Harrowhold; Phase 2
Hi all,
A kind person invited my new Lancer to Harrowhold: phase 2. A rookie. Got my butt kicked. : )
The one thing that I learned was to use Guardian Barrier at the beginning of the fight to avoid push-back and dying.
Some questions:
1. His breath attack. Iframe? Or dodge? Does Guardian Barrier work against his breath attack?
2. Vergos’ stomps. 3rd foot stomp is instant death unless you time the iframe correctly?
3. Nearly room wide AOE. Run as quickly to the edge. I have trouble with getting there fast enough even with Charging Lunge.
And it seems that the room wide AOE is followed by another outer AOE that will kill you unless you quickly run back inside?
Some other stuff:
4. Vergos periodically enters a shield phase. Break shield or wipe?
5. Didn’t get to the mech involving the ballista which I understand happens around 68%?
Tips/tricks/advice? Thanks!

"The one thing that I learned was to use Guardian Barrier at the beginning of the fight to avoid push-back and dying."
** *You won't die from getting push back. The only reason to use guardian barrier is for the push back, but not necessary at P2.**
"1. His breath attack. Iframe? Or dodge? Does Guardian Barrier work against his breath attack?"
***Depend if you have the gear (Stromcry+7(?) and up), you can just block it. If not, you have to frame it. You can also iron will and onslaught, that
work too.**
"2. Vergos’ stomps. 3rd foot stomp is instant death unless you time the iframe correctly?"
***Same as above**
"3. Nearly room wide AOE. Run as quickly to the edge. I have trouble with getting there fast enough even with Charging Lunge."
***You can use charging lunge into Leap (if it is off CD when the mechanic happens) or use all your back step iframes or shield bash into onslaught
or if you know when the mechanic will happen, you can just start getting ready to move away.**
"And it seems that the room wide AOE is followed by another outer AOE that will kill you unless you quickly run back inside?"
** *It can be outer aoe or inner aoe; it's 50/50. So after the huge room wide aoe, you want to walk a half of the half way between the boss and the
back wall and wait for the inner or outer aoe to happen and quickly go to the safe side. **
"4. Vergos periodically enters a shield phase. Break shield or wipe?"
***Break both shields or wipe.**
"5. Didn’t get to the mech involving the ballista which I understand happens around 68%?"
***Yes, below 70% and or after second or third shield phase depend on your raid damage.**
(Gear-wise, was at SC +7. After this experience, did some enchanting to SC +8.)
