The experiments within Uldir conducted tests upon countless lifeforms, including several loa who inhabited the forests around Zandalar. After the experiments proved lethal, the loa's remains were disposed of improperly, much to the delight of the dark consciousness imprisoned within Uldir.

Fetid Devourer is a single-phase encounter involving heavy tank damage and brief instances in which the raid must disengage from the boss in order to kill add spawns around the room. At 50% Health, the boss will frenzy, increasing the damage he deals and receives, further increasing the threat to tank survivability.

• Make sure you are stacked together so the off-tank is targeted by Terrible Thrash. This will happen every 4th melee swing.
• Be prepared for Fetid Frenzy when the boss reaches 50% Health.

• Tanks are going to take a lot of damage, so be mindful if their Health.
• Keep an eye on people with inflicted with Malodorous Miasma as it will transform into Putrid Paroxysm at the end of its duration.
• Make sure that Shockwave Stomp pushes you back towards the targets that you are assigned to heal.
• If tanking the Terrible Thrash, make sure to keep an eye on the boss's stacks, so you are able to know when the hit is coming.

• Be quick when swapping targets to kill the Corruption Corpuscles.
• You can use Shockwave Stomp to knock you towards the Corruption Corpuscle you are assigned to kill.

• Do not get knocked into the Corruption Corpuscle as they are spawning, as the waste falling from the ceiling will give you a stack of Malodorous Miasma.
• Dodge Rotting Regurgitation.
• When needed, counter Shockwave Stomp by using abilities like Blink, Transcendence, or other displacements.

• Tank Fetid Devourer in the center of the room.
• Dedicated tank healers should be positioned in such a way that they are knocked in the same direction as the tanks.
• When the Corruption Corpuscles spawn, bring the boss to the closest one so the melee can cleave the two, while the ranged handle the farther one.

We advise you to use Bloodlust/ Heroism/ Time Warp when the boss reaches 50% and casts Fetid Frenzy. Not only will the DPS be able to capitalize on the burst window, but he tanks will be taking tremendous damage at this point, and giving healers a buffer to help keep them alive is an extra bonus.
