Survival Hunter DPS Battle of Dazar'alor Raid Guide — Dragonflight 10.2.5

This page will be a rough outline of the bosses and mechanics in the Battle for Dazar'alor raid. This page will focus primarily on how a Survival Hunter can optimize its performance on the raid bosses in Battle for Dazar'alor, and not on an actual raid strategy for the bosses. Initially, this page will focus on Heroic mode and lower, however, as more bosses are being killed on Mythic, the guide will also include optimizations for Mythic bosses.

Survival Hunters excel in burst damage scenarios, making it useful for a lot of bosses in this tier. It suffers from cleaving a low amount of targets, however, which hurts it on many bosses as well.

This encounter is moderately movement-heavy but for the most part it is pure single-target, so we recommend the usual spec.

• Any add that has the Judgment: Righteousness buff from when the previous phase ended.
• The rest can be cleaved down.

Note: This boss is the second boss for Horde players, and the third boss for Alliance players. For the second Alliance boss (Jadefire Masters), see further below.

From a Hunter perspective, there is not much to say about this fight yet.

The Apetagonizer 3000 add spawns after 15 seconds, and then every minute after that.

For this boss, we will refer to Grimfang/Mestrah as "Monk", and Firecaller/Flamefist as "Mage".

The optimal strategy will most likely involve having the Monk boss at a lower health percentage than the Mage boss in this encounter.

As Survival, you should be attacking the boss that needs the most damage in that moment (which will sometimes be the Mage, due to its Fire Shield ability).
