Telos: Necromancy
Introduction
This guide assumes very strong understanding of everything found in #telos-basic and #Stuns & Mechanics Overview. The rotations listed below are ideally used at 1000%+ enrage. However, they will generally work at a lower enrage as well, and it is encouraged to learn these rotations as early as possible to build good habits and muscle memory. The safe push setup is slower but it will allow for a safer experience whilst climbing enrage, while the fast 2449 farming setup may be used for fast kills while farming this encounter.
Notable Enrage Checkpoints and Changes (999+)
⬥ 1000% P4 one rock will fall, P5 multiple rocks will fall, immortality no longer works P5, and Telos will freedom stuns and binds with a 16 tick cooldown
