- During this phase, the entire platform is dark, you can only see 10 yards around your player.
- The platform has orb traps, that do dmg and reduces your haste by 50%. You can see where they are before it turns dark. Dodge them.

Positioning
Alternative 1
Phase 1
- Divide the raid in two groups with one tank on each side and healers and dps divided evenly.
- Have the groups on opposite sides of the platform.
This way, it will go faster to reach the center of the storm and tank the add on phase 2.
Alternative 2
- Have the tanks standing between the stairs.
This way, the knockback on tanks will have a wall protectiing them from falling to the water.
