Kill the vinewrath knights to weaken the vinewrath is the final challenge event. Players will be faced with one axe wielding commander, or multiple, depending on the group size.

Objectives

• Legendary Mordrem Commander Axe / Legendary Mordrem Guard Master
• 
• Time limit: 8:00

Walkthrough

Depending on the size of the group, there may be multiple targets to kill.

The main enemy skills to watch out for are:

• Execute — A target reticule appears above the target (similar to when targeted by a Mordrem Sniper). The boss then leaps at the target and deals massive damage (e.g. 24k to a heavy armor character in full trailblazer - this skill will likely down the target if it hits). This skill should be dodged.
• Great Swing (vocal line: "Taste one thousand axes!") — Move away from the boss when it casts its spinning animation.

The other skills deal lower damage and can be ignored.

Prior to any scaling effects that may occur due to party size, the Legendary Mordrem Commander Axe has 1.12M health. Considering there are 8 minutes to kill it, your average DPS will need to be above 2.3k DPS, which is not very demanding. As a result, soloing this event is possible with sufficient sustain. Solo players may want to consider use of summoning consumables, providing both additional damage and diversions for the boss to use Execute on.
