Complete Guide to Every Aberrus Raid Boss

hey folks in this video I'll give you a detailed summary of everything important you need to know in order to defeat every aberrish raid boss on normal and heroic difficulty a few of the later bosses are a bit more complicated so I'll also release a full Standalone guide for them later on in the week which will go into a bit more detail that being said this video should contain more than enough information to help you kill every boss on heroic difficulty with all that out of the way let's jump into the raid bosses starting with kazara the hellforged bizara's primary mechanic is dread riffs the debuff will Target a few random players and after 5 Seconds it'll explode dealing damage to anyone nearby and leaving behind a patch on the ground when targeted by this ability you should drop it towards the edges of the room kazara will also cast rays of Anguish which are laser beams that will chase after random players on normal difficulty these beams will eventually despawn but on heroic difficulty you'll need to manually kite the beam into one of the dread Rift puddles on the ground this will cause both the beam and the rift to disappear when Zara reaches 80 60 and 40 Health she'll deal a large burst of damage to the raid and shatter a portion of her armor causing AOE swirlies to appear throughout the room killer should watch the boss's Health to prepare for this damage Spike and DPS players should try to save their personal defensives to help out the healers her Tank's the only mechanic you need to worry about is Terror claws which is a heavy hitting tank Buster cast by kazara once every 30 seconds this ability deals High physical damage low Shadow damage and leaves behind a debuff on the tank you should taunt off your co-tank after they receive one stack of this debuff gazara has two final abilities wings of Extinction is a moderate burst of raid wide damage that pushes everyone back it also leaves behind a nasty dot on the raid that your healers will need to deal with lastly kazara will turn towards a random player and cast hellbeam this is pretty easy to deal with because if you notice she's facing you you can just step to the side and avoid her hell beam if you don't move and you get hit by the beam you'll die very quickly as a final note while while fighting kazara you should probably use bloodlust on pole but you can also save it for the last 40 percent of the fight if you find that your group is struggling to meet the healing check next up I'll discuss the amalgamation chamber which is one of the choices you'll have for your second boss before the fight begins you'll need to divide your raid into two equally sized groups this is because the initial phase of the encounter involves fighting two different minibosses which need to be tanked on opposite sides of the room as the fight goes on each of these bosses will apply a stacking debuff to all nearby players which deals moderate ticking damage in the case of the Shadow boss it also reduces your maximum health this debuff can be really nasty if it reaches High Stacks so I'd recommend having everyone in your raid except for the tanks switch to the opposite boss at around 10 to 13 Stacks if you remain far enough away from one of the bosses for over 20 seconds all of your stacks for that Associated debuff will fall off since tanks can easily survive high Stacks they should stay on the same side for all of phase one just to make sure that the boss positioning doesn't get screwed up each of these bosses has a set of mechanics that they'll use during phase one the Eternal Blaze will fire off a few lava tornadoes and a random player and these need to be avoided it'll also cast fiery meteor which is a large swirly Circle that deals less damage the more people stand inside of it when this goes out everyone in your raids Fire Group should help soak it on heroic difficulty The Blaze will also cast molten eruption which is a series of smaller AOE circles around the room each of these circles must be soaked by a single player or the raid will take heavy damage the shadow boss also has three abilities and the first of which is umbral detonation this debuff targets a few random players causing them to explode after 6 seconds and leave a puddle on the ground if you get targeted by this run to the edges of the room to drop off your puddle the shadow boss will also cast coalescing void which causes a large purple orb to appear after a few seconds this orb will explode and deal heavy damage to the raid but the damage is lessened the further away you are from the orb when it appears your entire raid should run away and when it explodes your attention drag the boss back to where it was before finally on her own difficulty the boss will cast Shadow's convergence which causes multiple small purple orbs to collapse inwards towards the boss's location look for an opening in between the purple balls and move through it to avoid taking any damage for tanks nothing too special happens during this phase the fire and Shadow bosses have many tank Busters called Flame slash and Shadow Spike respectively but these abilities won't force you to do any tank swaps once both bosses reach 50 Health they'll become immune and a new boss the shadow flame amalgamation will appear you should use bloodlust the moment the amalgamation becomes attackable your raid also no longer needs to be split up and they should meet in the center of the room to fight this boss together as the phase progresses everyone will receive increasing stacks of Shadow flame contamination which deals heavy ticking damage and reduces your maximum health by one percent per stack this is the the soft and rage of the fight as you'll need to finish the boss before your Stacks get too high the first thing I'll address in this