Tanks taunt off of each other after each Überwältigen, as this also helps keep Wachsender Hunger stacks low.

Players with Gefräßiges Miasma are immune to all incoming healing from player spells. They can still be shielded.

At least 2-3 players should help soak a player who is afflicted with Gefräßiges Miasma. This should be increased if the player needs a lot of healing in a short time.

Healers should keep the raid topped when Verwüsten and Verschlingen is cast.

Players marked by Instabiler Ausstoß lines should spread to avoid hitting any player with more than one line, ideally hitting no other players with their line.

Spread out away from others when the raid is afflicted with Ausmerzen.

Move the boss to the edge of the room and run away from him when he casts Verschlingen.

Hungering Destroyer Abilities & StrategyWachsender HungerWachsender Hunger

Wachsender Hunger increases the damage of this leech effect by 8% per stack and will stack indefinitely until the boss hits a new target, at which point the stacks reset.

To keep incoming tank damage and boss health gain as low as possible, tanks should look to taunt often to keep the boss's Wachsender Hunger stacks to a minimum.

In theory, tanks could taunt as often as they want, but this will make the boss taunt immune pretty quickly. We recommend that you taunt around the 5 stack mark.

ÜberwältigenÜberwältigen

Tanks should look to have some form of damage reduction available for this hit.

This can be used as an opportunity to taunt swap off of one another, keeping Wachsender Hunger stacks low as well as ensuring that the tank who just get hit by Überwältigen doesn't die shortly afterwards.

Gefräßiges MiasmaGefräßiges Miasma

These 24 second long debuffs deal low shadow damage every second and make the target immune to incoming healing. This immunity does not apply to shielding spells.

The afflicted players will leech damage from anyone within 5 yards every second. This is the only way the debuffed players can receive direct non-shield healing during the debuff.

This debuff cannot be removed via immunities. The only known way of losing the debuff is by letting it expire.

It is important that players who have the Gefräßiges Miasma have at least 2 other players nearby as this is enough players to counteract the damage from the Gefräßiges Miasma debuff.

In order to gain health, the debuffed player will need at least 3 players to start healing at a reasonable rate. The more people that are added, the more healing they will receive.

We recommend that the raid is loosely spread around the encounter space. When the debuffs are applied, players can form small clumps around afflicted targets to keep them healthy.

If multiple debuffs are within a single clump, we recommend that one of those debuffs split off and find a new clump to join.

Form small clumps around players afflicted with Gefräßiges Miasma

This is far easier, however will lead to much more healing needing to be done as the raid will be taking more damage than necessary.

Additionally, in large raid sizes where the amount of debuffs are higher, this strategy may be detrimental, as the healers struggle to heal up 5-6 debuffs worth of damage.

This strategy also requires a good amount of awareness, as several abilities (such as Instabiler Ausstoß and Ausmerzen) require players to be spread within a short period of time, so use this at your own risk!

Stacking behind the boss with the debuffs is easy - but requires more healing and mechanic awareness!

Verwüsten Verwüsten

In isolation, this isn't very dangerous; however, it is frequently used in combination with other abilities.

Healers need to be prepared for these overlaps to ensure that players remain as healthy as possible.

Players should make sure that Gefräßiges Miasma targets are healthy before this damage occurs, and that they have sufficient nearby players to leech from to heal up from this damage.

Instabiler Ausstoß Instabiler Ausstoß

Moments later, each player will have a large line shot in their direction, dealing moderate shadow damage to any player in its path. This passes through the player and will only stop once it hits the wall.

Each player hit also gains a 40 second debuff increasing the damage from Instabiler Ausstoß by 500%.

As the ability is cast every ~30 seconds, this debuff serves not only to one shot any player who is hit by multiple Instabiler Ausstoß lines simultaneously, but also a player who is hit by the cast twice in a row.

Unmarked players should do everything within their power to avoid being hit by these casts, because if they are chosen randomly to be marked next time after being hit there is a very high chance they will die.

Players marked with Instabiler Ausstoß only have little blue arrows above their heads

When players begin to be marked, they need to move away from any Gefräßiges Miasma clumps they may be part of and then stand still.

All other players need to identify quickly where these marked targets are to make sure that they are not in the line between them and the boss.

Melee players need to be extra aware during this time, as the only indication that this ability is targeting a player is that they have a small arrow icon above their head, making it difficult to see from melee.

If a player is struggling to move from the path the ejection will take, they should instead simply take a single hit, rather than potentially moving around into a position where they may be hit by 2.

Note that players with Gefräßiges Miasma can be targeted by this. Their clump should move away from them for the hit and then stack back on them to help them leech back the health they just lost.

Spread the three Instabiler Ausstoß lines out from one another!

