The tank should stand on the grates when they activate as indicated by a green circle to block the balls for the group.
;Blistering Plague: Throughout the fight the boss will use a random disease on the group. This deals moderate disease damage over time on top of its main effect. There are three main effects as listed below. Jorvuld Davaux can cure you though he needs your help to acquire the reagents for the cure.

;Antidote  : Jorvuld will throw the antidote on the ground when it is ready. Run over to the green circle to pick up the buff, which dispels the Blistering Plague and its effects. The boss will also get stunned at this point. In addition, players will gain large bonuses to damage done, ultimate generation, and resource recovery, so use this chance to deal massive damage to the boss.
