Hi All - In case any progression guilds are in Akheva, here is a rundown of our recent encounter:
Anima of Test killed IV on 11/1/13.
Upon entering IVs room, there are adds lining both walls and also adds surrounding IV. We cleared both walls (which might be unnecessary) and then positioned in the middle of the room just outside of IV aggro range. Since IV is perma-rooted we pulled the adds surrounding him and put the MT on him.
There is a lot of talk about positioning and his AE blind, but for some reason this caused no issues for us in two encounters. We had the MT rotate him to face away from the raid, and everything else was business as usual.
He hits for around 250 Ave, had 500K HP and seemed to single target rampage.
This encounter seemed easier than Va'Dyn overall.
Happy Hunting.
