It's one hour per week.

Is it? Someone said otherwise was just going with that. Can we get someone in the know to confirm? One hour a week is just artificial way to make their glacial pace of content stretch if this is true. WTF they doing with those billions?! Fuckers! haha.

MMO-Champion BlueTracker - Algalon only allows 1 hour of attempts

God I'm having a senior moment here.

There used to be this guild that would bitch about shit like this, but I can't recall their website. Does anyone have a URL?

What a trite and pathetic argument, more guilds killed Yogg-Saron in one week than guilds killed pre-nerf KJ. This shit is not hard.

[Dyscord]

Seriously, that is beyond retarded. I really can't believe it.

I mean for the love of god, who actually fought the Avatar of War in the Arena? Thats utterly ridiculous. Pull that bitch back to eastern wastes zone line and fight there. That way you can zone the second half of your raid in after the first half of it dies or lags out.

Fucking ROFL! I would be pissed if I was in the hardcore crowd still. At this point you just have to laugh or cancel your subscription.

Algalon doesn't come from killing Yogg Saron though. It's not even close. As far as I can tell, the hardest fight in normal modes is Mimiron and YS, and they're about equal in difficulty(a lot of the shit about mimiron is the bugs though). But the hard modes are leagues beyond normal modes in terms of difficulty. Have you even tried pushing the red button on mimiron, or 2:30kills on hodir(which were made harder twice)? Only one guild managed to spawn him, on 10man too, and that was due to doing hard modes BEFORE they were made harder. Next week I'm sure a couple of guilds might spawn him, but it'll still be the top guilds in the world.

Really his point is actually a good one, the people who will bitch the most about Algalon are people who won't ever see him.

With that said, I'm not a big fan of the concept, but why not after all, I mean people on these same boards are always glorifying the good ole EQ times where you had to camp mobs and fight other guilds to a single daily/weekly pop or whatever. This in essence is the same shit, only that they're not mutually exclusive with other guilds attempts. I'll bitch about it once I get there, I have enough bitching to do about vesax trash, or mimiron laser barrage, or auriya pull, and I haven't even started the hard modes seriously.

1month ago, everyone's was whinning about how blizzard sucked because everything was too easy. And now the hard modes are too hard? Fucking awesome.

Edit: And yeah DKs are fine again, they rebuffed DS, it heals for a couple thousands of hp everytime again, unholy is getting like 4k heals in pvp gear, all is fine, move along.

Good god, you guys going apeshit are the fucking retards here. First of all, the hardcore guilds that figure out the strat to the fight will have 3 or 4 hours of attempts each week. 1 hour in their 25man and 2 or 3 hours from their combined 10mans.

After that shit, the start will be posted, normal guilds will have 2 hours of attempts per week. It's not like once you learn the fight that the 1 hour of attempts becomes an issue at all.

What makes my ass really laugh, are the people that are bitching about this who will never even see him anyways because their guilds will never be able to get to him at all.

Also, it puts all the first wave of "world-first" guilds on a level playing field once they get to him, as each one will have the same amount of time per week to try to beat the attempt.

I doubt it's tuned at all. If it's way too hard they'll just say "rofl he feeds on your tears" then go count your subscription money.

[Modo Icecrown]

I think it's bullshit. Especially for the boss that is the hardest in the game which likely is the longest learning curve in the game.

I mean, it doesn't even require an explanation. We learned that shit like this was horrible and that the great majority of players who are actually experiencing it hate it. Why implement it now?

Shit maybe we should have exp loss again too.
