[Tip] Freya Phase 2 made easy!

[Ciero]

Today me and my guild wiped for several hours on freya with one keeper up. The thing that wiped us was the phase 2 small root bombs that makes ur have to move all the time and it reduce the raid dps magnifically. So we scratched our head and wondered what we should do about it.

Our raid leader decided to try to make all of group to stay right behind the boss so that we could move easily when freya did those bombs. So we pulled freya and got to phase 2 all gathered up right behind Freya and to all our surprise Freya did not even cast the bombs!
This made phase 2 really easy so if you guild have problems with Freya just tell your raid to gather up behind Freya.

There seems to be a timer on it, sometimes for some reason she doesn't use the ability. It happened to us once when we were all spread out, we now just use the whole "everyone stack on the tank" tactic in phase 2, and just move her everytime she uses it.

To be honest the bombs don't hit for that much anyhow, stacking just lets you continuously dps her without worrying about being flung all over the place.

once you reach p2 you've made it tbh. IF you still manage to fail there I"m amazed you did p1 at all

[Ciero]

Well pietje due to these bombs we ussually wipe.

Ok, I've never tried Knock on wood, but would some AoE damage acctually make this piss-easy fight difficult? Plz correct me if I'm wrong.

There's so many hidden boss variables so I imagine this boss might have a timer on P1 and if you do it within a shorter time at the start might trigger a mini-hardmode and introduce bombs to the fight :P Just trying to think out of the box here ^^

Don't know if you have 80k hp, or even wondering if you have even done freya, but 2/3 of those little bombs in a close range on 25, your dead...
Those are designed to move away from, and stack quite frequently on or very close to each other.

To the poster, It might be something to do with a frontal cone area of effect. Alltough that might not be the case since the MT will be in front of her, but on a very short range.
Usely our dps is so high, a wave of little bombs appear, and she's down. And everyone moves away from it.

We had P2 with no bombs too once and I don't think it has anything to do with raid position.

blizzard will always ruin the fun ><

[Lexodia]

just a bugged out try, delete the thread tbh
same way we had auriya without a feral guardian, blizz has some bugs running, cant trigger them manually

Its not a timer or that the bombs appear if u havent killed each wave of add's before the next spawns. We did her np no bombs biggest issue was killing the 3 at the same time as some of our dps is a bit outrageous at times.

[Galinda]

I might be completely nuts here, but i've never seen a p2 wipe...ever. The bombs are easy as hell to see, have a long as explosion timer, and hit like pansies.

Concerning her not casting bombs. RNG was in your favour, she randomly casts them, it isnt a gurantee she will.
