Hero Talents
Vengeance Demon Hunter
- For average Mythic+ I'd normally recommend Fel-Scarred, since it is very easy to play and has a low skill ceiling. However, for higher level keys Aldrachi Reaver is much stronger as it gives an insane amount of healing, damage reduction, and damage. Additionally, Incorruptible Spirits interaction with Versatility, as well as the amount of Soul Fragments you consume make you almost immortal in its current state.
Aldrachi Reaver
Fel-Scarred
- Consuming 20 Soul Fragments or casting The Hunt converts your next Throw Glaive into Reaver's Glaive.
- This enhances your next Shear / Fracture and Soul Cleave. The enhanced ability you cast first deals 10% increased damage, and the second deals 20% increased damage.
- Quite simply casting Shear / Fracture > Soul Cleave is the priority of empowerments after using Reaver's Glaive.
- The second enhanced ability from using Reaver's Glaive shatters an additional Soul Fragment through Aldrachi Tactics, this allows you to get Reaver's Glaive back faster by consuming more Soul Fragment.
- Reaver's Mark is a debuff that causes the target to take 7% increased damage for 20 seconds from an enhanced Shear / Fracture from Reaver's Glaive.
- If cast after Soul Cleave, Reaver's Mark is increased to 14%.
- Reaver's Mark also stacks and can be increased from 7% to 14% by doing a second set of empowerments starting with Shear / Fracture > Soul Cleave.
- Additionally while Reaver's Mark is up, Wounded Quarry gives your melee attacks additional damage and has a chance to shatter a Soul Fragment.
- Unhindered Assault gives Vengeful Retreat a way of generating Fury as it resets the cooldown of Felblade.
- Incorruptible Spirit is extremely strong as it allows you to have incredible amounts of absorbs because you how many Soul Fragment you currently consume.
- Thrill of the Fight is a passive buff you get from consuming both enhancements from Reaver's Glaive that gives 15% increased attack speed for 20 seconds, as well as a 20% damage and healing increase for 10 seconds. The only important thing to note is that Wounded Quarry benefits a lot in Soul Fragment from Thrill of the Fight.
- Metamorphosis becomes a huge DPS cooldown with Fel-Scarred due to Demonsurge and all of the abilities that are empowered because of it.
- While Metamorphosis is active Soul Cleave and Spirit Bomb become empowered. Additionally, with Demonic Intensity, Fel Devastation, Immolation Aura and Sigil of Flame also become empowered dealing more damage.
- After casting Metamorphosis or Demonic through Fel Devastation, the first cast of each empowered ability creates an explosion of Fel energy that does damage around you to nearby enemies.
- Due to Demonic Intensity this damage is increased by 10% for each time you use an empowered ability while Metamorphosis is active.
- Casting Metamorphosis and Fel Devastation off cooldown almost becomes very important as all the empowered abilities do a lot of damage, especially Sigil of Flame in AoE.
- When you activate Metamorphosis, the cooldowns of Fel Devastation and Sigil of Flame are reset.
- Sigil of Flame applies Student of Suffering which gives you a decent chunk of Mastery and grants 5 Fury every 2 seconds for 8 seconds. Keep this buff up as much as possible as it grants a good amount of damage, especially in AoE.
- Wave of Debilitation is a good option for Mythic+ as it allows for kiting opportunities after Chaos Nova ends as well as a small survivability gain as it decreases cast speed by 15% for 5 seconds after the stun fades.

Rotation
Vengeance Demon Hunter
Tier Set
- 2-Set: Soul Cleave deals 15% increased damage and has 35% chance to shatter Soul Fragments from a target it hits.
- 4-Set: Consuming a Soul Fragments increases the damage and healing of your next Fel Devastation by 2%, up to 30%.
The new Set synergizes very well with Aldrachi Reaver as it allows you to get Art of the Glaive very quickly since you generate and spend more Soul Fragments. However, the Set is also very nice as Fel-Scarred as it also buffs Fel Desolation damage and healing. Moreover, you have more Fel Devastation casts, because of resets from Demonic Intensity to make use of the 4-Set.
Single Target
Aldrachi Reaver
Fel-Scarred
Opener
Priority List
On Single Target, your goal is to generate as many Soul Fragments as possible so that you can cast Reaver's Glaive as often as possible. Aldrachi Reaver generates a lot more Soul Fragments than Fel-Scarred and allows you to cast Spirit Bomb more often with 5 Soul Fragments. Remember that it is better to waste Fury than to lose potential charges of Fracture. Also always cast Fracture into Soul Cleave after casting Reaver's Glaive. You want to press spells almost off cooldown and not let anything be wasted.
- Cast The Hunt off cooldown to trigger Art of the Glaive.
- Cast Reaver's Glaive off cooldown whenever it procs or from The Hunt.
- Cast Fracture as the first enhanced ability of Reaver's Glaive always.

