Warbreaker and
Bladestorm should be saved for.
Focused Azerite Beam is also a powerful multi-target damage Major
essence, although it requires the targets to be well stacked.
In phase two, use Heroic Leap to easily deal with
Aqua Lance.

Ancient Flame
- Essence of the Focusing Iris — Rank 3:
Tips
The bosses must be kept 21 yards apart, making it a single-target encounter.
The Repeat Performance decree can be dealt with by using off
global cooldown abilities to avoid repeating the same ability twice in a
row.
Fervor of Battle will always count as two different abilities.
The majority of the fight will be a single target burn, while avoiding
boss abilities. Sweeping Strikes can be used to cleave nearby Sparks,
but they should not be killed too quickly after one another.
For more information, please refer to our The Queen's Court strategy guide.
Za'qul, Harbinger of Ny'alotha
We advise you to use the following essences against Za'qul, Harbinger of Ny'alotha.

- Purification Protocol — Rank 3:
Purification Protocol
- Essence of the Focusing Iris — Rank 3:
Tips
The Benthic item Zanj'ir Scaleguard Greatbelt and
Purification Protocol will do extra damage to Aberrations in
this encounter.
The Delirium Realm increases Haste by 30%, and allows you to
damage allies, so be careful not to cleave them or be cleaved by them. The
movement and phasing will also make
Lifeblood difficult to
maintain.
Berserker Rage can immune the fear from
Dread, but it
counts as an immediate dispel, which will cause a large burst of damage to
all players. Ensure your healers are aware of this, or it can easily wipe the
raid.
For more information, please refer to our Za'qul, Harbinger of Ny'alotha strategy guide.
Queen Azshara
We advise you to use the following essences against Queen Azshara.
- Major Slot
- Memory of Lucid Dreams — Rank 3:
Memory of Lucid Dreams +
Lucid Dreams
- Memory of Lucid Dreams — Rank 3:
- Minor Slots
- The Crucible of Flame — Rank 3:
Ancient Flame
- EssenceoftheFocusingIris — Rank 3:
Focused Energy
- The Crucible of Flame — Rank 3:
Tips
In Phase One, do not use Charge against the Overzealous Hulk, or
it will become immune to stuns. Otherwise, avoid damaging effects on the
ground and deal damage to the mini-bosses until the phase ends.
Phase Two is largely tunneling the boss, occasionally moving around the
pillar to line of sight her Arcane Burst/
Arcane Detonation or
standing in a
Ward of Power to recharge it — this applies a 2-minute
debuff which removes 10% of maximum health with each stack, so do not let it
go beyond 5.
Phase Three spawns adds which take priority over the boss. Although you
can cleave them with Sweeping Strikes, take care to ensure you are
hitting the Tidemistress and Queen, without damaging the Loyal Myrmidon, as
it is very easy to kill prematurely. Your
Drained Soul debuff will
typically fall during this phase or the next, so ensure you soak another
Ward of Power when appropriate.
Phase Four is a single-target burn on the boss, while avoiding ground
effects. You may randomly gain Essence of Azeroth, which will grant a
large buff that automatically kills you after 40 seconds; if that happens,
ensure you use all remaining cooldowns during that time.
For more information, please refer to our Queen Azshara strategy guide.