phase are the tank mechanics as unlike before you actually have a tank swap the boss will First cast withering vulnerability which deals massive physical damage to the current tank and makes them take 200 increased Shadow flame damage for 10 seconds once this goes out the other tank should immediately taunt as the amalgamation will follow up with a cone of Shadow damage aimed at the current tank throughout this phase you should have one tank assigned to get hit with withering vulnerability while the other tank taunts off for shadow flame burst the boss has three additional mechanics during this phase and each one is a fusion of the spells from phase one of the encounter for instance Gloom conflagration will cause a large meteor Circle to appear on the tank and your rage should stand in it to split the incoming damage immediately after the soak goes off a purple orb will appear that your raid should run away from just like in Phase 1 when it explodes you'll take less damage the further away you are from it blistering Twilight is a debuff applied to multiple players and as usual this drops a puddle and should be taken to the edges of the room when the debuff expires each player will also fire off a series of lava waves that everyone needs to avoid finally on heroic difficulty the boss will cast convergent eruption this causes multiple silk circles to appear throughout the room and one person will need to stand inside of each circle as soon as each circle gets soaked the boss will fire an AOE swirly at your location so you'll need to move quickly to avoid being hit this phase may seem pretty complicated but provided you can handle all the soaks properly and kill the boss before your healers get overwhelmed the fight shouldn't be too tricky next up is assault of the sakali which is the ad fight of the raid once again you'll need to split your raid into two separate groups before the fight begins start of the encounter you'll briefly attack warlord Cagney who is effectively the main boss in this fight while you will be engaging a lot of different smaller enemies during assault of the sakali you need to prioritize dealing damage to warlord Cagney whenever possible as killing him is the only way to end the encounter as for bloodlust some groups may choose to use it on pull but during the first few weeks of the raid I'd recommend holding it until the end of the fight 30 seconds after the fight begins Cagney will cause piles of rubble to appear on the ground before he becomes immune to damage and leaps away at this point your rage should split up into their pre-assigned groups with one running to a balcony at the far end of the hallway while the other runs onto the balcony near the entrance the group near the entrance should be the one to pick up the first pile of rubble on the floor this Rebel is used to kill off certain ads which climb up the wall throughout the fight you won't be able to kill off every ad just by dropping Rubble on them but by getting rid of a few guards or Huntsman it should make it easier for your raid to not get overwhelmed warlord Cagney will spawn additional pieces of Rebel throughout the fight so you should have a few players pre-assigned to grab these and knock the ad ads Off the Wall speaking of the ads there are four different types which you'll encounter wall climbers are generic mobs that have no special abilities however tanks still need to pick them up as the wall climbers will try to run to the doorway in the center of the room and if they manage to reach it and attack it it'll trigger an ability called barrier backfire if this goes off it effectively kills your entire raid as long as tanks don't let any of these guys slip through you should be fine next up the obsidian guards and Flame bound Huntsman are slightly stronger than the average wall climber the Huntsman will fire AOE swirlies and nearby players while the guard will Target a random player with a rectangular AOE blast if you get targeted by this blast you won't be able to avoid it so just stand still and let the rest of your raid move away neither the guards nor the Huntsman are particularly dangerous so they should be cleaved down along with the wall climbers truly dangerous ad in this fight is the magma Mystic and this should always be your top kill priority shortly after spawning these Mystics will cast molten barrier causing them to gain a massive absorption which deals ramping pulsing damage to the raid until it's broken as you might expect breaking this absorption is your number one priority as otherwise the damage will quickly kill off your raid once the Mystic Shield is broken they'll shoot out interruptable lava bolts at random players in the raid and they should be kicked whenever possible finally throughout this phase warlord Cagney will leap between each of the two platforms and he must be picked up by the tank the moment he lands Cagney's Landing also sends out a series of AOE swirlies that need to be avoided the boss will periodically cast heavy cudgel which is a massive cone into the tank this deals heavy physical damage and increases the Tank's physical damage taken by 15 for 45 seconds this debuff can stack so tank should save their best defensives for when they have two stacks of heavy cudgel finally tanks should make sure Cagney is faced away from the raid so nobody else gets hit by heavy casual after warlord Cagney reaches 25 Health he'll run towards the center of the hallway and start the Final Phase almost immediately he'll cast desperate immolation which causes him to be healed for 10 of his maximum health over a few seconds this heal is affected by mortal strike or other healing reduction debuffs so you should try to make sure Cagney has one of these effects on him before he moves into the Final Phase as mentioned before this is a good