User:GoldenYak/Borgov Thundergut

Borgov Thundergut was renowned for ferocious combat abilities and a singing voice capable of sharpening axes. When Baelgun Flamebeard put out the call for adventurers to journey into the Underhalls of Doorward and combat the evil there, Borgov was one of the first to answer. The whispers from beneath the earth has stolen his mind, causing him to turn on and slay his allies. Now he wanders the Underhalls in a manic daze, attacking anyone who approaches the Temple of Lucid Dreaming.

Axe of Madness Abilities




Strategy
Borgov will use all of his abilities throughout the encounter, the most critical being Axe Throw. Borgov wields two Axes of Madness, and will use Axe Throw to hurl one into the ground. Axes of Madness produce a Dread Zone around them, which deals damage to anyone inside it. The zone can be removed by looting the Axe of Madness, which will place it in the player's inventory. While a player has an Axe of Madness in their inventory, they will be afflicted with Breaking Sanity, and will go mad if Breaking Sanity reaches 100 stacks. When Borgov is holding one or no axes, he will gain the stacking buff Mounting Fury, which increases his attack power. Players with an Axe of Madness in his inventory can use the item and throw it at a targetable area. If the axe strikes Borgov, he will wield it again. Striking Borgov with axes will reduce the Mounting Fury buff. At any point during the fight when Borgov begins wielding two axes, he will immediately cast Berzerker Whirlwind before attacking normally.

Heroic Mode Strategy

 * Dread Zones will increase in size the longer Axes of Madness remain embedded in the ground.
 * Stacks of the Breaking Sanity debuff will not wear off after a player throws away an Axe of Madness. They will remain on players until the fight has ended.

Achievement

 * I'd Like to Axe You Something - Defeat Borgov with less than 50 stacks of Breaking Sanity.
