Venomous Abyss Heroic boost: the achievement difficulty
This raid's headline achievement is tied to Heroic. To earn Ahead of the Curve: Ula'tek, Ula'tek must go down on Heroic or above while Midnight Season 2 runs, and our full Heroic run comes with it. Heroic also lifts the loot to item level 305–318, a clear step over Normal; the Normal-or-Heroic table on this page puts the two side by side. In practice a Heroic carry means one of our booster raid teams takes your character through The Venomous Abyss at this difficulty.
Three Heroic runs: 8/8, 6/8 and 2/2
We cut only Heroic into pieces. The full run clears every boss. The 6/8 run handles six bosses out of eight. The 2/2 run is just the final pair. A shorter run makes sense when your character is missing just a few bosses for the week, or when you want the drops of a couple of bosses without sitting through a whole clear. When the achievement is the reason for buying, go for the 8/8: it is the run Ahead of the Curve comes with.
Heroic loot: group loot first, then upgrades
On Heroic the price starts with plain group loot, meaning drops are rolled among everyone in the raid. Unless you upgrade, there is no pass-down of unneeded items here; unsaved group loot is a paid step on Heroic. Beyond it are armor-type and token priority, then full loot priority. The 8/8 and the 6/8 runs share one set of these options. The 2/2 run stays on group loot, so treat it as a quick stop at two bosses, not a gearing plan.
Heroic full run plus Tidebound Grotto
Tidebound Grotto attaches only to the full Heroic run. Because the boosters then cover two raids, every loot option for that combined order is priced apart, and the loot table gives those prices an extra column. If you want the Grotto by itself, on any difficulty, there is the Tidebound Grotto carry.
Is Heroic the right order for you?
Heroic suits three kinds of buyer: players chasing the achievement, characters whose item level has outgrown Normal, and anyone heading into higher Mythic+ keys next, where stronger gear from the raid makes the climb easier. When only the achievement matters, the AOTC boost walks through the order built around it. To gear an alt from scratch, the lighter Venomous Abyss Normal carry is enough. Mythic, sold only together with Tidebound Grotto, sits on the Venomous Abyss boost overview.
Venomous Abyss Heroic: what buyers ask
Which Heroic run includes Ahead of the Curve?
The 8/8. Ula'tek has to be beaten on Heroic or harder in Midnight Season 2, and we list the achievement with the complete clear only.
What separates the 6/8 run from the 2/2 run?
Coverage and loot. The 6/8 run takes six bosses and works with every loot option. The 2/2 run takes the final two bosses and stays on group loot.
What loot is in the base Heroic price?
Plain group loot: you roll alongside everyone else. On the 8/8 and 6/8 runs you can pay to move up to unsaved group loot, armor-type and token priority or full loot priority.
Can Tidebound Grotto be added to a Heroic order?
Only to the 8/8. Loot for the two raids together is then priced separately, in an extra column of the loot table.
Is full loot priority offered on Heroic?
Yes, for the 8/8 and 6/8 runs. Every drop that fits your character is then traded to you; the per-boss item counts are what we expect, not a promise.
