Eranog
Tips
Two phases boss with some cleave and a single target burst requirement.
Shadowfury can be used to stun the adds after they spawn.
Demonic Circle can also be used to trivialize some movements and to
move outside of the ring of fire in phase 2.
Use Call Dreadstalkers,
Demonic Strength
and
Implosion to burst adds down while maintaining the focus on the boss.
For more information, please refer to our Eranog guide.
Terros
Tips
Single target encounter.
Warlock innate passive damage mitigation and abilities
like Dark Pact and
Unending Resolve can be used to great
effect during damage events such as
Rock Blast.
Make sure to have preplaced Demonic Gateway to assist with the
movement requirement of
Resonating Annihilation.
For more information, please refer to our Terros guide.
The Primal Council
Tips
Council fight with a single phase and four targets.
Dark Pact and/or
Unending Resolve can be used when
soaking

Touch the pool of fire once when you have 5 stacks of the debuff
during Primal Blizzard.
Sennarth, the Cold Breath
Tips
Two phases single target boss with frequent adds.
Demonic Circle can nullify both
Gossamer Burst
and
Repelling Burst when timed correctly.

burst
Suffocating Webs in phase 2.
For more information, please refer to our Sennarth guide.
Dathea, Ascended
Tips

Demonic Circle can trivialise
Cyclone mechanic.
Dark Pact and eventually
Unending Resolve can
mitigate
Conductive Mark damage.

Kurog Grimtotem
Tips
Two phases single target encounter with occasional adds.
Use Dark Pact and
Unending Resolve to
mitigate
Absolute Zero if required.
Pool resources for when the boss will hit phase 2 at 66% and 33% of HP when 2 elementals will spawn and need to be burned down as quickly as possible.
For more information, please refer to our Kurog Grimtotem guide.
Broodkeeper Diurna
Tips
Single phase encounter with few adds present for most of the encounter.
Dark Pact and
Unending Resolve can mitigate the damage
of
Greatstaff of the Broodkeeper or
Clutchwatcher's Rage
when cracking open multiple eggs.
Icy Shroud movement penalty can be bypassed by
both
Burning Rush and
Demonic Circle particularly when used
with
Soulburn.
Mortal Coil can be used to help lower the
healing absorption.
For more information, please refer to our Broodkeeper Diurna guide.
Raszageth the Storm-Eater
Tips
Three-phase single target boss with some adds during the two Intermissions.
Demonic Circle can solve a lot of movement requirements in the fight,
such as
Hurricane Wing and
Static Charge.
While cooldown management can vary between different groups due to total
raid DPS, it is important to pool resources for Focused Charge at
the beginning of phase 2.
Cycling defensive cooldowns will help alleviate the pressure on healers, so
make good use of Dark Pact,
Unending Resolve and consider
even spending a
Soulburn on
Healthstone
or
Drain Life in a dire situation.
Proactively placing a Demonic Gateway can
trivialise
Magnetic Charge in the last phase, especially during
dangerous overlaps with
Lightning Breath.
For more information, please refer to our Raszageth guide.
