Broodkeeper Diurna Strategy Guide
This is a two phase fight that’s about controlling add waves and destroying the eggs in the room before you’re able to defeat Diurna herself.
Broodkeeper Diurna Phase 1
In addition to dealing with Diurna, adds will constantly spawn. They need to be tanked, dealt with, andkept 50 yards away from Diurna. You will split your raid into two groups. One group will focus on the adds, the other on the boss.
The boss group will tank Diurna near clusters of eggs. Her Greatstaff is how you will destroy the eggs; being close enough to the staff gives you buff of extra damage done. It also gives you an extra action button that causes a beam to follow you around. The beam hurts a lot, so don’t get hit by it. Instead, have the beam hurt the eggs that are being targeted byRapid Incubation. If you don’t destroy the egg, an add spawns that will need to be dealt with. Once all the eggs in a cluster are destroyed, move Diurna to the next cluster and repeat the process. Tanks need to be mindful ofMortal Stoneclaws. The DOT and 65% Mortal Strike debuff is rough, but you shouldn’t need to tank swap. Just mitigate and use cooldowns.
Floating orbs indicate where adds will spawn. You will need to do everything you can to keep these adds50 yards away from Diurna. It’s important to make sure you’re staying on top of these, otherwise they will overwhelm the raid. Some of the adds have important things to consider:
Other things to consider during phase one:
Broodkeeper Diurna Phase 2
After five minutes, or all the eggs are destroyed, Phase Two Begins. If you still have eggs up, you’ll need to destroy them to kill the boss. This is a race to the finish as phase two acts as a soft enrage/DPS check. Continue to kite the beams into any remaining eggs and avoid Wildfire. Frozen Shroud is like Icy Shroud; dispel those affected and quickly heal the raid. When Diurna puts her staff in the ground, pulsing damage hits the raid; heal through it. Mortal Stoneclaws is also cast twice as often now, so a tank swap may be on the menu.
Kill her beforeBroodkeeper’s Fury, which gives her 15% extra damage every 30 seconds, kills you.
