Deeprun Pest Control

Archive for the ‘Boss Kills’ Category

Next to fall was the first boss in Tempest Keep (2nd one we killed though ofc!), the Phoenix God – Al’Ar which we 1 shot on the night after coming close several times the previous night including a couple of classic moments where he meteored the OT who was standing near a wall and respawned on the upper level leading to a wipe! Doh!

Loot was:

• Phoenix-Wing Cloak – Batou
• Band of Al’ar – Brandii

Well turned out to be an interesting night, 1 shotted a new boss on the first nite of a fresh instance reset. Now our raiders can stop shivering every time we hear the damn “Mrrrrrrrrgggggggrrrrrrrrrrlllllllll” noise as we twatted Morgrim Tidewalker.

Lewt was:

• Pendant of the Lost Ages – Benisaro
• Ring of Sundered Souls – Batou

So after realising the Kara was in fact relating to Fathom Lord Karathress and not the instance with a similar name we went in to Serpentshrine and gibbed him. Took a couple of nites of tries and a silly wipe on trash cost us a kill on thursday but hey he’s dead regardless!

Loot was:

• Leggings of the Vanquished Champion – Fiona
• Leggings of the Vanquished Champion – Aae
• Fathom-Brooch of the Tidewalker – Disenchanted(!)

Quite a fun fight this one, didn’t take too long to get sussed as well which is always nice! Regardless we killed the Lurker Below there last night so its back onto Morgrim then the rest of the bunch in Serpentshrine Caverns.

Loot dropped was:

• Ancestral Ring of Conquest – Beecees
• Glowing Breastplate of Truth – Thoronar

Grats to Lana for being the sole death on the actual kill!

Well in a shocking development we actually killed something that we can use to make a decent screen shot! Making a nice change from Hydross’s bracers or Magtheridons “bit of armour” plates, we downed Void Reaver on the first night of tries.

After getting most of the people attuned Blizz then removed the attunements requirements (prob just as well really as we had a few swap out) meaning we could go into Tempest Keep last night instead of the planned raid later that week. So on the last try of the night with respawns already starting in the room we just went for it and downed him.

Loot was:

• Pauldrons of the Vanquished Hero – Aphadon
• Pauldrons of the Vanquished Defender – Batou
• Fel Reaver’s Piston – Skypheonix

First Boss in SSC down finally and so it begins…or something! Lewt was: A bit poor and both went for min bid but hey at least we got trash epics too! Much to Immeh’s annoyance he seems to be getting the nether vortices at a much faster rate than the Primal Nethers he needs so nae luck there really!

As is the tradition of late Hydross is yet another boss that provides a crap screenshot when killed, so in an attempt to spice it up a bit, here’s a cat!

Back on form and going strong once more!  Magtheridon down!

After recent probs it was definately a case of being back on form there last night, after a singular attempt the previous night (due to connection issues for a few folks) which went well we headed back in there downing him on the first actual try of the night! Amazing the difference a few tweeks here and there makes tbh and it was a fantastic showing by all involved.

Loot was:

• Chestguard of the Fallen Hero – Razyen
• Eredar Wand of Obliteration – Jonpaule
• Liar’s Tongue Gloves – Valavirgilin

(WTB Warrior loot!)

There’s also a movie of the kill available as filmed by Fiona from the perspective of an Enhancement Shaman HERE. (294Mb Xvid)

(“Gruul the Dragonkiller…killed!” doesn’t quite have the same ring to it ok!)

Well after the unexpected hotfix, never one to look a gift horse in the mouth we decided to make the most of the changes and see what happens. We’d had several good previous tries and were getting there so it was no real surprise the altered version went down and went down hard!

Loot was:

• Collar of Cho’gall – Arkos
• Gauntlets of the Dragonslayer – Razyen
• Leggings of the Fallen Hero – Lórien

Apart from the bugged Hurtfull Strike, he’s definately around where he should be in terms of difficulty, so kudos to Blizz for bringing the changes forward like that. Some may say he’s now too easy but tbh this guy was never meant to be the real challenge of the Burning Crusade and its silly to try to defend the old version imo. Your average guild is still gonna take time to learn him but they are not hitting the sheer brick wall that he was prior to the changes.

Nightbane went down in flames in another fine kill by the DPC folks! Loot was the Warrior tanking Chestpiece and the healer neck which went to Mavranic and Kalistra respectively. All in all a fun fight but much higher difficulty compared to most of Karazhan.

(Another late update, apologies, actual kill date was 23/02/2007, pre-2.0.10 nerfed Version!)

Chalk up another kill…King Maulgar and his Ogre Council dead on the first night of tries! We had a quick look at Gruul the Dragonkiller which looks to be quite a fun fight as well but didn’t stay too long that night but hey we will be back to pay him a few more visits!

Movie now available: Here

Loot was the Tier 4 Shoulders for Benisaro and Malefic Mask of the Shadows for Lanariel (nerf druid loot?), you can see the linkage on the Latest Drops mod which nicely ties in ofc with the implementation of the new BC DKP tables! While we wont be using DKP for Karazhan we will still be using it for the 25mans so we’ve implemented the new table based on the values carried over from the previous Primary table to close the gaps as it’s largely a fresh start for many in the Burning Crusade. DKP/Auction systems are pretty much unchanged from what we were using before, we’ve just simplfied the values etc so the guildies will already be familair with how it works.
