Legendary CloakCompleting Horrific Visions Solo vs. in a Group

Solo

Pros

Cons

Due to low scaling, your cooldowns are capable of killing troublesome enemies very quickly.
Full benefit from the Titanic Research upgrade, Singuläre Säuberungskunde.
Full benefit from Mysterious Vials hidden throughout the city, as only one person can benefit from a vial.
Able to earn the feat of strength achievement, Welt des Wahnsinns, awarding the title "<name> the Faceless One"
Some effects and abilities from enemies target multiple players and can cause a lot of ground clutter, you'll have more control over your play space.

If you die or hit 0 Sanity, your run is over as there is nobody that can revive you. Notfallschädeldefibrillation can save you once.
Nobody to cover for you if you get disconnected from the game for whatever reason.
Only some classes and roles may have high efficiency at clearing Horrific Visions solo. Some classes simply have an easier time and can clear faster than others.
If you are a healer queueing solo, you'll need to play a DPS spec, Tank spec, or do high damage as your healer spec to be as efficient as DPS and Tank roles.

Group

Pros

Cons

Able to divide and conquer objectives that require both killing enemies and interacting with objects. This makes completing some objectives faster.
Able to use Synchronisierter Gedankenstabilisator, which is very useful overall to keeping Sanity levels high across the group.
More benefit from Wacher Geist as the effect stacks for each player that has it talented.
Players can revive each other by donating half of their remaining Sanity to their ally that has died or hit 0 Sanity.
More utility available to interrupt deadly casts.
Classes and roles that may underperform or players with low cloak levels in this kind of content can be helped along by their friends.
Healers and Tanks are pretty useful.

Enemy health scales significantly per player. In most cases, this will result in enemies taking longer to kill in a group.
Some Madness and Faceless Masks effects affect other players as well. Wahnsinn: Von Schatten verfolgt, the fire pools spawned from Wahnsinn: Versengte Füße, Gesichtslosenmaske der Finsteren Vorstellungen, and the void zones spawned by Gesichtslosenmaske der Verbrannten Brücke are visible to all players and are affected by them even if they aren't the source of them. This can lead to hectic gameplay.
Some enemies cast their abilities on all players, potentially causing more void zones to spawn.
Diminished effects on Singuläre Säuberungskunde.

Quest

Items Needed

What to Do

Überreste einer zerschmetterten Welt Rekonstruktion von Der Fluch des Steins

Der Fluch des Steins Ausgerissene Seite von "Der Fluch des Steins"

Focus on killing Thrall (Vision of Orgrimmar) or Alleria Windläufer (Vision of Stormwind). Line of sight Alleria's Leereneruption and sidestep Thrall's Seismischer Schlag.Doing extra objectives doesn't help you here.

Die Finsternis durchschreiten Rekonstruktion von Furcht und Fleisch

Furcht und Fleisch Ausgerissene Seite von "Furcht und Fleisch"

Focus on clearing BOTH of the Corrupted Area bonus objectives in the Vision. Rekonstruktion von Furcht und Fleisch requires 2 Ausgerissene Seite von "Furcht und Fleisch", but you get 1 for each of the Corrupted Area objectives. You can get up to 1 additional Ausgerissene Seite von "Furcht und Fleisch" for clearing a Lost Area as well. The maximum Ausgerissene Seite von "Furcht und Fleisch" you can get a run is 3, but they don't carry over between quests so trying to get extra is unnecessary. You do not need to worry about killing Thrall or Alleria, you will get your upgrades even if you fail to kill the final boss.

In der Finsternis wandeln Rekonstruktion von Die Endgültige Wahrheit

Die Endgültige Wahrheit Ausgerissene Seite von "Die Endgültige Wahrheit"

Focus on clearing BOTH of the Lost Area bonus objectives in the Vision. These are the hardest areas of the vision so it would be best to go straight for the Lost Areas first. Again, you'll need to clear both Lost Areas to be the most efficient here, don't worry about any other objectives. It will take multiple Horrific Vision runs to complete many of these quests.

