Events in The Dread Pit
Event #1 — Skurro & Luch rescued
Trash Mobs in this Area
- Interrupt Nerubian Threadmancer's Web Bolt.
- Beware of the Jagged Slash frontal coming from Nerubian Slasher.
Event #2 — 0/10 Kobolds rescued
Trash Mobs in this Area
- Nerubian Captain is the only "mini-boss' in this Delve, with only one ability to stop Webbed Aegis. In addition, he will use its Wide Swipe frontal attack, which can be easily sidestepped.
- Outrange the Chittering Fearmonger's Fearful Shriek, or you risk to be feared.
- Interrupt Nerubian Darkcaster's Shadow Bolt and Shadows of Strife (if you let the cast expire or is dispelled, it will knock you backwards so beware!).
- Do your best to avoid Nerubian Lord as he is quite tough to handle due to its Leeching Swarm high damage ability. In addition, the mob will also cast Jagged Barbs frontal which can be easily dodged.
Under-lord Vik'tis Boss Guide
- Dodge the Impale frontal.
- Run away from Burrowing Tremors cast. Keep in mind you can still melee him but there is a quite thin line between being hit and being able to attack him.
- Use defensive cooldowns during Stinging Swarm.
