Onyxia records

Liandra · 09/06/05, 10:13 AM

Hello Jerks,

today I downloaded and watched a movie in which some guild kills Onyxia with 17 people. Maniq told me that you can kill Onyxia (with a full raid) in under 10 minutes. So my questions are:

Can you kill Onyxia with even fewer than 17?
If so, would you make a movie of it?
Will you make an "Onyxia done fast" movie?

Would be awesome to see these.

Regards from a mage on a EU server,
Liandra.

P.s.: hi Scorpy!

We did it in like 9 minutes 15 seconds a couple weeks ago. Probably around 35 people.

\/\/ I think I was there. I remember it being really fast but didnt know any 'official' time so to speak. So I posted this instead :(

We had a 7 minute kill last week with about the same number.

I think both are possible really, group composition would be hardest in terms of healing rotations, I'd like to give it a try, probably on test tho :)

We had a 4 minute, 20 second kill two weeks ago (or maybe three). It was damn, damn fast.

I remember that. It was one of the rare times when we actually had 40 people on an Onyxia kill these days :P

Talk of doing it soon with 15. It'll be up to someone else to record it though.

Other than Kazzak, I've never paid much attention to how long our fights last. About the only time limits I'm aware are the 4-hour MC clears.

♦ Maniq · 09/06/05, 1:50 PM

I'll do it, I have fraps and enough HD space to record how long it will take... I hope.

Wubwub · 09/06/05, 2:55 PM

15? That's doable.

Oh, guys, if you actually decide to take this challenge and record it, then please make sure we can see Ony's health a bit more often than in the Insight Onyxia 17 movie. That was recorded by a paladin, and he almost never targeted Onyxia. Kind of makes it unpossible to know what's going on :)

Cheers,
Liandra.

Elfan · 09/07/05, 12:38 PM

You guys could quadruple kill her too.

Fjord · 09/08/05, 3:08 PM

Or kill her with a shaman tanking.

I'm just going to weep for the healers here and now.

There's no need. We never bother healing Fjord anyway. It's less mana to just rez him after a fight.

Hey Fjord tanked her pretty well (it's his dream!) before we wiped hard once...

Also: Elves don't count in conversations. You're just there to kill or, if female, to oggle.

I wonder if anyone could ever five man Onyxia eventually....

It will probably happen eventually if mudflation really starts to kick in after the expansion. Halls of Testing and Temple of Veeshan in EQ used to take 42+ people to do. A few years later HoT was duoable and ToV could be run by 3 guys 2-boxing.
