Alrighty, so I was puttzing around on the internet and found this on Icy Veins and gave it a quick read through...
Icy Veins Xhul'horac
The below is something I think we all should read and be sure we understand. It may prove helpful in defeating this boss, or at least getting closer. Please feel free to discuss this!
5.3.3. Handling the Mechanics
Players targeted by Void Surge Icon Void Surge should move as far away from Xhul'horac as possible, and more importantly, away from any Chaotic Felblaze Icon Chaotic Felblaze patches left in Phase One. This is to avoid them ever meeting and triggering a Shadowfel Annihilation Icon Shadowfel Annihilation, as well as allowing the raid as much space as possible.
To deal with Black Hole Icon Black Hole, assign a group of at least 2 raid members to walk into the Black Hole together to trigger a Singularity Icon Singularity and split the damage amongst themselves. Immunities do not work for avoiding this damage.
The Wild Pyromaniacs' Fel Orb Icon Fel Orb casts should still be interrupted as often as possible. For any Fel Orbs that go through, you should let them travel to the wall if they are moving towards the Chaotic Felblaze Icon Chaotic Felblaze on the other side of the room, since the Shadowfel Annihilation Icon Shadowfel Annihilation that will be triggered is too far away to do harm to your raid. If they are moving towards the raid, intercept them like you would in Phase One.
In order to handle Volatile Voidstep Icon Volatile Voidstep, assign a single raid member to stay closest to all of the Unstable Voidfiends, and kite them away from the raid by moving away from the ground effect when it appears. Since Volatile Voidstep is always cast on the nearest player, they will continue casting it on this assigned player. Ranged DPS players should focus on killing the Voidfiends as second-highest priority, after the Wild Pyromaniacs.
