Hey good! How are you doing with the new expansion? Today we want to bring you this guide on one of the new dungeons in Battle for Azeroth, Waycrest Mansion, in collaboration with our companions Yuki and Zashy. Let's get to the point!
Waycrest Mansion
Waycrest Mansion is one of the new dungeons that has been introduced alongside the new expansion for World of Warcraft Battle for Azeroth, a dungeon located north of Drustvar.
Waycrest Mansion, once the palatial estate of Drustvar's sovereign family, now serves as the center of dark rumors, ever since Lord and Lady Waycrest locked themselves inside without explanation. Among the locals there is talk of nefarious rituals, people disappearing at night and bloodcurdling screams coming out of the mansion. Of all these stories, only one thing is known for sure: something evil has taken hold in the lands of the Waycrest.
This dungeon has 5 different bosses and on Mythic difficulty and, unlike other dungeons, this one does not grant any mounts.
Before starting with the complete guide on this dungeon, we want to inform you that this guide is possible thanks to the collaboration with Yuki y zashi.
Here is the complete guide to Mansión Crestavía:
In this dungeon and unlike the rest, the paths will open in different ways so the route will never be the same.
Without further ado, let's get started with the bosses guide.
Heartsbane Triad
Heartsbane Triad is the first trio of bosses we will face first. These will remember the three witches of Hercules since they use a mechanic around the iris.
Each of these sisters, among the first to commit to the Heartsbane cause, has specialized in a form of magic. Now they are looking to get more power through their focusing iris.
Summary
The sister with the Focus Iris will gain energy and, when it reaches its maximum, will cast Dire Ritual. If one sister is dealt enough damage, she will drop the iris and another sister will pick it up.
Skills
Tips
-Tank
- You just have to tank the sister you have Focus iris.
- Damage must be dealt to players affected by Soul manipulation to break the spell.
- When empowered by the Focus iris, each sister uses her main attack solely against you.
-DPS
- Make sure you focus on the sister you have Focus iris.
- When you are under the influence of Unstable Runic Sign, get away from the group.
- Damage must be dealt to players who are under the effects of Soul manipulation.
- Healer
- All the Toothed nettles Sister Heather's will cause a painful injury to the target.
- When they don't wear the Focus iris, the witches will attack random members of the group.
Strategy
We will begin this encounter by attacking mainly the carrier of Focus iris. We can easily distinguish them since a dark iris will appear on the head of the affected thaumaturge, in addition to increasing its size considerably. This iris will empower the sister who maintains it, in addition to giving her energy to launch her abilities. This will be the only one that we can attack directly since the other two will obtain Ironbark Shield, reducing the damage they take by 99%. It is important to lower the sister who maintains the iris to 50% of health before it reaches 100% energy since, if we do not achieve it, we will receive a large amount of inevitable damage. By reducing the percentage of the sister's health boosted by Focus iris halfway through, she will exchange it to another of her sisters.
Sister Solena will use Soul discharge, an ability that we must interrupt since it inflicts large amounts of damage. With Soul manipulation, Solena will control an ally and we must attack him directly until he drops to 50% of life. Lastly, this sister will have Aura of apathy, reducing the healing we perform by 50%.
Sister Illness will use Ruinous discharge, a faculty that we must interrupt. Unstable Runic Sign will place a dispellable mark on a random allied player that will detonate when dispelled or after 5 seconds have elapsed, so the marked player must move away from the rest. Finally, when channeling Aura of terror, it will inflict damage to all of us in an area that will increase over time.
Sister Heather will use Bramble discharge, interruptible faculty. Toothed nettles will place a mark on a player, dealing damage over time. This mark will not disappear until the affected caster is healed above 90% health. And finally, Aura of thorns, redirecting part of the physical damage we inflict on you.

Goliath of Souls
Goliath of Souls is the second boss of this dungeon, located in the backyard of the mansion.
The goliath of souls is an amalgamation of the tortured souls of the people of Kul Tiras that it has devoured. Their tormented cries echo from within the monstrosity: a gloomy song of the fools who have crossed their path.
Summary
The Soul Goliar gains stacks of Soul Harvest periodically. Build-ups can be removed with Burning Brush.
Skills
Other targets during combat
Tips
-Tank
- To crush Deals high damage to a single target.
- Goliath of Souls damage increases over time due to Soul Harvest.
- Lead the goliath of souls to areas of Wild fire to reduce its damage increase.
-DPS
- Destroy the Soul thorns ASAP to free the impaled party member.

