How to Beat Azshara in World of Warcraft

Do you need to beat Azshara in World of Warcraft?

Well of Eternity is a heroic dungeon in the Caverns of Time in World of Warcraft. It was released in Patch 4.3.0 as part of the progression against Deathwing. The second part is set in the pre-Sundering Kalimador time, more than ten thousand years ago during the Burning Legion’s invasion of Azeroth. 

Players must go there to get the Dragon Soul and escort Thrall to deliver it to the Aspects at Wyrmrest Temple. 

In this dungeon, Queen Azshara will appear as the second boss. This is a four-phase encounter with two intermissions. The entire fight mainly revolves around keeping the Ancient Wards powered, or your whole group will start taking damage. 

Eventually, a Catastrophic Failure will occur once the Ancient Wards don’t receive enough energy and will basically wipe the entire raid. 

To avoid this, we’ve decided to extend a helping hand. 

In this guide, we will show you the best strategy to beat Queen Azshara in World of Warcraft. 

Let’s dive right in!

General Strategy and Gameplay

1st Phase

In the initial phase of this encounter, you should move the mini-bosses in or out of the line of sight when they attempt to cast Painful Memories or Longing. The raid should also avoid standing within the Cursed Heart pools left by the mini-bosses. 

Assigned tanks should alternate taunting each mini-boss when they get three stacks of Cold Blast. 

Ensure that you interrupt Aethanels when they cast Chain Lightning and dodge their Lightning Orbs. You also have to ensure that no other player is between you and Cyranus when he casts Charged Spear. 

Raid members should also stand within the Arcane Orbs to reduce their energy and keep them from exploding. Ranged players should move to the edge when Beckon is cast and kill any bubbles to free players from them.

Finally, try to control the Overzealous Hulk and kill it as soon as possible. 

Intermission 1/2

Be sure to soak the Arcane Orbs as long as it doesn’t go against your assigned degree. Raid members should also not forget to follow the decree assigned to them.

• Suffer! – Soak an Arcane Orb.
• Obey! – Don’t soak an Arcane Orb. 
• Stand Together! – Stay close to another player.
• Stand Alone! – Don’t go near another player. 

2nd Phase

For the 2nd phase of Queen Azshara’s encounter, tanks should taunt off one another to keep the stacks of Arcane Vulnerability to a minimum. They should also position Azshara next to an Ancient Ward and keep it energized to counter her Titanic Machinations. 

Range players should stay 35-40 yards away when they get marked with Beckon to avoid getting mind-controlled. When you get affected by Arcane Burst, hide behind a pillar or titan console to avoid hitting the entire raid when the debuff expires. 

Get out of Azshara’s line of sight when she starts casting Arcane Detonation to avoid getting hit. 

Lastly, crowd control and slow down ADS before they reach the Ward of Power. 

3rd Phase

The raid should spread at least 8 yards away from each other if marked with Beckon to avoid getting Jealousy. You should also move away from others when you get afflicted by Static Shock. 

Raid members should also interrupt the Tidemistresses’ Chain Lightning and eliminate them as soon as possible. 

Finally, remove the Crystalline Shield from Tidemistresses by hitting them with Charged Spears. 

4th Phase

For the last phase of this encounter, the ranged players of the group should stand away from the Titan Console and Ancient wards to lure the Nether Portal zones in decent locations. Players should also avoid standing in the Piercing Gaze beam coming from the orange eye at the edge of the room. 

Tank players need to taunt off each other once their Void Touched stacks decrease. The raid should also remove energy charges from the Titan Console in a staggered way to avoid getting wiped by Massive Energy Spike.
