03/22 - Flame Leviathan Testing

[Boubouille]

03/22 - Flame Leviathan Testing
The testing of Flame Leviathan is now active on both US and EU PTR Realms. It looks like it will be the last boss test before the next PTR build.

Testing has been cancelled ... Well, that was a short one.
[blizzquote="Daelo;http://blue.mmo-champion.com/12/15864258392-flame-leviathan-on-us-ptr-delayed-mar-22.html]We're having problems getting Ulduar open, and from EU testing there's some nasty bugs present as well. Due to these problems, we're going to cancel today's test. [/blizzquote"]

Fight Information
Flame Leviathan Health - 20M (10-Man) / 62M (25-Man)

Every 30 seconds he will switch targets to another siege vehicle, mark them, and follow them around. If you do not have two siege vehicles active then he will pick a different unit.

He has a soft enrange due to Gathering Speed. You have to kite him, thanks to Battering Ram, and it becomes harder and harder to get away from him even with help from Steam Rush.

• Flame Jets: Inflicts 2000 Fire damage to enemies around the caster. 50 yard range. Interruptable.
• Battering Ram: a melee range attack, Rams the target, dealing damage and knocking it forward. Debuffs them with "Battering Ram": Damage taken increased by 100%.
• Gathering Speed: periodically he moves a bit faster by gaining another stack of this buff. The stack is reset when he is stunned by Overload Circuit.
• He also fires rockets constantly at the raid, doing about 700 damage each time they land (about once every 1-2 seconds)
• He has 4 turrets. Passengers in the demolisher can be launched at him where they can destroy the turrets and then hit the Overload Circuit: stuns Flame Leviathan and causes him to take 50% more damage for 10 seconds.

Player Vehicles
The vehicles have a base HP that then increases based on the ilvl of your gear (tip: stop DE'ing trash epics with high ilevels and save them for Ulduar!)

Salvaged Siege Engine
This vehicle demolishes towers as you clear the gauntlet and kites the Flame Leviathan. It can carry a passenger.

Driver

• Ram: 15 yard range, 4 second cooldown, instant. Rams any enemies in front of the demolisher, dealing 5,400 to 6,600 damage and knocking them back. Also deals 2,850 to 3,150 siege damage to buildings.
• Electroshock: 38 energy, 10 second cooldown, instant. Shocks all targets within a 25 yard cone in front of the caster. It also interrupts spellcasting and prevents any spell in that school from being cast for 4 seconds.

Salvaged Demolisher

• Launch Passenger: launches the Demolisher's passenger into the air.

Passenger

• Cannon: 40 yard range. Instant, 1 second cooldown. Fires an explosive missile directly forward, detonating when it has traveled 50 yards, hitting any enemies within 10 yards.

• Load into Catapult: instant, 30 second cooldown. Load yourself into the catapult arm, using yourself as ammunition.

Salvaged Chopper
This motorcycle model is very fast and moves very adroitly (it can strafe, for example.) It can carry a passenger.

• Sonic Horn: Instant, 20 energy. Sends a wave of force in front of the motorcycle, causing 3150 to 3850 damage to all enemy targets within 35 yards in a frontal cone.
• Tar: Instant, 15 second cooldown. Drops a pool of tar for 45 seconds that slows the movement speed of enemies wihtin 10 yards. Tar can be ignited. Lasts for 45 seconds

[Evilsithgirl]

US testing has been canceled due to issues with Ulduar. the dev just made a server announcement on Broxigar US

[Skulli]

Do they even test that stuff internally? You cannot kill turrets, so you cannot stun him and reset the speed buff.
There also seems to be some bugs with the pyrite itself.
Further does he get the orbital buff on engage with +0% dmg/hp but he still gains roughly 10milhp ( no towers destroyed).
Also after killing him that way (0 Towers destroyed) we got the achievement for 4 tower hardmode and that normal mode is just boring and way to easy.
Last week with stuns we destroyed him in under 1 minute.

[Photek]

bugged boss is bugged ._. no new loot

I have a screencap of the announcement on Anasterian (US PvP): testing cancelled.

[LavaDuck]

That sucks for the testers!

[Orcasaurus]

At least they finally figured out what raiding resto shaman want their relics to look like.

[bbr]

What's with the lasher?

Flame Leviathan 25man - Kill

Quite bugged encounter.
This was supposed to be hard mode, though it diden't work correctly.
We got all 5 achievements none the less though!
