Engineering Profession Needed for Uncommon Fyrakk? - Knock Belt Enchant

November 25, 2023 4 minutes

Greetings fellow adventurers! Today, we delve into the exciting world of Mythic raiding and the importance of control in Phase 2 of the formidable Fyrakk encounter. The top guilds have discovered a clever strategy involving the Engineering Profession and an enchantment called the Personal Space Amplifier to gain a significant advantage. Join us as we explore the intricacies of this strategy and understand why it has become a game-changer in the race for glory!

The Power of Belt Enchant: Personal Space Amplifier

Before we dive deeper into the specifics of the encounter, let's take a moment to understand the mechanics behind the Belt Enchant: Personal Space Amplifier. This enchantment, derived from the Battle for Azeroth expansion, can be applied to a belt by skilled Engineers. Once every 10 minutes, it allows the wearer to knockback enemies in close proximity. Originally used extensively in Mythic+ dungeons to manipulate mob positioning, this enchantment has found a new and crucial role in raid encounters, specifically the Mythic Fyrakk fight.

Mythic Fyrakk Phase 2

In order to comprehend why Liquid and Echo, two prominent guilds, are utilizing Belt Knocks in Phase 2 of the Mythic Fyrakk encounter, we must first understand the unique challenges posed by this boss. If you have tackled Fyrakk on Normal or Heroic difficulty levels, you are no stranger to his devastating Deep Breath ability, which spawns a long line of adds across the arena. However, on Mythic difficulty:

  1. The adds must not be allowed to finish their cast.
  2. All the adds boast significant health pools.
  3. The adds must not block the path of smaller adds.

These factors contribute to the guilds' desire to gather the adds into one tightly-packed group. However, some of the adds spawn at a considerable distance from the central area, presenting a logistical challenge. The adds are unable to move on their own, even in death, leaving us with the only viable option: employing knockbacks and grips. While certain classes possess knockback abilities within their utility toolkit, choosing to become an Engineer grants every raider access to the coveted knockback effect. Therefore, if you have aspirations of obtaining the Cutting Edge achievement this tier, it might be worth considering the Engineering Profession.

A History of Engineering's Impact in Mythic Raiding

Remarkably, this is not the first time the Engineering Profession has proven invaluable in the realm of Mythic raiding. On the Mythic Raszageth encounter, players were forcibly knocked to the side during the intermission phase, suffering damage in the process. However, resourceful adventurers discovered that the Momentum Redistributor Boots, an Engineering item from the Shadowlands expansion, could nullify this damage and redirect it towards the adds, turning a potential setback into an advantage.

It is fascinating to note that two out of three end-bosses for their respective expansions have required or greatly benefited from engineering prowess. The Momentum Redistributor Boots were eventually nerfed and rendered unusable in raid and dungeon content due to the Raszageth encounter. This raises the question of whether the Belt Enchant: Personal Space Amplifier will eventually suffer a similar fate. Only time will tell.
