The Primal Destroyer is a level 50 heroic world boss located on the planet Belsavis. It is located just north of the tomb, standing in the middle of a lake. The difficulty curve of this encounter is designed for level 50 players. The boss drops the Magenta Crystal Schematic and is camped fairly often by other groups. This makes it very hard to find due to the desireability of that schematic.

How to Beat

Requires an 8-man group in Flashpoint gear, or a 6-man group in Operation gear. The fight can be done with 1 tank, 1 ranged or melee off-tank, 2 healers, and 3+ DPS. The more DPS you the easieer the fight is.

Have the main tank hold aggro on the Primal Destroyer; when it drops below 90%, 3 adds will spawn: The Drooling Grubling, the Primal Grubling, and the Unnatural Grubling. All three of these adds have a buff called "Favoured of the Primal Destroyer" which cause the boss to enrage if any of the adds are killed.

The secondary tank needs to pick up the Primal (looks like a mini version of the boss) and the Unnatural (the blue one) Grublings. The Primal Grubling does AoE damage to all nearby players, and needs to be tanked away from the group. The Unnatural Grubling applies a stacking armor debuff, that acts as a soft-enrage. (The easiest thing to do is to have a melee off tank use an AE taunt and pull the three adds away while the raid simply burns the boss.)

The Drooling Grubling needs to be aggro'd by the ranged off-tank and tanked away from the group. This Grubling spits a pool of slime on the ground under his target that deals AoE damage; the player holding him needs to keep moving and make sure to not stand in the pools of slime.

One healer should be dedicated to keeping the ranged off-tank up, while the other focuses on the primary and secondary tanks.

All DPS should ignore the adds completely and focus on burning the boss; he only has 485K health, and should fall rather quickly. (Hence why only one off tank is really needed for this, so long as the off tank has an aoe taunt)
