Shriekwing

Shriekwing is the first boss of Castle Nathria. After defeating Shriekwing, players may choose the Huntsman Altimor, Sun King's Salvation or Artificer Xy'mox encounters.

Shriekwing is a two phase encounter which requires players to utilize line of sight to counteract some of the mechanics that this boss sends their way. The first phase has the raid fighting the boss head on, while Phase Two has the entire raid hiding from the boss at all times while dodging her ever-searching sonic rings!
