The Restless Cabal
We advise you to use the following talents against The Restless Cabal.
- Level 15: Eye of the Tiger
- Level 25: No specific recommendation
- Level 30: Light Brewing
- Level 35: Tiger Tail Sweep or Ring of Peace
- Level 40: Bob and Weave (or Dampen Harm, situationally)

Tips
You should wait a couple of seconds before dragging Fa'thuul to Zaxasj (the boss tanked by a ranged player). If you ever take aggro on the ranged boss, you are almost certain to cause a wipe, so use threat meters and stop using Rushing Jade Wind if you get too close.
You should use cooldowns after activating the Void Stone relic, as you are
not able to be healed while the shield from 
Umbral Shell is on the boss.
Uu'nat, Harbinger of the Void
We advise you to use the following talents against Uu'nat, Harbinger of the Void.
- Level 15: Eye of the Tiger
- Level 25: No specific recommendation
- Level 30: Light Brewing
- Level 35: Summon Black Ox Statue or Ring of Peace (or Tiger Tail Sweep, situationally)
- Level 40: Bob and Weave (or Dampen Harm, situationally)
- Level 45: Rushing Jade Wind
- Level 50: High Tolerance
Tips
You should use cooldowns when moving through beams, and when multiple Undying Guardians are active in Phase 2 with the Hysteria buff.
Ring of Peace can be used to reposition Primordial Mindbenders. You
may choose to use the Black Ox Statue instead to aid in collecting the adds
spawned when a Mindbender dies.
