Ascent of the Awakened X2
Trash Mobs
There are 4 floors to this zone. The layout is just like Palace of the Awakened. Each floor has a boss that drops an eye which is required to get access to the x4 zone where Talendor and Gorenair reside. All of the mobs on the 3rd and 4th floor have Single group DOT's. It is imperative that no one in the 2nd group pull aggro as it's no fun trying to cure 2 group's worth of dots. The mobs in this zone repop until you kill the boss on each floor. This stops the repops. Each floor also has a resist focus.
1st Floor: Slashing
2nd Floor: Magic and Mental
3rd Floor: Cold
4th Floor: Heat

Named Monsters
Prophet of the Slashing Talon
- Mob Health: 440,000
- Auto-Attack Type: Slashing
- Special Attacks:
- Slashing Talon - Slashing Barrage DOT (5000 dmg)
- Corrosive Stream - ST Poison attack - Damages weapon of target
Strategy
The named is in the middle of the room next to a wall. You have to clear the trash mobs until you get a special drop. When it drops, clear all the nearby trash mobs and then the person who loots the item clicks on the boss and it becomes live. Pretty easy fight. He drops 1 of the 4 eyes needed for access to the x4 zone as well as updates the Claymore quest line.
Ancient of the Flapping Wing
- Mob Health: 615,000
- Auto-Attack Type: Slashing
- Special Attacks:
- Hurricane Winds - Magic AOE (3500 dmg) - AOE is also a knockback.
- Zap - ST Magic DD
Strategy
The named is in the same spot as the 1st floor, but on the 2nd. You have to clear the trash mobs until you get a special drop. When it drops, clear one of the side rooms, because all the mobs around him will go live when you make him live and that would be bad. Pull him into the little alcove you've chosen and fight him there. This way you don't get any adds as well as not get someone punted into the middle of all the adds. Annoying fight, but not very hard. He drops 1 of the 4 eyes needed for access to the x4 zone an as well as giving the 2nd update for the Claymore quest line.
Ireth the Cold
- Mob Health: 950,000
- Auto-Attack Type: Slashing
- Special Attacks:
- Icy Breath - Frontal Cold Breath DOT (2500 dmg) every 25 seconds
- Tail Lash - Rear Crushing tail attack (2500 dmg) every 65 seconds
Strategy
Following the PoA zone setup, she is on the 3rd floor where one of the dragons would spawn in PoA. Again, you have to clear trash mobs until you get a special drop. For all the stuff you have to kill to get to her, this isn't that big of a deal like the previous floors. There will be a little stone drakota you click on once you have the special drop. This will spawn Ireth the Cold and kill all the droag's in the room. It will also spawn a bunch of ice constructs, but they didn't add on us when we fought her. A few added after we beat her, but they are heroic and have very little health. She has a knockback, so the MT needs to put his back to the wall. The rest of the raid force fights her from the side so as not to get hit by the Tail Lash or her Cold Breath. She was a surprisingly easy fight. Just a lot of health. She drops the 3rd of the 4 eyes you need for access to the x4 zone.
Sharti the Red
- Mob Health: 680,000
- Auto-Attack Type: Slashing
- Special Attacks:
- Breath of Fire - Frontal Heat Breath DOT (5000 dmg) every 25-35 seconds - Every person (including pets) hit by this AOE generates 2 heroic adds
- Tail Lash - Rear Crushing tail attack (3500 dmg) every 65 seconds
- Her Breath Adds are:
- Liquid Fire
- Mob Health: 48,000
- Auto-Attack Type: Crushing
- Special Attacks:
- Debilitating Slime - ST Poison DOT
Strategy
Same as the last dragon. Except Sharti the Red hits a lot harder and she has the adds that pop when her Conal Breath hits someone. All pets, including the short term ones, need to be kept out of this fight entirely. The best way to fight her is entirely with ranged weapons. The other option is to joust. Every single person, including pets, that is hit by her AOE generates 2 heroic adds called Liquid Fire. Ideally, that means every 30 seconds you'll be fighting only 2 adds since the MT will be getting hit by the Breath. We found more success simply doing ranged attacks on her. Her breath can vacscilate from 25-35 seconds so it's hard to time. And one bad joust can ruin the raid. We got her with a raid setup that had 2 mages, 3 scouts, 4 healers, and 3 tanks. Not ideal. But it was enough. It wouldn't be a good idea to go in with less ranged dps than that. She drops the last of the 4 eyes needed for the x4 zone.
