Raid - Midnight
The Voidspire
6 encounters, 146 boss abilities and 90 drops, with the Adventure Guide’s own ability and strategy notes for each fight. Every drop links to its item page; tradeable drops carry a live Auction House price.
From high above the Voidstorm, Xal'atath has gathered the Devouring Host beneath her dark banner. The towering Voidspire looms like a spear of darkness, a citadel guarded by an army of the void. The forces of the light - led by Alleria Windrunner and the Champions of Azeroth - must rally for one last desperate assault before all is lost.

Encounters
HHeroicMMythic
Imperator Averzian
Imperator Averzian wages a relentless campaign, seeking not conquest, but annihilation. His entire will is bent to a singular ambition: to rend the veil between worlds and carve a breach into the Void itself. Through this wound, his infinite host shall pour forth, drowning Azeroth in darkness.
Abilities & Strategy

Abilities & Strategy
Overview
Vorasius periodically strikes the ground with Shadowclaw Slam, creating crystals that divide the battlefield. The behemoth then shakes off parasitic creeps that explode in a Blisterburst upon death. As the battle rages, Vorasius sweeps his deadly Void Breath from one side of the battlefield to the other, decimating anything caught in its path.
