-Trash: I just ran and feigned every so often. Tentacles apply a nasty dot if no one is around so for that I feigned + stone form as a dwarf. Others may just have to kill the two tentacles on the way before Professor.
-Domina: I tried following Durendil's strategy of outranging the ambushers, but I would randomly reach a point every time where I would just suffer massive damage even with optimal positioning, so I have no idea what went wrong. I followed another guide on Youtube that essentially required you to put your back to the tower's door and kill the boss there. When ambushers come, use feign death AFTER their blade has gotten to you. This way they de-aggro. Burn the boss as fast as possible and repeat every time ambushers come. I won with 7% health remaining or something
-Stradama: easy. Pop cds at the start so you will have them in p3. Having one add in p1 is ideal so try to burn her to 66% asap. Always get in the slime circle created by the adds because otherwise you get huge damage. Also stay on the edge of the circle opposite to the boss because otherwise she will insta aggro you and whack you.
Phase 2 is the hardest because you have to get to 33% without any cds. Adds are a priority and getting in the circle is a must. I ended this phase at about 40% hp left and with 4 adds spawning, but 2 of them died without circles, luckily.
If you get through, you are basically done. Survive the tentacle slams, dish out your hero pet, and hero + pot + all cds when she shows her ugly mug. She will melt very quickly (literally, lol). Go back, take the teleporter to the surface, and pet the gross boi to get the mount.
