Kyrian's Phial of Serenity Clears Necrotic Stacks in Mythic+

Necrotic can be a nasty affix for Tanks in Shadowlands Mythic+, but if you're a Kyrian Tank, you'll have an advantage in Mythic+ this week. The
Necrotic Wound
debuff counts as a Bleed effect so Kyrian's Phial of Serenity can remove Necrotic Stacks and Kleia's Soulbind can make you completely immune to Necrotic for 8 seconds!
In Shadowlands,
Necrotic Wound
stacks are a problem on certain trash pulls and bosses. While certain mobs have been exempt from triggering Bolstering or Bursting, no base dungeon mob seems to have been exempted from applying
Necrotic
. This means that for bosses like
Gorechop
or
Domina Venomblade
which also have adds on the encounter, Tanks will be unable to reset their
Necrotic Wound
leading to issues.
However, members of the Kyrian Covenant can use their
Phial of Serenity
to clear Necrotic stacks, giving a full reset and hopefully enough time to finish the boss encounter and even some trash pulls that are unable to be slowed this week due to the
Inspiring
affix.
The other ways to remove
Necrotic Wound
is for it to naturally time out or clear it using:
Blessing of Protection
or
Divine Shield
from a Paladin
Stoneform
from a Dwarf
by dropping Combat
Soulbind Traits that Help on Necrotic
Kyrian's can also take a couple of Soulbind Traits to make their
Phial of Serenity
more useful:
The
Pelagos Soulbind
offers
Focusing Mantra
to allow your Phial to be up more often.
The
Kleia Soulbind
offers
Ascendant Phial
to get 8 seconds of immunity to Necrotic stacks when you use your
Phial of Serenity
!
Kleia's
Ascendant Phial
is really cool and may be useful on certain pulls. Let your
Necrotic Wound
stacks build up, then clear them with a
Phial of Serenity
and be immune to more Necrotic stacks for 8 more stacks!

I've been pugging up to 13-14 and people haven't asked a single covenant in any of them yet, so please, quit this. Everyone knew certain covenants had advantages over the others in certain scenarios.
