Vesperon is a summoned twilight drake in the Obsidian Sanctum, appearing in the fight with Sartharion. Charged with the protection of the twilight eggs in the Sanctum, Vesperon died when a mercenary group recruited by Archmage Lan'dalock on the behest of the Council of Six[2] to breach the Sanctum and destroy the Void-twisted brood fought them.[1]
Abilities
- Power of Vesperon — Vesperon's presence decreases the maximum health of all enemies by 25%.
- Shadow Breath — Inflicts 1869 Fire damage to enemies in a cone in front of the caster.
- Shadow Fissure — Deals 2262 Shadow damage to any enemy within the Shadow fissure after 5 sec.
- Twilight Revenge — Sartharion's attacks become increasingly frenzied as twilight drakes are killed, increasing Physical damage and attack speed by 25%.
If left alive, he will apply his aura, Power of Vesperon, to the entire raid as long as he is alive, decreasing everyone's maximum health by 25%.
Strategies
Vesperon should be tanked facing away from the raid.
Periodically, Vesperon opens a portal to the Twilight. A team of DPS, armed with a healer and tank, should head into the portal and nuke down the add that spawns inside it. All members take 1000 Shadow damage per second while in the portal, so healing can be intensive or players can leap out as required. A shadow resistance buff from a priest is helpful here.
In a 10-man, the entire raid — except for the main tank, who stays on Vesperon, and a healer to heal the main tank — should head into the portal. In 25-man raids, the number that enters the portal is not as important.
Rinse and repeat until Vesperon is dead.
