have fun waiting for new content
― bnw, Thursday, 16 April 2009 16:52 (fifteen years ago) link
seriously... what fun is that?
the thing I can't figure out is that my whole guild is decked out in T7.5 gear, tanks are all wearing best-in-slot stuff, and our two groups doing 10-man Uld got owned last night. Couldn't even kill whatever boss is after flame leviathan. i suspect some of them went in there expecting to destroy the place and got a lesson in humility (example: one tank was still using his threat spec and gear set). i'm doing heroic tonight, so that should be fun.

Isn't the boss after Flame Leviathan the one who throws a random person into a melting pot that does 7k dmg/sec?

they did a really good job with it. too bad i can't really justify the cost on a DK (no interest in tanking or pvping)

seriously considering switching mains lately.
grrr fucking job making me miss our first foray into ulduar

we downed leviathan and got Razorscale after about seven attempts. Apparently Ignis is bugged, so we skipped ahead to XT-002 and wiped on him 3 times before calling it a night. we raid for 3 hours 3x a week. bunch of fogies in our guild. so far i'm enjoying the Ulduar fights quite a bit!
― slugbaiting (rockapads), Friday, 17 April 2009 17:01 (fifteen years ago) link
Started a Paladin a few days ago, got a leveling guide and basically binged over Passover. Paladin is now level 50. I'm officially switching mains from my rogue. Turns out rogues suck at powerleveling. Paladins are the win.
― Mordy, Saturday, 18 April 2009 20:51 (fifteen years ago) link
one thing dual specs have done is make me wish I had a true hybrid class. I finally bought a 2nd spec for my DK but it feels wasted since I'm not really all that interested in tanking. Pallies and shaman are excellent choices for a main.
― slugbaiting (rockapads), Sunday, 19 April 2009 00:47 (fifteen years ago) link
XT-002 is incredibly, amazingly annoying! Pretty awesome boss, but WOW what an annoying fight; ditto Kologarn (stupid fucking eyebeams).
The trash in the antechamber is crazy! I now see what I was missing in not doing BWL, pre-nerf BT or SWP.
― I can sit in my car all day, and that doesn't make me a car. (HI DERE), Monday, 20 April 2009 16:01 (fifteen years ago) link
You're further than us. We spent all night last night wiping on XT-002. A few people had done it on 10-man, but were mystified about why we were getting owned so hard. We only had one mage in group and he was arcane, so we were having a hard time snaring/stopping the little scrapbot things.
― slugbaiting (rockapads), Monday, 20 April 2009 21:52 (fifteen years ago) link
Because of my schedule last week, XT-002 is the only boss fight in the courtyard that I've done; 25-man Flame Leviathan and Razorscale were downed on a night I couldn't go (they skipped Ignis) and the 10-man pug I did picked me up after the courtyard had been cleared.
So, I know the fights inside Ulduar but I don't know the first few, lol.

srsly, we screwed up the initial pull and our main tank (pally, 43k hp) got 2-shotted
shit is INTENSE
― I can sit in my car all day, and that doesn't make me a car. (HI DERE), Monday, 20 April 2009 23:07 (fifteen years ago) link
I have to say, though, that so far I am pleased with the difficulty level.

haha yeah, as one guy said on Vent last night, "It's been so long since we've had to use our brains on these fights!"

for us it's the first time we've been in a raid that hasn't been on farm forever. there are strats online, but they still have holes in them - no real optimal way of doing everything yet. it's nice being able to figure them out together.

Have any of you tried the heirloom stuff yet? I'm trying to decide if it's worth it since, essentially, you're buying one heirloom for one character (unless you decide to make multiple characters that wear DPS cloth, or agility leather, etc).
― Mordy, Wednesday, 27 May 2009 19:16 (fourteen years ago) link
I haven't, mostly because I haven't wanted to buy leet gear for my shaman with my priest if my priest can't mail it to him.

