Dohn Mheg dungeon guide

Dungeon quick facts

Your quest to gain entry to Lyhe Ghiah and vanquish the Lightwarden sealed within has brought you to the domain of the water-bound Fuath, bearers of one of the four fae relics that comprise the key to the castle. The creatures agree to yield to you their relic, the shell crown, but in exchange they demand of you what they call "thrilling sport." In order to fulfill your side of the bargain, you and your comrades sally forth into a realm of illusion as treacherous and unpredictable as its denizens...

Boss and mechanic notes

Dohn Mheg has local boss notes for: Aenc Thon, Lord of the Lingering Gaze, Griaule, Lakelord: Aenc Thon, Lord of the Lengthsome Gait. These notes are pulled from the local wiki and should be treated as source-backed prep unless separately marked as human-reviewed strategy.

• Candy Cane: Tankbuster.
• Hydrofall: Two circle AoEs below random players. Deals high damage to players hit.
• Laughing Leap: Alternates between a small circle AoE in the center of the arena or a stack marker on a random player. Aenc Thon will leap to the targeted area and follow up with Landsblood.
• Landsblood: Constant party-wide damage every few seconds, combined with several blue water AoE markers appearing around the arena. The more opaque the markers become, the closer they are to "exploding", dealing moderate damage and Stunning players caught in the area of effect.
• Swinge: 60 degree frontal AoE cone
• Fodder: Griaule will move to the center of the arena and summon five untargetable Painted Sapling adds that will then tether to him. These tethers can and should be intercepted by players, and after a short time, the adds will bestow a the Growing buff to whomever they were tethered to.
• To "intercept", a player needs to stand between the Painted Sapling and Griaule, to break the beam's line-of-sight to the boss. If successful, the beam will visually switch from Griaule to the player, and player will receive Growing buff.
• The Growing buff increases damage dealt and reduces damage taken, along with physically increasing the target's size. Players who gain a second stack of Growing will have it replaced with Full-Grown, which further increases the benefits gained from Growing, but the boss will continue to gain stacks.
• WARNING: If Growing buff is allowed to reach 5 stacks on Griaule, then the next Tiiimbeeer will instantly wipe the party even at full health.
• Tiiimbeeer: Moderate party-wide damage.
• Coiling Ivy: Four Painted Ivy adds will appear at the feet of each player and inflict Fetter, thus rooting/binding them in place. The adds need to be targeted and destroyed to remove the debuff. The melee or short-range players can target their own add to break free, while ranged could help free other players from range, after freeing themselves.
• If not freed, the player will remained rooted/bound indefinitely and won't be able to move out of other attacks, such as Swinge.
• Crippling Blow: Tankbuster.
• Virtuisic Capriccio: Moderate party-wide damage and a weak Bleeding debuff on all players. Late in the fight, Aenc Thon will cast this ability three times in a row, but the Bleeding debuff does not stack.