Anomale Leerenflosse - Fishing

Missgestalteter Knirscher - Fishing

Gebackene Leerenflosse - While well fed, increase movement speed by 20% for 1 hour while in a Vision of N'zoth.
Very useful in general as you'll be traveling a lot, and every second counts inside the vision.

Dubiose Delikatesse

Most crowd control effects you would receive can be prevented, but if you do get hit by one, it won't last as long.

Grässliches Gulasch

Healing 2% of your health a second is no small heal, very strong overall.

Gegrillter Knirscher

This effect works the same as Stealth. You can get fairly close to enemies but if you get too close they will attack. Any action will break this effect and remove the buff.

K'Bap

Useful to gain a little extra Sanity, more efficient at higher cloak levels and areas with less passive Sanity drain.

StealthGegrillter KnirscherPlanning and JudgementVerstandswiederherstellungskugelEliteauslöschungVerstandswiederherstellungskugelTips

Plan your 3 Verstandswiederherstellungskugel accordingly. If you plan to full clear, here's a basic plan that you should be able to follow if you are on par to do so.

Head to the nearest Corrupted Area and clear the objective, you should be able to do so without using a Verstandswiederherstellungskugel.
Start your first Lost Area and clear till your Sanity gets low. Drop your 1st Verstandswiederherstellungskugel and while remaining in the effect, continue working on your objective. Finish the Lost Area objective.
Start your 2nd Corrupted Area, halfway through when your Sanity gets low again, drop your 2nd Verstandswiederherstellungskugel. You should finish your 2nd Corrupted Area objective close to full Sanity.
Start clearing your last Lost Area objective, you should be able to clear most of it before you need your final Verstandswiederherstellungskugel. Finish your last bonus objective.
You should engage the final boss with at least 40% Sanity which should be more than enough to finish.

Keep Eliteauslöschung in mind, make sure your Sanity is low enough to gain its full effect.

If you have K'Bap, it is very useful to use these during downtime and certain roleplay events.

Be very careful when pulling enemies while at low sanity levels, you can't drop Verstandswiederherstellungskugel in combat.

Keep the Gabe der Titanen Titanic Research talent in mind. When it procs, you are immune to Sanity loss for 20 seconds, this allows you to pull some elite enemies without fear of losing Sanity to their mechanics.

Horrific Visions Hard Mode: Faceless MasksFaceless Masks

Gesichtslosenmaske der Langen Nacht - Reduces Maximum Sanity by 50%.

Gesichtslosenmaske der Verbrannten Brücke - Moving causes void zones to spawn in your path and drain sanity if standing within them.

Gesichtslosenmaske des Waghalsigen - All Sanity damage caused by creatures is increased by 400%.

Gesichtslosenmaske des Leidenden - Each area will consist of 2 Madnesses (instead of 1).

Gesichtslosenmaske der Finsteren Vorstellungen - While below 50% sanity, occasionally an enemy of the void will spawn and attack you.

Faceless Mask Locations

Mask

Unlock Condition

Gesichtslosenmaske der Langen Nacht

Successfully complete all 5 objectives within a single visit of a Horrific Vision.

Gesichtslosenmaske der Verbrannten Brücke

With 1 mask active, successfully complete the Valley of Wisdom objective in the Horrific Vision of Orgrimmar.

Gesichtslosenmaske des Waghalsigen

With 1 mask active, successfully complete the Valley of Honor objective in the Horrific Vision of Orgrimmar.

Gesichtslosenmaske des Leidenden

With 1 mask active, successfully complete the Old Town objective in the Horrific Vision of Stormwind.

Gesichtslosenmaske der Finsteren Vorstellungen

With 1 mask active, successfully complete the Mage Quarter objective in the Horrific Vision of Stormwind.

Gesichtslosenmaske der Langen NachtFaceless Mask Unlock Strategy

Unlock Gesichtslosenmaske der Langen Nacht by full clearing a Horrific Vision.

On your next Horrific Vision run, activate Gesichtslosenmaske der Langen Nacht and clear the Valley of Wisdom (Orgrimmar) or Mage Quarter (Stormwind). Doing so will unlock the masks tied to those zones which are significantly less impactful on your ability to clear.

Using your new Faceless Mask, clear the Lost Areas of both Orgrimmar and Stormwind to collect all the remaining masks.