Also I stopped levelling my alts about a year ago.
I bought two pairs of shoulders (plate and mail) and the axe. I sent them to an alt and transferred the alt to a different server to play with some family members. Leveling is so fast I can't even tell how much the 10% experience thing is helping. My motivation to level an alt is almost non-existent at this point. Been playing for years. It's mostly just something to do while chatting.

I need to join your guild :/ I can't even get my guild to do Sarth 10-man. I've been PuGing everything (as far as finishing a 25-man Naxx). I'm also one Malygos kill away from getting my Champion of the Northern Wastes title.
― Mordy, Monday, 22 June 2009 16:42 (fourteen years ago) link
I would have that title but for some reason it didn't count my heroic Mal'Ganis kill.
btw, I am also 3 mounts away from an albino drake ^_^ ^_^ ^_^
― get money fuck witches (HI DERE), Monday, 22 June 2009 17:18 (fourteen years ago) link
Grats on the Yogg kill! We've been struggling with that fight. It's really highlighted the weaknesses of our guild. Unfortunately, we're a pretty "casual" guild, with a lot of friends and family, so benching or booting people isn't a realistic option.
― slugbaiting (rockapads), Monday, 22 June 2009 18:33 (fourteen years ago) link
We beat the enrage timer by I think 3 seconds, lol.
We stalled for a month when two of our 3 main tanks decided their band was more important than raiding (which I fully endorse btw). It's kind of amazing how much they've nerfed some of the fights (ESPECIALLY XT and Kolo); some of the ease now is knowing how to play them but we reliably do both of those every week without anyone dying, which was just not the case when the dungeon first rolled out.
My new goal is to finish off the Argent Tournament achievement before 3.2 comes out; only have Darnassus to go! Oh, and I have to duel someone but that's basically "hey guildie, let me beat you for this easy achievement lol".
― get money fuck witches (HI DERE), Monday, 22 June 2009 18:55 (fourteen years ago) link
Yeah it had been a point of pride that we stayed ahead of the nerfs, but I think they hotfix nerfed Yogg since we first started (the MCs in phase 1).
I haven't taken much interest in anything outside of raiding, so I haven't really messed with the Argent thing. Do you get something cool if you finish the achievement before 3.2?
― slugbaiting (rockapads), Monday, 22 June 2009 19:41 (fourteen years ago) link
eh, I don't know, I just wanted to do it (mostly to get the exalted rep for cheap mounts towards my lovely albino drake)
― get money fuck witches (HI DERE), Tuesday, 23 June 2009 14:21 (fourteen years ago) link
Just got Exalted with Wyrmrest last night (which gave me the Northrend Vanguard achievement). Think I should spend the 1k to buy a Wyrmrest mount?

question, can you see other players who are not in your guild? can several guilds fight the same monster at once? does it feel like you exist in a world where everyone else is playing (at least on your server) or is it just your guild vs the NPC world?
You can see the rest of the world outside your guild. You can also join with other guilds to down a monster. A guild is actually more of a non-ludic organization. You could easily play the game and never join a guild -- it is primarily an organizational + social + communication tool.
― Mordy, Tuesday, 23 June 2009 17:46 (fourteen years ago) link
It is totally a world where everyone else is playing; as Mordy says, you can go your entire time without ever being in a guild (in fact, most of my characters aren't in guilds).
― get money fuck witches (HI DERE), Tuesday, 23 June 2009 17:49 (fourteen years ago) link
We finally got Yogg. I really didn't expect the fight to be so hard walking into it. It wasn't as hard as Vashj or KT was back in the day, but it gave us a hard time. Probably took us a good 20 hrs of raiding to down him. What finally seemed to do the trick for us was cutting back to five healers.
― mr. me too (rockapads), Monday, 29 June 2009 05:35 (fourteen years ago) link
I wasn't able to play at all this week so I don't know if my guild downed Yogg again, plus I'm taking an enforced mini-break to focus on other things (like Fallout 3, lol) so I'll probably miss out again this week.
Vashj and KT were RIDICULOUS.
