Area 1
You can go left or right at the start. This guide will start off by going left first.
Fallen Waterspeaker
- Hydrolance:
Inflicts frost damage to random player. Can be interrupted to stop this mob from spam casting, just make sure to save one interrupt for Hydroburst. - Hydroburst: Deals frost damage to all players. This should always be interrupted.
Corrupt Droplet
- Non-elite mob
- Splash: Deals frost damage to all players. These mobs spam cast this ability so CC can be used to disrupt them. While not deadly on its own, pulling a lot of these with other mobs that do group wide damage can get players killed.
Corrupt Living Water
- Tainted Ripple:
Deals heavy frost damage to all players and applies a dot that deals frost damage every second for 10 seconds. If this ability goes off at the same time as other abilities that do group wide damage it can be deadly. Tainted Ripple hits the hardest of any mob in this area. Healers be ready to heal up this damage immediately, especially if two casts go off at the same time. The dot can be dispelled if someone is in danger. - Surging Deluge: Targets a random player’s location and puts a large swirl there. Any players inside when the cast finishes take heavy frost damage and get knocked up.

- Corrupted Vortex: Puts a debuff on a random player and puts a circle on them for 6 seconds. When it expires it deals heavy frost damage to the player and anyone within their circle. It also places a Corrupted Vortex at the player’s location for 1 minute. Players who stand in it takes frost damage every second and get pulled to the center. Players with this debuff should take it to the back of the room so it is not in the way during the fight. Healers should make sure this player is topped off before the debuff expires. This ability seems to have a priority list. It will always target ranged DPS unless there are none. Then it will only target melee DPS. If there are none he will always target the Healer, and if the Tank is the last one standing then he will target the Tank.
- Corrupted Geyser: This ability has no cast time and is used throughout the fight. Wise Mari will cause the fountain to erupt, dealing heavy frost damage to players standing on water and knocking them up. This knock up can be deadly as it prevents players from avoiding Wash Away. Players do get a warning the fountaint is about to erupt because the water will splash three times before erupting.
- Wash Away: Boss aims at a direction then channels a beam of water in a line in front of him. Then slowly rotates clockwise or counterclockwise. While channeling this Corrupted Geyser occurs more often. Players must dodge this water beam at all costs while also avoiding the erupting fountain. Getting hit by the beam is a one shot for everyone except for Tanks.
