Twins Uppercut!

I keep dying to Emperor Vek’nilash’s Uppercut, It will always one shots me. 7-8k ish dmg every time.

I have looked into the mechanic and all I can find is that it goes out periodically, knocking a random melee damager dealer nearby backwards. And only should be hitting 1-2k.

The tank is always on top of threat. I make sure the tank is also the closest to the boss for the teleport swaps and during dps phase. But I have been trying things.

I try to be with the melee group and the furthest one from the boss, dead.
I try to be in the middle of the melee group, dead.
I try and be the front of the melee group, dead.

I always seem to be the only melee dps to be dying and or targeted by this. I feel like there is something I’m missing. I just don’t know what it is.

Help, thanks.

Uppercut is a random target in melee range. It hits like a truck. With full buffs and consumes you should be able to live it. Also this is a big reason why disc priest is hard meta rn. Just have one keep shields on everyone and use the dome of no one ever dies ability on the melee.
