Rain of Fear Information & Guides: An Overview | Group Progression & Task List | Raid Progression | Visible Armor
This raid expedition begins with Captain Dunstan Coldheart in the Crystal Caverns (located in a room in the center of the Coldain city, Froststone at -255, 230, -400).
Pre-Requisites for Requesting:
- Completed "An Abundance of Orcs"
- Completed "Ry`Gorr Reconnaissance"
- Completed "Finding the Fear"
- Completed "Into the Caverns of Fear" (mission)
Pre-Requisites for Participating:
- None
Summary
- Speak with Niva Coldmist to trigger Danela's spawn in the pit.
- Engage Danela Icewind and DPS her to 90%.
--- Spawns adds in health-based waves: 1 geonid + 1 spider (spider is mezzable) each wave.
--- Casts random target blind + DOT (move yourself 50' range in any direction to cure the blind).
- Turns into a tentacle terror at 90%; adds stop spawning.
--- 5 Ry`Gorr Miner orcs spawn in various areas above the pit.
------ Orcs do not attack back, but launch AE explosive attacks on random targets as long as they are alive; they can be killed via normal DPS.
--- On the ceiling high above the pit are several objects called "a boulder"; two of these must be dropped on Danela's head to progress the event.
------ You can dislodge a boulder by either nuking it or just waiting for it to become loose and fall on its own (the boulder will visibly shake and emote before falling).
------ Position Danela Icewind under that particular boulder before it falls. To do this, usage of the MA ring is recommended. The MA can target the boulder that is about to fall and Danela's tank can position her inside the MA ring.
------ If a falling boulder misses Danela, it AEs the raid with a nuke + FD.
------ After two boulders have hit her in this manner, she turns back into a Coldain.
- Once back in Coldain forms, she resumes spawning her geonid + spider adds.
- DPS Danela Icewind to 60%.
- Repeat the miners/boulders process.
- DPS Danela Icewind to 30%.
- Repeat the miners/boulders process.
- Kill Danela Icewind (note: does not spawn adds from 30% to death).