place to use your bloodlust if you didn't already cast it on pull throughout this phase Cagney only uses two abilities the first of which is Flaming cudgel this is mostly identical to the aforementioned heavy cudgel ability but this one has a new addition after the cone hits the tank everyone in the raid will explode and deal fire damage to anyone within 6 yards of them because of this your raid must be spread out during flaming cudgel as getting hit by multiple fire explosions will almost certainly result in your death as usual the tank should aim this cone away from the raid finally Cagney will Target the nearby door with a catastrophic slam and your Aid must stand inside of this ability to split the incoming damage on heroic this slam will also apply a diva which increases your damage taken from catastrophic Slam by 200 percent so after you soak one of them you probably won't be able to soak another for this reason unheroic you should only have half of your raids soak each slam and to make it really simple you can just use the same assignments from the Platforms in Phase One also it's really important that nobody misses the soak as cacne will cause a barrier backfire if there aren't enough people in it to split the damage next we'll take a look at the Forgotten experiments which is unlocked after you defeat the amalgamation chamber in this encounter you'll fight three different bosses one after another and the first steel engage is naldris neldris's primary mechanic is rending charge this will Target multiple players and after a few seconds neldris will charge to them dealing heavy damage and applying a bleed this charge will also hit anyone standing in between naldris or the targeted player so it's important that you run away from the raid if neldris selects you for rending charge neldris will also periodically cast bellowing Roar which is a raid-wide AOE that deals less damage the further away from it you are finally massive slam is a large AOE cone targeted at a random player when the code appears everyone in your raid should run out of it it's pretty straightforward while that covers most of naldris's Unique Mechanics I want to quickly touch upon the tank ability before discussing the other two bosses in this fight and few strikes is a debuff that will be applied to the tank whenever they receive an auto attack from one of the bosses this is a mechanic that all three bosses in this fight will use and it's the primary thing that tanks need to worry about this debuff will stack indefinitely as you take more Auto attacks and the only way to clear it is by coming into contact with another player that also has the Infuse strikes debuff what this means in practice is that one tank will hold the boss until they reach roughly six to eight Stacks at which point the other tank will taunt the second tank will then get one stack of infused strikes and both tanks will touch each other to clear off the debuff this causes the raid to be hit with a pulse of damage that leaves behind a DOT called infused explosion this dot lasts for 20 seconds and until it expires the tank should not clear off their few strike debuffs again once the raid finishes off neldris thadrion will join the fight throughout this phase multiple players will receive a debuff called unstable Essence which is a DOT that deals ramping damage the longer it stays on a player when it gets dispelled the dot will immediately jump to a nearby player and an ad called an erratic Remnant will spawn these remnants deal pulsing damage to the raid and must be killed off immediately badrion also has a mechanic called violent eruption which is an 8 second channel that deals pulsing damage to the raid if any erratic Remnant adds are alive while phagreon is channeling this ability they'll begin pulsing massive additional damage onto the raid which usually results in a wipe for this reason it's absolutely crucial that you never dispel unstable Essence before violent eruption goes out since the damage dealt by unstable Essence will slowly ramp up over time healers shouldn't be in any rush to dispel it Additionally the fact that it immediately jumps to another player and spawns an erratic Remnant ad means you're actively punished for dispelling this debuff too often I'd recommend completely ignoring these debuffs until after the violent eruption cast finishes at which point healers can safely dispel all of them this will give your DPS plenty of time to kill off the unstable Essences before thatrion casts violent eruption once again finally thatrion will also cast volatile spew which just fires off a few AOE swirlies across the room just avoid these and you should be fine optic thadrion is killed the final boss of the encounter riampus will appear I'd recommend using your bloodlust after this boss spawns during his phase he'll repeatedly cast the Centigrade at a few randomly selected players if you get targeted by this ability you'll deal Splash damage to any players standing nearby so you should run out of the raid to prevent this from happening throughout the fight riotus will also summon temporal anomaly orbs at the edges of the room that'll slowly move towards him if an orb reaches riampus he'll gain his shield for 15 of his maximum health which is obviously not something you want to happen thankfully if a player runs into this orb it'll collide with them dealing a bit of damage and bouncing in the other direction while DPS players can technically help bounce the orb you should probably have the tanks handle it when they aren't actively holding riomphus that being said if the fight goes on for too long you'll need to begin bouncing multiple anomalies at once and that'll likely require the EPS to help out finally rianthus will periodically leap into the air and begin casting deep breath this is a