Ausmerzen

After 5 seconds, each player will take a moderate burst of shadow damage and will splash this damage onto any player nearby.

The radius of this splash damage is dependent on the players current percent health. The lower their current percent health, the larger the radius of the splash damage.

Healers should try and top the raid to full before this ability comes in as to reduce the movement needed to spread safely for this mechanic.

Likewise, clumps should do their best to top up their Gefräßiges Miasma player before this cast to make sure their radius is small and to ensure that they survive the mechanic.

As long as all players spread out quickly upon receiving the debuff, this ability is not very dangerous as the individual damage players take isn't too high.

Spread out from one another when Ausmerzen is cast.
The radius of the splash damage is tied to your current health!

VerschlingenVerschlingen

This 8 second long channel leeches a high amount of health off of all players every 2 seconds whilst dragging everyone towards to boss.

The closer you are to the boss during this channel, the more health the boss leeches from you.

Before the boss gains full energy, he should be dragged to the edge of the room and all players should be ready to generate a large amount of distance between themselves and the boss.

During this time, players will still be afflicted with Gefräßiges Miasma. It is important the nearby players stack on these debuffed targets as to ensure they survive the damage of the channel.

Healers should look to use at least one healing cooldown per Verschlingen as to help counteract this incoming damage.

Once the boss ends his channel, you should reposition the boss back towards the centre of the room to allow players sufficient space to spread for the Ausmerzen, Instabiler Ausstoß and Gefräßiges Miasma abilities.

Run away from the boss when Verschlingen is cast!

These orbs will remain in the encounter space until a player runs into them.

The orb explodes when touched, dealing a moderate burst of shadow damage and knocking back the triggering player.

These orbs are always the same size. They do not grow based on the current percentage health of the player afflicted with Ausmerzen.

Players place these orbs against the walls of the encounter space as cleanly as possible, whilst leaving a gap for players to run away from the boss when he casts Verschlingen.

This requires excellent coordination and positioning, as poorly placed orbs may lead to players running out of room and splashing damage onto others with their Ausmerzen debuffs.

Any poorly placed orbs can always be soaked by a healthy player who is not currently helping a Gefräßiges Miasma target. A good candidate for this job is the off-tank, assuming that they do not need to taunt at that time.

Have the group frequently soak the orbs, either using immunities or just by having healthy players occasionally soak and orb or two.

This reduces the need to place the orbs perfectly, making for a simpler strategy to execute.

Several classes are able to soak multiple orbs without taking damage by using immunities, such as Segen des Zauberschutzes, Gottesschild, Mantel der Schatten, Netherwandeln, Aspekt der Schildkröte etc.

The raid leader can simply ask players to soak these orbs on a rotation to keep the encounter space as clear as possible.

Additionally, players who are healthy after the Ausmerzen debuffs have expired can quickly soak their own orb before returning to their position. This only works if healers are comfortable that they will be able to cover the extra damage.

Mythic Hungering Destroyer in Castle NathriaEssenzentzugGefräßiges MiasmaEssenzentzug

This 20 second debuff increasing the damage taken from Gefräßiges Miasma by 15%, but it does not increase the healing the Gefräßiges Miasma target receives.

This debuff will not apply to the Gefräßiges Miasma target themselves, nor does it increase the damage they take from their own debuff. They can receive the debuff if they are soaking somebody else's debuff.

As the Gefräßiges Miasma debuffs are applied every 24 seconds, we recommend that players soak every other wave of Gefräßiges Miasma debuffs, as this will allow their Essenzentzug to expire between waves.

This requires a decent amount of improvised coordination, as the targets of Gefräßiges Miasma are randomly selected each wave.

Healers need to be aware that soaking players will be taking every increasing damage whilst soaking and healers must be prepared to top these players before large incoming raid damage.

Due to this change, the "stack all debuffs in melee and out-heal it" strategy does not work on mythic difficulty.

Instabiler Ausstoß Instabiler Ausstoß

This drastically increases the awareness and coordination needed to ensure that no player is hit by two or more Instabiler Ausstoß hits simultaneously.

As a precautionary measure, we recommend that all ranged players stand on one side of the boss in a semi-circle, whilst the melee are placed on the other side.

This helps reduce the chance that melee players will be accidentally clipped by multiple Instabiler Ausstoß hits at the same time.

Four players are marked for Instabiler Ausstoß on mythic difficulty!

In theory, tanks could taunt as often as they want, but this will make the boss taunt immune pretty quickly. We recommend that you taunt around the x-x stack mark.

Is this a typo? I know it is answered in the next section for Overwhelm, but this section isn't clear.

Kommentar von Bassemann

Does healing reduction effects like mortal strike affect the stacking leeching buff on the boss?
