The Beast Master – Blessed Crucible Boss

The Beast Master Boss - Blessed Crucible
Incineration Beetles - The Beast Master Stinger - The Beast Master The Troll King - The Beast Master

Overview

The Beast Master is encountered in Blessed Crucible . This boss is actually 3 waves, one is the fight with 4x Incineration Beetles, the next is the Stinger (scorpion) and then finally the Troll King introduced by the Beast Master.

Your tank needs to pay close attention to these fights and be sure that anything taunted is faced AWAY from the group. DPS and Healers need to focus here because running around the room WILL kill you.

Mechanics

Incineration Beetles – 4x nasty flaming beetles. The tank should try to hold these as still as possible. AOE damage all 4 of them at the same time as much as possible to kill them quickly and evenly.

The beetles throughout the fight, especially at low health, will cast a nasty pulsing fire AOE (which burns a LOT) and also place AOE on the ground (more fire). Standing in this will be a MESS! Do NOT stand in it and your healer needs to really be on point for the incoming damage if people get caught. The beetles have low health but they can wipe groups. Be careful.

Stinger – This boss is incredibly simple. The tank should face it away from the group, in the meantime block any heavy attacks that come in. When the boss puts his stinger into the ground, one player will be targeted and poison will shoot out from under them to kill them. Simply move away from this and do as you were doing. Do not sprint around the room, just move a bit and carry on.

The Troll King – This is HUGE and if you understand him he is a bit of a puppy, BUT if you panic and run around the room, you will wipe. Tip...STAY CLOSE!!!

JUMP – This mechanic is simple, if you are too far away from the boss he will jump on your head. STAY CLOSE.

Slam – The boss will hit the ground with a huge slam and be very easy to spot with a large AOE visual. Simply block or step out of it, BUT make sure you get back in position ASAP so that he doesn’t jump at long-ranged targets.

Tips & Strategy

  • Tank: Keep anything taunted facing AWAY from the group.
  • DPS: Do NOT run around the room but avoid close ranged AOES.
  • Healer: Be ready for the incoming damage during the Incineration Beetles.
  • Everyone: Stay close to the Troll King so he doesn’t jump at long-ranged targets.
