Fire Mage DPS Vault of the Incarnates Raid Guide — Dragonflight 10.2.7

In this section, you will find information and guidance for each boss individually in Vault of the Incarnates as a Fire Mage. These are not complete encounter guides but provide specific tips for any Fire Mage on each boss.

Below, we list most bosses' "base" talent setup. However, we will also list a boss-specific talent tree for each boss if it differs from the base tree below.

Keep in mind that many of the Mage tree talents are personal preference, so we highly suggest you read the talent page for a more detailed overview of the different choices available to you.

You can easily import the talent tree below into the game with the "Copy Export String" button.

We suggest using Shimmer instead of Ice Floes on this fight. Other than that, we suggest the standard talents.

Use Shimmer to quickly get out of Molten Cleave without interrupting any casts.

Keep an eye on your boss mod timer for Flamerift. When Flamerift is about to come up, ensure you have a couple of Phoenix Flames charges ready to burst down the adds quickly.

If your tactic has the adds running through the boss, you should use Combustion closely before the adds spawn to build a big Mastery: Ignite on the boss, and then spread it to the adds as they walk over the boss.

When adds are low, make sure to target them with Scorch instead of DPSing the boss, for Searing Touch.

You can use Shimmer (or Blink) to quickly get through the flame walls from Primal Flame and continue DPSing without having to move through when an add has been killed.

We currently have no Mythic specific tips for Eranog.

For more information, please refer to our Eranog guide.

We suggest using the standard talents listed at the top of this page.

Keep an eye on your boss mod timer for Resonating Annihilation, to ensure you do not use all your DPS cooldowns right before it goes out as you are very likely to have to move when it goes out. If it does spawn in the area, you are in, use Shimmer/ Blink or cast while moving via Ice Floes to get out of the zone. You have quite a lot of time, so make sure you do this without giving up DPS.

We currently have no Mythic specific tips for Terros.

For more information, please refer to our Terros guide.

We suggest using the standard talents listed at the top of this page.

Ensure you use your cooldowns while all 4 bosses are stacked up so your big Mastery: Ignite can spread to all of them.

Make sure you activate Ice Floes before moving into a pool of fire to cleanse your Primal Blizzard stacks to ensure you do not stop casting while moving in and out of it, or time your stack clears with instant Pyroblasts.

We currently have no Mythic specific tips for Primal Council.

We suggest taking Shimmer here when learning the fight to avoid being knocked off the platform due to the various knockback mechanics in this fight while learning it, as you can quickly use it mid-air to save yourself. However, when you are more experienced with the fight, you can use Ice Floes instead, as it will allow you to avoid the mechanics without losing DPS.

When the boss starts casting Gossamer Burst, you can activate Alter Time, then let yourself get dragged close to the edge and then re-activate Alter Time to be far away again, followed by immediately Ice Floes into a web patch.

Whenever adds walk through/near the boss, make sure to spread Mastery: Ignite to them.

We currently have no Mythic specific tips for Sennarth.

For more information, please refer to our Sennarth guide.

We suggest the standard talents for this fight.

When you get Conductive Mark, activate Alter Time when at full health and re-active when the damage from the mark brings you low. Additionally, use Ice Cold when needed.

Right at the start of Cyclone you can activate Alter Time to snapshot your position and re-active it when you get close to the boss. You can also use Shimmer/ Ice Floes to keep DPS up while moving against the pull.

We currently have no Mythic specific tips for Dathea.

For more information, please refer to our Dathea guide.

We suggest the standard talents for this fight.

When you get Biting Chill, activate Alter Time when at full health and re-activate when the damage from the debuff brings you low. You can also Ice Cold when dropping low.

Keep an eye on the energy bar of the boss, and when the boss is close to being full energy, save your cooldowns for the intermission phase. You should channel Evocation while the boss is flying to the middle and start your burn rotation on the adds when they are grouped up.

We currently have no Mythic specific tips for Kurog Grimtotem.

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

We suggest the standard talents for this fight.

A lot of groups assign a large group of players to focus entirely on boss damage, while others entirely on add damage. If you are assigned entirely to adds, make sure you focus down the high-health targets and let Mastery: Ignite do your AoE damage, instead of hitting the smaller adds, as that will cause you to lose out on Ignite damage.

When the boss casts Icy Shroud, cast Blazing Barrier to get rid of it via Energized Barriers.

We currently have no Mythic-specific tips for Broodkeeper Diurna. These are expected to follow during the first few weeks of Mythic being out.

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

We suggest the standard talents for this boss.

If you get targeted with Static Charge, you should activate Alter Time before Shimmering away from the group, and then re-activating Alter Time after putting down the debuff.

Your Rune of Power and cooldowns in general will line up with Hurricane Wing quite often on this fight. When this happens, ensure you are already close to a Static Field, to ensure your Rune drops close to the pool, so you can simply sidestep when the winds begin Into the Static Field without losing uptime on Rune.

Depending on your group's damage, cooldowns will align differently with the different phases. However, it is very important you align your cooldowns at least with the huge bonus damage moments in phase 2. ( Focused Charge) This effect happens shortly after the start of phase 2, so hold onto your cooldowns at the start of phase 2 until you get the buff.
