Ruins of Lxanvom – Crypt of Decay
BERTOXXULOS
I have no other word to describe this fight but “stressful”. Fights with a time limit always make everyone a little more nervous, which contributes to the insuccess rate. Make sure your raid knows there’s no room for error and no time for quick AFK’s, everyone is needed with full attention.
Shrink and fully buff everyone before going down, paying special attention to Magic Resist and Attack buffs (Ferocity, if you have a Beastlord handy). Bards should be singing Psalm of Veeshan for resists and Damage Shield for melee. Damage Shields and Attack buffs are absolutely necessary for keeping aggro, so keep your main tanks in a bard group.
The trigger to this event is the Spectre of Corruption, which respawns 3 days after the death of Bertox, or if the event is insuccessful, 4 to 6 hours after the failure. Once the Spectre is dead, you have a few minutes before the entire script starts, so make sure you notice when the zone-wide emote takes place: you will have 2 hours after that to complete the event and kill Bertoxxulos.
Bertoxxulos (Bert for the friends) is a mean, lean, disease machine who 
casts Rot of the Plaguebringer every 60 seconds, an unresistible point blank AE with 200 range that does 500 dmg, mana drain and DoT, decreases Attack by 150 and increases Disease counter by 72.
Take advantage of the zone in/out pillar. If you are unable to sit to meditate, zone out and then back in, and sit near the bone chair until you’re ready to go down. This is also useful for excessive agro control, especially if you are a healer or slower. And the funny part is, I have found it sometimes to be possible to heal people in my group down below while I was recovering at the bone chair.