large rectangular AOE that crosses the entire room and if you get hit by it you'll probably die if you see that riomphus is about to cast this look up and check to find which section of the room he's about to hit then just quickly move to an area that's safe after he finishes his first deep breath rianthus will immediately leave to a new location and begin to breathe a second time so you need to be ready to move ASAP if he jumps over to your section of the room after two deep breaths reactus will land and the fight will continue until you kill him or he kills you rashock the Elder is the next boss we'll be discussing and his mechanics are quite simple when compared to the last few the main mechanic that he'll cast throughout the fight is searing slam this will Target a random player and after a few seconds rashock will leap towards their location deal heavy damage to the entire raid and leave behind a lava puddle on the ground wherever he lands as you might expect players targeted with searing slams should always run to the edges of the room in order to drop off their lava puddles however however it's absolutely crucial that you don't stand too close to an existing lava puddle as rashock will immediately wipe the raid if two pedals are touching the hitbox on this is pretty unforgiving so I'd recommend always putting a safe distance between yourself and any nearby puddles if you get targeted by searing slam as a final note these pedals will periodically shoot out lava waves that your raid will need to avoid rashock's next ability is Doom Flames which fires off multiple circles around the room that need to be soaked by a single player he has another ability charge smash which is a split damage soak centered around the tank that your entire rage can stand in on heroic this will also leave behind a nasty dot rashock will also sometimes cast Shadow lava blast which is a large AOE cone aimed in the direction of a random player finally there are two additional abilities that tanks will need to be aware of rashock has a tank Buster combo which consists of two abilities flaming slash and Earthen Crush during his combo rashock will cast one of these abilities a single time and it'll cast the other ability twice if one tank is hit by the same ability two times in one combo they'll take three thousand percent increase damage and well die because of this you should only taunt rashock when your kotank is about to be hit by a duplicate ability in the combo even if you handle this mechanic properly it'll still deal a massive amount of damage so it's crucial that you save major defensive cooldowns for every single combo rashock's final mechanic involves his energy bar which will slowly increase as the fight progresses if he reaches 100 energy he'll instantly wipe the raid which is why you need to use the conduit in the center of the room to drain energy from Rasha to start this process tanks will need to kite rash off through the center of the room and you should only do this when he's around 95 energy this causes rashock to be stunned for 30 seconds during which time your raid can freely damage him however healers will still need to work overtime as the boss will be pulsing ramping damage onto the entire raid additionally lines and AOE swirlies will fire out from the center of the room and players will need to avoid this after rashock's energy has been fully drained he'll do a light amount of raid-wide damage before returning to phase one the conduit can only be used to drain rashock's energy twice during the fight after which it'll break and become unusable from that point on you'll need to race to finish off rashock before he reaches 100 energy and wipes your raid as a final note you could use bloodlust for the conduit phases if your healers are struggling with it but you'll probably want to use it on pull to maximize your damage ultimately this decision is up to your raid leader after defeating both rashock and the Forgotten experiments you can fight to scan the Vigilant Steward the most important thing to understand about saskaran is that the floor tiles in his room are actually part of the encounter throughout the fight discard will frequently cast dragon fire traps causing the two tiles nearest him to activate and be covered with fire this means means the tanks will need to carefully position the boss along the wall and kite them around when the tiles become active melee DPS will need to be especially careful when attacking zaskaran as standing in an active tile will cause you to take a ton of damage this isn't the only way in which the traps will activate though as saskaran will also summon ads called dragon fire Golems these Golems will run around the room and attempt to activate additional traps which you really don't want to happen DPS players should try to kill these Golems ASAP while they're active and you can also use crowd control abilities like stuns slows grips or knockbacks to ensure the Golems don't activate any traps before they die once a Golem has been defeated you can loot its body to receive a salvage part which is an extra action button that allows you to disable an active trap well you should try to prioritize disabling traps that are in inconvenient spots the only thing that really matters is you use every spare part before it expires as it's always nice to have less traps active in the room for tanks this fight will be a little bit tricky as you have a few things you need to worry about first is the skarn will toss multiple shrapnel bombs throughout the room and tanks need to run on top of these to soak the blast before the bomb blows up on the entire raid generally speaking these bombs will instantly kill DPS players if they accidentally walk over it however during testing we found out that if DPS players have an immunity they could