Chapter 1957: Getting Wiped Even After the Boss Dies

Of course, Lu Li had to give it to the person who deserved it. Darkness eventually held the new hammer in her hands.
Everyone knew that Sorrowless wanted to retire because of this girl. However, although everyone was curious, no one dared to ask him.
Who knew what the true relationship between them was?
Lu Li managed to take the Thief’s shoes, but they were so eye-catching that his girl wanted them. As such, he eventually gave up the shoes to her.
After dividing up the items, they continued to fight the monsters like before.
The next group of miscellaneous monsters had two new additions.
There was the Fel Stalker that could burn mana and the Giant Infernal, which had an Immolation Aura that could burn nearby players.
Without saying anything, everyone began fighting the monsters.
The only complication was when some players stood too far forward and had almost all of their mana burned. They had no choice but to find their own way of regenerating their mana, but this slowed down their damage output and affected the First Clearing Team’s rhythm.
This meant that they managed to get wiped even before they reached the Boss.
Everyone went back the Orc camp to repair their equipment. Remnant Dream was occupying herself by looting the bodies that they hadn’t had time to loot previously.
There were just too many monsters and looting them one at a time seemed tiresome, but she didn’t seem to think so.
“You see what I looted?!” the little Hunter exclaimed as she jumped up and happily showed off her new item.
Fist of Molten Fury!
This was an Epic weapon!
It was also part of a Transmog Set, so everyone immediately surrounded her.
“It looks like a Shaman’s weapon – why would a Thief use this thing? I want to delete the Shaman class. It’s one thing for the Boss to drop items that no one wants, but now even the monsters are making fun of us by dropping Epic equipment that no one wants,” Azure Sea Breeze’s sighed. His face looked like he had nothing left to hope for.
This was just some of his nonsense, but everyone else seemed to agree.
“This is pretty good! Keep going Dreamy; find the other one.”
Sakura Memories managed to claim the equipment at the base DKP cost. Regardless of its attributes, it was still worthy of collection because of its appearance.
“Okay! Memories sister, I will definitely get it for you,” the little red hand promised.
After the mobs were cleared out, they finally found the fourth Boss – Azgalor.
Azgalor was once an aide to Mannoroth, leader of the Demon Army. Since Mannoroth was executed by Grom Hellscream, he replaced him and led the Demon Army himself.
Azgalor was not as intelligent as his predecessor, but his enthusiasm for chaos, violence and torture was beyond anyone’s imagination.
His first task was to coordinate an attack with Archimonde to attack the Mount Hyjal.
Azgalor unleashed an incomparably powerful demon force, whose offensive power destroyed any mortal defences that dared to oppose him.
However, just when the Burning Legion thought that victory was in sight, Archimonde was caught in Malfurion Stormrage’s trap and was killed under the World Tree. The Burning Legion had been defeated once again.
During the battle, Azgalor went missing.
The players had to stop him from defeating the Warchief Saar. During this battle, the Warchief was a weak NPC that could be trampled to death at any time.
After practicing a few times and taking on-board some of Lu Li’s advice, Sky Moon eventually asked the Main Tank to pull the Boss an unexpected distance of 100 yards away from Saar. This split the battle into two. One half was involved in fighting the Boss, while the other half defended Saar from the Apolcalyse Guards that were dropping from the sky.
Getting wiped repeatedly also meant that they killed more mobs.
“I got it! Ah, never mind – it’s another Fist of Molten Fury. I’m looking for the Claw of Molten Fury. I’ll keep going!” Remnant Dream announced. She had looted another Epic equipment.
The only pity was that it was the same as the previous one.
Lu Li gave it to Water Fairy for no cost. After all, no one else wanted it.
Given that they were being wiped like this, a pair of Epic weapons wasn’t a bad consolation. Also, since they were struggling so much in the fourth Boss, the other guilds would definitely not be doing well either.
They eventually started to gain more experience, and the players started to grasp the skills required to fight this Boss.
For example, when the Boss was moving too quickly, Sky Moon would send the couple to harass him. They would use their Stealth to travel the long distance and use their skills to interrupt the Boss. Not only would this interrupt the Boss’ attacks, but sometimes even its movement too.
Whenever this happened, the singles of the party were pleased that the couple had been sent away.
They couldn’t kill the couple themselves, but sending them to a fight where they could easily be killed was close enough.
When Azgalor rushed in, they had to ensure that Misdirection was cast. You never wanted to pull this Boss into a fight with Saar because the Warchief was a seriously weak NPC.
The tank had to quickly grab the Boss’ aggro, otherwise, it might be snatched by the NPCs.
This was the most shameful thing that could happen to a tank.
This happened once to Azure Sea Breeze because he wasn’t managing the aggro well. As a result, the NPC died and they had to restart.
Azgalor had a lot of skills and whenever something started raining down the best course of action was to run away.
The key skill was Azgalor’s Growl; most people called this the Howl.
Azgalor’s Growl was a deadly skill with a range of 99 yards. This range was the reason Azure Sea Breeze had to pull the Boss so far away from Saar.
It was used 15 seconds after of the start of the battle, and would be repeated 15-20 seconds thereafter.
The range was very long and although Saar was safe, the players couldn’t run that far.
The furthest escape skill that they had was no more than 40 yards, so they were all trapped within Growl range.
Before Azgalor used Growl, the tank had to have as much HP as possible and be stacked with as many healing-over-time buffs as possible. If the Main Tank survived the attack, then they had a chance of beating the Instance Dungeon. Otherwise, they would have to leave the Instance Dungeon and rethink their strategy.
This Boss could also summon monsters with an interesting ability. Every 50 seconds, he would pick one of the players. The player would die within the next 20 seconds, after which an Apocalypse Guard would be summoned at the body.
In order to prevent these Apocalypse Guards from interrupting the Boss fight, the players that were marked like this were sent to die near Saar.
Those near Saar would arrange for two tanks to aggro this monster. Of course, even though it was just a monster, they still needed a healer. As such, there was a healer ready to receive the player too.
Lu Li and the others used almost the entire week to finally defeat Azgalor.
At that, there was a lot of excitement. Everyone was jumping and laughing.
Even after the Boss died, the team could still get wiped, which was the most annoying part.
The monsters that had been summoned were unlike the ones from the past. Even after the Boss died, the Apocalypse Guards were still there. Since the team didn’t take the threat seriously, only a handful of these monsters was enough to kill the few surviving players.
