Zul'Gurub is awesome. Good pacing, incredible diversity in the trash and the bosses, extensive scripting, and a solid challenge even to raid-geared groups. Guilds that are just cutting their teeth on the game's raid content are going to find quite a lot to keep them busy, and really test their limits. If anything, I feel bad for the guilds that are going to go from Zul'Gurub to Molten Core -- it'll seem so dull. But really, more than anything I've seen in a while, Zul'Gurub gives me hope for the future of the game. It's really impressive work, and it leaves me excited for Ahn'Qiraj this winter. Oh, and I'm looking forward to clearing through this place quite a few more times.

Anyway, without further ado...



It's been a while since the UBRS days, and clearly that time has witnessed significant advancement in rollhax technology:


Oh, and the loot.

Yes once we kill Hakkar in our instance today or tomorrow or whatever. It's hard gettin' a group together through other raiding days and also considering a chunk of our group are Euros :S

The dirty Euros in our group had to go to bed before we could finish. And without a shower too, I'd wager.

We play on a german server, horde. Our guild takes down ragnaros and we went in right after the patch and cleared to Hakkar real easy except the Panther boss which was a big problem because of lags first and 2 wipes on the undead troll.

We tried Hakkar but we couldn't find a way. I mean it's displayed neard 800k health. We nuke him down to about mmmm 92%? Than he starts to stun everyone and heals himself back to 100% or near 100%.

That can't be right? Any kind of advice would be appreciated sind we don't have a whole lot of time to try while our ID runs out and one of our shamans payed 60g repair for Sulfuras alone :D

Oh yeah and in the imp section we summoned a boss that hit my rogue without a crit for 78009!!!! shorty before we took him out.

So you'd say it was a blood bath?

We got totally owned by Hakkar. I mean it was worse than Ragnaros for the first time when everyone just beat up on him without any strategy or thinking.

I am sure we killed all of his priest minions. We actually had just a few wipes, considering all of us were new to zulgurub, learning the Tiger , Undead and Panther encounter and the first time meeting the imps when we got owned by 12 voidwalkers.

Perhaps you should pay more attention to what is happening! You don't want any more bloodshed.

I wish I had CritLine set to take screens because I set about 4 seperate Whirlwind records with Ravager during the Team Eurofag Arlokk fights. (Not enough AE...) Level 35 blue axes from a solo-able boss are quite entertaining when you're hitting a bazillion panthers for a lot more than you really should be.

It's surprisingly good at pulling aggro too. :(

How can you help?
I can shoot things and then make my pet move toward them.
