Kazzara, the Hellforged
Talents/Build
This is a pure single-target encounter.
Tips
Use Cloak of Shadows to avoid damage from
Hellsteel Carnage,
which happens at 80%, 60% and 40%, or if you get stuck in between
Rays of Anguishes.
Use Grappling Hook to counter-act the knockback from
Wings of Extinction.
For more information, please refer to our Kazzara guide.
The Amalgamation Chamber
Talents/Build
This is a pure single-target encounter.
Tips
Use Cloak of Shadows to reset stacks of
Blazing Heat,
Corrupting Shadows and
Shadowflame Contamination.
Mythic Difficulty: You will want to use Cloak of Shadows
right after a tank switch, in order to only have the new debuff. If other melee
also use their immunities, you can stack with one another, and make life easier
for those melee who do not get to remove their previous stacking debuff.
You can easily soak Gloom Conflagration with
Feint.
The Forgotten Experiments
Talents/Build
We recommend the cleave build for this boss.
Tips
Use Cloak of Shadows for more DPS while
Bellowing Roar is
active instead of having to run away from the boss. You can also use it to
mitigate the damage during
Violent Eruption or simply use
Feint.
For more information, please refer to our Forgotten Experiments guide.
Assault of the Zaqali
Talents/Build
We recommend playing the cleave-heavy build on this encounter.
- BQQAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAgQkEgDkkEJSSCkEJRikkkkECAAAAAAQ0CkUSCIRKBAAAA
Tips
Almost all the magical damage on this encounter can be mitigated by both
Feint and
Cloak of Shadows, so use them freely. There is no major
mechanic you want to save these abilities for.
Make sure to have at least some burst damage for the Magma Mystic's Molten Barrier.
For more information, please refer to our Assault of the Zaqali guide.
Rashok, the Elder
Talents/Build
This is a pure single-target encounter.
Tips
Use Feint when soaking
Charged Smash.
Use Cloak of Shadows to cleanse the
Overcharged DoT debuff.
Timing Cloak of Shadows can prevent the application of the
Overcharged
debuff entirely. You will need to use it less than a second before the debuff is
applied, which also allows you to mitigate all damage from
Charged Smash.
For more information, please refer to our Rashok the Elder guide.
The Vigilant Steward, Zskarn
Talents/Build
If your raid consistently stacks the golems close to the boss, you should play the cleave build on this fight, else go for single-target.
Tips
If your guild plans on simply crowd-controlling the Animate Golems, you can
use Blind to do so. Remember that it has a higher cooldown than duration.
Cloak of Shadows is a very good defensive tool on this fight, and you
can use it for either more uptime on mechanics such as
Blast Wave or
defensively if you get caught by
Tactical Destruction or
Dragonfire Traps.
Grappling Hook is useful to counteract the knockback from
Blast Wave.
Magmorax
Talents/Build
This is a pure single-target encounter.
Tips
Use Grappling Hook to counteract the knockback from
Overpowering Stomp.
Cloak of Shadows removes multiple debuffs on this fight such as
Lava Ejection
and
Searing Heat.
For more information, please refer to our Magmorax guide.
Echo of Neltharion
Talents/Build
We recommend playing the cleave build on this boss. Be careful with killing your own raid members with Blade Flurry.
Tips
Feint is incredibly powerful on this encounter, as there are regular
high-damage AoE hits like
Echoing Fissure or
Umbral Annihilation.
Save your Cloak of Shadows for Phase 2 or Phase 3. You do not have to
be inside a portal in Phase 3 during
Ebon Destruction with
Cloak of Shadows
active, and it also removes all stacks of
Ebon Destruction. You will be
getting more adds, however.
Evasion can be used to avoid the debuff from
Shatter.
This can be very helpful in Phase 2 of the encounter. Make sure to face the
boss when using Evasion, as he is the source of the DoT.
For more information, please refer to our Neltharion guide.
Scalecommander Sarkareth
Talents/Build
Only phase 1 is single-target, so make sure to play the cleave build on this boss.
Tips
Phase 1: Use Feint and
Cloak of Shadows freely to mitigate
damage, especially when many players are cleansing their
Oppressing Howl.
Phase 2: There is no mechanic you need to save your defensive cooldowns for in this phase.
Phase 3: Use Cloak of Shadows to not have to hide behind Astral
Formations during
Scouring Eternity.
For more information, please refer to our Scalecommander Sarkareth guide.
