Opening the Dark Portal、このストーリーのためだけにあるようなインスタンス。
インスタンスの南側にDark Portalを開けようとしている、Medivhがいて、そいつに近づくとScriptが開始される。

まず、スクリプトの前に雑魚を掃除する必要がある。
南側を中心に雑魚をくまなく掃除しておこう。

スクリプトが始まると、RiftPortalからDragonkin軍団がやってくる。これが18wave続き、最後のBossを殺せば攻略完了である。
ただし、Dragonkin軍団にMedivhがやられてしまうと、失敗である。
RiftPortalをそれぞれ閉じる必要があり、RiftKeeperまたはRiftLordを殺すことで、Portalは閉じる。
6,12,18wave目には、それぞれBossが登場する。

基本的な作戦は、グループ構成により異なるが、DPSがAddを殺しつつRiftへDPSを行うのが一般的であろう。

Time Lapse – Magic debuff, an AoE debuff, Attack speed and Movement speed reduced by 60%.

Like the portals guarded by Rift Lords and Rift Keepers, Chrono Lord Deja’s portal will constantly spawn dragonkin of the Infinity. Based on the skill/classes/gear of our party we can decide beforehand whether or not to kill the adds or let them pass and hopefully take care of them before they damage Medivh too much. If we allow the Infinity to pass a player can use the Chrono-beacon to assist Medivh.

Deja will cast his Time Lapse from time to time but he does not cast it often, if possible it should be removed from non casters first. Assuming we are allowing the Infinity adds to pass, a watchful eye should as always be kept on our healers.

Bug Alert: When using the Chrono-beacon, it should be placed away from Chrono Lord Deja, Temporus, or Aeonus or the Guardian of Time will not spawn

Mortal Wound – Healing reduced by 10%, stacks up to 9 times.

おそらく、このインスタンスで最も難関となるBossはこれ。

このボスは4人で攻略することは、かなり困難であるため、5人体制で臨む必要があるだろう。
しかし、それではMedivhを守る者がいなくなってしまうので、Chrono-beaconを使ってMedivhをサポートする必要も出てくる。
シールドが十分で、このボスをさっさと殺すことが出来る自信があるなら、雑魚を無視して、BOSSにFFSするのもよい。

このボスのベストの戦い方は、クラス構成にもよるが

1. A well geared/specced/played tank that can avoid Temporus’ Mortal Wound from stacking 9 times.
2. 2 tanks to rotate agro so Mortal Wound will drop off and not get 9 stacked.

Assuming we are allowing the Infinity adds to pass, a watchful eye should as always be kept on our healers.

Bug Alert: When using the Chrono-beacon, it should be placed away from Chrono Lord Deja, Temporus, or Aeonus or the Guardian of Time will not spawn

Time Stop – AoE stun.

Before Aeonus comes we should take inventory of remaining Chrono-beacons as they are most valuable now. Aeonus’ big claim to fame is he has “MACK” printed on his chest because he hits like a truck. When Aeonus comes out of his portal he comes out alone and beelines to Medivh, we do not have to worry about the Infinity dragonkin for this boss.

As for the remaining Chrono-beacons we want to take turns on spawning the Guardians of Time, using all at the same time is not as effective because their damage is not what we want, it is their debuff they will use against Aeonus. Like the Epoch Hunter in Old Hillsbrad they use “Sandstorm” which reduces movement speed and increases time between attacks. It looks as though the Sandstorm debuff does in fact stack but it is preferable to have the debuff on him for the entire length of the fight instead of having it active x3 for half the fight then deal with Aeonus’ full strength for the other half.

Bug Alert: When using the Chrono-beacon, it should be placed away from Chrono Lord Deja, Temporus, or Aeonus or the Guardian of Time will not spawn.
