The Arcway

The Arcway

Dungeon ID: 726

Legion · Dungeon · Requires level 45

As vast as the city of Suramar is, the vast network of tunnels beneath the city spans an even greater reach. Nightborne society has grown to depend on the power of the Nightwell, and the Arcway delivers that lifeblood throughout the city. This labyrinthine complex was built thousands of years ago, running beneath the foundations of the city's largest buildings, and most modern citizens live their lives entirely unaware of what may lurk in the shadows beneath their feet....

Encounters

Ivanyr

Copied!

Cut off from the power of the Nightwell and cast into the dark expanse of the Arcway, Ivanyr wandered aimlessly, slowly withering away, until he came upon a trove in the foundations beneath the great library of Suramar. He spends his days feverishly working to decipher the tomes there, feeding off the power of relics in the achives in order to sustain himself. But even as that magic sustains his body, his mind cracks and weakens.

Overview
As Ivanyr drains mana from the Night Crystal he grows increasingly powerful.

Corstilax

Copied!

This massive construct patrols the tunnels beneath Suramar, searching for anomalies and correcting them. He has detected one such anomaly - a breach in one of the conduits that carries the power of the Nightwell - and works to repair it. But living outsiders wandering the tunnels are also an anomaly; one that Corstilax is empowered to remedy.

Overview
Corstilax guards the Nightwell breach, attempting to limit players' exposure to [Nightwell Energy]. Players must free their allies from [Quarantine] and avoid direct damage from [Suppression Protocol].
Damage Dealers
• [Nightwell Energy] significantly increases haste but will cause [Cleansing Force] to stun you.
Healers
• [Suppression Protocol] inflicts moderate group wide damage.
Tanks
• [Exterminate] inflicts heavy damage and stuns players within 15 yards when [Cleansing Force] ends if they have [Nightwell Energy].

General Xakal

Copied!

When Gul'dan threatened Suramar with destruction if Elisande did not comply with his demands, those were not idle words. A Legion invasion force has burrowed into the tunnels beneath the city, and Xakal leads those forces. He awaits further command, ready at a moment's notice to surge forth and bring death and destruction to the streets of Suramar.

Overview
General Xakal periodically summons Dread Felbats and causes the ground to erupt with [Fel Fissures]. After several waves, he casts [Wicked Slam], inflicting damage to all players and knocking them back.
Damage Dealers
• Avoid [Shadow Slash] when it is targeted towards you. • Position carefully to avoid [Wicked Slam] knocking you into [Fel Fissure].
Healers
• [Wicked Slam] inflicts heavy group wide damage.
Tanks
• Dread Felbats periodically spawn and must be tanked.

Nal'tira

Copied!

This massive spider made its nest in the hollow beneath a great mana tree. Over the years, loose magical energies and runoff have warped the creature, imbuing Nal'tira with arcane energy that makes her perhaps the deadliest predator in the Arcway.

Overview
Nal'tira weakens her enemies and attempts to draw them into her [Tangled Web].
Damage Dealers

Advisor Vandros

Copied!

Vandros is one of Elisande's closest advisors, and an adept at harnessing the arcane magic of the Nightwell, second only to Elisande herself. He would not ordinarily venture into the Arcway himself, but after monitoring the state of the nightfallen resistance and their allies, he now feels the need to take matters into his own hands.

Overview
Advisor Vandros uses the power of the Nightwell to influence time. He frequently summons [Chrono Shards] and attempts to erase players from existence with [Banish In Time].
Damage Dealers
• Interrupt [Accelerating Blast] to prevent it from stacking. • Quickly defeat Timeless Wraiths while [Banished In Time].
Healers
• [Force Bombs] inflict heavy damage to the entire group. • Timeless Wraiths use [Breach] to inflict damage to all nearby players.
Tanks
• Avoid standing near [Chrono Shards]. • Position the boss away from [Force Bombs].
