The Desolate Host
Last wiki revision 2023-04-19
The Desolate Host is a boss encounter in Tomb of Sargeras.
- Once, this was a sacred burial site for the Night Elves, but the Legion has twisted these grounds with the Engine of Souls. This foul machine draws upon the energy of the dead, twisting them into abominations. Due to this corruption, these tormented spirits have become monstrosities, looking to feed on any who descend into the tomb's depths.
The Engine of Souls exists within the corporeal realm while the corrupted soul of High Priestess Dejahna controls the Spirit Realm. Both share health and call upon the spirits and the undead to serve the Legion. At 30% health remaining, the Engine of Souls lurches forward and ejects The Desolate Host, a fearsome amalgamation of the corrupted dead. In Mythic difficulty, players are only able to voluntarily switch realms while under 50% health.

- If afflicted with Soulbind, quickly move to another similarly afflicted player in the opposing realm.
