    Prot Warrior Solo kills C'thun

    Hi!

    I soloed C'thun today and haven't seen any other warriors do it so i wanted to show that it can be done and explain how it can be done.

    On the pull - Make sure to grab Ouro and bring him to C'thun's room and start the fight, this is for later in the fight.

    Basically the phase 1, you nuke the eye, It isn't overly hard.

    Phase 2 however, you dps C'thun and he will take 99% reduced damage. Eventually he will eat you, but Ouro will pull you out of C'thun's stomach because he can't attack you. However, the stacking debuff will build up because the game thinks you are still inside, that is the hard part.(Note if you don't have Ouro you die after 7 secs)

    You'll need impending victory and Blood craze to survive the damage. When you are about 35% pop enraged regen and last stand and continue to dps, the next time you get to like 60% with those 2 abilities on CD you should run around and use only devastate on the eye tentales - For whatever reason they proc Impending victory ( heals for about 25k with the glyph in my gear) even though the devastate one shots them.

    Eventually the boss will eat you again, Ouro will teleport you out and it repeats ( There can be a very random gap between 1 digest to another, it can be really short ( 5mins or so) or very long ( 20minutes or so)) so with that in mind, be ready to use your cooldowns early, so that they will be up again when you infact need them. Run around and devastate for heals, once the boss goes under 20% just stay on him full time and dps him down, healing with victory rush.

    This fight takes an incrediably long time to complete ( 1hour 58minutes in my case), so be prepared!

    The video is sped up otherwise its a very very very long fight to watch. lol.

    Also, ensure you bring a second main hand and 1-2 extra shields!

    Enjoy!

    Cheers

    (I did not come up with the idea of how to stay out of the stomach, the original strat came from Jider the rogue who soloed it)

    Nice work there, but I've got to ask why you chose to put this one up instead of the Thaddius or any of the less gimmicky wins?

    I put up illidan, thought this would be more impressive/deserving of a post then Thaddius/Patchwerk etc :S.

    I should mention, take a look at my youtube channel for more solos!

    Its too fast gz nonetheless

    kinda too fast video. Have it on normal speed instead. Else you could just show the last 10 sec of the fight if you just want to prove you actually did kill him.

    0/10 for the video
    10/10 for the kill

    Are you aware that you can reset the stacking buff that you get after going in the stomach by just running into the middle of c'thun? This way you can chain pull going inside the stomach, 10 times per 5 minutes.

    Anyway gz on the kill.

    I am sorry but I dont understand what you are trying to say. I think you are defending your decission of making the video go so fast.
    If so, my counterargument is:
    I dont want to see a movie speeded up because I can not consume the dialog and the story so fast. When I see a solokill video I am intresting in the tactic involved, how the person handled diffrent mechanics, when the person used what CD and if there were any critical parts (e.g. near death experience).
    Atm the video only works as a brag of your achievement and is no where informative, enjoyable or entertaining for the viewers.
    As I said, if you just want to brag, just show the last 5 sec or so. Or even just 2 screenshots when the boss is almost dead and when he is dead.

    He's saying that if he just uploaded the last 15 seconds of the kill, people would say that he had other people helping him, and they just hearthed out so he could record the kill by himself.

    would you have tried again at a 1% wipe??? LOL

  15. #15
    Honoestly, yeah =/ lol. I dc'd at 60% on the first go lol.That and i am extremely eager to solo things, I have been working on a few more difficult ones, like C'thun for example. Which is not easy, and i keep smashing my face against the wall.
