Design Corner: Time-Lost Halls of Karazhan Part 3

The Echo of Medivh prevents the Time-Lost Halls from disappearing, keeping the portal to Draenor open. Defeat the Echo to close the rift in time and space.

Encounter description and design notes:

• Arcane Blast – Deals 80,000 arcane damage to the target. Medivh gains Arcane Infusion on target.
  • Arcane Infusion – Increases Arcane Blast damage by 15%. Increases all magic damage by 1.5%. Stacks.
  • Note: Just means Medivh will do increasing damage on the target with this ability.. had to change wording to fit it in the photoshopped dungeon journal entry.
• Arcanic Thunder – Puts an arcanic storm in the targeted area, any player standing in it will take 120,000 arcane damage per second.
• Mana implosion – Medivh expels the mana from the targeted players, causing their mana to be depleted and spawns mana orbs around the room for each player’s mana that was depleted.
  • Mana Orb – Restores 30,000 mana when picked up by a player.
• Mana explosion – Medivh detonates the mana orbs floating around in the room, dealing 30,000 arcane damage to every player per orb.
• Consume Essence – Every 20% health the Echo of Medivh will draw on the essence from enemies once defeated, resulting in one final echo from your foes. Medivh can have up to 2 essences active at the same time. Resets Arcane Infusion stacks.
  • Howl of the Den Mother – Echo of Medivh summons Fel Pup Echoes.
    • Fel Pup Echo – Deals 30,000 auto attack damage every second.
  • Fire Pulse – Deals 100,000 fire damage to every player every 5 seconds. Medivh gains a stack of Fired Up! Resets on Essence change.
    • Fired Up! – Increases fire damage dealt by 1%.
  • Summon Duplicate Echo of Atiesh – The duplicate Echo of Atiesh deals 50,000 arcane damage to a random player.
    • Sore Spot – Increases magic damage by 10% per stack. Resets on Essence change.
  • Arcane Beam – A beam of arcane energy travels around the room, if the player gets hit by it they will take 250,000 arcane damage.
  • Empowered Staff – Atiesh becomes heavy, dealing heavy physical damage to the player
• Wrath of the Last Guardian – At 30% health Echo of Medivh goes into a frenzy, breaking the barrier between the magical ley lines and the Time-Lost Halls.
  • Mirror Image – Summons 3 Mirror Images that each cast a bolt in a different spell school.
  • Sargeras’ Wrath
    • Sargeras’ spirit deep within the echo unleashes his anger, destroying any mortal who gets hit. Find cover!
    • Demonified Medivh voice over: “Die you pathetic mortals!”
• Development notes:
  • The tower room is very big and circular. Next to the Echo of Medivh there are holograms of each of the previous bosses that have all been defeated by the raid. Medivh is seen channeling a beam with which he’s drawing the essence from Celeus.
  • During the 2nd phase, the air color will change, showing the collapse of the dimension of the Time-Lost Halls. After the defeat of the Echo of Medivh the environment will continue to have this light, creating a sense of urgency to get out and escape the dimension, back to Draenor.
  • Sargeras’ Wrath gets cast at 10% health, causing an explosion of chaos damage. A bubble safe zone will appear for players to stand in to not get killed by the ability.
  • When Mana Implosion is cast, the more mana a player had, the more mana orbs will spawn. This means later in the fight it’ll have less effect.

On Mythic Difficulty Medivh draws upon the powers of enemies you have faced in the past, outside of the Time-Lost Halls. This replaces the Echoes from normal/heroic.
