Imperial Vizier Zor'lok
When you engage him, he'll go to one of the three platforms and fill the room with Pheromones of Zeal, so follow him to the platform. If no one is in melee range he'll channel Song of the Empress until everyone dies. Tanks should intercept exhale he uses on random players by standing between the player and the boss.
Phase 1
He gets a different ability depending on the platform he's on, he'll switch every 20%. The left platform activates Attenuation, dodge the discs that spiral out from the boss. Right platform is Force and Verve, spread the raid under the shields evenly and don't leave until he's done channeling. North platform is Convert, just damaged the mind controlled people (should be 5) until they break at 50%.
Phase 2
He stands in the middle and uses all three abilities from 40% health. Save bloodlust for this phase.
What to do by roles
DPS: Follow the boss, dodge Attenuation, stand under shields for Force and Verve, attack/stun Mind Controlled players. Big cooldowns after 20%.
Healers: Follow the boss, dodge Attenuation, stand under shields for Force and Verve.
Tanks: Dodge Attenuation, stand under shields for Force and Verve, intercept exhale. Use your big tank cooldowns after 40%, he'll hit harder.
Blade Lord Ta'yak
Phase 1
Don't get hit by tornadoes created by Tempest Slash, drag him to a clear area if there's too many tornadoes. Stay spread out so Wind Step doesn't hit everyone. Stack up when he does Unseen Strike to split damage.
Phase 2
After 20% he'll use Storm Unleashed, this will push everyone to the end of the hallway, run to him while avoiding tornadoes traveling in the opposite direction, if you get hit by one it'll push you all the way back. Repeat until he dies.
What to do
DPS: Don't get hit by Tornadoes, spread out for Wind Step, stack up when he uses Unseen Strike. After 20%, run down the hallway while dodging tornadoes, repeat when he goes to the other end. Use Bloodlust and other cooldowns early.
Healers: Don't get hit by Tornadoes, spread out for Wind Step, stack up when he uses Unseen Strike. After 20%, run down the hallway while dodging tornadoes, everyone will take damage during phase 2.
Tanks: Swap tanks when he uses Overwhelming Assault. Don't stand him close to tornadoes, stack up when he uses Unseen Strike. After 20%, run down the hallway while dodging tornadoes, repeat when he goes to the other end.
Garalon
Whoever pulls Garalon will receive Pheromones debuff and be fixated, everyone gets hit by the damage from this debuff. Players with Pheromones will leave Pheromone Trails that shouldn't be stood in, they also gain Pungency which increases the damage the raid takes. Pass Pheromones to another player by running through him, this resets the raid wide damage. He will cast Crush whenever someone is standing under him (big purple circle)or when Pheromones is passed. Standing in blue circles around his legs gives you the debuff Weak Points and lets you do 100% more damage to his legs. Broken Legs slow him down by 15% and makes him lose 3% health per stack. He can fix broken legs every 30 seconds.
What to do:
DPS: Kill the legs as often and as fast as possible, bloodlust at the start to slow him fast. Melee should be in his Weak Points attacking his legs but do not stand under him.
Healers: Heal up raidwide damage from Crush and Pheromones pulses. Don't stand under him.
Tanks: Be infront of him the entire time to eat Furious Swipe. He gains Fury when it doesn't hit at least 2 people. Don't stand under him. Whoever has the Pheromones debuff must kite the boss slowly around the outer edge of the room. If you have Pungency debuff, do not try to take Pheromones again. Pungency lasts for 20 seconds, so just switch off with the other tank. Switch off with another ranged or tank whenever the damage gets too high.
TLDR: No one get under the purple circle under him, only the tanks can be infront of him. Tanks trade off Pheromones to each other every 20 stacks and wait for the debuff to clear off before trading back. DPS legs, stand in blue circles to do more damage to the legs.