AoE
Aldrachi Reaver
Fel-Scarred
Opener
The Opener for Aldrachi Reaver stays the same for single target and AoE currently but the priority changes.
Priority List
When AoEing you focus on generating as many Soul Fragments as possible to use Spirit Bomb as much as possible. Do not waste Soul Fragments and try to use Spirit Bomb at 4+ Soul Fragments. Additionally, press spells off cooldown as much as possible.
- Cast The Hunt off cooldown to trigger Art of the Glaive.

- Cast Fracture if you don't cap Soul Fragment or Fury.

Opener
The Opener for Fel-Scarred largely stays the same from Single Target, except for using Sigil of Doom a bit later in the opener to make use of Student of Suffering in AoE, which gives a lot of damage. Furthermore, Sigil of Doom hits like an absolute truck in AoE, so you want to use this ability carefully, to maximise damage.
Priority List
When AoEing you focus on generating as many Soul Fragments as possible to use Spirit Bomb as much as possible. Do not waste Soul Fragments and try to use Spirit Bomb at 4+ Soul Fragments. Additionally, press spells off cooldown as much as possible.

Defensive Cooldowns
- Metamorphosis
- Metamorphosis is your biggest defensive cooldown and you should learn to plan around Metamorphosis usage to have a smoother time mitigating incoming damage. With 2 points in Rush of Chaos, Metamorphosis can become a 2 minute cooldown making it usable considerably more often.
- Fiery Brand
- Fiery Brand debuffs the enemy to deal 40% reduced damage to you and is one of your most frequent defensive and offensive cooldowns. Normally, you want to use this spell on cooldown as it does very high damage, and can buff your other fire damage spells with Fiery Demise. However, hold this spell if there is a tank buster or mechanic that does a lot of damage and you need to save extra defensives to survive. With talents, it can be extended through Charred Flesh to last even longer than usual and have an additional charge as well as a shorter cooldown with Down in Flames.
- Fel Devastation
- Demonic allows for this spell to become exceptionally strong since it gives Metamorphosis which is Vengeance Demon Hunter's strongest defensive cooldown. You want to use this spell almost off cooldown and plan your other defensives around it. You should hold Fel Devastation if there is a tank buster coming.
- Sigil of Flame
- With Illuminated Sigils talented, Sigil of Flame becomes an important defensive cooldown. The 15% increased parry is very significant and is worth tracking Sigil of Flame debuff to make sure you know when it falls off.
- Darkness
- Darkness lasts 8 seconds and causes all damage you or an ally take while inside the darkness to have a 15% chance (30% in M+) of being negated completely. This is not great versus large single hits, but is good for lots of little hits, such as melee attacks. If you're not saving it for something in particular, you should go ahead and use it almost on cooldown because of the defensive benefits.
Offensive Cooldowns
- Sigil of Spite
- Sigil of Spite deals a moderate amount of damage and generates 3 Soul Fragment, allowing you to cast Spirit Bomb more frequently. Use on cooldown with ideally at least 3 stacks of Frailty.
- The Hunt
- A huge charge from 50 yards away, does big chaos damage and roots the target in place, applying a DoT that does additional chaos damage over 6 seconds up to 5 targets that were caught in the path of the charge. For maximum damage, you want to use this on cooldown with ideally at least 3 stacks of Frailty.
- With Aldrachi Reaver this ability becomes very strong, as it procs Reaver's Glaive granting a very large damage bonus, as well as Soul Fragment generation.
- Metamorphosis
- While you are in Metamorphosis during AoE, you want to Spirit Bomb at 3+ Soul Fragments instead of 4+. This is because every Fracture cast while you are in Metamorphosis gives you 3 Soul Fragments. Therefore, this allows you to:
- Fracture.
- Spirit Bomb.
- Fracture.
- Spirit Bomb.
- This makes Fracture an incredibly high priority during Metamorphosis.
- With Fel-Scarred, Metamorphosis becomes an insane DPS cooldown as it enhances many abilities and increases the base amount of damage the enhanced abilities do by a substantial amount.
- Moreover, it gives Demonsurge damage that does large AoE damage around you, that also ramps in damage, increasing with each empowered ability cast.
- While you are in Metamorphosis during AoE, you want to Spirit Bomb at 3+ Soul Fragments instead of 4+. This is because every Fracture cast while you are in Metamorphosis gives you 3 Soul Fragments. Therefore, this allows you to:
Deep Dive
Vengeance Demon Hunter
Sigils
- Sigils are Demon Hunter specific abilities that are placed on the ground and then have a delay of 2 seconds before having an effect within an 8-yard radius.
- Talenting into Quickened Sigils brings that delay down to 1 second.
- They generate 1 Soul Fragment with Soul Sigils.
- Demon Muzzle gives a small amount of Magic damage reduction.
- Chains of Anger increases the duration of your sigils by 2 seconds and their radius by 2 yards.
- Cycle of Binding grants you a 2-second cooldown reduction on all sigils when any sigil hits an enemy.
- Illuminated Sigils grants 1 extra charge to Sigil of Flame.
- Both Demon Muzzle and Cycle of Binding require you to affect a target with your Sigil. Therefore; Sigil of Silence, Sigil of Chains and Sigil of Misery used on a boss don't give you the benefits.
Cycling defensives on Vengeance Demon Hunter
- Vengeance Demon Hunter's active mitigation Demon Spikes has very low uptime, meaning that as Vengeance Demon Hunter you need to fill in the gaps with your other defensive cooldowns.
- Metamorphosis, Demonic, Fiery Brand and Illuminated Sigils (if talented) are the main defensives used for this.
- An example of this is to Fel Devastation when Demon Spikes is about to end and then waiting with your next Demon Spikes for when Metamorphosis has ended.
- For cycling defensives, while Demon Spikes is our most available active defensive, players should be trying to maximize the uptime of Metamorphosis > Fiery Brand > Demon Spikes in that order.
- This does mean that you end up overlapping and layering Demon Spikes with other defensives. The main goal is to make sure that you're not capping Demon Spikes charges either.
- This type of gameplay sets Vengeance Demon Hunter apart from other tanks since it needs to be done frequently in high-level content as taking damage with no defensive cooldown can spell disaster.
Frailty management
- Frailty is important to think about when managing DPS burst windows with The Hunt and Sigil of Spite.
- Your goal is to have as many stacks as possible by using Soul Cleave a lot, which through Soulcrush gives Frailty.
- Another important thing to note is that because of the talent Void Reaver, Frailty stacks are important to track because of the added damage reduction. This can be especially important for min-maxing defensive usage as with high Frailty stacks, you can forego other defensives or have fewer than normal.
- Remember that with Soulcrush, Frailty from all sources stacks and Soul Cleave applies an additional stack of Frailty to your primary target.
Understanding Mechanics
Rotational min-maxing is just one aspect of mastering a specialization, but there are numerous other key mechanics that influence your performance. Use the following guides to improve them.

