Explore Castle MistmooreThe encounter
Castellan Veyr commands the Courtyard and Battlements. His crimson brand picks a raider and follows that player, making controlled separation the central mechanic.
Know your role
Tanks
- Keep Veyr near his home with space for the branded raider to move away.
- If you receive the brand, separate from the raid without dragging the fight beyond its boundary.
Healers
- Keep the branded raider in healing range while staying more than 25 paces away.
- Prepare to heal the marked player after the blast; moving away protects nearby allies, not the brand's bearer.
Damage dealers
- If marked, move away from the raid immediately. The blast follows your position.
- Keep more than 25 paces from the marked player and move pets out of the blast.
Encounter progression

Throughout combat
Break the Keep Seal
A crimson brand warning repeats every 22 seconds. A random eligible raider is marked; the blast resolves six seconds later around that player's position.
Abilities & mechanics
Open a mechanic for details and any linked spells.
Crimson Brand Give the marked raider more than 25 paces of space.
The chosen player receives a private warning in addition to the raid announcement. After six seconds, the brand erupts around that player's current location.
The blast can hit the marked raider, nearby raiders and pets. Crossing the combat boundary does not leave the brand behind.
Field notes
Stay in the battle
Fight near the boss's home. Raiders and their pets must remain within 180 paces of the boss and within 30 paces vertically; attacks and aid from outside that boundary are rejected.
If no eligible living raider remains in the arena, or the boss is pulled too far from home, a warning precedes an encounter reset. Keep healers and resurrection targets inside the battle.
Read the warnings
Mechanic warnings appear in the Event Messages chat filter. Movement mechanics give six seconds to respond.
Ground markers can supplement the warning when supported and enabled. Follow the chat instruction even if a marker is absent.
Seasonal victory
A confirmed seasonal kill announces the guild or character victory, identifying the regular or Bloodbound covenant. Pet kills credit their player owner. In-game announcements use the Event Messages chat filter.
