Now, let’s see the boss’s tactics.

Vexamus The tank should aim Arcane Expulsion away from teammates.
When Arcane Orbs appear, every player should soak one. If you have a teammate with magic immunity, this player can soak more than one. Track your debuff, and don’t let orbs hit the boss.
Every 40-second boss casts Arcane Fissure spell. Just try to survive and spawn multiple swirls away from other players.
Drop Mana Bombs away from other players and try to group them closely.
Crawth The key boss fight mechanic Play Ball! activates at 75% and 45%  when winds and flames appear at the platform players should pick balls from the ground and use Extra Action Button to throw at the Pitch goals. Every time you score a goal, you can decrease the number of Sonic Vulnerability stacks from Deafening Screech
Also, don’t cast during Deafening Screech
Tanks should track Savage Peck tankbuster ability.
Overgrown Ancient When Germinate starts, players should stay close to the boss and blast with AoE all Hungry Lasher. Don’t forget to help your tank to avoid Lasher Toxin damage
Kick the Ancient Branch  healing spells and stack mobs in one place to dodge Splinterbark with Abundance
The tank should wait for Barkbreaker tankbuster every 20-30 seconds.
Echo of Doragosa Every non-melee boss attack will give players a stack of Overwhelming Power with a useful bonus to the damage. On 4 stacks of the debuff, Arcane Rift  will be dropped near the player, so everybody should track Uncontrolled Energy  coming from Arcane Rift
Stay close to the boss to have time to avoid Astral Breath frontal cone
Try to avoid Power Vacuum immediately it appears.
