Boss Name

There are four boss encounters in The Foul Cascade, all of which provide a challenge to individual groups.

Fight Encounter

'Matron Verosa, Lesch and Gruze

Strategy

This fight has a total of 5 very fast phases.

Start this fight by marking your targets;

Matron Verosa
Lesch
Gruze

Have your main tank pull Matron Verosa the other two mobs are immune and do not move.. During this first phase your group will DPS Matron Verosa down to 75% health. At 80% health Matron Verosa calls upon Boss number 2, Lesch. Matron Verosa will be immune to damage.

During this phase, your party should stack on top of Lesch to avoid Lesch dealing large amounts of damage to unstacked players. Once Lesch reaches 50%, he will call upon Gruze. Lesch will become immune to all damage.

During this phase, your tank should turn Gruze away from the party as he has a large frontal AOE that does large amounts of damage. He should also be facing away from the other mobs to prepare for the fourth phase. Once Gruze reaches 50% phase four begins.

During this phase, Lesch and Gruze are both active. For this reason your main tank had previously faced Gruze away from the other mobs and party. While stacking up , your party should kill Lesch and then Gruze.

During this phase, Matron Verosa will fight your party. He has a mediocre damage AOE, so your ranged DPS should be at max range. Your healer should be watching all melee's hit points.

Fight Encounter

Surin Skenobar

Strategy

This fight has five fast phases.

The first four phases are simple mob encounter that increase in difficulty with each phase. All of these should be grabbed by the tank and immediately killed.

Phase 1: 8 Non Elite Mobs Phase 2: 4 Elite Mobs Phase 3: 3 Elite Mobs Phase 4: 2 Elite Mobs

Phase 5: Surin Skenobar will release himself from his immunity state as his minions he has summoned to kill you have failed. Once he spawns, the tank should get agro on the boss and pull him to the altar. Every so often Surin will cast an AOE knock back which will send all players within a small radius will be thrown back. If the tank has his back facing the altar he will not be thrown back. Other than the throw back this is an easy tank and spank fight.
