Bear Mounts are a 100% drop for any group that can fullly complete the timed event.

proper way to make something rare.

you guys have fun transferring to Mal'Ganis. We left that shithole after the 2 hour queues for battlegrounds. 15 min queues are very well welcomed. I do miss all the groups though.

2 hour queues for battlegrounds on Stormstrike? Must be horde trying to do AV. I hear its up to 4 hours now.

What? I've done ZA once, and I used 0 mana potions during the entire Zul'jin fight and I was far ahead on healing done then anyone else in the raid. The raid zone is a joke and way too quick to clear, thus why I never went back again.

I think this comes from the fact you outgeared it by a huge margin. I know this may come to a total shock to you.

Za can be completely evil, or a complete cake walk. 1 prot paladin + 1 dedicated healer and some aoe gimps dragonhawk to the point of aoe one half, kill other hatcher, shield out of the 40 some odd stacks of flame debuff, aoe other half, dps boss and avoid bombs.

Our luck with the eagle fight depends on his love of targeting our bird killing huntard who stands wtf out in left field for 90% of the storms knowing half the raid will die running to him

lynx on the other hand, screw him, one of our warriors has a thunderfury, and if he isn't there its complete /groanfest. usually have a war/druid tank him, and i take the saber lash whack as a prot paladin since i can toss out gimped 2500 holy lights after each one and pray one of the healers has a heal inc, being able to eat 3 lashes before death and i still cringe at it. About ready to toss on healing gear and tell the rogues to evasion tank the lash phases and just que heals on them

ZA was hard as fuck back in the day...now I can see it being a joke.

Fammaden · 12-27-2007, 08:40 AM

Bringing a SP really alleviates a huge portion of the healing strain IMO, for those of you saying you chug too many pots in there.

He has hawt purples, but according to his guild leader, he is a moron IRL:

"Most of the best mmorpg players out there are usually between 17 and 25, they live for gaming and don't care as much about education and work as the average non-gamer. Most are «IRL bums» if you know what I mean, Kungen laughs, though he adds that of course smart and educated people can rock at the game, though he finds that less common."

Eagle is difficult for many guilds because a lot of people run on shitty comps and have spell effects all the way down, which means they can't see the forming clouds to signal lightning storm, nor can they see the giant purple beam that indicates the position to run to.

Eagle and Hex Lord are pretty badly designed though, imo. Not difficult to execute at all, just a 100% check on your gear level and how many consumables you're willing to pop.

Another matter entirely that I think needs looking at is 'the shadow priest' problem. I love that shadow priests bring vital raid functionality to groups, but they're a ridiculous wild card now, especially in 10 mans. Either an encounter is tuned around them and it's hard/impossible without, or it's tuned without them in mind and having one makes it trivial.

This wouldn't be an issue if they had just, y'know, gotten rid of mana back in the original WoW beta like myself and thousands of others suggested...but nooooo...

Fuck mana.

Back in the day? Ya, all of 1.5 months ago, back in the day indeed.

I recall ZA, lapping at the distant shores of mem'ry.

That's the one with the bosses that drop the loot?
