About our Reviewer

This guide has been reviewed and approved by Pottm from Serenity.

In Mythic mode, Overwhelm causes the afflicted tank to take 250% increased damage (per stack) from Rend Flesh.

In addition, after each time Ursoc casts his two successive Roaring Cacophony, one Nightmare Image will animate. This add does nothing except melee its tank until the next casts of Roaring Cacophony. If the add is still alive at this time, it fears everyone nearby, effectively wiping the raid.

The changes do not significantly impact the fight. The strategy is the same as in Heroic mode. Tanks just need to handle Rend Flesh and Overwhelm properly, as explained in detail in the Strategy page. The rest of the raid needs to make sure that the Nightmare Image dies before the next cast of Roaring Cacophony.
