Weekly Mythic+ Dungeon MDT Routes with Tyrannical/Raging/Explosive Affixes
On this page, you will find full MDT routes for all Mythic+ Shadowlands dungeons, complete with our comments for how to best handle each dungeon.
This page is updated on a weekly basis to account for all the Mythic+ affixes present in that given week.
Introduction
This page will provide you with optimal MDT routes for each of the 8
Shadowlands dungeons. It is updated for the current week's Mythic affixes
( Tyrannical,
Raging, and
Explosive,
in addition to the ever-present
Prideful for Mythic+ 10 and
higher keys).
The dungeons on this page are listed alphabetically. For a difficulty ranking of this week's Mythic dungeons, we recommend our dedicated guide, linked below.
De Other Side
Path
Tips
Make sure to always use Soothe or a similar effect when
Enraged Spirit enter Enrage form due
Raging; if you do
not have a Soothe within the group, use immunities or personal defensives to
survive this mob's Rage channel.
Tyrannical makes some boss fight really intense, such as
Hakkar the Soulflayer and Dealer Xy'exa, so make sure to save all
of your cooldowns paired with the Prideful buff!
Halls of Atonement
Path
Tips
Raging can be dangerous on Shard of Halkias once they
cast their
Thrash, so make sure to use
Soothe or similar
effects, and if you do not have that, worry not, you can out-range the cast if
you stay 35+ yards away from the mob.
Tyrannical can be quite dangerous, but saving
Heroism/
Bloodlust, cooldowns, and Prideful buffs will be the
main focus this week, especially on Echelon.
Mists of Tirna Scithe
Path
Tips
Explosive has little to no influence in this dungeon due to
the majority of the pulls being 4-5 mobs; just make sure to not chain several
trash packs together and you are going to have an easy time!
Pay attention to Mistveil Stalker and his Mistveil Tear,
this is especially dangerous if enraged due to
Raging, so if you
do not have
Soothe make sure to personal defensive on the DoT.
Plaguefall
Path
Tips
This dungeon is primarily easy to handle on the trash mob
side by using Unstable Canister and Rigged Plagueborer
to your advantage. Once they drop below 30%, they will cast
Plague Bomb which leaves a lethal DoT on nearby mobs. Enhance this by
making sure the mobs are affected by
Raging first.
Pay attention to Explosive, especially when you engage
Gushing Slime or Plaguebound Devoted; split the pulls
to avoid excessive amount of Explosive orbs spawning!
Sanguine Depths
Path
Tips
Explosive can be a real pain to take care of as the
majority of the pulls are rather large, especially in the
Amphitheater of Sorrow (the last part of the dungeon prior to engaging
General Kaal) so pay attention to them and focus the orbs as soon
as you see them.
Raging can turn lethal when dealing with
Enraged Grand Overseers; to avoid the incoming damage,
you can out-range the
Dread Bindings cast, just make sure
you are at least 30 yards away from the mob (sorry melee players, you just
have to press defensive cooldowns).
Spires of Ascension
Path
Tips
Spires of Ascension can be really tough, especially with this
week's affix rotation. Raging is extremely punishing if you do not
have a
Soothe (or similar effect) in your party. Most of the mobs
become deadly once they reach Enrage so make sure to kite away or avoid
lettings casts going through by interrupting or disturbing them.
Pay extra attention to Klotos, as once he is Enraged it will
quickly turn lethal to the whole party; make sure to nuke him down fast,
possibly using Bloodlust/
Heroism and all of your offensive
and defensive cooldowns!
As we already mentioned in our weekly dungeon rankings article, when the
mobs are stunned, they do not spawn Explosive, so having
a Kyrian within your party to obtain
Spear of Destiny and stun the mobs
will make some dangerous pulls significantly easier!
The Necrotic Wake
Path
Tips
Use Raging to your advantage by deliberately Enraging the
Flesh Crafter and aiming his
Throw Cleaver towards enemy
mobs.
Make sure to not pull several packs of mobs together due to
Explosive being present, especially around The Grim Harvest area
(Blightbone area); use stuns to prevent as many Explosive orb
spawns as possible.
Theater of Pain
Path
Tips
Theater of Pain is known to be one of the hardest dungeons in
Shadowlands, and with this week's affix rotation is no different. The most
important thing thing is to pay attention to the Raging affix,
especially on Portal Guardian's
Soulstorm, as it turns deadly
if not
Soothed (or similar effect).
Tyrannical has a big impact on the difficulty of the dungeon,
making some bosses extremely dangerous, like Kul'tharok and
Mordretha, the Endless Empress, so make sure to time your
Bloodlust/
Heroism accordingly and save some cooldowns!
