I didn't expect to be able to solo Hivemind this quickly after Il'gynoth. Thought I would get stuck grinding my Heart of Azeroth for another few weeks!
I managed to get the bosses down to 20%. My solution for pushing the last DPS was to keep a lot of the trash alive. The boss encounter itself will only get dangerous (damage taken wise) towards the end. With the
Custode dello Sciame Aqir add up they would constantly grant the smaller adds a 50% attack speed increase (
Tossina Rabbiosa). This lead to me being hit A LOT.
And how was this helpful?
Because of an old mechanic still present from Vanilla WoW, the 50% attack speed increase from parried attacks. This lead to my auto hit being 23M of the total damage done through the encounter. I pretty much did 2 auto hits a second (if not more).
This along with
Scudo del Vendicatore hitting both the bosses, I was able to get them down before the berserk kicks in at 15 minutes
I, however, only had 9 minutes of DPSing the boss since 6 minutes are spent in the wrong hivemind (all mobs receive 99% damage reduction (
Velo dell'Ombra))
Survival wise I had the
Analisi Traiettoria trinket from Mechagon (adds 27% dodge) as well as
Ultimo Difensore, and 3x
Baluardo della Luce.
Another important trait is the
Scudo Crescente. I had 3x of these to give me about 1.5k mastery to help with magic defense against the
Dardeggiatore Aqir. The flying adds did by far the most damage!
Total HPS were about 200k at the end of the encounter.
Tbh, I could have performed a bit better with my interrupts, but at least I managed the boss!
