Raid guide · Patch 12.0.7 · Normal / Heroic / Mythic
Sporefall is a single-boss raid in Harandar (patch 12.0.7). Rotmire floods the room with fungal adds that fixate players. Your job is not to kill the boss fast — it is to kill adds in the right spots, interrupt Sporecaps on Heroic+, and destroy Bursting Shrooms during Fungal Bloom before they explode. Mythic adds Funglings and Doom Shrooms if corpse types mix.
Rotmire builds energy from Awaken Fungi add waves. At 100 energy he casts Fungal Bloom — a raid-wide hit, knockback, and transformation of every dead add corpse into a Bursting Shroom. If any living add is still up during Bloom, it heals to full and gains Fungal Frenzy (you cannot kick it — that is a wipe).
Colored circles spawn — adds appear in those spots.
The moment blue/green circles appear, everyone moves out. Normal = Shroomlings only. Heroic adds Sporecaps. Mythic adds Funglings too. Never stand in the circle when adds spawn.
EveryoneDrag fixated adds to one tight pile and cleave them down.
Heroic: tank pulls boss onto the blue Sporecap circle. Fixated players run Shroomlings onto the Sporecap and stack as tight as possible under the boss. Interrupt Poison Burst every cast.
DamageBig green circle on a player — run it to the wall.
If you have the large green circle, take it to the edge of the room away from the raid and away from your corpse pile. Do not drop vines on the stack spot.
EveryoneBoss hits the whole raid, knockback, corpses become shrooms.
All adds must be dead before Bloom finishes. Living adds heal to full and enrage. The moment Bloom starts, swap to Bursting Shrooms — not the boss.
EveryoneKill shrooms in the pile; defensive for any far explosion.
Cleave down every Bursting Shroom in your corpse clump. Pop a personal or raid CD if a far shroom is about to explode — you will still take damage from it.
DamageWhen circles appear, move out immediately. Do not stand where adds will spawn. On Normal only Shroomlings appear; Heroic adds Sporecaps; Mythic adds Funglings too.
Rotmire spawns colored circles on the ground. Adds appear in those spots shortly after.
If fixated, drag your Shroomlings to the stack spot and kill them in a tight pile under the boss (Normal) or on top of the Sporecap (Heroic). Stack as tight as possible — loose corpses spread Bursting Shrooms across the room.
Small mushrooms fixate a random player and chase them. Melee hits are mild — corpse placement is the real danger.
Tank drags the boss onto the Sporecap. Fixated players bring Shroomlings to the Sporecap and cleave them on top of it. Assign a dedicated interrupt on Poison Burst every cast.
On Heroic+, a blue circle marks where a Sporecap will spawn. It stands still and casts Poison Burst (raid-wide stacking poison) and Blightshot.
Call it: Use the first Sporecap as your permanent stack anchor for the whole fight.
If you have the big green circle around you, run it to the edge of the room away from the raid and the add piles. Do not drop it on your stack spot.
A large green circle appears on a player — spreading vines that hurt anyone nearby.
Before Bloom ends, all adds must be dead. The moment Bloom starts, swap to Bursting Shrooms in the corpse pile and cleave them down. Pop defensives — especially for a far shroom you cannot kill fast enough.
At 100 energy: heavy raid damage, 16-second DoT, knockback. Every dead add corpse becomes a Bursting Shroom. Any living add heals to full and gains Fungal Frenzy.
Call it: One shroom exploding is survivable with stack + defensive. Multiple shrooms across the room is a wipe.
Kill them in the tight corpse pile with AoE immediately after Bloom starts. If one is out of reach, call for a defensive — you are about to take damage from the explosion.
Spawn on add corpses during Fungal Bloom. If not killed, they explode for heavy raid-wide damage.
Tanks swap after every Putrid Fist. Face the boss so fixated players can reach the stack spot.
Tank buster on the active tank — swap after each cast.
Play clean early — missed mechanics in the first Bloom make the third Bloom nearly unhealable. Healers ramp cooldowns for later Blooms.
Raid-wide debuff that stacks over the fight and makes each Fungal Bloom hurt more.
Rotmire catalyzes the growth of new fungal minions with Awaken Fungi. Upon reaching 100 energy, Rotmire creates a Fungal Bloom that grows Bursting Shrooms from minions' corpses.
