This should be blocked and the resulting DoT effect cleansed.
Cinder Cleave - The Annihilator targets a random party member with a very long conal attack, sending out a fire wave from his sword along the path. The slash itself needs to be dodged by the off tank. He charges up and performs a spinning slash that deals heavy damage and subsequently drops meteors on 2 random players which deal immense damage and need to be blocked. Sunburst - This is the Annihilator's heavy attack. Light Attack - Standard sword slashes that deal moderate damage. Enrage - The boss will enrage if he comes within a certain radius of one of the Havocrel Annihilator mini bosses, significantly raising the damage done both enemies for all of their attacks. The miniboss will have its own mechanics detailed below. The final AoE will be much larger and will have a longer arming time after which, the Annihilator plunges downwards with his sword.
This is telegraphed by the boss roaring at the sky for several seconds followed by fireball AoEs raining down on players which should be avoided.
Havocrel Annihilator - At roughly 90%, 75%, 50% and 35% Health thresholds, Oaxiltso will summon a Havocrel Annihilator miniboss to assist him. These frogs deal damage from range and can be dangerous if ignored as multiple will spawn at once and it won't take long for a whole bunch to fill up the room. Death Hopper frogs will periodically spawn near the Cleansing Pools in the 4 corners of the room. Blistering Smash - The boss charges up a double-handed ground smash that leaves a large AoE on the ground around his target, dealing damage-over-time and persisting for a few seconds. These projectiles deal heavy damage if not mitigated. Each stomp releases fiery projectiles on impact that move outward in a starburst pattern. Molten Earth - Oaxiltso performs three stomps in succession, the first two with a single leg and then the last one by jumping up and landing with both feet. Hard Mode Modifier - From 50% Health and below, Oaxiltso will charge twice in succession, choosing the furthest target from him and then the furthest target relative to his new position after the first charge. This move is used roughly every 40-45 seconds. Any players caught in the path will be dealt massive damage and knocked down. This move can and should be dodged. Savage Blitz - Oaxiltso focuses on the furthest player from him and dashes towards them after a short charge time. This move is used roughly every 35 seconds. These players need to take a dip in one of the four pools to cleanse the debuff. Noxious Sludge - Oaxiltso drenches two players with Noxious Sludge which causes them to drop small poison pools every second, dealing heavy damage to anyone standing in the AoE. Ravenous Chomp - Oaxiltso takes a bite out of his target dealing heavy damage. He will usually perform 2-3 in succession. Light Attack - The boss performs a standard claw swipe that deals moderate damage. Oaxiltso is also supported by Havocrel Annihilator adds that have massive health pools and serve more like mini-bosses rather than simple adds. He uses predominantly fire and poison attacks and employs a cleanse mechanic via the four pools in the corners of his chamber. Oaxiltso is a large Argonian Behemoth who serves as the first boss of Rockgrove. SWORDIGO WALKTHROUGH CORRUPTED GROVE TRIAL
