Bannpfeile drops 2 pools of purple void zones on each platform. If a player walks over the void zone, they'll get a debuff and remove the void zone. The debuff can be dispelled, and when it's dispelled the void zone will fall to the ground underneath the player.

Zorn der Banshee deals raid-wide damage, but for every stack of Bannpfeile on players when this goes off, a massive amount of bonus raid damage will be done. This means that by this point no debuffs can be on players and they should all be on the ground.

Einreißen destroys the current platform that Sylvanas is on, removing the jump pads and dealing a large amount of damage to anyone who remains. As the jump pads are gone and players can't go to the middle platform, any player who is too slow to leave the platform will essentially be dead.
