Ice Veins Strategy Guide

 

4. TLDR

Below is a TL;DR of how to handle Elerethe's abilities. This should be used to familiarize yourself with the boss' abilities, and not as a blueprint for success.

4.1. Tanks

  • During Spider form, take turns tanking Spiderlings to manage applications of Dripping Fangs Icon Dripping Fangs.
  • During Roc form, quickly taunt Elerethe after Raking Talons Icon Raking Talons.
  • During Roc form, pick up a Shimmering Feather Icon Shimmering Feather to speed your way across platforms.
  • Mythic: Keep Venomous Spiderlings away from the boss or they will grant her stacks of Swarm Icon Swarm.

4.2. Healers

  • During Spider form, heal allies connected by Web of Pain Icon Web of Pain.
  • During Roc form, beware of potential high damage during Gathering Clouds Icon Gathering Clouds and Dark Storm Icon Dark Storm.
    • Pay special attention to players debuffed with Necrotic Venom Icon Necrotic Venom who cannot stack with the raid during Gathering Clouds (they will be taking damage from both abilities).

4.3. DPS

  • During Spider form, stand apart from the raid during Necrotic Venom Icon Necrotic Venom to place venomous pools.
  • During Roc form, place Twisting Shadows Icon Twisting Shadows away from the raid.
  • Kill Venomous Spiderlings.

Spider, platform switch, bird.  Spider, platform switch, bird.  Spider, platform switch, bird.  Etc.

Spider:
-Tanks take turns picking up spider adds from the Feeding Time meteor ability, and tanking them away from the boss.
-raid, move the venom debuff away from everyone else super, super fast.  don't stand near anyone until the disease is gone.
-Stay within 20 yards of anyone you're Web Linked to (may only be tanks)
-Move way away from her ambush/feeding time meteor to reduce damage.

Platform Switch:
-Stand against a wall whenever possible during the first part of the transition to negate the pushback.  
-Spam heal anyone that still has the poison debuff during the pushback, they will not be able to stack on the rest of the raid (please, please don't stack on the rest of the raid.)
-Tanks and Healers grab the feathers and fly over to the other platform, everyone else grab leftover feathers or walk across the bridge.  Avoid the tornadoes and the eggs.  Kill any spawned spiders.
-Anyone with the feather buff can supposedly insta-gib any spiders.  Not sure if that's accurate.  Not sure if a lot of this information is accurate....

Bird:
-Move the tornado debuff away from the raid.  Clear out the venom spots with it before the tornado actually spawns if you're able to.
-Don't be in front of the bird ever, especially when she turns and casts Razor Wing.
-Raking Talons might be a tank-fucking ability requiring cooldowns and swapping, but I only saw it in one place that I looked when researching this.  We'll see!
