Currently Under Construction; Part of the Forge of Goblinium raid concept

Mecha Volcanoth is an optional boss encounter of Forge of Goblinium. Its defeat is not required to progress passed the first wing.

Background

Dungeon Journal

The fire turtle Volcanoth served as a god to the pygmies of the Lost Isles until it was slain by the Bilgewater Cartel. Once the isles' volcanic activity had calmed, the Sparknozzle Cartel traveled to the isles where they gathered the great beast’s remains. Fused to mechanical gizmos and alchemic compounds, Volcanoth lives again. If she hadn't broken free from its bindings and torched much of the forge's laboratory, her resurrection could be seen as a success.

Description

Lore buffs will recognize Volcanoth as the turtle whose death was required for an arc in the goblin starting experience. This time, Volcanoth has been turned into a mechanical experiment gone wrong. The fight centers on the Blistering Heat mechanic, generated by the intense flames raging in the battlefield. Blistering Heat makes the players take more fire damage per stack. If the raid doesn't defeat Mecha Volcanoth fast enough, the raidwide fire damage will eventually be enough to wipe the group. Limited numbers of waterbombs will drop occasionally to help reset stacks of Blistering Heat. Along with a DPS positioning mechanic and a tank swap that helps kill adds, the encounter is not especially difficult, as it will be one of the first bosses the players tackle in the raid.
