Developers’ notes: With the changes below, we’re reducing the amount of passive healing done to the boss via Cleansed Lifeforce to make player healing more impactful. Additionally, we are adjusting some mechanical tuning surrounding Corrupted Lifeforce to encourage more group participation in this mechanic. To counterbalance this adjustment, we’re providing more time for the group to handle this mechanic and also increasing its visibility within the Avatar’s chamber.

Corrupted Lifeforce time to soak increased to 6 seconds (was 4.5 seconds) and visibility improved.

Corruption

Reduced physical vulnerability to 250% (was 300%).

Increased periodic damage by 33%.

Capped applications at 2.

Increased duration to 25 seconds.

Cleansed Lifeforce

The passive healing aura can no longer grow beyond 3 applications.

Slowed the tick rate of the passive healing to every 3 seconds (was every 2 seconds).

Faithless Tormentor

Reduced the size of the fixate visual over the head of the healer.

Essence Defiler

Defiling Taint is now displayed as a debuff on the Avatar’s unit frame.

Lightning Serpent
