Before this boss encounter, the raid leader should seperate the 2 groups so that each group contains 1 tank, 1 healer, and 3 dps. One group will be assigned to Edyis Darkbane, while the other will be assigned to Fjola Lightbane. Once the fight begins, four clickable portals will spawn around the room (2 light, and 2 dark). All members assigned to Darkbane should click the light portal so they have the buff Light Essence and vice versa for those attacking Lightbane.
Periodically throughout the fight, serveral small light and dark orbs will appear at the edges of the room and being to float around. Raid members should collect the ones that are the same color, and avoid the opposite color of their current buff (hitting an opposite color will cause 4-7k damage). About every 45 seconds, one of the two Val'kyr will use one of the two random speical abilities. Twin Pact will restore a very large amount of HP to both if successfully cast. It can be interupted, but in order to do this you must break through the damage shield that will be put up beforehand. All ranged DPS who isn't currently attacking that twin should change their essence and switch targets until the shield is broken. Once the shield is down, they should move back to their assigned target. The second special ability will be either a Light or Dark vortex, depending on which twin is casting it. This is a raid-wide AoE that deals several pulses of DPS. All raid members should switch to the same essence in order to absorb the damage.
One last note, the twins have a mirrored health pool, any damage done to one will be taken by both. In addition, shadow resistance and fire resistance will help during this encounter.
