Beast Mastery Hunter raid bosses guide

Legendary: Unity + Rylakstalker's Piercing

Covenant: Night Fae

Notes: This boss is AoE / Single target, but I would focus more on single target here. You can use Binding Shot during Exposed Core outside of the shield.

Legendary: Unity + Rylakstalker's Piercing

Covenant: Night Fae

Notes: This is an easy single target fight; just make sure you have the Feign Death conduit (Resilience of the Hunter) ready for Dust Blast if you are assigned to go out.

Legendary: Unity + Rylakstalker's Piercing

Covenant: Night Fae

Notes: Save cooldowns for the first set of adds (1st intermission) or the platform if you are doing the boss on mythic. The second pet from Animal Companion is bugging out when you go to the platform, and that is why I recommend playing with one pet on the platform and dismissing it before the next Glyph of Relocation.

You can use Aspect of the Turtle or Soulshape to dodge Genesis Rings.

Aspect of the Turtle might be also used for soaking bad positioned traps so that other players won't get trapped.

Legendary: Unity + Rylakstalker's Piercing

Covenant: Night Fae

Notes: You should aim to use your cooldowns for the add, or right before the add spawns, so it dies faster. Make sure to play Harmony of the Tortollan + Born To Be Wild so you can dodge Disintegration Halo by alternating Soulshape With Aspect of the Turtle.

1. Halo: Soulshape or Aspect of the Turtle
2. Haloes: Soulshape late or Aspect of the Turtle, both of them
3. Haloes: Soak the first one and then Soulshape the later 2 rings or Immune all 3 of them with Aspect of the Turtle

Legendary: Unity + Rylakstalker's Piercing

Covenant: Night Fae

Notes: You can immune the Hand of Destruction explosion in melee using Aspect of the Turtle to make more space for other players.

Legendary: Unity + Rylakstalker's Piercing

Covenant: Night Fae

Notes: You want to use your first cooldowns on the big add during the intermission and then again on the small adds during 2nd intermission and finally on boss after the intermission.

You can Freezing Trap the Acquisitions Automa, usually on mythic, you don't want to kill them at all. Use Feign Death conduit (Resilience of the Hunter) every Cosmic Shift.

Legendary: Unity + Rylakstalker's Piercing

Covenant: Venthyr

Notes: Try to use the Feign Death conduit (Resilience of the Hunter) every Earthbreaker Missiles; my general rule is to press it when there is 1 sec left on the timer for the Missiles.

If you are a bomb carrier, you can pick up the bomb with Aspect of the Turtle when you have the Charge Exposure debuff but make sure to drop it before Turtle goes off.

Legendary: Unity + Rylakstalker's Piercing

Covenant: Night Fae

Notes: I suggest playing Korayn with First Strike.

Use your cooldowns at the 1-minute mark, which means during the 1st Kingsmourne Hungers inside or not; by doing that, your following cooldowns lines up well for the entire fight.

You can use Freezing Trap on one of the Grim Reflections in phase 2.

In phase 3, you can use Aspect of the Turtle to immune the explosion from Hopelessness. That way you don’t have to clear at least one set of the debuffs.

Legendary: Unity + Rylakstalker's Piercing

Covenant: Night Fae

Notes: Use your cooldowns on every Swarm of Decay and utilize your Feign Death conduit (Resilience of the Hunter) for damage reduction. At the end of the fight, you can trap the Manifest Shadows to reduce some of the AoE damage.

Legendary: Unity + Rylakstalker's Piercing

Covenant: Night Fae

Notes: You can soak the Cosmic Core with Aspect of the Turtle. Wild Spirits can cleave Collapsing Quasar of the boss when they are close enough.

Legendary: Unity + Rylakstalker's Piercing

Covenant: Night Fae

Notes: Use Binding Shot om mind controlled players.

You can use Aspect of the Turtle to immune Chains of Eternity and Hungering Mist.

Make sure to not use Wild Spirits or Resonating Arrow right before Hungering Mist because the boss changes position a bit.

Optimal DPS powers: Potent Acid Gland, Huddled Carvings, Erratic Howler

Remember that the boss phases at 66% and 33%. So, don't use Wild Spirits or Resonating Arrow right before that. Try to cleave the add when it is up.

You can use Aspect of the Turtle to immune Arthura's Crushing Gaze, Brynja's Mournful Dirge, Daschla's Mighty Impact.

Do not use any cooldowns when Annhylde's Bright Aegis is about to be cast.

You can use Aspect of the Turtle to immune Shatter and Malevolence.

