To clear a Havenswood Island Expedition on Mythic difficulty in Mythic Expedition, gather multiple enemy packs into open clearings, burn standard mobs alongside high-reward elites using area-of-effect (AoE) damage, and prioritize high-density resource zones over direct fights with the opposing AI faction.
Maximizing Azerite Speed with Mob Pulls
Winning on Mythic difficulty requires maintaining a high rate of Azerite generation per minute. Fighting single mob packs individually wastes time and slows your team's momentum.
- Pull to Open Terrain: Havenswood's dense forest contains trees and terrain obstacles that break line-of-sight. Aggro several packs and kite them into broad clearings before unleashing major damaging abilities.
- Maintain Cohesive Movement: Move tight as a group during pulls. Leaving loose enemies behind forces back-tracking and wastes time between objective nodes.
- Mount Between Camps: If your group lacks passive speed boosts or movement skills, mount up immediately after clearing a mob pull to travel to the next camp.
Handling Elites and Cooldowns
Elite mobs yield significantly larger Azerite rewards than standard enemies, making them essential targets for quick runs.
- Anchor AoE on Elites: Drag normal mob packs directly onto elite targets. Treat the elite as your central anchor so your team's AoE attacks eliminate the trash mobs while burning down the primary target.
- Interrupt Key Spells: Mythic elites utilize dangerous knockbacks, stuns, and high-damage casts. Use interrupts or hard crowd-control abilities to disrupt these specific channels before they force your team to scatter.
- Cycle Defensives Early: Stacking large pulls with Mythic elites creates sharp damage spikes. Activate defensive abilities as combat begins in the clearing rather than saving them for low-health emergencies.
Managing Map Objectives Against AI Rivals
The opposing AI faction continuously collects Azerite across the map, creating a strict time limit for your team.
- Target High-Density Zones: If the opposing team builds a lead, shift your route to dense spawn zones—such as the coastal edges or central ruins—to harvest large amounts of Azerite quickly.
- Avoid Protracted AI Fights: Do not spend time fighting enemy NPC heroes unless they are directly contesting an active node. Defeating enemy heroes yields lower Azerite per minute compared to clearing wild island packs.
- Starve Enemy Paths: Clear major resource camps ahead of the enemy AI's movement vector, preventing them from securing uncontested nodes.

This helped me understand heroes much better.
Can you add more details about heroes in a future update?
This guide answered the exact question I had.
The explanation is clear, especially for beginners.
