Helya is the final boss in Trial of Valor.

Adventure Guide[]

Though she once served as Odyn's right hand, the vengeful Helya will stop at nothing to ensure her ancient curse binds the titan keeper to the Halls of Valor. No longer satisfied with ruling her shadowy realm, Helya now commands her vast kvaldir army to plague the lands of the living.

Overview[]

Helya uses her supernatural powers to conjure orbs, taint foes, breathe sludge, and crush her enemies. Upon reaching 65% health, Helya departs beneath the sea, assaulting the raid from afar with her denizens of Helheim or ocean waves from the Maw of Souls. Defeating Helya's tentacles wounds her, causing her to return to the shore. Helya then orders the last stand of Helheim, invoking both the minions of Helheim and her supernatural powers until her defeat.

Damage Dealer Alert Damage Dealers[]

  • Maneuver Orb of Corruption and Orb of Corrosion away from raid members if targeted.
  • Avoid Bilewater Breath and Corrupted Breath, then defeat Bilewater Slimes or absorb Corrupted Axions.
  • Help mitigate Tentacle Strikes, as the damage divides amongst all target struck.
  • Defeat Night Watch Mariners before they reach full energy and cast Lantern of Darkness.

Healer Alert Healers[]

  • Players targeted by Orb of Corruption and Orb of Corrosion may move out of range, so plan accordingly.
  • Dispel Taint of the Sea.
  • Fetid Rot reduces the healing a target receives, declining in potency over time.
  • Tanks afflicted with Bilewater Redox or Dark Hatred may require coordinated use of damage-reduction abilities.

Tank Alert Tanks[]

  • Bilewater Breath and Corrupted Breath follows Helya's current tank target and will apply Bilewater Redox or Dark Hatred, respectively, to all targets within the breath.
  • A Grimelord's Anchor Slam reduces your defenses for a short duration.
  • Fury of the Maw waves can bring Grimelords and Night Watch Mariners into the battle.
  • Decaying Minions leave behind Decay when they die, which can be washed away by Fury of the Maw.
