The Orbs before being moved

The Orbs of Stone are eight large rock spheres emitting a red-colored energy, found in the Frostspike Caverns section of Scalecaller Peak. During the battle with Doylemish Ironheart, they will be moved and will target group members. If they are not destroyed, they will petrify players.

Skills and Abilities[edit]

The Orbs of Stone are priority targets. As Doylemish's health falls, more orbs will enter the arena from atop the surrounding pillars. The group should burn them down whenever they appear unless you are all confident in your ability to burn Doylemish down before anyone can be petrified. It is possible to kite the orbs to an extent, but those with less experience in Scalecaller Peak should not attempt to rely on their kiting skills to stay alive in an arena full of active orbs.

Stony Gaze
If you get too close to an orb, it tethers itself to you with a red beam, dealing increasing magic damage over time and snaring you. The orb will follow you as long as you are connected to it: the connection can be broken by putting enough distance between you and the orb. If you allow it to remain tethered for too long, you'll become Petrified.
Petrified
The target is encased in stone and rendered immobile. If this happens, someone in the group must run up to the petrified individual and use the synergy to break them free: if left in stone for more than 8 seconds, the boss will turn towards them and perform an instant kill.
