The Coven of Shivarra is the third to last boss encounter housed within Antorus, the Burning Throne.

Having proven themselves to be the most depraved and fanatical of all his followers, Sargeras entrusted the Coven with the unholy task of twisting the minds of the fallen Titans into an unstoppable Dark Pantheon.

Each sister employs her own signature brand of torture, eliciting screams which echo throughout the halls of Antorus. It is said that neither mortal nor demon can refuse their whispers, making it only a matter of time before the will of the Titans is broken.

The Coven of Shivarra is a council-style encounter, which features three unique bosses on Raid Finder, Normal, and Heroic. Only two of the three will engage the raid actively at any given time, while the third spends her time tormenting a Titan Soul which eventually results in the manifestation of dangerous spectral adds. While the Coven may not be as challenging as some of the bosses that came before, and certainly not as formidable as the remaining two Titans, they do present a respectable challenge for any raid group who has made it so far into the Burning Throne.

• Keep active Coven members at least 18 yards apart.
• Perform a taunt swap after 2 stacks of Fiery Strike.
• Perform a taunt swap after 5-9 stacks of Flashfreeze, depending on mobility.
• Use utility cooldowns to separate the Spectral Army of Norgannon.

• Provide surgical healing to targets afflicted with Fulminating Pulse.
• Pay special attention to the raid during Titans' Torment phases.

• Maintain DoT effects on both bosses, if your class is equipped to do so.
• Use utility cooldowns to separate the Spectral Army of Norgannon.

• Maintain a minimum 2-yard spread during the Torment of Golganneth.
• Get to a safe zone during Storm of Darkness.
• Avoid Whirling Sabers and stay away from players affected with Fulminating Pulse.

We advise you to use Bloodlust/ Heroism/ Time Warp as the encounter commences.
