Baron Geddon and Golemagg Raid Guide

Updated: December 2024

STRATEGY

Note: This is probably the hardest boss in Molten Core currently. If you have a Wildcard slot unlocked for Rend, use the Execute version of the deck (second tab on the build) - it will make it much easier to defend against the pushes at each intermission.

• The high-level strategy is that you want to capture towers so you can control the economy and coordinate timed assaults against Geddon.
• You will want to take this fight slow, capturing most of the objectives and economy as you push him one phase at a time. This is because at the start of each phase, Geddon will summon an army to assault your base. The key to this encounter is ensuring that you have captured 2-3 Towers before pushing into each new phase. It will make it so much easier to deal with the assault at each intermission.
• Gargoyle is very powerful in this encounter, especially when paired with Faerie Dragon to provide it with resist. When you want to push Geddon, send in a Gargoyle with Resist. Rend can also soak quite a lot of hits.
• When you are past Phase 1, keep an eye on where the Lava Tornados are moving. Avoid them and be efficient with your placements. Capture gold mines with your Dark Iron Miner whenever it's safe to do so.
• Use Quilboar to distract enemy pushes and Banshee to possess big targets like Gargoyle.
• I also cannot stress enough how much easier this encounter is when you are maximising the value from your 2x Dark Iron Miners to control the economy. There are 4x nodes on this map, never let them be sitting at 3x gold ores.
