Talent and Essence Cheatsheet
Abyssal Commander Sivara
We advise you to use the following essences against Abyssal Commander Sivara.
- Major Slot
- The Ever-Rising Tide — Rank 3: Overcharge Mana + The Ever-Rising Tide
- Minor Slots
- Memory of Lucid Dreams — Rank 3: Lucid Dreams
- The Well of Existence — Rank 3: The Well of Existence
Damage Patterns and Ramp Timings
Damage Pattern Type - Variable
Major Damage Sources - Toxic Brand/ Frost Mark and Unstable Mixture
Overwhelming Barrage, occurring every 40 seconds, could be a possible ramp location, which lines up very well with The Ever-Rising Tide, Power Word: Radiance, and Halo. In general, aim to ramp for any period of the fight where a significant amount of Unstable Mixture will be triggered.
For more information, please refer to our Abyssal Commander Sivara strategy guide.
Blackwater Behemoth
We advise you to use the following essences against Blackwater Behemoth.
- Major Slot
- The Ever-Rising Tide — Rank 3: Overcharge Mana + The Ever-Rising Tide
- Minor Slots
- Memory of Lucid Dreams — Rank 3: Lucid Dreams
- The Well of Existence — Rank 3: The Well of Existence
Damage Patterns and Ramp Timings
Damage Pattern Type - Scripted
Major Damage Sources - Toxic Spine and Shock Pulse
Ensure you can ramp for the second Shock Pulse of each platform, as that Shock Pulse overlaps with Toxic Spine being out. Use Power Word: Radiance charges to help cover the players affected by Toxic Spine outside of that overlap. With the Toxic Spine debuff lasting 10 seconds, try to Radiance after the debuff has gone out and lowered their health, so you can abuse Radiance's smart application of Atonement.
For more information, please refer to our Blackwater Behemoth strategy guide.
Radiance of Azshara
We advise you to use the following essences against Radiance of Azshara.
- Major Slot
- The Ever-Rising Tide — Rank 3: Overcharge Mana + The Ever-Rising Tide
- Minor Slots
- Memory of Lucid Dreams — Rank 3: Lucid Dreams
- The Well of Existence — Rank 3: The Well of Existence
Damage Patterns and Ramp Timings
Damage Pattern Type - Scripted/Burst
Major Damage Sources - Unshackled Power
Unshackled Power is cast every 18 seconds during Phase 1 of the encounter. Aim for one use of Evangelism and one use of Rapture per phase and ramp for as many other casts as possible, Mana and Power Word: Radiance charges permitting. During Phase 2 of the encounter, you can potentially ramp for the Gale Buffet casts.
For more information, please refer to our Radiance of Azshara strategy guide.
Lady Ashvane
We advise you to use the following essences against Lady Ashvane.
- Major Slot
- The Ever-Rising Tide — Rank 3: Overcharge Mana + The Ever-Rising Tide
- Minor Slots
- Memory of Lucid Dreams — Rank 3: Lucid Dreams
- The Well of Existence — Rank 3: The Well of Existence
Damage Patterns and Ramp Timings
Damage Pattern Type - Scripted/Burst
Major Damage Sources - Rippling Wave
Rippling Wave is cast approximately 20 seconds into Phase 1 and then roughly every 30 seconds after that until she is pushed into Phase 2. The Ever-Rising Tide should be available for every cast. Maintain Atonement on players with the Waterlogged debuff, mana permitting. Little healing should be required in Phase 2. Try to conserve as much as possible for the next Phase 1.
For more information, please refer to our Lady Ashvane strategy guide.
Orgozoa
We advise you to use the following essences against Orgozoa.
- Major Slot
- The Ever-Rising Tide — Rank 3: Overcharge Mana + The Ever-Rising Tide
- Minor Slots
- Memory of Lucid Dreams — Rank 3: Lucid Dreams
- The Well of Existence — Rank 3: The Well of Existence
Damage Patterns and Ramp Timings
Damage Pattern Type - Scripted/Constant
Major Damage Sources - Incubation Fluid
Incubation Fluid will cause the damage taken in each phase to slowly ramp up in intensity the longer you are in the phase. We will want to focus most of our healing towards the end of each phase, when a large number of players have the debuff. Desensitizing Sting causes the boss to do less damage to the tank the longer they hold aggro. Due to the tank having no stacks of this when they first gain aggro, ensure they do not die immediately before this gets a chance to stack.
For more information, please refer to our Orgozoa strategy guide.
The Queen's Court
We advise you to use the following essences against The Queen's Court.
- Major Slot
- The Ever-Rising Tide — Rank 3: Overcharge Mana + The Ever-Rising Tide
- Minor Slots
- Memory of Lucid Dreams — Rank 3: Lucid Dreams
- The Well of Existence — Rank 3: The Well of Existence
Damage Patterns and Ramp Timings
Damage Pattern Type - Scripted/Burst
Major Damage Sources - Potent Spark and Form Ranks
Ramp for as many of the Potent Spark explosions or Form Ranks AoE, prioritizing overlaps of the two mechanics. For dealing with the Repeat Performance mechanic, if you need to cover large healing with your cooldowns during this mechanic, try to alternate between Power Word: Shield and Shadow Mend for ramps, as well as placing a cast between your Power Word: Radiance. For the burst portion of your cooldowns, try to place a single smite cast between your other spells. For example, Schism -> Smite -> Power Word: Solace -> Smite -> Penance -> Smite.
For more information, please refer to our The Queen's Court strategy guide.
Za'qul, Harbinger of Ny'alotha
We advise you to use the following essences against Za'qul, Harbinger of Ny'alotha.
- Major Slot
- The Ever-Rising Tide — Rank 3: Overcharge Mana + The Ever-Rising Tide
- Minor Slots
- Memory of Lucid Dreams — Rank 3: Lucid Dreams
- The Well of Existence — Rank 3: The Well of Existence
Damage Patterns and Ramp Timings
Damage Pattern Type - Scripted/Burst/Constant
Major Damage Sources - Dread and Hysteria
Ramp for as many Dread sets as possible, as it will be the primary source of dangerous damage throughout the fight. During periods of high stacks of Hysteria, depending on the strategy used, you can also potentially use cooldowns there.
For more information, please refer to our Za'qul, Harbinger of Ny'alotha strategy guide.
Queen Azshara
We advise you to use the following essences against Queen Azshara.
- Major Slot
- The Ever-Rising Tide — Rank 3: Overcharge Mana + The Ever-Rising Tide
- Minor Slots
- Memory of Lucid Dreams — Rank 3: Lucid Dreams
- The Well of Existence — Rank 3: The Well of Existence
Damage Patterns and Ramp Timings
Damage Pattern Type - Variable/Burst
Major Damage Sources - Arcane Mastery and Overload
The vast majority of the damage taken by the raid during this encounter will be random damage on the raid via Azshara's Arcane Mastery. In Phase 4, when the console is activated, Overload is triggered, causing raid wide AoE damage. Ensure you have cooldowns prepared for this. Be prepared to focus any player that receives the System Shock debuff as a result of activating a console.
For more information, please refer to our Queen Azshara strategy guide.
