Runes of Magic US / AU

So I went in the instance for the first time... seemed pretty cool. I have some preliminary findings that I will list to help others and hopefully others will help too.

best thing about the instance, most mobs can be aggro'd separately.

1st Boss:

This is actually 3 bosses. Need to kill all 3 around the same time for they will rez up after 30 sec I think. Once the fight starts and you start working on bosses, 2 of them ports to the pads and don't move or attack you directly (can still attack them, think they get lower dmg though). they will cast aoe's and stuff on the boss in the middle. the boss in the middle rotate between the 3 and after all 3 have been in the middle all 3 comes out for a few secs and the process repeats.
1 of the bosses have a buff that stacks to 10, once it reaches 10 it does a pretty good amount of aoe, I think it can be avoided by moving away from it.
another has the buff that it receives less dmg if it is near any of the other bosses.
I didn't check what the last boss buff is.
Things that I think is a good idea is to spread out and watch for aoe's. specially where one of the bosses when on a pad throws out a line of balls that does a good dot if u stay in it. Staggered burns on different bosses would be best.
other than that I didn't notice anything special.

2nd Boss:

3 main things to watch out for:
1) it will call out a person and say watch your step, if that person move in 10 secs after being called out, massive aoe around that person to all party members (no dmg on the person I think)
2) it will all out a person and say lets see who you abhor, massive aoe around that person after 10sec to any other party member near him.
3) it gives a choice between 2 colors, you need to look at the huge ball in the boss's hand to find out which color to choose. choosing the correct color gives you no aoe dmg, choosing it wrong give 99% I think. this happens 3 or 4 times during the fight and when it happens boss is immune to dmg.

3rd boss:

Didn't notice anything special, was burnable

4th boss:

3 things for this boss too:

1) boss spawns a white tiny crystal so imaginatively named crystal, if ur in 50 range of it, it does a continuous dot. can kill it pretty easily.
2) boss likes to show you nightmares pretty often, basically it will call out a person and say see your nightmares, which will give u a BUFF fear (strange it isn't a debuff), causing you to run around like a chicken with it head cut off. at the end of the fear there is a little dmg (aoe I think).
3) every 20% boss likes to disappear and spawn 3 red crystals called illusion crystals. they have a buff that massively reduce dmg received. we were only able to respawn the boss by either killing all the illusion crystals or just 1 of them. took sooo long, good thing we had a p/m to let us recover mp. would be nice if someone knows a good way to either kill the illusion crystals faster or somehow get the boss to spawn without killing them. I did notice dots were doing pretty much as good as other single target dmg.
another thing to note: if everyone runs back to the gate, can get the boss to reset.

edit: ok found the strat for 4th boss crystals. need to spawn 2 of the white crystals called crystals near each other, than 1 person has to stand near both in such a way to get hit by both. This will make that person get a debuff that says something to the effect of crystal resonance blah blah blah. once you have that buff kill all the white crystals so u don't get dot'd to death. so with the debuff on, go to each of the illusion crystals (big red ones) and stay on it for 2-3 sec, the right crystal will lose the err yellow? circle underneath it.

the only thing to note is that while ur waiting on the 2 white crystals to spawn together, make sure some1 is hitting the illusion crystals any way or otherwise the boss resets.

5th boss:

pretty ugly. also burnable. all the casts it does are interruptable. one thing it does is a dot, one is aoe fear around the boss, one is calling immune mobs to attack u (think u can kite the mobs), another is a channel attack skill and one is to slow u down.

so any ideas to find out what color to choose on the 2nd boss and how to respawn the 4th boss quickly?

edit: to add to 2nd boss strat, thanks SHAYdynasty.

edit2: added strat for 4th boss. Thanks to all the Disturbed players for dieing with me to find it!

SHAYdynasty is right, 2nd boss has a huge ball in his hands when he gives you the color choice that correspond to the color u need to pick.

I know there is someway to get the 4th boss out faster, we were able to get it out WITHOUT killing the illusion crystals... unfortunately don't know how it happened...

boss 2 "Deathly Mistrust" seems to be hit or miss... 2 people on the same color pad, 1 dies and 1 doesn't get dmg'd :/

and we made boss 5 run away! it went invis without dieing and kept sending mobs to attack us. think we might have burned it too fast (2 m/wd, 1 m/w, wl/ch and wd/s without chiron burning).

Quoted from "SaitoHajime"

As for boss 2 as mentioned earlier, it's that the text change of the cast hasnt been imported in time. It still says <bla> instead of <color> <bla>.

hmmm... it gives us a choice of 2 colors something to the effect of saying "Guess what color is it: Blue or Green". I think that part is correct, they want us to check the color of the ball it's holding and decide which color it is and to help, they give us 2 choice.

those line of balls focuses on 1 person only, my guess is the highest dps, but it would change targets once it started that phase. my advice is to find out who that person is and have him run around away from other ppl
