Holy Paladin Healing Vault of the Incarnates Raid Guide — Season 4
On this page, you will find tips, tricks, and strategies tailored to your Holy Paladin for each boss of the following raid: Vault of the Incarnates. All our content is updated for World of Warcraft — Season 4.
Disclaimer
In this section, you will find information about each boss individually in Aberrus. These tips and build recommendations will not change regardless of whether you have the set bonus. Instead, you will be primarily deciding if you should run Beacon of Virtue or Beacon of Faith. While Virtue has the higher potential ceiling, it can be quite mana-intensive so do not hesitate to swap off of it when facing fights where mana is a concern.

Terros
Recommended Talents:
- BEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAQAARAAACQLJFoUik0aIlk4AlkEKaiGQSJJIJEpgmkIAgAAFgQSCC
Tips
- Using Divine Shield will cause Infused Fallout to fall off of you. Given that 20 players will be impacted by the debuff and need to clear with each other, you will NOT want to clear this debuff with your immunity unless some players are already dead.
- Try to go into every Seismic Assault with full holy power, as this is the hardest healing check of the fight, and you will want to be prepared.
For more information, please refer to our Terros guide.

Raszageth the Storm-Eater
Recommended Talents:
- BEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAQAARAAACQLJFoUik0aIlk4AlkEKaiGQSJJIJEpgmkIAgAAFgQSCC
Tips
- Divine Shield should be used to prevent yourself from being knocked back Hurricane Wing. In most cases, you will want to use this on either the 4th or 5th wing that occurs in phase 1.
- During phase 2, you may want to move Beacon of Light to squishy classes such as mages and boomkins, who may struggle to live with the high damage that comes from Stormsurge.
- In the final phase, Blessing of Sacrifice can be used on the tanks to reduce the damage taken from Thunderous Blast
- On Mythic Difficulty, Fulminating Charge roots players but Blessing of Freedom can be used to remove this root, allowing players to safely move away from the raid and drop the debuff off. You should aim to do this every time the debuffs come out.
