      C. Roles<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      1. Tank
        Responsible for maintaining aggro of the boss during a boss encounter.<\/li>
      2. Healers
        Primary responsibility is the health of the tank\/tanks. Secondary responsibility being the health of other roles.<\/li>
      3. DPS
        Responsible for ensuring damage output on a boss and any Adds after control is established by the tank(s).<\/li>
      4. Support
        Responsible for maintaining de-buffs on boss.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        D. Boss Encounter Phases<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        1. Initiation\/Pulling
          This phase is the initial phase of a fight. This phase begins as soon as the tank lands their first hate generating attack\/ability. Generally this phase is used to position bosses, and allow for other participants to get into position. Participants should be weary of doing anything that could potentially generate more hate than the tank. This means healers and DPS should allow enough time for the tank to secure aggro of the target. If the boss aggro is lost, it can be very difficult in some situations for a tank to re-establish control of the boss and generally will cause a wipe of the party.<\/li>
        2. Tanking
          Tanking in Ashen Empires is relatively easy once the fight is initiated. Tanks need to gear according to the damage type that the boss deals, as well as utilizing a weapon with accordance to the specific weaknesses of the boss. Once the resistance cap is reached for the damage type of the boss, tanks should then prioritize stats Str, Con and AC depending on the fight. Tanks need to generate as much “hate” as possible in order to keep the attention of the boss. When determining a tank, ability to generate hate is a large consideration. If a boss has resistances to melee types, then a mage tank may need to be utilized, and a different hate generation strategy may need to be used.<\/li>
        3. Silence
          Some bosses cast silence, which prevents mages from being able to DPS, and more importantly heal the tank. Positioning strategies will need to be utilized during encounters with bosses that silence. For the majority of these fights, the tank will take care to position the boss just off screen\/out of range of the mages so they can continue healing\/dps uninterrupted.<\/li>
        4. Berzerk
          The majority off bosses will become enraged once a threshold of remaining health is reached, and go into “zerk”. That threshold is generally around 1\/3 remaining life. While a boss is in zerk, repetitively for short periods of time, they hit in all squares around them and in some cases extending to multiple squares, they can hit for additional times, and\/or hit for an increased amount of damage. The boss will continue to go into zerk until it dies, or regains enough health to put it above the enrage threshold. This damage can also be amplified by the amount of players and followers in range of the boss, causing overwhelming quantities of damage to the tank. Prior to zerk all players need to withdraw themselves as well as their followers from the boss attack range and begin doing ranged damage (see pounce for caveats). <\/li>
        5. Healing
          While healing, resistances can be less important. The assumption being healers should not be being hit. Healers should prioritize Int, and critical healing stats. Additionally, Healers should make it a priority to max out the healing increase body feats. These feats provide quite a bit of additional healing power. Healers also need to be aware of the hate generation of their spells. If you land a large heal before a tank can generate enough hate, it is possible to steal agro.<\/li>
        6. Adds
          Some bosses spawn additional mobs called “adds” that will need to be dealt with independent of the main tank. Examples of these bosses are So Kang Kang, Ice Bane and Zule. These fights require melee based classes to clean up or in some circumstances mage classes AoE’ing, in order to protect the healers. Generally this cleanup needs to be done as quickly as possible as to not overwhelm the healers, and in some cases the adds have the ability to morph into more dangerous mobs.<\/li>
        7. Pounce
          Another ability some bosses have is the ability to pounce. Pounce occurs when a boss is receiving ranged damage. For bosses that pounce, it is recommended that anyone doing ranged damage of any sort to be just outside of a bosses berzerk range. Under no circumstances should a boss that pounces receive ranged DPS from anywhere near the healers. This opens up the opportunity for other problematic circumstances, such healers being silenced or a zerking boss pouncing onto the healers. As a side note, debuffing a boss is considered ranged and can cause a boss to pounce to a mage casting a debuff.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
