What's wrong with my UI? ;p

Did you try zerging this as Assassination? Its air damage is far better than Combat's.

Grats man. I've thought about doing this to farm for the mount.

Yep, It didn't work. I did alot worse with overall dmg due to shadowblades being a 3 min CD and not reseting as fast as it does as combat. Right now combat is WAY better air phase

Hey there, tried your strat today and I'm having a major issue with those hatchlings.
It is almost as if imprint wasn't working at all for me. I do get the buff from both, but I don't seem to get the actual damage buff on them..

I'd be grateful if you or anyone else had any idea as to what I'm doing wrong.

*edit* problem solved.. apparently you need to be on the ground before they cast imprint otherwise they won't take increased damage from you..

[Theholypally]

It's not a world first. My friend did it a few weeks ago on his rogue.

Reason why you havnt seen it posted or on YouTube is prob because they didn't think it was really that important. Some people don't look for reasons to claim a world first.

So yeah, pretty cool but you aren't the first rogue. (Neither is the person on my server who did it, I'm betting)

[Desh]

mione did it way after classes like spriests and boomkins.

Speaking of Spriests...



Guildie solo'd HM Alysrazor.

[DeadlyCZ]

Well, I tried it today as an assasination rogue, 486 item level. Alys died on the first try. Just zerged him in the air, popped vendetta + shadow blades on ~8 stacks, and vendetta+pot again at sub-35% with 25 stacks. No flask, no food, no prepot.

Yes, the tornado phase began, but i zerged him ~10 secs into this phase, but I almost died (ended with 10% HP) because of hatchlings, fieroblasts, worms and tornados.

Afterall, pretty easy fight for decent geared assasination rogue.

I'm having the same exact problem, except the 2nd hatchling that I'm blade flurrying to doesn't seem to be taking full damage. So after I kill the first one with Blade Flurry on, Using KS, AR and SB the 2nd hatchling is left with 75%+ health all the time. In this video they both die at like the same time :S.

This is because the recent BF "fixes". Damage boosts on your main target no longer apply to your off target. They claimed it would go both ways (if your offtarget takes more damage, BF will do more damage), but this is not the case. You can easily see this on Garalon. Cleave off a leg and the leg takes increased damage while Garalon does not. Cleave off Garalon and both Garalon and the leg take normal damage.

They hotfixed our cheese pretty quickly, but they don't seem to care that it's doing less damage than it should, given their description of how the new BF should work.

That explains it. Because of that though, I'm not able to get a buff in the air fast enough so my 5 stacks fall off and I just fall behind in DPS so it doesn't work out :/. I thought the BF doing less damage on Garalon was only specific to that fight, thanks for the heads up though.

For myself, I fly down after 5 stacks and engage the birds as they are hatching. I'll pop BF/KS, and proceed to just kill one outright. Shortly after this, Alysrazor starts cleaving down the middle. However, the 2nd hatchling is still between 30 and 50% after this BF "fix". I drag this bird to a worm or two just to keep it's enrage from happening. My flight will fall off, and I just grab a feather left over from the pull to fly back up and reengage.

This normally puts me behind on DPS, but you'll make up for it with another flight phase (ignoring hatchlings this time). To survive her full cleave, I maintain 100% Feint uptime. I will also spec Preparation, and glyph Cloak of Shadows for the physical resistance. Right before she starts to melee, I've resigned to the fact that no DPS will really be happening, and start worrying about survival.

Feint 100% uptime, Evasion, Cloak, Preparation, Evasion, Cloak (refreshing Recuperate if you need to). This sequence should get you through her melee phase without dying. Go back up in the air and she should die before her second tornado phase!

[Koji2k11]

well i do everything like op does but i cant kill her in burn phase so i have to kite her around when she gets up i survive it with like 10-15% hp and just kill her in the second fly phase

I'll definitely try the Cloak Glyph next time. I've used evasion before though and it doesn't seem to work.

Personally I just kill her during tornado phase (as combat, as assassination I kill her before tornadophase).
I do however use 300 stat food and a flask since I'm lazy and cba trying multiple times if I fail, then I also pop a potion as I reach 25 stacks to ensure it.
But either way, I think if someone is struggeling to kill this solo as combat, they should try assassination (given that they have similarly good weapons, personally my weapons are a bit weaker for assassination, but it's still easier simply because of passive dmg being the most important here).
Neither of the specs hit really hard, but assassination's passive damage is far superior (since you can easily continue spamming envenom with 5 CPs later on when energycapping from high stacks) and Dispatch hits kinda hard, especially when you're close to 100% crit at 25 stacks you'll bring her down faster than you can imagine.

I also don't use Vendetta and SB on pull since I'm going for a kill before tornadophase, it's best to use as soon as you hit 25 stacks together with a potion. (you'll only get one use of each anyway and you're dmg will peak at this point).
You can however use a second vendetta if you use it on the pull, I don't find it worth it though since boss usually dies a few seconds after the second vendetta is popped and you can't use the whole duration.

As combat I just use stuff on CD, KS only in deep insight though (since you have so much energy you'll go through the insight's really quickly so you don't really have to delay it much and especially with deep insight and 25 stacks it'll do crazy dmg). But yeah, the fight lasts longer for me as combat, even if I've got overall better weapons for it than assassination, so I'd definitely say give assassination a go to anyone who struggles with killing her in time.

[Hunchun]

Man I don't know how people burnt her down before the tornadoes came with Assassination but soon as they do I'm fucked cause the adds that I ignored at the start plow me when I land. I tried the combat method where I've killed the adds then taken flight again but I haven't been able to survive the melee phase after she gets up and tries for full power. Don't know if I'm doing something wrong. 480 ilvl Rogue who's tried both specs and no luck yet.

[Thirstblood]

oh my goodness, NICE

[ro9ue]

is this 10 or 25

[Druzil]

How do you deal with the trash before Aly tho? I'm having serious trouble with that. Thanks

[Sonnillon]

Grats on the kill mate.