- Soul Harvest Increases the damage dealt by the Goliath of Souls, dealing heavy damage to the party.
- All the Soul thorns deal a large amount of physical damage to the impaled player.
- To crush launches a heavy blow against a single target, while Burning brush deal damage to everyone.
Strategy
With this boss, combat will also be simple but we must bear in mind that we must constantly change objectives. First of all, we must know that this will be loaded with Soul Harvest, increasing its damage by 5% every 2 seconds. When we reach a certain number of brands that we see that we cannot bear, we can use Burning brush to reset them, causing the boss to step over these areas of fire. When this happens, not only will we make the marks reset, but also the whole group will inevitably start taking fire damage in different ways, so we must calculate when is the right time to reset the boss's marks. . Some players will be marked by aimless souls, targeting players to melee them with the ability Burning fists, so we must move away to prevent receiving this extra damage. Ten seconds after a soul has been summoned, it will disappear.
Soul thorns It will root a random player and stun them, dealing damage over time. This thorn is an extra target that we must eliminate quickly to prevent the affected ally from receiving large amounts of damage.
Finally, it will channel To crush, inflicting large amounts of damage in the area around him, so we must move away from him.

Raal the Glutton
Raal the Glutton He is the third boss of this dungeon. We must be careful as it may seem that it is part of normal mobs and we can end up polishing by mistake, as with the areas, we must control them. I recommend cleaning the entire room before starting the meeting.
Raal the Glutton was once the chief leader of the Waycrest. Now his kitchen is a chamber of horrors where he has been serving parts of himself to the doomed guests who roam his halls.
Summary
Avoid taking too much damage from Raal's Soften ability, and don't let weakened servants reach Raal to prevent him from using Consume Servant.
Skills
Other objectives during the meeting
Tips
-Tank
- Dodge Soften whenever you can.
- Evita Putrid expulsion, both the releases and the patches it leaves behind.
- Slows and kills weakened servants it summons Call servant.
-DPS
- Dodge Soften whenever you can.
- Evita Putrid expulsion, both the releases and the patches it leaves behind.
- Slows and kills weakened servants it summons Call servant.
- Healer
- Players hit by Soften they will take a large spike of damage.
- Evita Putrid expulsion, both the releases and the patches it leaves behind.
Strategy
After having finished with all the enemies in the room, we will start the encounter against the boss Raal the Glutton, located in the center of the room near the wall. This will not move from the site so we will have to be the ones who dodge everything it throws at us. If there are no melee players, they will channel an ability, dealing damage to all allies.
Every now and then, Raal will summon a Putrid expulsion, leaving putrid green areas that will inflict damage on those who stay on them. In difficulties higher than Heroic, some Bile runny that, upon death, will mark an area around them and detonate after a few moments by the faculty Bile explosion.
Raal will channel Soften, making frontal attacks that will inflict large amounts of damage, areas that we must avoid. We will be able to know where it will launch them if we look at where the boss is looking when he is channeling it. Once this channel is finished, you will use the ability Call servant, invoking some Weakened servant that will go directly to Raal so we must kill them before this happens or it will be empowered.

