Survival Hunter DPS Nerub-ar Palace Raid Guide — The War Within (11.0.7)

• You may want to defensive if you are at low HP when Hungering Bellows happens.
• The DoT that you get from collecting bugs to feed Ulgrax can hurt, prepare a defensive if you are doing multiple.

• It is not generally worth using CD's on the Add Phase unless you are attempting to parse. Simply use cooldowns on pull, and then again when the boss returns.

• Use Disengage to counter the pull of Carnivorous Contest.
• Save Aspect of the Cheetah for when you are feeding Bugs to Ulgrax to do so as quickly as possible.

I recommend a single-target build on this encounter.

• Consider using a defensive if you are at low HP when Bloodcurdle happens, or if you are about to go down via Gruesome Disgorge.

• I do not recommend using cooldowns on the add waves if you do not have to. Try to use your cooldowns as they come up on the boss.

• You can Aspect of the Turtle to bypass Spewing Hemorrhage, but do not rely on this, it is a crutch if you get in trouble.

• As you run to place your Simulacrum, you may want to use a defensive if you are at low HP, since you may be running out of Healer range, and if you are not, they are probably busy running as well.

• On cooldown.

• You can Feign Death if you are the first person in the Phase Blades charge order to prevent the mechanic from spawning any Simulacrums entirely.

• If you are low on HP as Erosive Spray is going out, consider using a defensive.

• You can Disengage to more quickly break Spinneret's Strands.
• Binding Shot + Implosive Trap can be a good combo for add CC if they are grouped up.
• Disengage to counter the pull by Web Reave.
• Mythic: It might be possible to jump off the platform when Enveloping Webs are about to expire to drop the Web off the platform, and then Disengage back. Live testing pending for this tip.

• Nothing specific.

• It is not obvious, pre-launch, what the best strategy is here. It will depend on the tuning of the adds and whether they are dying in a timely fashion. As a default, use cooldowns on the boss, but you may want to change this strategy.

• Use Binding Shot and Tar Trap liberally for the Parasites. Consider speccing Entrapment for further CC.
• Disengage breaks Sticky Web. Make sure you are not near anyone else when you do so, or they will get Webbed too!

I recommend our "Raid AoE" build for this encounter, grabbing essential bits of AoE kit while retaining 95% of our full single-target potential.

• Nothing specific here. Use defensives primarily to cover for mistakes, and if you are at low HP when placing your Images.

• On cooldown.

• Disengage to counter the Nether Rift pull.
• Note that the Starless Night pizza slice mechanic is very easy to dodge once you realize that the pizza slices are pre-drawn on the ground. You should only ever have to walk a single step to side-step them.

• There are no special moments where defensives are always required, but Phase 2 is dangerous and there will not be a lot of Healers on your side. Using Survival of the Fittest around 4:30 to mitigate Gloom Blast is generally optimal.

• On cooldown, while ensuring you are getting full duration value out of every use. Depending on your group, Phase 2 adds may die so quickly that it does not make sense to use cooldowns on them.

• You can both Feign Death and Disengage Roots in Phase 1. You can also Aspect of the Turtle their application
• Binding Shot on the adds spawned by Infest in Phase 3.
