Have any of you completed the Demo challenge yet? I’ve made a lot of progress, but I’m hitting a soft enrage. Every time one of the mobs uses an ability, the ability’s cooldown gets shorter. By the time I have them down to about 30%, they are using their abilities so often that they overlap in a way that makes the fight impossible to finish. I’m using Doom on all 3 of them. Blast them as much as I can while doing the mechanics. I don’t think 650 DPS is going to cut it.

Haven’t beat it, but I’ve hit the hard enrage a lot. Having the pet tank the axe boss helps me a ton. Also, I think 850+ dps is required.
I just keep hitting the hard enrage as well. Clear mechanics just fine. But not able to kill at about 700 dps.
I pushed the fight as far as you can go before wiping. It’s pretty much a guaranteed wipe when Runeseer Faljar casts 2 back-to-back explosions. Obviously you can only interrupt one of them and I ain’t got no ice block. Thereare weakauras for the fight that were posted on wago today. They remind you to tongues the Runeseer and they remind you to recast Doom. The big thing they do is play unmissable audio warnings for blood of the father and the valkyr wall.
Tongues on Runeseer is big.
I did it today with ~800-850 dps. Had to go deep into enrage and kill 3 shields back to back. Honestly don’t have much trouble doing that as long as your pets are already on him when he starts. You can survive one failed shield with UR.
Played doom. No special gear at all, just my current tier raid stuff.
Do mechanics, try to keep them stacked when you can. Feel free to fear Sigryn away and ignore her for a while if you’re taking too much damage. Break her blood of the father casts with mortal coil if fear is too slow.
@Demondiaper How did you kill three shields back to back? I have been wiping every time Runeseer casts a second shield in a row because my interrupt isn’t off CD for the second one, let alone a third. This ended three pulls in a row for me last night.

Interrupt the first, tank the second with UR and full hp, interrupt the third
I think you could also technically swap to dog pet at the end of the fight and get every interrupt but I’m not quite sure
I haven’t killed her yet because i am absolutely Inept, but i am going to post here sources to help my fellow warlocks on how to kill it and how to improve, as well as some tips and tricks.

Now some tips i have gathered from other people.
-
Curse of Tongues when applied on the Runeseer before he starts his shield will make the cast lengthier giving more time for you to break it and more time for you to interrupt it, it also makes his shadow bolts take more time reducing the damage he deals.
-
Curse of Weakness on Sigryn can help reduce some of her damage as well, Curse of Weakness on Jarl could help if you plan for your felguard to tank the berserker fury but you will need to heal him some times.
-
Sigryn Blood of the father [the transformation where she deals aoe damage] can be interrupted by Fear, Stuns, Mortal Coil, if she cast it, still fear her [and then renew it at the end] as at least it stops doing the nasty AOE damage
-
Jarl is immune to fear, but you can stun his bladestorm with Shadowfury, bonus point if you manage to stun sigryn together with him as sometimes she does Blood of the father together with Berserker fury.
-
If Runeseer is casting a second shield interrupt and you don’t have felguard interrupt, summon Felhunter for a second interrupt, if you still have Grimoire Felguard CD he also can interrupt.
-
When you have Valkyrs + Runes don’t rush it, there is enough time to catch the 2nd and 3rd Rune after the valkyrs have passed, if you have that together with Bladestorm Shadowfury Bladestorm first as the vacuum effect probably will stop you from dodging valkyrs.
-
There is an DBM extra module for the Mage Towers Challenges its called DBM Challenges: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/dbm-challenges
-
You can Fear Sigryn even before she starts blood of the father, if she is CC’d she cant start the cast of it.
-
having them stacked means you will be dealing more damage to them as they all share health.
-
Some Talents like Bilescourge, Doom and SoulStrike do seem to shine here, Soulstriking sigryn is particularly userfull to grab aggro back of her to the felguard.

Do the bosses still do their abilities or become empowered in a certain order? I recall that being a thing in Legion.
Just got it done, pretty average gear. They key is really to group them up as much as you can and do big damage during Tyrant windows. Took me 3 Tyrant windows

Bilescourge and doom carry the fight heavily. Soulstrike sigryn on cd, group them up and bomb and fel storm them, keep doom up. i was able to sustain 950 dps.
Also if you have the cyclontron trinket from mechagon, use it, it does 5k damage.
