Venomous Abyss Normal boost: the full raid on Normal
A Venomous Abyss Normal boost is a raid carry through all eight bosses of The Venomous Abyss on Normal difficulty. You join a booster raid team, the raid is cleared in one run, and what you take home depends on the loot option you pick. Normal is the lower of the two difficulties we sell as a run of its own, and the natural pick for an alt, a returning character or a first look at the raid.
What a Normal carry is for
Normal gear sits below the Heroic range, and tier tokens are among the drops. That makes Normal the step before Heroic: a character new to the season can pick up its first tier pieces and enough item level to get more out of a later Heroic run. Normal does not count for Ahead of the Curve, which asks for Ula'tek on Heroic or higher, so if the achievement is the goal, Normal is not the run for it.
Loot options on a Normal run
The option included in the Normal price is unsaved group loot: when the boosters do not need an item, it is passed to you instead of being rolled for. On top of that, armor-type priority brings in boosters who wear your armor type, so more of what drops can be traded to you, and full loot priority sends everything that suits your character your way. Each step is a fixed add-on, listed in the loot table above with our estimate of items per boss.
Normal with Tidebound Grotto
The season's second raid can join a Normal full run in the same order. With it, the loot options are priced for both raids together, which is why the loot table has a second column. To run the Grotto on another difficulty or by itself, see the Tidebound Grotto page.
Normal or Heroic
Take Normal for gear on a fresh or returning character, for tier tokens, or to see the raid without the pressure of a harder difficulty. Take the Heroic carry for higher item level or for Ahead of the Curve. Mythic is sold only in the bundle with Tidebound Grotto, on the main Venomous Abyss boost page.
Questions about Venomous Abyss Normal carries
How many bosses does a Normal Venomous Abyss carry include?
All eight. Normal is sold only as a full 8/8 clear, with or without Tidebound Grotto added to the same order.
Does a Normal carry give Ahead of the Curve?
No. Ahead of the Curve: Ula'tek asks for Ula'tek on Heroic difficulty or higher during Midnight Season 2, so it comes with the Heroic carry, not the Normal one.
What is unsaved group loot?
Items that drop and are not needed by the boosters are passed to you rather than rolled for among the raid. On Normal it is the option included in the base price.
Do I get tier tokens from a Normal run?
Tier tokens are among the Normal drops. How many you end up with depends on what drops and on your loot option; the items-per-boss counts in the priority options are our estimates, not a promise.
Can I play my own character in a Normal raid carry?
Yes. With self-play you join the raid on your own character. Piloted means a booster plays it for you, and remote control is offered for an extra charge.
