Pyroguard Emberseer
Level ?? boss · Hall of Binding, past the seven rune rooms of Dragonspire Hall
Altar event: kill the Blackhand Incarcerators, then tank a fire elemental whose stacking Flame Buffet makes each Fire Nova hurt more.
Watch for
EncageInterrupt
Blackhand Incarcerators channel a stun on one player. It can't be dispelled, so stop the channel.
Fire NovaStay back
Fire damage to everyone near Emberseer.
Flame BuffetResistance
Fire damage that also makes the target take more Fire damage. It stacks, so later novas hit harder.
Phase 1Altar used
Blackhand Incarcerators break their channel and attack while Emberseer grows in his cage. Kill them all and stop any Encage channel on a teammate.
Phase 2Emberseer at full strength
Emberseer breaks free and attacks. Tank him where he stands, keep ranged players out of Fire Nova and heal through steady Fire damage.
Group plan
Tank
Pick up the Incarcerators as they turn hostile, then grab Emberseer the moment he breaks free. All his damage is Fire, so wear any fire resistance you have.
Healer
Heal from outside Fire Nova range. Each Flame Buffet stack raises the Fire damage its target takes, so damage climbs the longer the fight runs.
Damage
Kill the Incarcerators first and break any Encage channel on a teammate. On Emberseer, ranged stay back from Fire Nova; melee expect to take every nova.
