Mythic Eonar in Antorus burning throne is usually difficult with tight timing and random pop ups that can cause you to fail and die. Which is ridiculous because the rest of the raids bosses die in a couple of hit.
Well Blizzard must have done something because after you die the first time the boss has a 99% damage reduction on her which makes it impossible to fail on the second attempt. Just kill adds until the event is over. EDIT: for me I have to go up to the ship once or I can still die.
So for mount and mog farmers this is totally doable now just start the event, die to whatever and then do the second attempt with no need to rush or do anything fancy. I did this, went on to the rest of the raid and got the mount my first attempt.

You’re doing too much. You can just skip the ship and just kill adds. The big boom attack doesn’t do anything now and honestly I have skipped the ship twice now

Assuming you mean on the second go because I definately die on the first go no matter what I do
So does this mean the most efficient way would be starting it, jumping off the ledge and then just doing it the second time basically afk?
I have the skip so I haven’t done her in a long time but I my need things for transmog
you still gotta kill things, dont think afk will ever end 
and not sure the method of death is important

Oh thank god. I’ll have to do M Antorus tonight now.
Tried to complete it last week and still couldn’t. Died every time. The fight is still too complicated.

You have to force her to “purge” the enemies. That’s what damages the ship. If you kill too many adds, she will not purge enough times, and the encounter will fail.
If you don’t kill enough, she will die and the encounter will fail.
Just kill the big robots and keep her from dying due to adds to proc the purge.

Also if you read a basic guide, that extra 2 minutes will make it so you never lose again. It’s pretty easy if you follow the pattern correctly.
You don’t have have to die. Even the first attempt is extremely easy now.
Then you’re probably doing it wrong. Just killed adds on two different spots, jumped on the ship and then the fight was over.
The ship one shots her on mythic if you don’t do the mechanic. However, they made it so she’s immune to damage while you are on it if you are solo.
You only need to do the first one. You can kill enough adds to finish the fight before the second one shot mechanic goes off.

I kill the three big guys (1st at entrance door, 2nd at high door opposite entrance, 3rd at low door opposite ship / encounter start area) and go to ship once (after first purge), but otherwise just hang out at tree killing trash.
I haven’t failed it once doing it this way (and the timing feels much loser than before so not like I have to use some speed class with a speed set or anything).
My last 3 runs (2 Hunter & 1 DH) on mythic I never had to leave her platform. You die the first attempt and then just stand next to her and wait for enemies to get close enough to kill so she does her purge.
I’m glad it’s easier.
Good luck, everyone!
I just tried her for first time ever solo and while I died to her within the first few minutes the first time, She only took like 3% damage the 2nd time and that’s just me running around killing the NPCs for a bit till I eventually won. Did not touch the ships.

It’s not that it’s “difficult” per se. But if you never did this when it was current content, you have absolutely no idea what’s going on. Eonar will just randomly die even though you see no mobs around her and you have absolutely no idea why.
The assumed knowledge of this encounter is what makes it frustrating.
Thanks for the explanation. From my side, I was just dying and I had no idea why. I only found out on this thread after the first attempt she has a 99% damage reduction. The messages aren’t really that helpful. You should know what kill you (or her, technically).
This is the part that confused me for a while - I kept interpreting her callouts as meaning I needed to go to ship a second time, but doing that would just kill me in couple of seconds.
After the first visit I had to just patiently wait with her and let the mobs accumulate. It was not intuitive (at least for me)

I’m still randomly dying. Took two attempts on my priest, first one before the damage reduction, second time after and it was over. Today on my mage, I’ve died 5 times with no indication as to why. The fight never progresses to the flying mobs. Eonar is at 95% then we both die.
Even in its simplified form, they should just make her an optional boss. They obviously can’t get the mechanics fixed, even after it’s been legacy for years now.
Seems you DO have to port to the ship once, at least I had to today.
Did the fight for the first time in literal years (failed on my last try, whenever that was).
I did not remember a thing.
Died the first time to big add spamming long range blasts on Eonar.
Then I just killed the big Demolisher adds ASAP, and gg. No ship at all.
