Tips

  • This fight has multiple adds and bosses so you want to make sure you apply Virulent Plague Icon Virulent Plague to all targets.
  • If the other boss or adds are close to your main target, you want to cast Death and Decay Icon Death and Decay to maximize your cleave.
  • Be careful of your cleave when there are players afflicted by Cerebral Assault Icon Cerebral Assault to stop yourself dealing too much damage.

Due to the continuous 3 target cleave this fight offers, using Epidemic Icon Epidemic over Death Coil Icon Death Coil is recommended when 3 targets are stacked up. This happens when there is a Visage from Beyond stacked on the 2 bosses.

Uu'nat, Harbinger of the Void