help soak some of these bombs I wouldn't recommend relying on the strategy but it's important to know that it exists while one tank is busy clearing out trapler bombs the other will need to hold zaskaran and handle his searing claws this is a stacking fire debuff that gets applied to the current tank every time they're hit with one of zaskar's Auto attacks you should aim to taunt swap on saskaran at around 7-10 Stacks but the exact amount isn't very important as long as all the shraplo bombs are clear and all of your stacks of searing claws have expired you should be safe to tonsa scarn as the fight goes on your tanks will take turns handling shrapnel bombs and moving saskaran around the room throughout the fight saskarn will also cast blastway which is a heavy hit on the raid that pushes all players away from him it's important to be mindful of your positioning when blastwave is about to go out as you don't want to accidentally get pushed into a dragon fire trap or a shrapnel bomb on heroic he'll also apply unstable Embers to multiple players which is a top that explodes after 10 seconds and Deals bonus damage to anyone standing nearby I'm gonna sound like a broken record here but if you get this debuff you should run out of the raid so you don't hit anyone else thankfully this one doesn't drop a puddler or anything of the sort you just need to stand five yards away from other players the final mechanic of ziskar's fight is tactical destruction this causes some of the nearby dragon statues along the wall to Glow before pulsing fire damage in a large area each statue will fire off multiple fire pulses in a row which will increase in size every time until the pulse reaches the center of the room if anyone gets hit by this pulse they'll die immediately so running away from the active statues is your top priority something that isn't communicated by the Journal is that every time zaskaran casts tactical destruction an additional dragon statue will begin pulsing fire the first cat test only affects two statues but the second will affect three statues and so on this mechanic along with the dragon fire traps is the soft and rage of the fight as active statues during tactical destruction mean you'll have very little space in the room to hide because of how impactful this mechanic is it effectively dictates how you deal with everything else in the encounter when tactical destruction activates the entire raid will need to run to the opposite side of the room and tanks will need to quickly reposition saskaran against the far wall if you don't do this fast enough he may activate traps in the middle of the room which gives you less space to work with also because you won't be able to attack the Golems while tactical destruction is going off it's crucial that your DPS kill them the moment they spawn if you delay killing a Golem for too long tactical destruction May force you to run away from it allowing the Golem to freely activate multiple traps while you're stuck on the opposite side of the room as you can probably tell zaskaran is a very chaotic fight that'll likely be the first major wall for many guilds before fighting him your rage should work out a plan for how they want to move the boss around the room as this means you likely need to do less thinking on the fly if you manage to get the movement down and deal with the Golems efficiently saskaran should fall over the next boss you'll encounter is magmarax and this is the classic sludgefist style damage and healing check for the raid the main ability he'll cast throughout the fight is molten spittle which is debuff applied to multiple random players when it expires the affected players will explode dealing damage to anyone nearby and dropping a puddle on the ground unlike many other abilities you don't necessarily want to run to the edge of the room with this debuff the puddle that it creates will slowly grow in size over time unless players are standing inside of it as more people stand inside of these puddles they'll begin to shrink until they disappear entirely however doing this will cause you to gain stacks of searing heat which is a nasty fire dot that lasts for 15 seconds if you let this buff reach 25 Stacks it'll kill you instantly though the ticking damage will likely already become lethal even if you let it reach 10 Stacks the best way to handle this mechanic is to drop the puddles just far enough away from magmarak so that he doesn't get hit if the boss touches a magma puddle he'll begin to cast placing tantrum which effectively causes a wipe by dropping the puddles just out of range of him your DPS can quickly clear them without losing too much uptime on the boss it's important that you let your searing heat Stacks fully expire before you try to soak another puddle as otherwise your Stacks will be fully refreshed and you'll begin to take a lot of damage as long as no pedals are dropped beneath the bus and everyone in your raid helps soak them this mechanic shouldn't be too difficult as a final note when magmarax is about to die you can probably justify dropping the puddles on the opposite side of the room as they'll take quite a while to expand across the entire platform while these puddles are the most important part of the fight there are still other mechanics that you need to be aware of magmarax will periodically cast igniting Roar which deals heavy raid wide damage and causes multiple individual silk circles to appear throughout the room every single one of these circles needs to be soaked as otherwise they'll deal massive damage to the raid and form an additional puddle which is really really bad that being said after soaking one of these puddles you'll take 150 additional damage from them for one minute which means you can't help soak two aniting Roars in a row as long as people