Boss Tips
Avanoxx
- Alerting Shrill does a good amount of AoE damage and summons 4 eggs stacked in a corner of the room. These eggs hatch into Starved Crawler, who then cast Hunger and fixate on the other players in your group.
- Your goal is to keep the boss away from them because if Avanoxx gets close she eats them and gets a stack of Insatiable per Crawler eaten.
- The boss receiving any stack of Insatiable likely results in a wipe.
- Your goal is to keep the boss away from them because if Avanoxx gets close she eats them and gets a stack of Insatiable per Crawler eaten.
- Gossamer Onslaught spawns Vile Webbing under every player while being cast so stacking up with your group or melee friend is recommended to conserve space.
- Voracious Bite is the tank mechanic, hitting you for 3 strikes back to back inflicting a 50% damage taken increase per stack which ends up being a 150% damage taken increase for the following melee swings.
- Rotate Fiery Brand and Fel Devastation in order to mitigate effectively.
- Keep as much Frailty as possible for DR from Void Reaver.
Anub'zekt
- Impale is aimed at you while tanking the boss, resulting in a huge frontal cone that you can aim. You don't need to tank this mechanic but you need to aim it away from the team as best as possible.
- Burrow Charge
- The boss targets a player in your group and proceeds to go underground and charge that player, immediately afterwards he casts Impale so make sure to aim that frontal well.
- Infestation spawns a Ceaseless Swarm, just don't stand in it.
- During Eye of the Swarm the boss creates a zone in front of the boss that is a "safe space". It moves together with the bosses' facing, so you are responsible for moving the zone around.
- Impale is being cast during the phase making the "safe zone" even smaller. Make sure you aim it at either side of the safe zone and not in the middle.
- Throughout the fight Bloodstained Webmage spawn casting Silken Restraints at someone random during the fight.
- Make sure to drag the boss close to them to cleave them down.
Ki'katal the Harvester
- Cosmic Singularity requires you to stand in Grasping Blood while the cast is finishing.
- Outplay this mechanic with Infernal Strike but make sure you do not stand under the boss. Otherwise, you get the Faded debuff.
- Cultivated Poisons does a lot of damage to you while also shooting out waves to dodge when it expires.
- Use Fiery Brand or Metamorphosis to tank this debuff.

