Raid: Mount Balrior[edit]

Abilities
  • Poison
  • Area Control
  • Boon Corruption
Effects

DefianceDefiance bar teal.png (unlocked when casting Rot the World)

  • Resolution.png Resolution (30s) - Incoming condition damage decreased by 33%; stacks duration.
  • Empowered (Mursaat Overseer).png Empowered - Increases damage by 5% per stack. At 99 stacks, Greer's attacks become unblockable.
  • Defensive Inspiration.png Damage Immunity - Immune from damage but vulnerable to crowd control.
Skills
  • Aura of Corruption -
  • Blob of Blight - Greer targets up to 3 foes, preferring the most distant combatants. He slams his fist down, creating a damaging sphere that will then fire a blob of blight that follows the targeted enemy for 12 seconds, firing multiple smaller projectiles as it moves. If it hits a targeted foe, it will also create a stationary blob of blight that fires projectiles for several seconds.
    • Redirect Arrow.png Blob of Blight - If one of Greer's blobs of blight hits a targeted player, it explodes and places a stationary blob of blight that will continue to fire projectiles for several seconds.
  • Cage of Decay - Greer creates a fan of 5 cascades, starting at the edges of a 180-degree arc and moving toward the center. Rippling thorn barriers travel along these lines, damaging and knocking back anything struck by them. When the barriers reach the end of their track, they create a circular rot cage of barriers surrounding a zone of noxious blight.
  • Enfeebling Miasma - Greer exhales lingering clouds of poisonous gas that travel outward to form 3 roughly conical areas. The gas clouds stay in place for several seconds, poisoning foes inside them.
    • Actual affected area is much larger than indicated.
  • Eruption of Rot - Greer places a stacking indicator on several players. If the indicated number of players are within the circle when time runs out, the rot eruption is stabilized and only does damage. If a player is within more than one stacking circle, they are instantly killed. If there are not enough players within the circle, a rot eruption occurs, and the Greerling gains 2 empowered stacks.
  • Invulnerable Barrier - Greer encircles himself in a barrier, protecting himself from further harm while his Greerlings attack his foes. Players entering the barrier will be knocked back.
  • Noxious Blight [verification requested] - Noxious blights form persistent pools of corruption on the ground. Foes in a noxious blight take continuous damage, and their boons will be corrupted while they remain in the noxious blight.
  • Rain of Spores - Greer targets 3 players, preferring the farthest away, and then fires a torrent of exploding spores along a line that moves towards the initial position of the target. The spores explode on impact, inflicting damage, poison, and confusion.
  • Ripples of Rot - Greer leaps into the air towards a targeted player. When Greer lands, targets directly under him will be knocked back. He then fires cascades of rot walls that ripple outward, inflicting damage, knockback, and bleeding on anyone hit by them. The final rot wall stays in place, blocking player projectiles that hit them.
  • Rot Eruption - Rot walls burst up from the ground, knocking players back and creating a noxious blight at the eruption point. Players hit by a rot eruption take damage and gain poison, bleeding, and a stack of infectious rot.
    • Applies Infectious Rot.png Infectious Rot, which lasts for 20 seconds or until the player is downed.
  • Rot the World - Greer rains explosive spores down on the battlefield as he musters his power. This leaves him vulnerable, opening his defiance bar. If players do not break him, he will spawn rot cages under the feet of every player in the raid, as well as extra ones, choking the battlefield. Breaking him will interrupt the attack.
  • Scattering Sporeblast - Greer rapidly fires spores in a cone in front of him. Players in this cone will be directly targeted by the spores.
  • Seeds of Decay - The shattered fragments of Greer's armor rain down on the arena. Smaller pieces explode on impact, but larger fragments transform into titanspawn, ready to help Greer in the fight.
  • Stomp the Growth - Greer stomps 3 times in quick succession. The first two stomps hit all targets in a circle around the impact point, dealing damage, inflicting poison, and applying vulnerability. The third stomp creates a wave of corruption.
    • Single large AoE indicator followed by shockwave indicator. Greer stomps 3 times. First two inflict Poisoned.png Poisoned and Vulnerability.png Vulnerability, last stomp creates a wave of boon corruption.
  • Sweep the Mold - Greer sweeps his claw in a 60-degree cone, damaging, bleeding, poisoning, and knocking back targets. This attack sets up Rake the Rot, the next attack in the chain.
    • Redirect Arrow.png Rake the Rot - Greer sweeps his claw in a 60-degree cone, damaging, crippling, poisoning, and knocking back targets. This attack sets up Stomp the Mould, the final attack in the chain.
  • Wave of Corruption - An expanding circular shockwave thats spreads outward. Players hit by the wave of corruption take damage, gain vulnerability, are knocked down, and have a number of their boons corrupted. This attack cannot be blocked, but players can avoid the effects by jumping over it.
