Venomous Abyss Backstory

Guided by the dark whispers of Malacrass, Zul'jan has freed the forgotten broods of Ula'tek from their prison. As the monster's power grows, Zul'jarra calls upon the Champions of Azeroth to descend into the Vaults of Atal'Utek to stop her brother before the weapon is unleashed upon Azeroth.

How to Enter Venomous Abyss

The Venomous Abyss is located inside the Vaults of Atal'Utek, the subzone of the Coiled Isle. Inside the Vaults, the raid is located in the center of the area.

Loot Item Levels

In the Venomous Abyss, loot item levels scale with difficulty, from Raid Finder up to Mythic. Bosses drop gear within specific item level ranges, and the further you progress, the higher the base drop item levels will be.

  • "Boss 1" is Nek'zali the Soulcaller.
  • "Boss 2-3" are the Entombed Sentinels and the Lost Explorers.
  • "Boss 4-6" are Vashnik the Malignant, Sszorak and the Twin Fangs.
  • "Boss 7-8" are the Coiled Altar and Ula'tek.

For Mythic difficulty only, the final two bosses in Venomous Abyss (The Coiled Altar and Ula'tek) drop loot above the intended Myth-level gear curve. They drop what would be the equivalent of a Myth 9/6 upgraded piece, and do not require further upgrading.
