Tips and Misc
- The raid doesn't lock out until after speaking to Hawthorn and challenging Hyrsam, allowing you to buff and assign teams.
- There are four groups of stones, in the South East; South West; North West; and North East.
This raid takes place on a large meadow.
Separate your group into two teams:
- One larger team in the center can defend Hawthorn.
- Second smaller team runs off to solve 4 puzzles (with some trash).
Defend Hawthorn, kill trash and occasional bosses, solve puzzles, win.
Special mechanic: Hyrsam occasionally plays a fairly lethal song, asking you to move as he plays. Watch out for DM text and arrows above your character's head and move accordingly: Strife left, strife right, run forward, run back. Your character does not actually have to move (you can bump into an obstacle, that's not a problem), and you can also turn around while doing the moves. If you fail to move as commanded, your character takes significant damage.
