Adventure Guide[]
Called from the depths to retrieve three relics of ancient power, the Restless Cabal is bound to serve N'Zoth attend to his will. Zaxasj speaks of promises and power while Fa'thuul crushes the opposition with pure force.
Overview[]
Zaxasj the Speaker assails targets from range while Fa'thuul the Feared strikes his main target with powerful melee blows.
Whenever one of the members of The Restless Cabal loses 25% of their maximum health, they empower and activate the nearest Relic of Power.
Empowering a Relic of Power unleashes its full magic and also activates Visage from Beyond or Eldritch Revelation.
In LFR difficulty, Zaxasj and Fa'thuul ignore the Relics of Power they have already activated.
Damage Dealers[]
- Ensure only one ranged player receives Aphotic Blast from Zaxasj the Speaker to minimize its effects.
- Stagger interrupts on Witness the End to manage incoming damage.
- Destroy Visage from Beyond before it can cast Terrifying Echo.
Healers[]
- Manage stacks of Promises of Power, as higher stacks will make the target more vulnerable.
- Players are unable to be healed under the effects of Embrace of the Void, ensure health is high before it occurs!

Tanks[]
- Swap tanking Fa'thuul the Feared to ensure that Shear Mind does not stack too high.
- Position enemies within Custody of the Deep when the Trident of Deep Ocean is activated to deplete the shield.
- Ensure Fa'thuul the Feared is nearest to a Relic of Power he has not yet activated when his health nears 75%, 50%, or 25%.