do musical chairs properly and don't double up on a single soak you should have more than enough people to cover every igniting Roar macmax has another ability called blazing breath which is a massive cone aimed at a random player if you're standing too far away from magmarax it may be difficult to avoid this cone so you should always try to stand somewhat close to him even if you're a ranged DPS or healer magrax is final regular ability is overpowering stop which deals heavy damage to the raid and sends everyone flying away from him the knockback effect on this ability is really powerful and there aren't any walls that you can put your back to while many classes such as death Knights monks demon Hunters can simply negate the knockback classes like priests and Paladin will struggle to deal with it ideally you should have other ways to handle this knockback such as a rescue from a friendly evoker or a well-timed warlock Gateway but if you're out of options you'll just need to make sure that you're standing in a location that doesn't send you flying into the lava additionally if there's any active magma puddles in the room make sure you don't get knocked into one and accidentally refresh your searing heat Stacks magnrax's tank mechanic is incinerating Moz and this is thankfully pretty easy to deal with it deals heavy physical damage to the current tank spread out across three different hits and leaves behind a stacking fire dot that lasts for 30 seconds after one tank has received all three hits from a single incinerating maw the other tank should taunt the boss the final aspect of magmarax that's worth noting is his heart and rage which happens after he reaches 100 energy this causes him to cast catastrophic eruption which will kill off your raid very quickly it takes around 4-5 minutes for magmarax to reach his maximum energy so you have until then to kill magmarax before he kills you echo of notharian is the penultimate boss of the raid and while he's a decent step up and difficulty most of his mechanics are pretty easy to understand at the start of the fight your entire rage should group up on one side of the room and your 10 will need to taunt eltharian over to the rest of the raid this specific positioning is important because now thorian will create rock walls which divide the room into five different sections these rock walls can't be crossed by normal means so if you get stuck in a different section away from your raid you'll need to wait for a bit to rejoin the fight dealing with these rock walls is your primary objective during phase one of the encounter now thorian has two abilities which directly interact with them the first one being Russian Darkness this ability targets a few randomly selected players in the raid which you can see indicated by a faint purple line connecting neltharian and the targeted players when it goes off the affected players will take damage and be knocked away from naltharian causing them to break any rock walls that they come into contact with additionally anyone standing in between notharian and the targeted player will be silenced for 3 seconds it's important to note that breaking a section of the rock wall will cause you to take a moderate chunk of additional damage and the entire raid will receive a light dot for every piece of the wall that gets broken on its own this dot is fairly trivial but it can stack up to be really nasty if you break too many pieces of the wall at once breaking a wall will also cause AOE swirlies to shoot out across the room and the raid will need to avoid these all of that being said on normal and heroic difficulty there's actually no reason for DPS players to break a rock wall every single time rushing Darkness goes out naltharian will reform the rock walls after a few seconds making it completely pointless to break them using rushing Darkness as a result you should always aim rushing Darkness into the walls of the Boss Arena as this will allow your group to take less damage and it means you won't be knocked back quite as far everyone else in the raid just needs to avoid Standing On Top of rushing Darkness so they don't get silenced for 3 seconds notharian's other ability that interacts with the rock walls is his tank Buster calamitous strike just like rushing Darkness this will deal heavy damage to the tank and knock them back causing them to break any walls they come into contact with however notharian won't immediately reform the walls after a tank breaks them so tanks should use this knockback to open up a path for the raid leading into another section of the room as you might expect tank should taunt the boss immediately after each cast of calamitous strike the reason you'll need to move around the room during this phase is because of an eltharian's next ability echoing Fisher shortly after hitting the tank with calamitous strike notharian will create a fissure at his location that deals massive damage to the entire raid this damage will be lessened the further away you are from it so the moment notharian begins casting echoing Fisher your entire rage should move into the next section of the room this process will repeat multiple times throughout phase one and every time naltharian creates a new echoing Fisher the old ones will also explode for additional raid damage this effectively serves as the soft and rage of phase one as eventually the Fishers will one shot your raid if you have too many of them active at once finally throughout phases 1 and 2 notharian will cast volcanic heart on random players this debuff is pretty straightforward just run it out of the raid and make sure nobody is standing within 15 yards of you when it expires after notharian reaches 70 Health he'll transition into phase two causing him to break and reform all of the walls in the room while