CHALLENGE MODE TIPS

Some of the following neat tricks require specific classes, but can shave time off to let you snag that Gold you may be gunning for!

Obviously these tips can also be used on Normal, Heroic, or Mythic difficulties, although they are not as necessary.

Beginning of the Instance

There are a couple of strategies to skip the first trash packs before the boss without having to incur the 10 minute potion cooldown from an invisibility potion! The beginning trash for many groups is some of the hardest in the instance, and skipping it can really save some time for easier trash packs later on to meet mob count.

METHOD #1 - Requires: Pet Class + Druido

This method was tested by myself using a Cacciatore and a Druido, although I believe an Unholy Cavaliere della Morte or Stregone should work instead of a Cacciatore (although with the latter, you would likely use Method #2). Essentially, you need to be able to control where your pet and position it manually - if your class can do that, you should be able to use this trick.

The Druido must have the Minor Glyph: Glifo Carbonizzato active.

Once everyone is in the Challenge Mode instance, the Cacciatore/Stregone should position their pet on the platform of the first boss, Ranjit, such that it can be reached by a Druido using Carica Selvaggia (See a map here with rough location markers for the Druido and Pet). Note that the pet must be positioned BEFORE starting the Challenge mode.
- The pet, when running into position, will run THROUGH the wall at the starting point of the dungeon, up the stairs and to the edge of the platform. If during this, it runs through or near mobs (which are actually invisible but still aggroable!) it will take damage and die, after which the owner of the pet will be killed by invisible mobs (the Cacciatore or Stregone). Aggro wiping abilities such as Morte Apparente can prevent such a death after the pet dies.
- If the above happens and the pet dies, have the Cacciatore move to a different position before sending the pet up to the platform. The path that the pet takes varies depending on the starting point, and only a slight change in starting position can change the pathing drastically.
- Test the pet's position by having the Druido use Carica Selvaggia to ensure that there is a clear path. The pet may need to be repositioned (usually closer to the edge of the platform) to ensure the Carica Selvaggia can reach that spot without the Druido falling off immediately afterwards. Note that when testing this, the Druido will be instantly ported back to the start because the challenge mode hasn't been started.
  
  The Druido must be non-shapeshifted when using Carica Selvaggia to leap to an ally's (i.e. the pet's) position.
- Placing a raid marker on the position where the Druido should stand and where the pet should be positioned will help in future attempts.
- Start the challenge mode, ensuring that Carica Selvaggia will be off cooldown once the 5-second countdown finishes.
- As soon as the challenge mode starts, the Carica Selvaggia should Carica Selvaggia to the pet, and then switch to Forma Celere and jump back down on the opposite side of the wall (where a few jars are situated).
  
  Running halfway down the stairs and jumping over the railing to where the jars are can also be done, which runs a lower risk of falling off the edge.
- With the Druido up against the wall in Forma Celere (usually jumping up onto the jars helps with this) each party member should mount (allowing them to jump over the wall), and dismount, allowing the next person to do the same until all group members are over the wall.

TL;DR: A Druido can Carica Selvaggia to a pet on the first boss' platform, jump down and have party members mount (in glyphed stag form) over the wall.

METHOD #2 - Requires: Stregone

This is a method I have seen in videos, but have not tested myself. It should still work in the current patch (6.2.3).

The Stregone should use Circolo Demoniaco and Teletrasporto: Circolo Demoniaco to teleport to the top of the wall, and from there using Rituale d'Evocazione to summon all party members to the top of the wall. One designated person should not accept their summon until they have started the challenge mode.
Jump off the wall once the challenge mode has started, and continue to the first boss.

It's important not to jump off too early, or you will be ported back the beginning (on the wrong side of the wall!)

TL;DR: A Stregone can teleport on top of the starting wall and summon party members up there, to jump over when the challenge mode starts.

Ranjit

If using the above method to skip the beginning trash, you'll want to pull the trash pack of four mobs (consisting of 4 Esiliato Arakkoa and 1 Supremo di Vetta dei Cieli) with you into the boss, and cleave them down as you engage him.

A couple of boss abilities can be reflected back on to the boss, putting a DoT on him, which does massive amounts of damage! This will significantly shorten the encounter.

Abilities that work include:

Sciamano - with Glifo Carbonizzato

Cacciatore - Prevenzione with Glifo Carbonizzato

Guerriero - Rifletti Incantesimo/

The first ability that can be reflected is the small spinning Muro di Lame Ventose that the boss spawns. To do so, simply use the appropriate ability (, Prevenzione, Rifletti Incantesimo or ) and run through the Windwall. This will put a DoT on the boss for full minute (Muro di Lame Ventose) that does 50,000 damage per second on challenge mode difficulty.

