Sire Denathrius

This fight has 3 phases and 1 intermission.

Phase 1

Phase 1 has a mini enrage because the boss must have 70% health to get to phase 2 before the platform is covered with anima.
There is a dagger in the middle of the platform (Remoria). When boss reaches 100 energy, 1/3 of the platform is covered in a pizza slice anima that reduces all healing taken by 100% and does Shadow dmg every sec when standing on it.
At the start of the fight, every player gets 5 stacks of a debuff, called Burden of Sin.
Every 2 sec, it does Shadow dmg per stack the player has.
Players must remove at least 3 stacks before phase 1 ends.
Players must be hit by the boss´s frontal cast, called Cleansing Pain to remove Burned of Sin before they run out of space, to avoid Ravage.
Each hit removes 1 stack of Burden of Sin.
The frontal cast (Cleansing Pain) also spawns an add (Echo of Sin) next to each player for each stack that is removed.
Each add casts shadow dmg to all players every 2 sec and cannot be crowd controlled. Must be AoE nuked fast.
Boss will also cast Blood Price that does dmg to all players that have the same amount of stacks of Burden of Sin.
Divide the raid in 2 groups with a tank on each group. Tank swap after each front cast (Cleansing Pain) so that each group will get the hit every 2^nd
HEROIC MODE - After each frontal cast, two boss images will spawn and mark 2 random players (a line between the image and the player) and charge them (Blood Price). The charge must be soaked otherwise it heals boss. Soak by standing on the line, not on the player.

Intermission

Players must run in to the center where boss is before 15 sec or they die.

4 adds will spawn periodiacally. 2 on main platform and 2 on side platforms. Ranged on the ones on the side platforms. Nuke them fast.