dealing pulsing damage to the raid while the boss is reforming the walls you should look for orange swirlies on the ground which indicate where these new balls will appear make sure your entire raid moves into one section of the room before the walls are created as otherwise you'll be cut off from everyone else in Phase 2 notharian will continue to cast volcanic heart and rushing Darkness but you should handle these abilities in the exact same way as you did during phase one additionally there are a few bonus AOE swirlies that your raid will need to avoid and as the face progresses naltharian will deal ramping pulsing damage to your raid if you aren't able to end the phase fast enough nolfarion's AOE pulse will eventually kill you in order to end this phase you'll need to defeat the three Voices From Beyond ads that appear throughout the room on normal difficulty every player can attack these ads but on heroic it's a little bit more complicated maltharian will debuff multiple players in your raid with corruption and this causes them to appear hostile and receive damage from friendly player attacks be very careful about using heavy-hitting abilities right before corruption goes out as you don't want to accidentally kill off a member of your raid the main advantage of being debuffed with corruption is that it allows you to attack the voice from Beyond ads when these ads spawn they'll come with a small absorption and you'll need to break the shield in order to make the ad attackable by the rest of your raid when The Shield is broken corruption will be removed from all players and your entire raid should swap to the vulnerable voice from Beyond and finish it off after killing off the first voice from Beyond you'll want to move into another section of the room to start killing the second ad and once again you'll clear a path through the rock walls by using the tank Buster in Phase 2 nefarian's tank Buster is called Sunder Shadow and it works a bit differently than the ability in phase one after natharian hits you you'll take heavy physical damage and your soul will be knocked out of your body on the tank screen they'll be in full control over their soul and this allows them to pass through the rock walls unhindered on everyone else's screen the Tank's soul will be invisible and their body will be set unmoving in front of an eltharian after a few seconds natharian will deal physical damage to the Tank's body and kick it in the direction of the Tank's Soul the tank will then take Shadow damage equal to their body's missing health and since they have no control over that healers should try to fully heal the Tank's body before it collides with their soul tanks should also try to have major defensives prepared for this just in case the healers can't top off their body finally any walls that the Tank's body passes through as it moves towards the soul will be broken this is probably the most complicated tank Buster ever created but the tldr is that after the tank gets hit they should run through a nearby rock wall so that their body passes through it after it's hit by notherion to make this a little bit easier to sign up the game will connect your soul to your body with a large purple line assuming you manage to break the wall properly the rest of your raid can move through the Gap and begin attacking the second voice from Beyond this process will repeat until all three Voices From Beyond are dead at which point natharian will enter his third and final phase this phase is a pretty straightforward damage burn and you should always save your bloodlust for this part of the fight at the start of phase 3 notharian will once again destroy and reform every rock wall in the room and it'll continue to cast the Russian darkness and calamitous strike which was the tank Buster from phase one as usual rushing Darkness should be aimed into the wall but in this phase you should also aim Calamity to strike into the wall during notharian's Final Phase it is actively detrimental to break any rock walls as he'll frequently turn a set number of them into patches of sundered reality these patches will spew out an endless supply of Twisted aberration ads which do nothing outside of Auto attacking the tanks however these aberrations will deal increasing damage the longer they stay alive so your DPS will need to kill them off before the tanks get overwhelmed the centered reality patches are also important for dealing with notharian's final ability ebb and destruction this cast will deal lethal damage to the entire raid but if you're standing inside of a sundered reality patch the damage you take will be reduced by 99 however standing inside of one of these patches also makes you deal 99 less damage so you should only run into them shortly before nalthorian finishes casting Evan destruction whenever a sundered reality patch is used to negate ebb and destruction the patch will disappear this means it'll no longer summon endless waves of Twisted aberrations so ideally you should stand in as many puddles as possible during each ebb and destruction to make sure they get closed as the face progresses you'll eventually run out of standard reality patches making it impossible to avoid the damage from Evan destruction the this serves as the hardened Rage of the fight as melthorian will instantly kill your raid if you haven't defeated him by that point well there is one final boss in the raid scale Commander sarkareth he was not available for testing during the PTR and as such I have no footage of him and no reliable strategy outside of guesswork that being said I will eventually make a complete guide for normal and heroic sarcrath which will be shown on screen now whenever I end up finishing it lastly if you want to learn more about the other raid bosses or Mythic plus dungeons in season 2