Horrific Visions Full Clear (5 Mask) TipsVerderbte AndenkenSignificant Effects

Every mask you activate increases the Health and Damage of enemies by 25%. With 5 masks this effect is 125% increased health and damage. This is the most significant effect you'll experience.

Gesichtslosenmaske der Langen Nacht severely cuts your available Sanity and therefore will be the biggest factor on how fast you have to clear before you hit 0 Sanity. This does not affect Sanity gained however, so effects that restore static amounts of Sanity such as Eliteauslöschung are very important.

Gesichtslosenmaske der Verbrannten Brücke becomes more of an issue with the more players you have in the vision, as each player spawns void zones that all players are effected by. This mask requires you to be very mindful of your movement at all times and can be chaotic if you move carelessly.

With Gesichtslosenmaske des Waghalsigen active, you will want to be extremely cautious around Elites, as they are the only creatures that deal Sanity damage. Almost all Sanity damage from Elites is avoidable, so if you play it right, this mask means almost nothing. However, one wrong move is deadly as most abilities from Elites will deplete an entire Sanity bar with this mask active.

Gesichtslosenmaske des Leidenden causes many bad combination of Madnesses to be possible. An example is Wahnsinn: Gespaltene Persönlichkeit and Wahnsinn: Von Schatten verfolgt. You'll have Wahnsinn: Von Schatten verfolgt spawn under you, forcing you to move, however Wahnsinn: Gespaltene Persönlichkeit then spawn and your caught running directly into the mirror images causing you to get disoriented in the Wahnsinn: Von Schatten verfolgt effect.

Gesichtslosenmaske der Finsteren Vorstellungen can be dangerous if you like to play around very low Sanity levels (which you might need to to be successful). You'll occasionally spawn an enemy that will put you in combat and attack you. It's not that threatening by itself, however this could be a problem if you are about to drop a Verstandswiederherstellungskugel and then an enemy spawns on you and interrupts you.

Be very strategic with movement in combat. There are a lot of mechanics that require you to move, but also punish you for moving (such as Gesichtslosenmaske der Verbrannten Brücke). This is extremely true if Wahnsinn: Bleierner Fuß is an active Madness (which it likely is due to Gesichtslosenmaske des Leidenden).

The add from Gesichtslosenmaske der Finsteren Vorstellungen spawns about every 60-90 seconds. Try to keep track of this and be wary if you plan to drop a Verstandswiederherstellungskugel soon.

Make sure you have cooldowns to kill Elites quickly, especially those Elites that do Sanity draining effects that are hard to avoid. Every bit of Sanity damage from Elites is increased by 5 times its normal value and you already have small Sanity capacity.

Use K'Bap off cooldown. Make sure to sit for the full 20 seconds to get the 2nd tick.

Vision of Stormwind Full Clear Strategy and RouteStep-By-Step: Remember to be on the lookout for Chests hidden throughout the vision for extra Verderbte Andenken.

Clear to the front of the Cathedral and kill the 2 guards just outside the entrance to the Cathedral. From the front of the Cathedral, check to see which hidden buff is active, grab it if you want.

Head towards the Dwarven District first and complete its objective. Once you enter the district, check the building just left of the entrance for a hidden 10% damage buff. If the door is open, sneak between the teleportation mines to the 2nd floor and walk over the buff mine. Continue the objective as normal.

After defeating Therum Tiefenschmied and completing the Dwarven District, exit the district through the gateway behind where you just fought the boss. Head towards Old Town and complete its objective. Be careful of the 2 stealthed adds in the gateway entrance to Old Town.

Old Town is one of the most dangerous districts, take it slow. As you enter, make sure you kill Waffenmeisterin Terenson on the right at the fork. Once you kill her, go back and clear through Old Town down the path to the left of the entrance. Clear all the enemies along the path and finish the objective.

After defeating Shaw, take the portal nearby back to the Stormwind Cathedral. Now head towards the Trade District for the next objective.