Lord and Lady Waycrest
Continuing with one of the encounters that I have liked the most in all the dungeons, the duo Lord Waycrest y Lady Waycrest They are the next enemies that we will have to defeat. Counting on a rather curious mechanic, we can defeat them after having reduced health to a minimum of Lady Waycrest.
The pain caused by her husband's illness caused Lady Waycrest to invoke whatever power could save him. Gorak Tul answered her call and promised that death would never part them… for a price.
Summary
Lord Waycrest attacks the group directly, while Lady Waycrest assists him with her organ. When Lord Waycrest is defeated, Lady Waycrest uses Vitality Transfer to resurrect him at the cost of her own life. Upon reaching 10% of her health, Lady Waycrest joins the fight.
Skills
Tips
-Tank
- Putrid vitality Increases the damage of Lord Waycrest during combat.
- Move to dodge Jarring cadence.
-DPS
- Focus damage on Lord Waycrest until Lady Waycrest enters the fray.
- Stay away from your group to prevent it from spreading Virulent pathogen.
- Move to dodge Jarring cadence.
- Healer
- Move to dodge Jarring cadence.
- You can purify the members of the group of Virulent pathogen.
Strategy
In this encounter, we will fight directly against Lord Waycrest while Lady Waycrest will assist you from your organ.
Lord Waycrest will launch from time to time Strenuous blow, dealing damage over time to the hit player. This cannot be dispelled but the damage is not too high so we will not have problems when dealing with this ability. Virulent pathogen It will be another of the faculties that this launch, a faculty that we can dissipate. When dispelled or when the effect ends, it will explode, dealing damage in area and adding the pathogen to the affected players. In addition, this explosion will leave an area under the feet of the affected person, detonating after a couple of seconds. If another player or the same player who left the area is damaged by the explosion of this area, they will receive the pathogen and this mechanic will be reset. As we can see, if we are not cautious and try to avoid these areas in addition to moving away from those affected, it is possible that we end up spreading the pathogen more than we should. When Lord Waycrest reaches 10% of your maximum health, Lady Waycrest will use Transfer vitality, healing her husband completely but harming herself as payment for the transfer. This will do it up to three times. Once she reaches 10% health, lady will go to combat.
Lady Waycrest. for his part, he will use Jarring cadence, hitting the organ and filling the room with blue areas that we must dodge since these inflict a lot of damage.

Gorak Tulle
And as the last boss of this dungeon, Gorak Tulle He is prepared to defeat the intruders who have entered the mansion.
Gorak Tul and his bloodthirsty Drust were first defeated by an ancient order of Kul Tiran soldiers two thousand years ago. Locked in the Blighted Lands, Gorak Tul waited for the opportunity to exact revenge. Now Gorak Tul has corrupted Drustvar's seat of power, and his new followers are frantically plotting to free him from his prison.
Summary
Gorak Tul uses his magic to inflict increasing pain on his enemies using Darkened Lightning and Death Lens. Additionally, he summons deathtouch slavers from his kingdom. Deathtouch Slavers cannot be killed in any traditional way, and Dread Essence resurrects them. Alchemical Fire can be used to destroy them permanently.
Skills
Other targets during combat
Tips
-Tank
- Make sure to deal with any deathtouch slaver that Gorak Tul summons.
- Use Alchemical fire to destroy the corpses of the slavers touch death.
- Lens of death deals a large part of the player's maximum health as damage.
-DPS
- Avoid hitting you Darkened lightning keeping us apart.
- Use Alchemical fire to destroy the corpses of the slavers touch death.
- Lens of death deals a large part of the player's maximum health as damage.
- Healer
- Avoid hitting you Darkened lightning keeping us apart.
- Use Alchemical fire to destroy the corpses of the slavers touch death.
- Lens of death deals a large part of the player's maximum health as damage.
Strategy
Finally, we will finish the dungeon after defeating Gorak Tulle. This will constantly invoke Summon Deathtouch Slaver, invoking (as its name suggests), some Slaver touch death that we must kill quickly as it has very powerful abilities. The first one is Lens of death, marking an ally and stunning them to subsequently inflict up to 70% of their health. They will also use the faculty Dark jump that does not count with greater importance since the only thing they will do is jump from ally to ally, making it difficult for me to eliminate them.
Gorak Tulle will use the faculty Darkened lightning, an ability that we must interrupt whenever you channel it since it will do a lot of damage in addition to jumping to other players. Once it reaches 100% of its maximum energy, it will channel the ability Terrifying essence, damaging all players and resurrecting all Slaver touch death that we have eliminated with maximum health, in addition to eliminating any crowd control effects they had. To avoid this mechanic, the inquisitor will throw a bottle through which we must walk to obtain the ability Alchemical fire, easily distinguishable thanks to a golden area that will surround it. Once we obtain the ability and before reaching 100% energy (the boss), we will use the alchemy bottle to destroy the slavers that we had killed and are on the ground. By doing so, these will disappear.
