Onyxia, what bugs has your guild encountered?

Merton · 03-13-2005, 03:53 PM

Just out of sheer curiosity, i'm wondering what sorts of bugs guilds out there have encountered with Onyxia. I'm almost under the impression after hearing from members in other guilds that a lot of us are fighting different Onyxias, or some of us are just _really_ unlucky.

Case in point:

Whenever we try keeping her against the north wall she ends up doing this to our tanks, resulting in almost every tank being knocked down below the casters aggrowise. Humerously enough this causes us to fear phase1 moreso than we do 2 and 3.

Another fun one we've encountered is where she ran/flew at something like 300% runspeed.

Has anyone encountered any other new and exciting bugs with this stupid encounter?

First kill on skullcrusher happened after a wipe. They all zoned in (I was not there. I was in another guild) and Onyxia was vulnerable to damage and wouldn't fight back.

They had gotten her to like 23% or something before that wipe.

I afked at the zoneline and somehow stuck her in permanent fly mode. lol

Sunder on Proudmoore went to kill her this weekend, and after they wiped with Onyxia at 2% (they've killed her before), she bugged and they couldn't get another attempt at her (I don't know exactly how she bugged though). Not sure if that's a "common" bug or a "new" one.

Cheers,

Sorran.

She has an annoying tendency to go hide under the world after a wipe... oh and she seems to speed hack sometimes too...

Most people don't know that Onyxia is controlled by an 11-year-old Korean kid, who's also a member of myg0t.

Wipe, not whipe.

Had her go under the world after a few attempts. Also Rogues have commented occasionally Feint works on her, other times she is outright immune to the ability. I don't know if that would be considered a bug or something to make the encounter have a slight bit of variety, but I'm guessing its a bug.

does killing her 4 times in 5 days count?

Tuco · 03-13-2005, 06:37 PM

After a w(h)ipe, we ran back and were buffing at the entrance, when she summoned us all and killed us =\

Did that once for us too. People zoning back in would be instantly re-aggroed and summoned.

It seems the multiple knock-back thing is the result of a hotfix (or hopefully a hotbug) of some sort. The damage part is not as bad as the agro reducing part that results in some great turn-and-burn's and chaotic positionning...

Thats nothin! Look at what she did to me the other night.

And that's just before she decided to bug out so as her entire zone did not respawn, and our druids spent a few hours trying to solo her by kiting her around her room and through the egg pits.

We were charging in and oxy decided to toss me half way across the map into an egg pit:/

onyxia falling thru the earth is lame but for guilds capable of killing her consistently its prob going to be offset by the respawn issue that would let you kill her alot more often than 1 time a week
