Hey good ones! How's life going for you? We hope well because today we bring you the official guide to GuíasWoW of Storm Blockade, boss of this new raid recently added in patch 8.1.0, the Battle of Dazar'alor. Without further ado, let's get to it!
Battle of Dazar'alor
The Battle of Dazar'alor is the second band that we will see in this expansion, Battle for Azeroth, where we will be able to continue the history of both factions and the battle that will take place in the main city of the Zandalari. Will the Alliance end the Horde once and for all or ... will it be the Horde who manages to defend the great city of gold from which its newest allies come?
The Alliance assaults the heart of the Zandalari Empire in Battle of Dazar'alor, a new raid that offers unique encounters for Horde and Alliance players, as well as the opportunity to participate in events from the opposing faction's point of view.
Since time immemorial, Dazar'alor has stood at the center of the vast and powerful Zandalari empire. Its guards have thwarted numerous attempts to kill King Rastakhan, and the structure has survived hardships both in recent times and in the past. However, as war nears the shores of Zuldazar, the Alliance embarks on a daring ploy to lay siege to the golden pyramid and break the Zandalari's link with the Horde.
Blockade of the Storm
Brother Joseph and Sister Katherine are devoted worshipers of the waves. As proud natives of Kul Tiras, they would risk their lives to ensure the safety of their compatriots. Their mastery of the sea and the storm is something to behold, as are the ancient and powerful rituals they practice.
On this occasion, we will once again have the collaboration of Yuki y zashi. Here is the complete guide to Blocking the Storm:
Without further ado, let's start with the boss's guide.
Summary
Intended to protect much of the Alliance fleet during their retreat, Stormsong Tide Priests have formed a blockade and summoned an Overwhelming Elemental to obliterate the area of Dazar'alor Harbor. Reestablish a position on the docks, flood the Alliance ships, and return the summoned monstrosity to the depths before it wreaks havoc on the city.

Strategy
In this encounter, we will begin by attacking both brothers who will meet at the edges of the encounter. This first phase will last until we have defeated both brothers, starting the second and facing the main boss.
Normal
Phase 1: Assault the ships
To carry out this first phase, we must divide the band into two groups with the same number of players. One of them will face the Brother Joseph and, the other group, to the Sister Katherine.
When either of the two brothers dies, the Transfer stand that will be in that ship will be activated, transporting the group that has finished with that brother to the other to help their companions to finish with the remaining brother.
Let's talk about the powers of both brothers:
- Sea storm It will be a basic ability that will be released from time to time, marking several players with a little blue arrow. After a short channeled, Joseph will launch an ice storm at the marked player, leaving an area that deals damage to a surrounding 5 meter area and slows players within it. They will have to be placed on the edges of the ship to allow a clean combat area.
- Temptation of the sea will use it every long period of time, invoking a Tempting mermaid. This will channel Tempting song on a random player, mentally controlling him and making him move to one of the edges of the ship, then jump overboard and end his life. These mermaids must die before the players are thrown overboard.
- Tidal Shroud It will be another of the faculties that we must take into account since it is thrown from time to time. Upon activation, it will place a shield on itself and begin to channel Tidal enhancement. It will be necessary to break the shield and cut the channeled since, if it reaches 100 energy points, it will be whipe.
- Save from the tides he will cast it all the time and will deal raid damage.
- Voltaic flash it will be a faculty that you use throughout the meeting from time to time. After being channeled, blue rays will appear on the edges of the ship that will pierce the ship from side to side, dealing large amounts of damage to players hit.
- Crackling lightning It will be an ability that casts from time to time, just like the others, and will cast it on a random player. Upon its expiration, it will drop an energy sphere that will damage nearby players due to Thunderous boom.
- Electric shroud will function in the same way as his brother Joseph, channeling Storm empowerment.
- Shake will work the same way as Save from the tides.
After finishing with both brothers, we will move on to the second phase.
Phase 2: Laminaria
After the beginning of the second phase, we will have to take into account several faculties. The first of them and the most important, Laminaria will use Wide attack on a random player if there is no one in his range, which can sometimes be a problem. The rest of its powers we will expose here:
- Seaweed covered fists it will be a brand that you will use on tanks continually. When it dissipates or expires, apply Seaweed cover to any player near the dispelled tank, applying the same number of marks that have been dispelled.
- Surge will be thrown from time to time on random players, damaging them and leaving a Frozen tide pool underfoot, hurting over time as we stay inside.
- Wrath of the deep With this ability, an orb will appear in a random area of combat that will descend according to the time that, after 5 seconds, will explode, dealing lethal damage. This damage can be distributed among the players who are within the area. In the event that they are not socketed, more Frozen tide pool in combat
- Howl of the storm every minute or so, it will cast that ability on a random player. This debuff will deal damage and allow the caster to clear all Frozen tide pool that are in combat. Upon its expiration, it will invoke a Energized storm who will approach the boss from his position slowly and launch Energizing wake if it reaches it.
If everything goes well, we will have no problem defeating him.
Heroic
- When an elemental summoned by Howl of the storm dies, it is transferred to another player by broadcasting Unleashed energy in all directions.
- Both brothers will get Move that they will use when they reach 50% of their maximum health, exchanging their current positions and allowing the entire gang to fight against both brothers.
