A very difficult part of the fight. The squad will naturally tend to separate and spread out due to Gluttony and Malice, meaning the healers will struggle to keep everyone alive during one of the most stressful series of mechanics.
As soon as Malice tethers spawn, the Chronomancer opens their Portal on the boss. Targeted players should wait until they are full health after the smash at ~32s, then take the portal. Drop the adds on the portal exit.
Once Despair spreads spawn, everyone takes the portal and prepares to dodge. The majority of the squad should stack on top of the exit while the healers move behind. Virtuosos should use their Thousand Cuts now while targeting the boss to cleave the adds.
Any players who go down after Despair and aren’t immediately revived should /gg.
It is important that players targeted by Malice wait until after the smash to take the portal. This will give the healers time to bring them to full health, otherwise they will likely downstate on the smash right after Despair spreads spawn.
Virtuosos targeted by Malice should try to Block the tethers to reduce incoming damage, since they will be far from their healers when they complete.
If you are missing some damage, it is best to move to after Envy, so you can cleave the adds. If they walk in, the squad will die very quickly.