BONUS: Craggle Schlingerkreisel patrols around the Trade District, if you happen to catch him passing by, you can defeat him. You'll need to seperate him from his toys however. He is classified as an Elite so you'll benefit from Eliteauslöschung

Once you enter the district go left and work on the objective as normal. The Trade District objective is a fairly straight forward and you will have to kill almost all the enemies throughout the district to complete the final step of the objective. If the door to the Stormwind Bank is open, you can go inside and kill the Vernachlässigte Gildenbank for a 10% critical strike chance buff.

Once you've finished business in the Trade District, exit and head towards the final objective, the Mage Quarter.

The Mage Quarter is a complex district with its objectives scattered around. I prefer to go right as you enter the district and then follow the path straight towards the center of the district where the Mage Tower is. On your way you can tag a Portal Keeper on your left, before you enter the center of the area.

When you reach the center of the Mage Quarter, kill the elite and the 2 portal keepers in the area around the Mage Tower. After that, you only have 2 more portal keepers to go and they aren't that far. Kill them both then finish out the rest of the objective by heading into the Mage Tower.

After defeating Magister Umbric, take the portal provided to the Stormwind Cathedral and head inside to defeat Alleria Windläufer. She will be a bit more difficult to defeat since you've cleared all the other objectives.

Collect Loot!

Vision of Orgrimmar Full Clear Strategy and RouteStep-By-Step: Remember to be on the lookout for Chests hidden throughout the vision for extra Verderbte Andenken.

Clear towards the front of Grommash Hold and kill the 2 guards in front to open the entryway into the hold. Don't go inside yet however, head to the right of the hold and towards The Drag first.

Enter The Drag and complete its objective. You'll have to kill all enemies along the path and escort Garona Halforcen to check all the buildings for survivors.

Once you've checked all the buildings, there is a bit of roleplay before the boss becomes attackable. This is a good time to take a second to use K'Bap if you got them.

After completing The Drag objective, head straight towards The Valley of Honor

The Valley of Honor only has one objective, so it is completely up to you on the path you want to take. You can sneak around many of the enemies here, but some have stealth detection and others are hiding in the corpses of dead Orgrimmar grunts. Make your way to the other end of the Valley of Honor to reach Rexxar.

Rexxar is a very difficult boss, having more health than most other bosses. Make sure to control and kill the boars he sends out at you, as they deal a lot of damage and cast Leerenkiele which will drain your Sanity rapidly. Defeat Rexxar to finish this area.

Use the Wind Totem located outside of the arena you just fought in for a quick and perfectly safe travel back to the starting area. When you land, this time head left of Grommash Hold and up the ramps towards the west section of Orgrimmar. Help Zekhan and the other shamans just past the barrier.

After defeating Dezimierer Shiq'voth, you have a free choice on which area you want to do here first. I prefer doing the Valley of Wisdom first, as there is a small delay before the firewall towards Valley of Spirits is lowered to let you pass.

Go to the Valley of Wisdom, the path to the right where you fought Dezimierer Shiq'voth and enter. This objective requires you to kill a ton of enemies. There is a miniboss on each end of the Valley and they give 25% count towards the progress bar so make sure to kill them both. In total you can skip one pack of enemies, I prefer to not kill the group with 2 Dominator der K'thir as their Berührung des Abgrunds is deadly.

After you fill the progress bar, kill the boss that spawns and you're finished here. Backtrack towards where you entered the valley from until you reach the tunnel entrance to the Valley of Spirits.

You will need to fight your way through the Valley of Spirits to complete its objective. Free the 5 shamans which are all along the path to the left when you enter. After you free all the shamans, you do NOT need to pull the 2 larger enemies before the Auslöschungselementar. These can be skipped by stealthing between them and the building or going all the way around to the right of the building. Kill the Auslöschungselementar.

With all 4 bonus objectives complete, hurry inside Grommash Hold (the path should be clear). Be very careful as Thrall will be much more difficult due to completing all of the objectives. He will have 2 Void Boars with him that should be interrupted and killed as fast as possible.

Save cooldowns or immunities when he reaches 55%, as Thrall will put up a massive shield that will deal heavy damage and Sanity damage to you if you don't do enough damage to it. Defeat Thrall to end the vision.

Are there any suggestions which essence to use on which class? This would be very useful.

