Professor Putricide Stats and Abilities
HP: 40M on 25 man Normal
The BossPhase 1
Slime Puddle - The boss will throw some smile to a player creating a puddle at his location. Just move out of it asap. Keep in mind that the puddle will grow. Mutated Abomination will have to eat these.
Unstable Experiment - This will be casted every ~40 sec and as a result a Volatile Ooze or a Gas Cloud (read more about them below).
Tear Gas - This ability will be casted when the boss reaches 80% and he goes into Phase 2.
Phase 2 - he will keep all his Phase 1 abilities and he will gain more
Malleable Goo - The boss will throw 3 goos at 3 random players. You should move out of the way. They wont follow the players they will explode in their original position.
Choking Gas Bombs - He will place 2 Choking Gas vials at his feet every now and then. The tank and melee should move asap. Just don't stay near them and don't step into them. They will be gone in a few seconds.
- Tear Gas - This ability will be casted when the boss reaches 35% and he goes into Phase 3.
Phase 1 and 2 Adds- Volatile Ooze - This one has the Volatile Ooze Adhesive ability. After he spawns it will target a random player and start casting Adhesive on him while moving toward that player. The others should dps him asap. When the add dies he will explode splitting the explosion damage between everyone near it and throw everyone out. Placing yourself in the way you'll reach the other corner of the room is the best way to do it. This add should be slowed!
- Gas Cloud - This add will spawn with 10xGaseous Bloat and he will loose a stack every 2 sec. When he targets a player, that player should kite him and the others should dps that add asap. Speed up the targeted player to ease his job. Also the Abomination can slow this add too.
Phase 3 - he looses all the abilities and gain only this 3
Mutated Abomination
The player chosen to be come a Mutated Abomination will have a series of abilities to help the raid with. Only one player can mutate.
Eat Ooze,
Regurgitated Ooze,
Mutated Slash and
Mutated Transformation (passive), are the Abomination abilities.
The passive aura should NOT be dispelled. Just heal people up. You'll have to Eat Ooze to gain Ooze energy and use the Regurgitated Ooze and Mutated Slash.
Strategy
When the fight starts everyone should be in the left side of the room because the first add that will spawn will be a Green Ooze and that always spawn in the right side. Basically every time an add spawns you'll have to be in the opposed side of the room. Nuke the boss asap right from the start. Ideally you'll have only one green add spawned in phase 1. If the phase transition happen when a new add just spawned do not wast a slow on it because that add will choose another target when the phase 2 start.
Now, let's see how to deal with the adds:
Green Ooze - This will spawn in the right side of the room. It will target a random player and move toward it. When/If it reaches that player it will explode. The damage from that explosion is shared between all players next to targeted player. If the targeted player is alone he will die. You don't need all the raid to stack up on the green Ooze but you need enough so it's damage is healable. One more thing to remember about the Green Ooze is that when it explodes everyone around it will be thrown away. To minimize the walking time to the other side of the room you'll have to place yourself between the green add and the other corner of the room so you'll be thrown in that direction when the explosion happens.
Orange Ooze - Always spawns in the left of the room. Also targets a random player and start moving toward it. This add should be kited by the targeted player and killed by others. If the add reaches the target it will head damage depending of how many Gaseous Bloat stacks that target still has. If it's 1-2 stacks the damage is easy healable.
So, both should be dps asap. You shouldn't allow any of them to pick a new target. Both of them should be slowed by the Abomination (except the ones spawned right on phase transition). For both (yes, for green one too) you can use Teleport or Blink. Also, if the raid leader tells you you can use vanish, ice block also. to get rid of any of them but remember that if you do so the add will pick another target in a few sec.
So, in Phase 1 you'll have to deal with Oozes and also you have to dps the Professor. The Abomination should eat the slime asap and slow the adds. In Phase 2 you'll have to do the same thing but this time you'll have to move out of the Malleable Goo and the Gas Bombs. Tank should move the boss when he drops the bombs and melee should watch out not to step into them. Rangers should be aware of them also. Remember that Malleable Goo doest do any damage wen it jumps, only when they explode. Move aways from them!
The Abomination should continue to eat the slime and slow the adds when needed.
At 35% the phase 3 will start and the adds will stop spawning. The abomination will be gone. The slime will slowly cover the whole room.
You'll have to kill the remaining Ooze (if there is any) and go at the back of the boss asap. Both melee and rangers should be aware of the Malleable Goo and the Gas Bombs. Rangers should always attack the boss by standing right on the edge of the slime and moving along with tank slowly. The tank(s) shouldn't move the boss too much. Just move it from the bombs and from the slime (if there is any in melee).
Here the tanks healing will be very intense. You'll need 3 tanks for everything to be safe. Each tank should get the debuff in a specific order so the raid wont get unhealable damage.
Tank1 get 2 stacks, Tank2 taunts and get 2 stacks, Tank3 taunt and get 2 stacks.
Tank1 taunt and get one more stack, Tank2 taunt and get 1 more stack, Tank3 Taunt and get 1 more stack.
Basically when each tank has 3 stacks the boss should be nearly dead. If it's not you soon will be. Remember not to spam taunt because the boss will get immune to taunt.
