Beast Mastery Hunter DPS Vault of the Incarnates Raid Guide — Dragonflight 10.1

Below, you can find class and spec-specific advice for every fight in Vault of the Incarnates. If you are looking for a general overview of the Raid that is not spec-specific, check out our dedicated Vault of the Incarnates guides.

On this page, you will find Beast Mastery Hunter specific information to deal with each boss in the Vault of the Incarnates raid. These are not complete encounter guides, but rather provide specific tips for doing the bosses as a Beast Mastery Hunter.

This page assumes that you already understand most of the mechanics of each encounter. These can be found on the full raid guide, so what is contained here are details specifically tailored toward Beast Mastery Hunter and what you can do to deal with each fight as best as possible.

All recommendations are progression based tips and will not necessarily be the best for an overall DPS ranking.

The build above is your generic single target talent tree. Each boss below will note if it uses this build or a different one if anything should be tweaked. Running the same talent build for every single boss is not optimal.

For Eranog, we swap to our AoE build to give us the ability to cleave the regularly spawning adds.

• >B0PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA4ACaJAIEAAAAAAAAAAAaEKSolEJkIRSoJEhkQSSEakEB

• Binding Shot can be used on the adds to keep them in place.

For more information, please refer to our Eranog guide.

For this boss I suggest you use the default build at the top of this page.

With this being a 4-target encounter, we recommend you swap to the AoE build below.

• >B0PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA4ACaJAIEAAAAAAAAAAAaEKSolEJkIRSoJEhkQSSEakEB

Each boss must die within a few seconds of the others, else risking a complete wipe. You will naturally do more damage to your current target, so be sure to target swap to the highest health boss.

On this boss, your choice of build is highly dependent on the tanking situation. There are a lot of small adds on which maximizing DPS does not matter, while there are big adds that demand all your attention. However, these adds can be cleaved with the boss depending on the position. If they can, choose the AoE build below. If not, stick to the default single-target build:

• Single Target — B0PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA4AgWSAIEAAAAAAAAAAAaEHoIhmEJkIRCaSkWIJkIkoRSE
• AoE/Cleave Build — >B0PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA4ACaJAIEAAAAAAAAAAAaEKSolEJkIRSoJEhkQSSEakEB

The big spider is going to be more biggest priority, make sure to focus this as soon as it spawns.

• Disengage can be used to negate the pull-in that the boss does.
• Posthaste allows you to clear the slow stacks of webbing via Disengage.

For this boss you should tweak your build based on if you are going to the platforms during the intermission phase or not. If you are NOT going to the platform you should stick with the above default Single Target talents. While there is an add that you need to kill it dies quickly and is not worth changing your build over. If you ARE going over to the platform (you have to on Mythic) then consider taking the build that has more platform damage.

• Single Target — B0PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA4AgWSAIEAAAAAAAAAAAaEHoIhmEJkIRCaSkWIJkIkoRSE
• AoE/Cleave Build — >B0PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA4ACaJAIEAAAAAAAAAAAaEKSolEJkIRSoJEhkQSSEakEB

• There are no specific tips for this encounter yet.

For more information, please refer to our Dathea, Ascended guide.

• The best build for killing the boss will usually be the full single-target build at the top of this page.
• For pure top DPS, run with the AoE build below. If you do not feel comfortable multi-dotting Barbed Shot perfectly, take the Sharp Barbs and Dire Beast points, and put them all into Dire Command.

• B0PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA4ACaJAIEAAAAAAAAAAAaEKSokEJkIRSoJEJSCRSkoRSE

• During the intermission the boss is immune but you can continue to auto-attack the boss to maintain Frenzy on your pet with regularly spaced out Barbed Shots.

For more information, please refer to our Kurog Grimtotem guide.

Adds are a huge part of this fight, and we spec for AoE accordingly.

• AoE/Cleave Build — >B0PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA4ACaJAIEAAAAAAAAAAAaEKSolEJkIRSoJEhkQSSEakEB

The adds and the boss will be spaced far apart, and you might consider using a Cunning pet, specifically an Aqiri, because they are 30% faster and will lose far less DPS moving from the boss to the adds and vice versa. This has slight negative survivability implications, so choose wisely.

• Cast Tranquilizing Shot to dispel the Cauterizing Flashflame HoT from the Dragonspawn Flamebender.

For more information, please refer to our Broodkeeper Diurna guide.

• If you do not need additional AoE, we highly recommend the full single-target build from the top of this page.
• AoE/Cleave Build — >B0PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA4ACaJAIEAAAAAAAAAAAaEKSolEJkIRSoJEhkQSSEakEB

On Mythic, we recommend the following strategy for surviving the Hurricane Wing knockbacks in Phase 1:

1. Disengage. Use Aspect of the Cheetah optionally only if an Evoker uses Time Spiral on the third.
2. Gateway
3. Use Aspect of the Cheetah to run against the wind, then use Disengage to return.
4. Aspect of the Turtle
5. Gateway

Note: If you are only doing 4 knockbacks due to your Guild's Strategy, swap steps 2 and 3 around.
