The Writhing Coil

One mechanic decides this fight: the whole party gets tethered and everyone has to run outward at the same time. If one person is slow, the party bleeds.

B
Vine Grip — everyone tethered. All five sprint outward together to snap them.
AbilityTypeWhat it doesWhat you do
Synchronized Venom
Healing
Party-wide hit plus a 35-second damage-over-time.
Nothing to dodge. This is pure healing.
Vine Gripno verified icon
Spread
Tethers the entire party to the boss. Death Rattle stacks while tethered.
Everyone runs 10+ yards outward at once. This is the fight.
Venom Jet
Dodge
Frontal breath.
Don't stand in front. Tank points it away.
Burrowing Charge
Dodge
Charges underground in a straight line.
Step off the line.
Toxic Atrophy
Interrupt
Cast three times in a row. Each one cuts your damage 15% and speed 10%.
Kick it. Needs 2–3 people on a rotation — one kicker cannot cover three casts.
Tail Scythe
Tank
Heavy tank hit.
Tank cooldown.
Spiteful Huntno verified icon
Kite
Mythic+ only. A freed serpent fixates one player and stacks a DoT.
Kite it. Do not stand and tank it.
Holy Paladin lensCall the Vine Grip movement out loud yourself — healers see the tethers form first. If the party is slow, Death Rattle stacking outpaces your throughput and there's no healing your way out of it.