Make sure you have Disengage ready for Malevolence in case you get knocked off the platform.

You can use Aspect of the Turtle to immune Unleashed Tyranny and Torment.

Use Binding Shot to root Agonizers.

You can use Aspect of the Turtle to dodge Spiked Balls, Shadowsteel Embers, Spiked and also Cruciform Axe, Reverberating Hammer, Dualblade Scythe.

If struggling with movement speed during the intermission you can use Trailblazer.

Hold your 2nd use of full CD’s in P1 and P2 to have them ready for the Shadowsteel Horror adds spawning at the end of both Intermissions.

You can use Aspect of the Turtle to immune Disintegration, Purging Protocol and Obliterate.

You can use Aspect of the Turtle to immune Fated Conjunction, Fate Fragment (small orb) and Exposed Threads of Fate (mythic only).

You can use Aspect of the Turtle to immune Frost Blast and the explosion from Frost Spikes.

Use your cooldowns each intermission and focus Abomination adds.

Make sure to focus on the chains during Phase 1.

Use Binding Shot to root Dark Sentinels (Mythic only).

Save Disengage or Aspect of the Cheetah to dodge Veil of Darkness in Phase 2.

You can use Aspect of the Turtle to immune Wailing Arrow, and direct damage from Veil of Darkness or Domination Chains.

On mythic difficulty use Aspect of the Turtle right before activation of the Domination Chains (INTERMISSION SET) by doing that you are deflecting the dot from the stacks of chain and it’s easier to heal the raid.

Make sure you position yourself to get the furthest chain.

If you play for boss damage use CDs on every boss burn or you can just use them on cooldown.

Conduits and Legendary: Rylakstalker’s Piercing Fangs + Spirit Attunement + Niya’s Tools: Burrs

Make sure to extend your Frenzy right before Earsplitting Shriek.

You want to look out for Blood Shroud which makes this boss go immune. Don’t use any long cooldowns right before, as you won’t have them after the intermission for some time.

Conduits and Legendary: Rylakstalker’s Piercing Fangs + Spirit Attunement + Niya’s Tools: Burrs

Barghast spawns Shades of Barghast. You will want to CC them with either Freezing Trap or any other CC from your raid members as the adds gain Destabilize stacks. You can also fear the adds with Scare Beast in case someone breaks the cc.

You can immune Sinseeker with Aspect of the Turtle.

Conduits and Legendary: Rylakstalker’s Piercing Fangs + Spirit Attunement + Niya’s Tools: Burrs

Don’t use any big cooldowns when the boss is around 60% health. High focus on Dutiful Attendant when they spawn.

Conduits and Legendary: Rylakstalker’s Piercing Fangs + Spirit Attunement + Niya’s Tools: Burrs

Whenever Sludgefist reaches 100 energy he will target a player and charge in their direction. This player will want to get behind a pillar so the boss smashes into it. When Sludgefist smashes into the pillar he gains Destructive Impact which makes him take 100% more damage for 12 seconds. You will want to line up your cooldowns for when he is vulnerable as it really makes a difference. After the 2nd/3rd pillar you want to use Aspect of the Turtle to dodge Chain Slam + Chain Bleed + Colossal Roar after that you can cancel Turtle and keep doing damage.

1st Pillar: Bloodshed + Bestial Wrath

2nd Pillar: Bloodshed + Aspect of the Wild + Wild Spirits + Bestial Wrath

3rd Pillar: Bloodshed + Bestial Wrath

4th Pillar: Bloodshed + Aspect of the Wild + Wild Spirits + Bestial Wrath + Potion of Spectral Agility

Conduits and Legendary: Rylakstalker’s Piercing Fangs + Spirit Attunement + Bloodletting or One With the Beast

You want to save Disengage for Wicked Blade as you don’t want to be near the raid so they don’t get hit by it. You can use Disengage or Soulshape after the Shattering Blast knockback to get back on the arena.

Use Aspect of the Turtle when you are targeted by Wicked Blade and Soultaint Effigy is present, Aspect of the Turtle can also reflect Heart Hemorrhage from dispelling Heart Rend.

Talents: You could also use Killer Instinct if going for full damage into boss with execute.

Conduits and Legendary: Rylakstalker’s Piercing Fangs + Spirit Attunement + Niya’s Tools: Burrs

You can make the Intermission with 3 stacks or less of Burden of Sin, but with 3 you will need some extra movement speed like Soulshape or Stampeding Roar right before.

Remember that you cannot immune Massacre, however you can dodge Smoldering Ire and Shattering Pain.
