How to use this guide

First, read the raid change history and boss's TL; DR. Cards separate core tactics, role responsibilities and only source-verified tuning changes.

The target version is Retail Midnight on August 19, 2026. Hotfixes can change the numbers, but there's no substitute for guesswork in how the mechanics work.

In Sporefall Midnight chronological raid order

The single boss raid in the Revelations update focuses on fungal-adds' death spots, interrupts and increasing raid damage. Mythic is exceptionally flexible for 15-25 players.

For raid lead: Choose a difficulty level, check the live Adventure Journal and assign each boss's special responsibilities before the pull.

TL;DR: Kill fungal-adds in agreed places before Fungal Bloom and change tank from Putrid Fist. Mark separate adds' kill slots before the pull Focus Sporecap and interrupt Poison Burst; kill other adds before Bloom Spread Vines targets, change tank from each Fist and use raid cooldowns for end stacks

Raid priorities

  • Mark separate adds' kill spots before the pull.
  • Focus Sporecap and interrupt Poison Burst; kill other adds before Bloom.
  • Spread Vines targets, re-tank every Fist, and use raid cooldowns on end stacks.
Before the pull
  • Share the tanking, healing and damage responsibilities of the Rotmire encounter before the pull.
  • Mark movement, soak and add points: Awaken Fungi spawns, Sporecap's Poison Burst, Fungal Bloom heals, Festering Vines is left, Bursting Pustules grows.
  • Check the difficulty Adventure Journal and the latest hotfixes, as Retail tuning may change weekly.
  • Agree on Bloodlust/Heroism and raid and personal defensive windows.

Role notes

Tanks

  • Keep the boss direction and dangerous adds out of the raid; change by tank buff or energy cycle.
  • Announce taunts, movement and big defensives to healers in advance.

Healers

  • Distribute dispels, target healing and raid cooldowns before the pull.
  • Prepare for predictable raid damage with energy, mid phase or add wave.

Melee DPS

  • Avoid the front cones and keep the movement path even in a tight cleave.
  • Switch to priority add right from the call; uptime does not override soak or dodge responsibility.

Ranged DPS

  • Spread in a controlled manner and take care of orbits, adds and targets that spawn in the distance.
  • Leave the permanent areas on the edge marked by the raid lead.

raid utility

  • Agree is interrupt, dispel, stun, slow, grip and immunity rotations.
  • Only use combat Resurrection if the roleplay of the next mandatory mechanic is otherwise broken.

Nerfs: what changed

  • Read the boss-specific change along with the updated Sporefall raid timeline.
  • A separate verified number nerf is not claimed without a hotfix or patch source from Blizzard.
  • Launch, bug fixing, flex scaling and actual tuning changes are kept separate.
