Abilities
Emberlord Ereetu is one of the most difficult bosses in Lantern Hook, He has four abilities that your party should be aware of. A Cone-based AoE Fire Breath (DPS and healers, Stay behind Ereetu!), A Fireball type spell (Randomly cast at any Player in the group), a Fire orb which is cast at players and spawns a Scorching Shard, and finally a 5 second Fear spell (Yes Healers, this can affect you).
There are two main strategys for Ereetu, you can decide which is better for your group, Overall the object is to defeat Ereetu before the room is filled with Scorching Shards. Also just a note, this fight is very healing intensive, having a Secondary healer is very beneficial if you can sacrifice the dps.

Strategy 1

The easiest strategy if you have high dps is to have the tank pull Emberlord Ereetu and then kite him around the outside edges of the platform. Melee dps should go behind Ereetu while range split up near the doorway and center. Every few moments Ereetu will shoot a fire orb at a player and spawn a Scorching Shard, Players should move away from the circle of fire on the ground, and get away from the Shard. Your tank should only have to kite Ereetu if a Scorching Shard is spawned on him or the melee, otherwise he shouldnt have to move at all. Also your tank should be on the lookout for fear, if your Healer is feared, then you need to pickup the slack by popping some defensive cooldowns.

Strategy 2
Minimizing the random-ness of the encounter, all of your ranged dps should stack together on your healer, while your tank and melee stack near edge and the boss should still be kited around the outside of the room. However when Ereetu throws his fire orb and spawns his Scorching Shard, Everyone will need to move togther as a stacked unit to avoid the scorching shards AoE damage. A faint orange circle will appear on the ground if you are unsure of its damaging distance.
