and start at orange working your way towards red. So here is the order cause its all cycles and one cycle is 3 wall creates 1 wall create (from the tank) 3 wall creates and 4 wall breaks......4 combos = 1 cycle......you will need AT LEAST 6 cycles to do this so don't panic going OVER 6 cycles as that is the MINIMUM......ok here is the order, I wrote this down on a piece of paper as raid lead so I did it the old school way....
CYCLE 1: 3 orange (non tank) THEN 1 orange (tank) THEN 3 yellow (nontank) THEN BREAKS ARE 1 ORANGE and 3 YELLOW = cycle one complete
CYCLE 2: 1 orange and 2 yellow (non tank) THEN 1 yellow (tank) THEN 1 yellow 2 purple (nontank) THEN BREAKS ARE 1 ORANGE 1 YELLOW 2 PURPLE = cycle two complete
CYCLE 3: 1 orange 1 yellow 1 purple (non tank) THEN 1 purple (tank) THEN 2 purple 1 blue (non tank) THEN BREAKS ARE 1 ORANGE 1 YELLOW 1 PURPLE 1 BLUE = cycle three complete
CYCLE 4: 1 orange 1 yellow 1 purple (non tank) THEN 1 blue (tank) THEN 2 blue 1 green (non tank) THEN BREAKS ARE 1 ORANGE 1 YELLOW 1 PURPLE 1 BLUE = cycle four complete
CYCLE 5: 1 orange 1 yellow 1 purple (non tank) THEN 1 blue (tank) THEN 3 green THEN BREAKS ARE 1 ORANGE 1 YELLOW 1 PURPLE 1 BLUE = cycle 5 complete
CYCLE 6: 1 orange 1 yellow 1 purple (non tank) THEN 1 blue (tank) THEN 3 red THEN BREAKS ARE 1 ORANGE 1 YELLOW 1 PURPLE 1 BLUE = cycle 6 complete
CYCLE 7: 1 orange 1 yellow 1 purple (non tank) THEN 1 blue (tank) THEN 1 green 2 red (non tank) THEN BREAKS ARE 1 ORANGE 1 YELLOW 1 PURPLE 1 BLUE = cycle 7 complete

at this point you timewarp and kill boss = gg

CYCLE 8: (as boss is dying ) 1 orange 1 yellow 1 purple THEN 1 blue (tank) THEN 1 orange 1 yellow 1 purple (non tank) THEN BREAKS ARE 2 orange 2 yellow = cycle 8 complete

there is no cycle 9 cause i would not advise getting into 9 cycles

Now you are saying "oh I don't understand this or omg a wall of text or why are you saying orange yellow purple blue green red ( well its the color markers going from left to right, yes saying it again cause people get intimidated by comments that are long winded like this one but the achievement is long winded as well so you have to take appropriate measures to be effective!

I will say cycle 1 breaks 1 4th wall cycle 2 breaks 2 4th wall cycle 3 breaks 3 4th walls cycle 4 5 6 7 break 4 4th walls so you got 20 4th walls by the time cycle 7 is done

There will be negative votes on this only because it is not "addon friendly" and has to be written down "manually" and in a world of convenience with addons this comment will get negative votes cause it is a wall of text or not addon friendly. If you want to break the 4th wall you have to have a wall of text sorry no shortcuts!

I want to add I tried this another time in a different group and it did not work out as planned. Some people didn't make it to the color markers in time. Some people just don't get it. If you are in a group like that this won't work. Maybe in future expansions where you take little to no damage from the enrage and you can solo the achievement would be feasible but that is "thinking in the future expansions" when nerfs happen like you outgear the old content. I can see this achievment being soloable someday in the future if the bosses enrage goes away like some kind of nerf but at the moment this achievement can be very tedious with people putting the wall creates/breaks on the wrong markers.

Comment by Peacemoon

According to IAT we got 19/18 but when we killed the boss, no achievement. I'd advise people to track the achievement from the achievement window, and wait for the text to go white before killing him.

Comment by Turowai

This was the hardest achy of the night

some notes:
- We stacked walls from the left, and had tanks on the far right together
- We used wall breaks only on lanes that had 4 walls on (so the first break, we broke 1 on the furthest left, 1 on the 2nd left, and left the last 2 breaks on empty space). This meant we weren't resetting any to 0 for nothing.
- We did have someone trying to be extra helpful and call out the exact same lanes that our lead (me) was. Many people found that more jarring, so we had the helpful extra be silent. It really is better to have just 1 person call where to go to avoid confusion. I spent basically the whole fight just looking at the lanes and calling which to add to/break, just doing auto attacks.
- Damage isn't really an issue, we had to fully stop all damage for a while near the end before the final break
- if you have a 5th wall on a lane, giving it 2 breaks DOES count, as you're breaking a 5th and a 4th wall. We were forced to use this on our final break, as we were on 17/18, and all 6 lanes at 5 walls. The final break we just had 2 people stack on same one, then nuked boss (was at 5-10% health) and hoped for the best... luckily, at 18/18 there, we were all good :)
- Tanks should absolutely not go tickling the boss too close... one of ours got too close +got knocked back... which subsequently failed that run, as he got knocked into a lane with 5 walls on, with the tank-wall-adding ability (so turned that 5 into a 6...). Derp

- This achy really should have only had like... 10... 15 at most, breaks... 18 really is borderline 'need to be perfect coordination' to do it >.<

Comment by xLunacyx

In my raid we went from 14/18, 15/18, Criteria Met
so maybe it's stealth nerfed to less than 18 now?

Comment by nyysjs

My group couldn't get the weakaura (https://wago.io/tfAbGptRF) to work correctly for everyone at the same time. (Also it is audio-only, which meant it was really hard to listen to/follow). However, in the weakaura UI (open the weakaura, then go to "actions," then click expand), it actually just shows you where everywhere is supposed to stand. We were eventually successful being micromanaged by our raid leader (as always) who was following those directions.

Achievement tracker is A MUST.

Comment by Broccoliz

Using the strategy by Wjts above for the Liquid pack, I converted it to the Northern Sky syntax for the achievement. Thank you Wjts for the great strategy!

Simply copy/paste this into an ERT to share with your raid if you are using the Northern Sky assignment pack.