When the boss enters the Quattro Venti phase, the larger walls of the swirling wind can also be reflected onto the boss with any of the above abilities. This DoT (Quattro Venti) does 50,000 damage per second for 12 seconds on challenge mode difficulty.

Both of these DoTs can be active on the boss at the same time, and attempts should be made to apply both for maximum damage.

Notes:

For both and Rifletti Incantesimo/, the reflective ability prevents only a single tick of damage to the player using it; as such one should move quickly through the wind effect after activating the ability

A Cacciatore, on the other hand, can pop Prevenzione and stand in the wind effect for as long as it is active, and can prevent multiple ticks of damage.
The WeakAura listed at the bottom can be helpful to indicate whether a reflective ability is active - especially important as other party members may trigger (and consume) OR .
A Cacciatore can apply both Muro di Lame Ventose and Quattro Venti to the boss with both charges of Prevenzione. A Sciamano can do the same if Richiamo dei Totem is talented.

TL;DR: Reflect Muro di Lame Ventose and Quattro Venti onto the boss with appropriate class abilities.

Araknath

Tips

Switch specs from to maximize single target damage for this boss (the hardest of the instance). This may include a completely different class specialization, or simply different talents/glyphs.

Remember that you cannot change glyphs/talents during a challenge mode, but can switch between specs with certain talents/glyphs already selected.

Rotate personal cooldowns when soaking Energizzazione, especially when Scarica is imminent (it has a 2.5 second cast, allowing you to anticipate it).
It is advisable to use Brama di Sangue/Eroismo/Distorsione Temporale for this boss, especially if you are able to the shorten the first boss encounter with the aforementioned tips.

Rukhran

Tips

It's advisable to jump off the platform and suicide after defeating Rukhran (assuming you used Brama di Sangue/Eroismo/Distorsione Temporale on Araknath, and still have Esausto/Sfinito/Spiazzamento Temporale). This will allow you to use it again on Alta Saggia Viryx.

Only after killing Rukhran does a checkpoint activate - from this point on, releasing after dying will put you at Araknath's encounter area, allowing you to run back more easily.

Alta Saggia Viryx

Tips

Any hard CC effective against mechanical units can be used on Costrutto dello Scudo di Vetta dei Cieli (e.g. ), allowing it to be completely ignored while CC'ed.

Note that multiple Costrutto dello Scudo di Vetta dei Cielis will spawn during the encounter, and these will need to be managed. Refreshing the CC may be required on the original construct.

When a Zelota del Sole spawns, there is a short delay after it picks a target (the target is announced by boss mods like DBM) before it picks said player up. The player in question can move closer to the center of the platform in this time, allowing more time to DPS the zealot before it reaches the edge.
An advanced trick to use is to ranged stun the Zelota del Sole before it has picked up its target, thus preventing it from ever picking anyone up! The add can then be ignored, allowing more boss DPS.

Some abilities that potentially work for this include:

Cavaliere della Morte: Asfissia
Guerriero: Dardo della Tempesta
Paladino:

Below is a macro that can be used when a Zelota del Sole spawns to stun it (substitute any appropriate ability for Asfissia):

#showtooltip Asphyxiate
/target Solar Zealot
/cast Asphyxiate
/targetlasttarget

The boss ability Esplosione Solare can be copied and used via Simulacro Oscuro, or reflected with Rifletti Incantesimo/ (and potentially other similar abilities).

General Tips

When passing through the wind gauntlet after Rukhran, a Druido with Forma Celere (and Glifo Carbonizzato) can carry someone through who may have a difficult time.
An advanced trick to skip much of the wind gauntlet altogether is to go up the stairs at the beginning, and then jump off and use a Kit dell'Aliante dei Goblin or Aliante dei Goblin Engineering tinker to turn left around the barrier onto the bird head jutting from the bottom of the platform. You can then climb onto the platform and move up the final stairs.

Here is a video, courtesy of DarkMech TV, that demonstrates this.

Whenever planning to skip trash with Pozione dell'Invisibilità Draenoriana/Pozione dell'Invisibilità keep in mind that Corvo del Terrore mobs can detect invisibility, and cannot be skipped this way!

Below I've listed a WeakAura string that can be used to notify you when is active. It can be modified for use with other spells.

To use it, you need to install the WeakAuras 2 addon, then do the following:

Type /wa in chat to open the WeakAura interface
Click New, then select Import
Copy the text in the following code box and paste it into the WeakAura import field, then click Done
Click the "Import" button on the confirmation in the middle of the screen to add the aura

To modify the aura to work for a buff like Prevenzione or Rifletti Incantesimo, do the following:

Select the "Trigger" tab
Change the "Type" to Aura
In the "Aura Name or ID" box, type the name of the buff (e.g. Rifletti Incantesimo di Massa) and click "Okay"
Make sure the "Unit" dropdown shows "Player, and the "Aura Type" is "Buff"
