General Information

Welcome to our World of Warcraft encounter guide for Vectis in Uldir. We will teach you everything you need to know to defeat the boss in every difficulty.

On this particular page, we will give you a short overview of the fight as well as a list of things to watch out for (include LFR tips when applicable).

The other pages of our Vectis guide can be accessed from the table of contents on the right.

To make it easy to navigate the guide, we have split it into 3 pages:

• Abilities: read about the encounter abilities;
• Normal/Heroic Strategy/Tactics: find out how to defeat the encounter in Normal and Heroic modes;
• Mythic Strategy: learn how to handle the new mechanics and increased difficulty of Mythic mode.

Vectis can be accessed after Taloc and MOTHER have been slain.

The plague of corrupted blood killed countless trolls and began one of the most terrifying periods in Zandalar's history. The constructs within Uldir studied the disease in search of a cure, but found that only isolation and extermination was effective. Unfortunately, as the facility's safeguards cracked apart, the plague was accidentally combined with a sample of G'huun's blood creating a new entity that hungered for fresh victims.

Vectis is a fight revolving around managing a set of debuffs while the boss cycles between two phases. Omega Vector is a small DoT applied to several people at the start of the fight. Once this DoT expires, it will leave a stacking debuff that increases Nature damage taken, then will jump to the next nearest player. Managing this debuff is key to ensuring a kill.

• Taunt swap when one tank has dropped their stacks of Evolving Affliction.
• Make sure to avoid receiving Omega Vector from your other raiders.

• Keep an eye on players with high stacks of Lingering Infection.
• Be mindful of who Omega Vector is on, and be ready to dump heals into them if they are targeted by Gestate.
• In phase two, give special attention to players soaking Plague Bomb.

• Focus down Plague Amalgams as fast as possible to prevent additional casts of Immunosuppression.

• Coordinate with those around you to drop Omega Vector into targets with low stacks of Lingering Infection.
• In phase 2, be sure to soak Plague Bomb, while also dodging Blood Geyser.

• Tank Vectis where he stands.
• Spread loosely behind the boss to avoid multiple people being hit by Gestate.
• Have players with high stacks of Lingering Infection move farther away from where Omega Vectors are being passed around.

We advise you to use Bloodlust/ Heroism/ Time Warp on the pull to synergize with DPS cooldowns and pre-pots.
