H-377 Gatekeeper

The H-377 Gatekeeper is the first boss to appear in the new raid in Patch X-20: Prelude to the Rise. It is a large Fyjorn construct, similar to the two found in Ruin Fyjorn. The faction controls the construct to rip down the doors before it is recommanded by the chaotic magics of Wrulth'Danil. 
==Background==
===Dungeon Guide===
The H-377 Gatekeeper was a scrapped version of one of Crudor Leviathas' mechanical constructs. Favoring the other two constructs over this one, it was laid to rest. Successful attempts by engineers revitalized it's energies in order to revive it's sentience. Like they've said, one man's trash is another's treasure. The Gatekeeper stands as a siege weapon for benevolence before becoming malevolent due to "console commands".
===Encounter Design===
The front of the instance at first was an easy discussion topic - which boss would make it tough to knock down so adventurers don't breach it? A large construct, of Crudor's. Going with our "one boss from each patch" idea, we nestled on the mech. However, we added a little mechanic to it where it rips down the gates instead before being reprogrammed, making you think that it's too good to be true. Once it's reconfigured, you may discover it's faultyness, and why Crudor would've scrapped it in the first place.
===Overview===
The Gatekeeper starts off as a siege tool helping raiders defeat mini-boss and elite mobs guarding the entrance. However, once it rips the door off, it becomes controlled by the dark energies of the mountain, turning it into an enemy for the raid.

===Phase 1: The Reprogramming!===
The Gatekeeper rages through the gates but quickly reprogrammed by the chaotic energies of Wrulth'Danil. Now instead of being your ally, he is your enemy, thanks to corruption "console commands".

===Phase 2: Temper, Temper!===
The Gatekeeper releases hell it's inner energies, gaining new abilities. The Gatekeeper keeps it's missile and tar ability and uses them randomly.

The Gatekeeper becomes invulnerable as they exist. If they are not destroyed in time, H-377 uses one ability:

*http://images.wikia.com/__cb20070114130938/wowwiki/images/thumb/b/b1/Spell_fire_felimmolation.png/16px-Spell_fire_felimmolation.png Smog: After 6 minutes into the phase, a dangerous mist fills in the room, dealing 10% of health every 3 seconds in damage. After an additional 2 minutes, the mists deal 25% damage of health every 3 seconds. 
==Preparation==
The Gatekeeper is a simple tank and spank, as it is a mechanical, it is immune to all disease and bleeding status effects. However, in it's Phase 2, it unlocks some abilities such as invulnerabilitiy and a deadly, powerful blast. After enough time is amounted in it's second phase, a dangerous gas covers the room, wiping the raid after a while. In short, this fight is a simple DPS race, but the guardians it summons will be problematic if DPS doesn't defeat them in time.
