Ayamiss the Hunter (Wasp)

Ayamiss

Spells:
  • Stinger spray (??yd radius) - AoE of about 1000dmg to all enemies
  • Poison stinger (melee) - applies a stackable poison that causes 25dmg per second per stack (up to 100stacks) to target with aggro
  • Paralyze (??yd) - snares an enemy at the altar for the grub to feed, grubs are very quick
  • Summon Hize'Zara swarmer - summons a dozen that can be a problem for cloth-wearers, easily killable
  • Taunt-immunity - **applicable in Dalaran?**

Battle Strategies:

Tank'n'Spank (minimum 1 tank, 1-2 healers, 3 DPS 2 of which rDPS ) Phase 1 (Airborne, >70%HP)
  • Positioning should reflect that of grub spawn points (altar and corners)
  • Melee have the primary role of killing the grubs, yet can do ranged attacks during downtime or bandage as needed to help healers
  • rDPS have primary role of DPSing Ayamiss to begin phase 2
  • If raid has tanky rDPS with good nature resistance let him/her keep aggro on Ayamiss
  • Healers will determine the max amount of poison stinger stacks that rDPS should accumulate before giving aggro to someone else
  • rDPS that have threat-reducing abilities should be the main aggro'ers (hunter, priest...); the rest should stay below aggro or stop DPS well before the max amount of stacks specified
  • Nature resistance eases the fight
Phase 2 (On Land, <70%HP)
  • Let tank acquire enough aggro at the beginning before DPSing since Ayamiss may be taunt-immune
  • Tank will be near stairs to altar with back against wall
  • Continue killing grubs immediately when they spawn
