Bastion of Twilight All Bosses Strategies

In Bastion of Twilight Normal mode there are four bosses, and in Heroic mode there are five. The table below contains a brief overview of each boss in the raid, general information about the fight, tactics, and specific mechanics that will help you defeat all the bosses in Bastion of Twilight.

BossOverviewSpecial AbilitiesStrategy
Bastion of Twilight Guide
Halfus Wyrmbreaker
Halfus Wyrmbreaker is the first boss in The Bastion of Twilight raid, known for enslaving Drakes to enhance his power. He is surrounded by five Drakes, with three randomly chosen each week to give him buffs, affecting the encounter’s difficulty and requiring strategic adjustments. On Heroic Difficulty, all five Drakes are active. Releasing a Drake debuffs Halfus but makes the Drake hostile, and defeating it boosts your damage against him, helping to manage his high HP and 6-minute enrage timer.Malevolent Strikes
Frenzied Assault
Shadow Nova
Furious Roar
Scorching Breath
Fireball Barrage
1. Maintain one tank on Halfus and the second tank on the released Drakes.
2. Taunt swap Halfus at 8 stacks if Slate Dragon is active.
3. Use two Drakes right away to avoid the enrage timer.
4. Suggest to kill two Drakes to handle the tank stacks.
5. Get ready for Furious Roar when the boss is at 50% health, ready with your raid-wide stun cooldowns and heals.
6. Interrupt Shadow Nova if Storm Rider is active.
7. Counter Shadow Nova using abilities.
8. On Heroic, free all Drakes at the beginning and just nuke them down as a team.
Bastion of Twilight Guide
Valiona and Theralion
Valiona & Theralion is the second encounter in The Bastion of Twilight raid. You’ll battle one sibling on the ground while the other attacks from the air, swapping roles every 2 minutes and gaining new abilities.

Blackout
Devouring Flames
Twilight Meteorite
Deep Breath
Theralion:
Engulfing Magic
Fabulous Flames
Twilight Blast
Dazzling Destruction
1. Move out around the boss to deal with Blackout and Devouring Flames.

3. Stack up during dragon swap to ensure that you are ready to deal with Void Zones.
4. Control the effects of Engulfing Magic and Twilight Meteorite debuffs as follows.
5. Dealing with Deep Breath mechanics is possible by moving away from the area that is affected by it.
6. On Heroic, focus on Twilight Sentry and Twilight Shift DoTs, engaging in the Sentries while a DPS and a healer should clear them while not stacking too much DoT.

Cho’gall
Cho’gall is the ultimate encounter in The Bastion of Twilight raid on Normal difficulty. As the final boss, he presents one of the toughest challenges in Phase 1.

Bastion of Twilight Guide
Sinestra
Sinestra, the mother of Nefarian and Onyxia, is a bonus encounter in The Bastion of Twilight raid, available only after defeating all previous bosses on Heroic difficulty.
