Mount Ordeals
Mount Ordeals is a level 90 trial introduced in Patch 6.3, where players face Rubicante, the Archfiend of Fire. This 8-player trial features complex rotational mechanics and an add phase.
Rubicante
Phase 1
| Mechanic | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Inferno | Raidwide | Heavy party-wide fire damage. Heal and mitigate. |
| Ordeal of Purgation | AoE | Three rings appear with blue lines connecting to outer symbols. The orange-glowing line indicates which symbol will erupt in a conal AoE toward the center. A Penance buff will freeze you in place when it expires—position in a safe spot before being rooted. |
| Ordeal of Purgation (Rotating) | AoE | On the second cast, the inner purple ring rotates (watch the arrows). This changes which symbol erupts—calculate the new safe zone based on rotation direction. |
| Shattering Heat | Tankbuster | Single-target tank buster. Use defensive cooldowns. |
| Arch Inferno | AoE | Rotating circular AoEs sweep clockwise around the arena. Keep moving along the edges. A fiery tornado in the center also knocks back players who get too close. |
| Conflagration | AoE | Line AoE through the arena center. Move to the sides. |
| Radial Flagration | AoE | Conal AoEs from the boss in a starburst pattern. Stand between the cones. |
Phase 2 - Add Phase
| Mechanic | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Greater Flamesent | Adds | Rubicante becomes invulnerable and summons adds. Kill them before the power gauge reaches 100%. |
| Flamesent Adds | Adds | Three additional Flamesent enemies spawn. Focus DPS on all adds. |
| Inferno (Spread) | Spread | During the add phase, Inferno becomes targeted AoEs on each player. Spread out while killing adds. |
Notes: The Ordeal of Purgation mechanic is the key to this fight. Watch the glowing orange line carefully and account for ring rotation on subsequent casts. Position yourself in the safe zone before Penance freezes you.
