We advise you to use the following Legendary against Shriekwing: Ancient Teachings of the Monastery.

• Leverage your Transcendence in order to either quickly escape from the boss's line of sight, or to return to the boss's location after breaking line of sight.
• Pay attention to the amount of stacks of Exsanguinated on your raiders. Do not bother wasting mana by trying to heal these people unless they are in danger of dying. Rather, wait until their stacks start to fall off before investing the mana to heal them.
• It is recommended that you take Tiger's Lust on this fight, not only to help your slower raid members, but also the extra distance that Chi Torpedo will cause you to move can actually be harmful on a fight with so many positional requirements.
• Mythic: In order to see the sonar disks on Mythic difficulty, you will need a stack of Bloodlight from the Blood Lantern. While this debuff will allow you to see the sonar disks, it also applies a dot that stacks, so be sure to keep your stacks low.

For more information, please refer to our Shriekwing guide.

We advise you to use the following Legendary against Huntsman Altimor: Ancient Teachings of the Monastery.

• Be sure to focus the Tank who is about to be hit by Rip Soul. If the Tank is at full health after this ability hits, the add it spawns will instantly despawn, so feel free to make use of Life Cocoon.
• If Rip Soul does spawn an add, make sure to focus healing into it in order to kill it.
• Use Paralysis on the Shades of Bargast when they spawn. Keeping them crown controlled will apply a stacking debuff that increases the damage they take.
• Mythic: After Bargast is killed, Sinseeker will cause players hit by it to spawn a Rip Soul add that needs to be healed up.

For more information, please refer to our Huntsman Altimor guide.

We advise you to use the following Legendary against Sun King's Salvation: Invoker's Delight.

• Make sure that you are the one to collect the orbs dropped by the Soul Infusers. These will apply a stack of Infuser's Boon which will increase your healing by 50% for 14 seconds. Make sure to refresh this buff before it falls off. Mistweaver Monks are ideal for this, because of our excellent single target throughput.
• Make sure to heal the essence fonts that are dropped by the Vile Occultists, as they will heal Kael'thas for 1% of his Health.

For more information, please refer to our Sun King's Salvation guide.

We advise you to use the following Legendary against Artificer Xy'Mox: Ancient Teachings of the Monastery.

• Leverage your mobility to quickly pick up a Seed of Extinction when they spawn, and use the Dimensional Tear to drop them off on the opposite side of the room from your raid.
• Chi Torpedo is recommended for this fight, as it basically negates both the Root of Extinction and Edge of Annihilation mechanics.

For more information, please refer to our Artificer Xy'Mox guide.

We advise you to use the following Legendary against Hungering Destroyer: Ancient Teachings of the Monastery.

• Make sure you are tracking Gluttonous Miasma on your raid frames as it prevents all healing done to the target. Absorbs still work, however, so be sure to use your Life Cocoon on anyone who might die.
• Make sure to top the raid off as much as possible before Expunge is cast, as it will reduce the radius of the circles it applies to your raiders.
• If you are caught out of position during the Consume cast, use Chi Torpedo to quickly escape the channel.

For more information, please refer to our Hungering Destroyer guide.

We advise you to use the following Legendary against Lady Inerva Darkvein: Ancient Teachings of the Monastery.

• Keep an eye on players afflicted with Shared Cognition as they will be taking additional damage.
• Placing Transcendence on the boss will allow you quickly reposition after using Chi Torpedo to soak Bottled Anima.
• Damage on this fight ramps up over time, so manage your Mana with that in mind.

For more information, please refer to our Lady Inerva Darkvein guide.

We advise you to use the following Legendary against The Council of Blood: Ancient Teachings of the Monastery.

• If a cast of Dreadbolt Volley manages to get off, use Revival to remove the DoT it applies
• Place Transcendence before the Danse Macabre in order to return quickly to the bosses after the dance is complete.
• Pay close attention to the raid's stacks of Oppressive Atmosphere; the longer a raid goes without killing a boss, the more damage the raid will take.

For more information, please refer to our The Council of Blood guide.

We advise you to use the following Legendary against Sludgefist: Ancient Teachings of the Monastery.

• Use Roll or Chi Torpedo to dodge Destructive Stomp
• Each time Sludgefist breaks a pillar, the raid will gain a stack of Crumbling Foundation, so be sure to keep your Mana bar healthy for the last 20% of the fight. It is important to make sure you have both your Celestial and Revival available for the ending of the fight.

For more information, please refer to our Sludgefist guide.

We advise you to use the following Legendary against Stone Legion Generals: Ancient Teachings of the Monastery.

• After dispelling Heart Rend be sure funnel healing into that target for the next 6 seconds. It can be wise to precast Enveloping Mist before instantly dispelling, as this will leave them in a prime position to receive follow up healing.
• Make sure your Transcendence is placed just in case Prince Renathal's Shattering Blast knocks you off the platform, you can swap back to safety.
• Try to make sure your cooldowns are up for the final phase.

For more information, please refer to our Stone Legion Generals guide.

We advise you to use the following Legendary against Sire Denathrius: Ancient Teachings of the Monastery.

• Pay close attention to players hit by Impale and Fatal Finesse. They will be taking extremely high damage, and will need solid healing to ensure their survival.
• Use Chi Torpedo or Transcendence to quickly reposition during March of the Penitent. This will allow you to take fewer cleaves during Phase One.
• Be sure Transcendence is always within range of you, just in case you are knocked into a bad position from Shattering Pain

For more information, please refer to our Sire Denathrius guide.
