While the Avatar is in Ladrys' form, adds called "inner darkness" spawn. These take the form of a player and attack, hitting for a max ~9,000. They have an emote:
The inner darkness is becoming very unstable.
Shortly after that emote, they explode (despawn), casting the AE "Inner Darkness" in the process:
Inner Darkness: PB AE 30', Magic (-900)
1: Blindness (1)
2: Decrease HP when cast by 43300

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Defeat the Shadow of Decay Phase 2

Don't use any cures or anything that has a cure component. The DOTs and illusion must stay on everyone in order to keep the Shadow from regenerating. He'll check for this requirement every 6 seconds, so it must be kept on you at all times.
If enought people don't have the DOT/illusion on them, the Shadow will regenerate 25% per tick.

Vision of Splendor calls to all those before it, 'Impure souls, tainted with magic, are no challenge for me!'

Purification: Single Target, Disease (-900)
1: 60% Chance to trigger: Ruin Magic (a dispell)
2: Silence (1 tick)
Once the Vision emotes, one group needs to click off all their buffs and remain that way until it's dead. Note: Auras and songs count as well. Best to do this before porting up. If a buff lands on you and you click it off fast enough he will not regen Rez effects do not count as a buff.
If a full group is not debuffed, the Vision regenerates 25% per tick. Only one person needs to go buffless for this fight.
Defeat the Shadow of Decay Phase 4
During this encounter, the Shadow of Decay casts "Wave of Filth":
Wave of Filth: Single Target, Disease (-900)
1: Amnesia (Silence vs Melee Effect) (1 tick)
2: Decrease HP when cast by 27700
As the fight goes on, three random people (other than the tank) will get an emote. That person must jump out a window. (Note: Levitation effects greatly slow your jump speed, so click them off before initiating this portion of the event.)
Everyone Sees: some among you must throw yourselves from the tower as a sacrifice to Sholoth!
Target Sees: Jump from this tower as the ultimate sacrifice to Sholoth!
On a Successful Jump: You have made the proper sacrifice.
On a Failed Jump (Shadow regens 25%): Shadow of Decay shouts, '_____ failed to make the sacrifice!'
NOTE: Only the player with the emote should make the jump. If you have the emote and jump, you'll be ported back into the room. If you don't have the emote, you'll simply fall to your death.
Defeat the Vision of Splendor 0/1 Phase 4

Defeat the Shadow of Decay 0/1 Phase 6
Shadow of Decay calls to all within its reach, 'Sing your chants of decay! Fill your minds and bodies with disease, or suffer my wrath!'
During this fight, black oozes spawn on random people. These have a damage aura (the same ones that spawn with the Avatar of Sholoth). The Shadow of Decay, itself, doesn't have any AEs here.
Shortly after engaging, a random person will be given a book, "Book of Chants" (you'll see an emote indicating who receives it).

This effect may impact your ability to click the book. You can pass it, but you won't get rebuffed with "Chant of Decay" (which you need on you in order to prevent the NPC from regenerating).
If you get "Strained Voice" on you, wait until it fades and then quickly pass the book along before the named takes notice.
