Great stuff. So I checked some timers to work out game mechanics
Phase 1: Valindra Health 100-80% single target DPS boss
Interlude 1: Radial Lightning with 5 ghosts- survive for 30 seconds
Phase 2: Valindra Health 80-20%
Valindra will give audio cues for 3 actions: claw 1 random party member twice ("You are going nowhere!"), then summon 5 caskets ("Rise my minions!"). She will continue to claw/summon independently on different timers. Clawed party member needs to be freed by DPSing phantom claw (some reported maelstrom of chaos can instakill claw). She will also randomly choke hold (~2s) and throw one person once in a while ("You are pitful").
Casket timers:
60 s between first and 2nd casket summon, then 45s between each subsequent casket summon
Claw timers:
45 s between first 3 claws, then 40s between each subesquent claw
When she is below 50% health no. of caskets increased to 8.
All wights and claws will despawn as soon as Valindra goes <20% health.
Interlude 2: radial lightning with 8 ghosts, survive for 70 s.
Phase 3: Valindra Health 20% to 0%
12-15 caskets spawn, opened after about 12s. If wights are kept alive no additional caskets are spawned.
DPS Valindra before she kills you!
General tips:
Assign each member evenly around perimeter of room in a pentagram. When she's about to summon (after first 2 claws) scatter and get near your position. Move clockwise for multiple caskets. You have just enough time to interact with 2 if you're close to the first one. GF probably want to threatening rush/lunging strike to it.
During interludes everyone should run in one direction (clockwise) and kite ghosts.
Even a lesser soulforged is invaluable in the fight, as you can take a claw/lightning and live.
Potion like mad, if you can afford it buy a greater stone of health and use it
Manage your artifact timers wisely.
Have very high DPS and survivability
Focus on wights in phase 2 before boss
Kite/control wights in phase 3 while DPSing Valindra

Wow, thanks for the detailed write-up. I hope this was just a copy-paste otherwise this might be worth posting separately as a mini-guide.
Wrong. Fight requires high survivability and damage. Practically built for GWFs and TRs. Glass cannon or even average survival CW's will do very badly, if not cause the fight to be impossible for the group in this dungeon if they die prior to the dps race at the end.
This is particularly the case due to:
This is a very strong tip:
Thanks, meangean88.
NOTE. This fight will make good use of defensive artifacts, depending on build and class, though it is better to get the defensiveness from build, letting you use an offensive primary artifact due to the dps requirement.
"Pitiful" :P
Very wrong as fondlez said.
Today was my 6th kill of this lame boss and I have to equip PvP def/deflect/HP rings and Shield/Mastery for safety. 4 of these fights I died before the end. Overall I can barely DPS efficiently and have to blink all the time and just feel quite useless and I'm sure my role ends when trash dies, I'm just extremely inefficient at the last boss compared to other fights.
Don't bring more than 1 CW for VT. There's no point.
I don't see myself buying keys for my CW or TR anywhere in the near future. This is the top dungeon in the game and we got 2 blue loots? Even the Cloak Tower has better rewards.
Is this only me or does anyone else have an image of a woman that drunk too much vodka in the mind when Valindra screams "Rise my minions"?
WTB Class Reroll please
lol , so do i

Ignore the caskets.. And dps valindra ASAP... It's tough but with good dps should get there in time
yeap...+1 on that
A proud member of "mythical horde of DPS GFs"
1). Is SW more dps or tank based?
2). Yes. I am panzer!
3). Get ACT if you want to celebrate your epeen.
4). Horniness will not stand between me and what I believe - "MM"
DC has a free role, because it can happen that a hand entangles you so you cant click it, so its good to have backup.
Other then that its just dps. Its also good to have people save their dailys for the hands, because as i said, they can come in a bad time.
If you get an add or two right before 20% there is no point killing them, since they dissapear when 3rd phase starts. So you have to valuate if you can survive long enough to ignore them or kill them.
On 3rd phase, its best to click as much caskets ad you can, 3-4 caskets each player is not impossble during this phase since they are much closer to eachother. And just nuke the boss down after that, she should be dead before new caskets spawn.
This is bad advice. I have seen the videos and its a mess doing it this way.
The best way for phase 3 is to
First (get ready to kill the hand that appears)
Second, everyone move to their designated section of the room. and click caskets, you should have no problem getting all (maybe miss 1-2). Go on boss again,
Third: Before caskets appear move to positions and do the same. After that you should have killed her without having to run around like crazy, and zerkers in your face. Boss should be dead before a 3rd casket spawned
Did this with 2x CW, GWF, GF, DC.and we assigned the DC to a section of the room too (between the CWs)
Any 4 dps classes can do this, you just need to be able to keep your HP up to survive the force choke after 50%. GF is prob the least useful because they move slower and lower dps. But! If you do have a GF they can use knight's valor which keeps the squisher ones alive.
and also the featured satirical comedic adventure "A Call for Heroes".
Nah man, there are just many lucky players around these days
What can you do? Luck is luck.