Great Guide, however i think you are missing something when it comes to a full 5 star guide, I think you should add information and what parts you can do when u start your first Horrific Vision (Even if its only the first part and if there are any ways to get extra Mementos.

I would like to know for myself for instance how many Mementos i can get from doing my first Vision and what am i able to do before i lose my sanity completely.

Kommentar von Xweaz1

Actually, a short paragraph explaining what they are and how you start them would round out this guide very nicely.

Kommentar von croana

Tradeable loot at the end of the vision.

I just completed my first real vision with a group of 5, and the loot is definitely not tradeable. As such, I'm not really sure what the actual benefit of doing this in a group is? From what I understand, mobs gain more than 100% extra health per person in the group? It seems to me that the only reason to complete this as a group is to carry an undergeared player. Does anyone else have some insight here?

Kommentar von Hykon

I think you should add some info about the precise locations of each of the buff mobs. I saw you had a note about the buff mine in SW, but you didn't mention Naros in the forge in Org. He's very easy to check for and provides one of the better buffs in the run.

Kommentar von DcanD

Has anyone actually tested the "divide and conquer" strategy and if it is possible to for example split into two groups doing two different sections and mini bosses?
We had an instance where one of the team members died and couldn't be ressed due to a bug and didn't get the chest for the boss we killed without him. The GM response was: "you have to be present for the kill of the boss and the character must be alive and active in the kill before boss dies". I would understand to be "active" as you need to tag the boss in order to obtain loot at the end, but couldn't find sufficient confirmation.

Kommentar von sniperorc

Ilvl 440? That explains why I can barely beat one Corrupted area plus the main.

Oh, well, I'm not in a hurry.

Kommentar von Solivarnik

Is it just me, or the Alleria fight in the Cathedral resembles a lot the Aldritch battle in Anor Londo cathedral in Dark Souls 3?

Kommentar von Dziubla

The part about K'Bab restoring 100 sanity twice if you sit for full 20 seconds is incorrect. Failed my full clear at Alleria's 1% hp pretty much thanks to wasting 10 unnecessary seconds hoping for another 100 sanity.

Kommentar von Retron2

Look out for "mysterious green potions" as you move around - they restore 100 sanity when you drink them. Potions of various kinds can be found lying around the town and have a particle effect to draw your attention to them.

(The other colours provide various buffs, or in the case of the black one they drain sanity, then restore some of it).

Kommentar von Thargeon

Final EDIT 09.02.2020 for a short summary of my runs and the potion color combinations (list finally completed!)

Potions with the same color as the potion which can be found next to the dead bodies (+ a note; see below) will be the one dealing 60 sanity damage to you in your recent vision.
I'm about 99,9% sure about that :D

I'll list the combinations in the following way:

Combination "Color" (-> color of the potion next to the dead bodies with the note) and the buffs you get with the other colors

All combos were tested in Vision of Ogrimmar & Stormwind

If someone is interested in it or can't find the corpse:

Stormwind: Morgan Pestle (coords are at about 52/58)

Ogrimmar: will be filled next week ^^

-------------------------

Original post:
I have a theory about the colored potions....maybe someone can confirm this. I'll check it again in my next runs.

I noticed that you can find a note next to a corpse in OG and SW...and also a potion (atleast in OG, I'll check this next week for SW).
Location OG: In a little hut/cabin next to the bank (if you are in front of the bank, it'll be on the right side).
Location SW: I think the note was somewhere on the right side after the first 1-2 enemy groups (I'll pay more attention next week ^^)
The content of the note is about these potions and finishes with something like "he wasn't able to finish the note".

Kommentar von Alanray43

In cathedral district on the way to dwarven, check one of the shops, that has a bunch of hidden mobs located next to the one with the funky ethereal who wants some odd crystal. There's also a buff if accessible, in a shop on the way to trade district by killing the guy inside.

