High Sage Viryx (tactics)

High Sage Viryx is the final Boss of Skyreach in Spires of Arak.

''High Sage Viryx has dedicated her rule wholly to harnessing Apexis artifacts in service of Rukhmar's will. At last, thanks to the completion of the massive crystal superweapon that focuses the sun's energy to destroy their enemies, it is time for the arakkoa to claim their rightful place as rulers of Draenor.''

High Sage Viryx calls down the powerful arakkoa focusing lens to scorch the ground beneath his foes, as Shield Constructs enter to protect their master.

• Defeat Zealots quickly before they can Cast Down by dropping them off the edge of Skyreach.
• Defeat Shield Constructs, which protect Viryx with Shielding while they live.
• Move away from Lens Flare and avoid leading the destructive beam through your allies.

• Move away from Lens Flare and avoid leading the destructive beam through your allies.

• Shield Constructs prevent all damage to High Justicar Viryx via Shielding until they are dispatched.
• Interrupt High Sage Viryx's Solar Burst to prevent significant damage.

Cast Down is Viryx's most deadly ability, summoning an adherent to pick up a random party member and drop them off the edge of the balcony similar to the Lich King's Summoned Valkyr. Lens Flare will create a large patch of fire under one of the party members. Positioning is important because if the party stacks too close to the center of the arena, it will be much harder to dodge Lens Flare, but if they stack too far apart or close to the edge, it will be harder to save players from being dropped. Viryx should be tanked close to the entrance to keep a good distance between the cliff and the melee.

Viryx will also summon Shield Constructs which spawn at the entrance to the arena. They must be killed quickly and their shield ability interrupted. If the party is going for Monomania, the constructs can be safely cc'd by anything that affects mechanical targets. A hunter's freezing trap is especially effective.
