Malygos

Monday nights are supposed to be our random raid night. I suprised that we actually did any thing because of last weeks happenings. We all decided that we should not only do a random raid, but we should also try and get the achievement Champion of the Frozen Wastes. The only thing missing for a few of us was Malygos. So we partnered up with some new found friends from another guild. We went in and they explained the fight and went in. There was a warlock there that said if we finish it he would give each one of us 100g, because he too had never killed Malygos.

The fight is fairly straight forward through the first 2 phases. Phase 1 is a tank and spank, you just burn him down to 50% or less depending how much Dps you have. Also keep the spark from getting to them, they empower him, that's no good. If you kill the spark and stand in it you get a buff they grants you 50% more Att Pwr. Phase 2 is somewhat of a ranged fight. You have to kill the guys flying around on the discs and then you Melee Dps get on the disc to help kill the rest of the floaters.

Then comes Phase 3, it is a vehicle fight of sorts. Malygos throws a temper tantrum and breaks the floor out from under you. You fall and land on a dragon, so you fly on dragons similar to the Occulos fight. Well here lies the problem, you have to be somewhat intelligent to make this happen. You have to move somewhat together so you can get healed, and you have to keep hitting the same button until Malygos has a certain number of a de-buff then press another button. then on top of that if he targets you, you have to press the button that shields you. So basically it goes like this: stack on {X} and strafe right when he says to, all this time you need to spam the 1 key until he has about 3-5 stacks then press the 2 key. While the tank and Dps are doing this the healers need to stay with everyone and heal(imagine that) which is basically spamming the 4 key for the AoE heal and hitting 3 for direct taregt heal.

Well wipe after wipe we finally decided that we would give it one more try. Everything got re-explained and we went for it. We were slowly beating him down and then a couple of us died, and it was going really slow and steady. Well since i was watching from the ground(yeah I died) I was able to keep an eye on his health and the enrage timer. So, I am watching and thinling we are going to get close but I wasn't too certain we would beat the enrage timer. So as things are getting close on his health and his enrage, the pucker factor starts a little. Then bam Malygos meets his demise with less than 10 seconds left on his temper timer. We were all relieved and the trusty warlock met us out side and gave us each 100g.

After that we decided to go kill K'T again to help a few friends get that part of the achievement. So we went in and 1 shot the dragon without frost protection and they got that achievement. and then went in to see K'T well we decided to try another achievement on him, we won't go itno it but it ended in 3 wipes. Then we decided to just run a train on K'T and not go for that one quite yet. Long and short version the night ended with success.
