Shadow Lord Iskar - Fire Kiting Guide

Post by RedikulouS » Wed Mar 16, 2016 10:30 am

Hello,

I thought I would make a short visual guide showing how ranged players should handle Fel Incineration.

I'm not going to go over what it is, or how it works (watch a video!). We're just going to dive right in.

Image

Okay, so here's the first diagram - starting position for ranged and healers. Moving on..

Image

Random people start getting targeted with Fel Incineration.

Run out of the group in a straight line towards the wall and back. You're simply making an "L".

Eventually Iskar goes up in the air, adds come out, and Phase 2 begins.

Image

Everyone transitions to the middle. Notice in this diagram there are still fire lines on the ground from Phase 1.

Image

Incineration again - those targeted should be kiting the fire to the side we just came from - in this case Green.

Once the adds are dead, and Iskar has shot his 2 lazers, we move to the opposite side.

Image

Fires will probably still be burning on Green side and Middle (I forgot to draw them in)

Image

From this point on, it's basically rinse and repeat - only switching sides.

Any tips or tricks?

No, not really. The important things to take from this guide are not to panic and start doing figure 8's around the group if targeted. People will get hit by fire, but it's up to them to be ready to adjust. That's also why it's important to make a clean line out of the group. The less adjusting we have to do, the better our DPS.

Also, find what works for you. For me, it's positioning. I stand further up from the ranged group, so if I do get targeted and make a terrible line, I'm still only causing 1-2 people to adjust.

Have questions about positioning or how to handle a specific mechanic in HFC? Shoot me a PM, or leave a comment and I will make a guide.

Instructions unclear, stood in fire and ragnar os spawned :mrgreen:
You either get bitter or get better. You either take what has been dealt to you and allow it to make you a better person, or you allow it to tear you down. The choice does not belong to fate, it belongs to you.
