Storm's Crown
Storm’s Crown is a level 90 trial introduced in Patch 6.2, where players face Barbariccia, the Empress of the Winds and one of Golbez’s four Archfiends. The fight features wind-based mechanics across two distinct phases.
Barbariccia
Phase 1
| Mechanic | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Void Aero IV | Raidwide | Unavoidable party-wide damage. Heal and mitigate. |
| Savage Barbery (Line) | AoE | Line AoE down the arena center, followed by her thrown sword creating a circle AoE where it lands. |
| Savage Barbery (Ring) | AoE | Large ring AoE with a safe spot close to the boss. Move into her hitbox. |
| Hair Raid | Cleave | Conal AoE after Savage Barbery. Run toward Barbariccia’s sword to avoid the cleave. |
| Hair Spray | Spread | Later versions of Hair Raid include spread markers on all players. Spread out while dodging. |
| Void Aero III | Tankbuster | Heavy tank damage with a stacking debuff. Both tanks should group together with defensive cooldowns. |
| Teasing Tangles | AoE | Four circle AoEs appear and players get tethered to each. You cannot leave your circle without taking damage and a DoT debuff. Stay inside until the mechanic resolves. |
Phase 2 - Wind Phase
| Mechanic | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Wind Border | AoE | A wind border appears around the arena edge. Entering it deals damage and inflicts Windburn DoT. |
| Curling Iron | Knockback | Transition ability with knockback. Position to avoid being knocked into the wind border. |
Notes: Watch Barbariccia’s sword position to determine which Savage Barbery variant is coming. Stay aware of your tether during Teasing Tangles—breaking it early results in unnecessary damage and debuffs.
