Sparky is a tank and spank encounter. Throughout the encounter additional enemies will attack the operation team.

Tanks
  • When Sparky uses Shoulder Throw , the main tank will be launched away behind Sparky. Sparky will clear all threat from the main tank. The second tank should be utilize to pick up the boss quickly.
  • When the adds come out, Sparky will use Shield Collar Overdrive to shield himself. The main tank should continue to hold Sparky. The second tank should grab all of the adds.
  • When Sparky uses Rampage/Pounce , he will jump randomly at several players. During this time, Sparky is unable to be taunted.
  • When Sparky uses Pinned Down , he will jump on top of a random player for a short period of time. During this time, Sparky is unable to be taunted.
DPS
  • When the additional enemies come out, all DPS players should turn and focus on those immediately.
  • Once the Shield Collar Overdrive shield has expired, Sparky will fall on the ground. Sparky will take additional damage during this period. DPS should use their high damaging abilities while Sparky is laying on the ground.
  • When Sparky uses Rampage/Pounce, he will jump randomly at several players. During this time, DPS players should spread out. As higher item rating gear is gained, players could group up for AOE heals.
  • When Sparky uses Pinned Down, he will jump on top of a random player for a short period of time. The player pounced upon will be unable to move during the duration of the ability.
Healers
  • When the additional enemies come out, if a healer is targeted, be sure to move towards the tank, for the tank to grab the adds.
  • When Sparky uses Rampage/Pounce, he will jump randomly at several players. During this time, healers should spread out. As higher item rating gear is gained, players could group up for AOE heals.
  • When Sparky uses Pinned Down , he will jump on top of a random player for a short period of time. Be sure to focus healing towards the player pinned down.

Near the end of the fight near 30% he'll put up a shield again Shield Collar Overdrive. Burn it down and ignore any adds he spawns. This is the final burn phase and will end the fight. After the boss is dead clean up any adds left over.

Hard Mode

Hard Mode Guide

Hard mode is pretty similar with only a few changes.


Sparky will have a buff called Safety of the Pack which will make adds stronger if they are near him. The goal in hard mdoe is to keep the adds outside of the circle Sparky casts around himself to avoid this. Dps and Healer should spread out around the circle so the adds stick to them before going toward the tank inside the circle. The tank not on the boss call also "pull" adds outside the circle range that do manager to get to the boss.

Stacks of Rending Swipe will accumiltate on the tank which can prove difficult in the burn phase at the end.

Sparky will place a debuff on the tanks Delicious and they will need to swap after 2 stacks. While still managing to keep the adds outside of Sparky's circle.

During the phase where Sparky Pinned Down the tank. All of the other raid members need to get inside Sparky's circle and dps him quickly. Staying outside the circle could result in a one shot to the tank.

When you reach the burn phase Sparky will become Despiration and will no longer be able to use his pack ability. Burn him as usual to end the fight, ignoring the adds.
