Reaping Flames can be incredibly useful on this fight. Using it on tentacles that are about to die will fully reset its cooldown and grant you the 100% bonus damage increase on your next cast. Always use this ability on enemies that are either about to die, or still above 80% HP.
Feint and Cloak of Shadows should be used on every cast of Entropic Crash. Using Cloak of Shadows while debuffed with Mutterings of Insanity will instantly remove the debuff, but stun everyone around you. Only use this if there is no one else inside your circle.
For more information, please refer to our Drest'agath guide.
Vexiona
We advise you to use the following essences against Vexiona.
- Major Slot

- Minor Slots

Tips
You can use Cloak of Shadows to remove Encroaching Shadows early. You will still drop a puddle beneath you, so make sure to do this far away from the rest of the raid. Cloak of Shadows also works against Heart of Darkness to completely mitigate the damage and fear.
Kidney Shot and Blind are useful to disrupt the Sinister Soulcarver adds spawned during the first phase. Interrupting their Spiteful Assault as soon as possible is of very high priority.
Mythic: Use Grappling Hook to quickly get away from the Enforcer adds that spawn on this difficulty. Cloak of Shadows does not work against her Twilight Decimator.
For more information, please refer to our Vexiona guide.

Mythic: Cloak of Shadows and Feint should be used to solo-soak the Void Collapse whenever possible. Do not use Crimson Vial when affected by Corrupted Existence, unless absolutely necessary.
