Overview

Ysera set the mightiest of her green dragons to guard the four portals between Azeroth and the Emerald Dream. The Nightmare has corrupted them, and Emeriss now emerges at one of the groves, attacking anyone nearby.

Abilities

Only Emeriss

Volatile Infection
A disease on a random player for 2 minutes that deals Nature damage to everyone around them.
Corruption of the Earth
At 75%, 50% and 25% health: everyone within 100 yards loses 20% of their maximum health every 2 seconds for 10 seconds.
Summon Putrid Mushroom
Each player who dies leaves a Putrid Mushroom on their corpse that damages anyone nearby.

All four dragons

Noxious Breath
Nature damage in front of the dragon and a 30-second poison that stacks, dealing damage and adding 10 seconds to the victim's ability cooldowns.
Seeping Fog
Clouds of Dream Fog drift after random players and put anyone they touch to sleep.
Tail Sweep
Damages and knocks back everyone in a cone behind the dragon.
Mark of Nature
Players who die to the dragon are marked for 15 minutes. Rejoining the fight while marked puts them to sleep for two minutes.

Tactics

Before 75%, 50% and 25%, everyone who isn't needed to heal the tank runs more than 100 yards away to avoid Corruption of the Earth.
Dispel Volatile Infection quickly, and don't let anyone die near the raid: every corpse sprouts a mushroom.
Tank the dragon facing away from the raid, and keep everyone away from its tail.
Ranged players and healers spread out at range so one Dream Fog cloud can't catch several of them.
Bring a second tank: Noxious Breath slows the main tank's cooldowns, and a sleeping tank needs cover. Only the tanks should take the breath.
The dragons are immune to Nature damage.
