Mythic DifficultyWeapons UpgradeRuinerRuination

This causes multiple Annihilation zones to appear each time Ruiner is cast.

These need to be soaked before they detonate, otherwise the raid will be subjected to the damage from Ruination Blast, likely wiping them.

Weapons Upgrade

Move away from others when afflicted with Reverberating Decimation!

Reverberating StrikeReverberating Decimation

This causes multiple members of the raid to receive the Reverberating Decimation debuff each time Reverberating Strike is cast. When the debuff expires it deals heavy splash damage to all players within 10 yards.

Players need to move 10 yards away from other players if they receive the Reverberating Decimation debuff to ensure that multiple splash damages don't instantly kill somebody.

Reverberating DecimationDiabolic BombDemolished

This causes the entire raid to become debuffed when Diabolic Bomb is detonated, increasing the shadow damage taken by 100% for 6 seconds.

Tanks should allow the debuff to drop in between each orb soak, as soaking two orbs in quick succession will likely cause a player to die due to the increased damage taken unless large damage reductions or healing cooldowns are used.

OverchargePhase Two

Assign half the raid to the Annihilator and the other half to the Demolisher!

This will empower the boss with Demolished in the first phase two, followed by a stack of Overcharge from each of the next two or three add phases.

Although this sounds dangerous, the Overcharge upgrade is generally considered to be a better Weapons Upgrade for the boss to gain over the Demolished or Ruination upgrades, as the strategy can remain the same throughout the entire fight.

To achieve this, all DPS should save cooldowns for each of the add phases which are each spaced apart by 2 minutes.

1 Tank 2 Healers and 7 DPS should be assigned to the Annihilator, which always spawn in the eastern area. The rest of the raid should be assigned to the Northern area where the Demolisher spawns.

Once their adds have been killed, they should move over to the Southern area to kill off the Decimator.

Initializing

This will allow you to take advantage of the extra damage the adds are taking via Initializing.

The players you send over should be classes that are able to survive the phase without a healer, as the healers should remain with their assigned groups at one of the two other adds.

The classes that can typically survive phase two without healing are Demon Hunters, Affliction Warlocks or Rogues.

DPS Cooldowns

Add Phase 1: Use prolonged power potions on the pull whilst saving cooldowns. The prolonged power buff will still be active for a good chunk of time during this first add phase.

Add Phase 2: Use your second prolonged power potions, as well as any cooldowns that are available. This is likely to be the phase that takes the longest, as three minute cooldowns are not available.

Add Phase 3: Have all players save cooldowns, especially those who use three minute cooldowns. With all cooldowns available to the raid during this phase, the adds are likely to die quickly.

Add Phase 4: Use Bloodlust and all remaining cooldowns. With bloodlust the adds will die incredibly quickly, leading to one of the easier add phases.

This helps create additional "drop off" distance for when the orbs are soaked.

Overcharge

This is most important when Reverberating Decimation debuffs have just been applied to the raid. Tanks may wish to wait out the debuffs before soaking any nearby orbs.

Tanks should also avoid soaking orbs during phase two, as the incoming raid damage is already very high.

The raid needs to pay extra attention to the orbs during this phase, especially when traveling from one add to another, as it is unlikely that the raid will survive an unexpected explosion during phase two.