Kommentar von stym

As others mentioned, you only get one 100 sanity buff after 10 seconds of eating K'Bap and that's it.
I made a small chart of the net sanity gains after eating K'bab for 10 seconds straight in the three zone types in horrific visions, based on your cloak level:

Cloak Level	Tainted Area	Corrupted Area	Lost Area
1 or 2	52	36	4
3 or 4	55	40	10
5 to 7	64	52	28
8 to 9	67	56	34
10	70	60	40
11 or 12	79	72	58
13	82	76	64
14	85	80	70
15	88	84	76

As you can see, eating K'bab in a Lost area is sub-optimal if you have a low cloak level. If you can plan it, try to eat it just outside those zones.
Also, it is rather obvious, but 100-<figure from this table> is the amount of sanity you will lose before the buff kicks in (e.g. at cloak level 8, you will lose 66 sanity before the bonus kicks in when eating in a lost area), so make sure you have at least that amount before sitting down to eat. Check your bar and cancel eating immediately after getting the buff.

Kommentar von Kaerfemagsh

why bother making a guide for this crap, ive already been screwed out of 3 vessels due to blizzards poor design, itd be MUCH more constructive to make a petition to bliztard to refund the vessels of every1 thats been screwed out of them rather than "write a guide" for something that glitches up anyway

Kommentar von Sanguinezor

What are the candles for in Stormwind visions? I have found 3 interactable candles that don't seem to do anything?

Kommentar von tboctavan2

I don't know if it's been said here, but Breath of the Dying major is a godsend.

And Magister Umbric can be interrupted with a ranged toy/vanity item.

Kommentar von Deamon002

Scharfer Trank is worse than useless in my opinion. More than once have I failed a Vision because the proc killed a random critter, prematurely triggering Gabe der Titanen leaving it unavailable when I actually needed it.

Kommentar von datgrl

I'm a bit confused about the achievements The Most Horrific Visions of Stormwind/Orgrimmar. You have to do a full clear with 5 masks active. My question is how to activate the masks? Do you need a group of 5 and each person takes a mask? Or if you're in a group does 1 person activate all 5 masks and the rest of the group is along for the ride? Or are you only able to activate 5 masks in a solo run?

Kommentar von tkalfaoglu

Forgive my ignorance but if the masks are so damaging, do we have to collect them?

Kommentar von Syrlin

This guide really needs a good update.

1) Tanks and Healers excel at solo visions because of reduced mob health if you enter as those specs. "healers will face enemies with 42% less health and tanks will fight enemies with 25% reduced health." source

2) Odd Crystals are not mentioned at all. You can collect the Odd Crystals starting at a certain cloak rank (maybe somewhere around rank 5-7?) for even more Verderbte Andenken. This will help you unlock your research tree faster.

3) You can get armor loot by killing the main boss, once per week per difficulty. What difficulty means is how many additional areas you complete per run, and then how many masks you run with. Each level of difficulty increases the ilvl reward of the armor. If you have done the same difficulty that week already, you will get the next lower difficulty reward. Once again, you must kill the main boss to receive loot rewards. If you complete just the two Corrupted areas that your quest calls for, for example, and do not go back and kill the main boss, you will not receive a loot reward. The loot has a very high chance (maybe 100%, not sure) to be corrupted, and the minimum ilvl for it is 420.

4)

It will take multiple Horrific Vision runs to complete many of these quests.

...is no longer correct. As of May 18, 2020, you only need up to a single clear to complete your quest and rank up your cloak. source

5) There are some very helpful Weakauras out there for Horrific Visions. A few that I recommend are:

Horrific Visions Potion Note Simply click on the color potion that is the poison one as per this guide's instructions, and this weakaura will tell you what the other colors do.
Chest and Odd Crystal Counter Helps you keep track of all the Odd Crystals and Chests you have collected within that run, so you can know if you are missing any.
Sanity Tracker with Gift icd bar and +500 sanity/battle res check Tracks your and your group's sanity; your Gift of the Titans internal cooldown so you know when it's going to proc on next kill; and whether or not you have self-rezzed with Emergency Cranial Defibrillation since it happens automatically and can be hard to notice.

Kommentar von alpanhell

How does this even qualify as a guide? It's missing so much!

Even stupid ^&*! like the Shaw fight has no details whatsoever!

Kommentar von Gerotora

You should wear the Shroud and the Heart of Azeroth (with powers) even if they are lower ilvl than your current gear, because both grant corruption resistance. It'll help tremondously when you first start figuring out these visions and allows you to have much easier masked runs too.
