The fight
Phase 1 · 0:00–3:36
Voidswarm opens portals that release a Venomous Hulk, Voidweavers and Bomber Beetles. Adds within 25 yards of Kith'ix take far less damage (
Commanding Presence), so they die away from the boss.
Extinguish hits the whole raid hard: grab a
Light's Embrace orb before it lands. On Heroic, the Hulk and Voidweavers drop eggs (Incubation). Each time Kith'ix reaches 100 energy the raid collapses into Liadrin's light for an intermission.
Phase 2 · 3:36–4:12
At 25% health Kith'ix goes into Phase 2 and any adds still alive die. Everyone gets
Luminous Grace (50% more damage) and the raid has about a minute: each
Eightfold Eclipse hits the raid hard, and the eighth one wipes it.
Null Gates spawn under a melee, a ranged and a healer and fire
Nullshards that stack
Nullify, which kills at five stacks on Heroic.
Negation lands on a tank, who swaps and runs into a
Null Gate within 8 seconds to close the gates nearby.
Your DPS compared with the raid iDPS over the whole attempt, the way the raid's meter counts it, so it includes any time after you died.

What each stat is worth to you now
Your stat values are on their way.
Crit is your spec's best stat, and it's only 31% of your secondary stats. Crit gives your attacks a chance to deal double damage, and your Mastery makes your diseases and minions crit harder. When two items are close, pick Crit.
Gear upgrades
Nothing to replace or upgrade; you wear none of the 2 most worn trinkets
Nothing to replace or upgrade: every slot is as high as its track goes, trinkets included.
