Source notes & beta changes

The checked sources do not establish complete boss tactics, drop tables, or launch timing.

Trash to watch

  • Dark Iron Looter: Fast dagger attacks. Pulling several at once drains the tank quickly.
  • Dark Iron Engineer: Throws bombs at a marked spot, so the damage can be dodged.
  • Dark Iron Summoner: A caster that summons a Fiery Assistant. Break line of sight to pull it to the group.
  • Lesser Stone Golem: Hits hard and moves fast. Kill one at a time and use crowd control.

Quest item enemies: Enraged Apparition, Tormented Soul.