Boss Tips
Orator Krix'vizk
- Chains of Oppression creates a circle around the boss preventing anyone from moving more than 10 yards away from the boss. You are responsible for dragging the boss and the team around so keep that in mind.
- Subjugate is a big magical tank hit that reduces your movement speed by 30% for 10 seconds after being hit.
- Pre-use Fiery Brand or Fel Devastation to mitigate the damage and then use Vengeful Retreat to get rid of the Movement speed effect.

Stat Priority
Vengeance Demon Hunter
Understand your secondary stat priority and the tertiary stats needed for optimal performance during Mythic+ dungeons as a Vengeance Demon Hunter. For more detailed information, visit the Stats and Attributes guide.
Survivability
Damage
Higher Item level items are better in most scenarios. For an accurate representation of what item to equip you should use Simcraft! A static "Stat Priority" is just a starting point and can easily shift depending on your individual gear.
Reasons for Stats
Haste is always the most sought after Stat as it gives a high amount of damage, as well as cdr on Soul Fragment generating abilities and Demon Spikes, which gives a lot of survivability. In Mythic+ Critical Strike is usually very sought after as it increases your damage by a substantial amount and increases your parry, which when you are taking a lot of melee hits, equals a large amount of Damage Reduction. However, if you play Aldrachi Reaver I would recommend Versatility over Critical Strike for Survivability as it scales exponentially with Incorruptible Spirit, allowing for some insane absorbs currently.
All secondary stats are affected by diminishing returns. Click here to learn more!
Tertiary Stats
- Avoidance - Slightly reduces damage taken from area of effect attacks. This can be certain tank abilities a boss does, as well as trash. Starts diminishing returns heavily at 20% (2000), but it has no cap.
- Leech - Causes a player to instantly return health from both outgoing damage and outgoing heals. Health returned is equal to your amount of Leech. For Example; 1 % of Leech gives health equal to 1% of damage and healing done.
- Speed - Increases movement speed.
In conclusion, Leech is what you should go for as a tank in Mythic+ in order to min-max survivability as it gives you the greatest benefit in Mythic+ over the other two tertiary stats.

Trinkets
Below you can find active and passive alternatives to our recommended trinkets. Do note that some trinkets are better than others depending on the mythic+ dungeon.
Active Trinket alternatives
- Foul Behemoth's Chelicera
- Strong trinket for both defensive and offensive value.
- Ovi'nax's Mercurial Egg
- A trinket that grants mainstat while standing still and highest secondary when moving.
- 2minute on use with which you can walk around without losing the mainstat.
- Swarmlord's Authority
- Haste statstick, that gives a good all-around absorb on use every 1min.
- Due to having only haste as a stat, only recommended if the absorb is needed.
Passive Trinket alternatives
- Void Reaper's Contract
- Decent passive damage trinket that also does execute damage as well.
- Empowering Crystal of Anub'ikkaj
- RNG stat proc trinket.
- Bottled Flayedwing Toxin
- Best ST trinket as of rn for Vengeance Demon Hunter.
- Ceaseless Swarmgland
- Another passive trinket that does damage and provides little damage reduction.
Embellishments
- Adrenal Surge Clasp
- Provides good passive Agility for the loss of some mastery.
- Writhing Armor Banding
- Empowering your Adrenal Surge Clasp.
- On Wrists, Boots, Waist, or Cloak depending on your available gear.
Remaining Sparks
- Crafted items are 636 item level and regular items are 639 on max item level, therefore, it's a small loss to equip crafted items outside of your 2x embellishments unless you don't have access to other high item level gear on that slot.
Simcraft

Races
Vengeance Demon Hunter
In this section of the Vengeance Demon Hunter Mythic+ Guide, we showcase and explain how impactful certain racials can be in World of Warcraft. As a Demon Hunter, you only have access to 2 races.
- Arcane Torrent -- Blood Elf
- Strong racial to dispel or purge enemies, the value is very limited but sometimes can come in handy.
- Shadowmeld -- Night Elf
- Also one of the most potent racials in Mythic+ historically.
- Use-cases:
- Run past basically any mob and then cast Shadowmeld to make them reset. Even works on mobs that have stealth detection if you get enough distance before you Shadowmeld.
Recommendation
I would personally recommend Night Elf because of its' powerful use cases in Mythic+ which you always prefer to an AoE dispel.
