Role Strategy Matrix

Tank Priority

Face Faldrim away from party and establish high threat before add spawns. Be prepared to pick up Tormented Souls when they appear.

Healer Priority

Stand at maximum casting range (>18 yards) to avoid Echoing Wail silence aura. Pre-hot the tank before add phases.

DPS / CC Priority

Focus and burst Tormented Souls immediately before returning to Faldrim. Do not cast major spells when Echoing Wail begins.
