Oondasta is a loot pinata

[But I Hate You All]

I recall blizzard saying how hard this boss was going to be. Now I am not hardcore raider at all but this boss was a zerg fest. 120 people vs the boss cause of faction tagging made him a 1 shot. Now I am kinda confused what went wrong here since blizzard did say Oondasta was going to be super hard made for hardmode guilds. Was faction tagging not taken in to account?

not trying to complain or QQ too much just kinda confused how the boss ended up being easier than they said. I am looking for clarification about this.

It may be worth noting though that one of the world bosses, Oondasta, is intended to be crazy-difficult. If you’re not in an organized Heroic-level raid group and teaming up with other Heroic-level raid groups, you’re going to want to stick to the other world boss"

Well, 120+ people trying for anything is an amazing thing in itself for a game this old, so I don't really mind it.

Oondasta seems to be the topic no can be bothered with searching for current threads about:

Oondasta impressions so far?

World 1st Oondasta Kills

Both those threads still on the first page of the forums discusses his ease already. You'll also notice how Blizzard said raid group and not 4 or 5 raid groups.

120 people equals 3 raid groups. you answered it yourself, the boss was unfairly zerged.

[Pebrocks The Warlock]

When 120 people fight a world boss meant for one group, it'll be a lot easier than people expect. Also, I don't see why you couldn't keep this to the one Oondasta thread: http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/...essions-so-far

You had 3 times the required amount of people, of course it was easy. It will be hard if you do it with just 40.

organized Heroic-level raid group and teaming up with other Heroic-level raid groups, not 3 groups of pugs not in Heroic-level gear

last I checked 40 mans raid havn't been in wow since 2008ish. Soooo even 1 40 man is either 4 10 man or 1 25+parts of 2 10 mans. Hence TEAMED UP.

I take that to mean 4 teams of heroic 10 man groups joining together, or 2 heroic level 25 man groups working together, etc, not multiple 40 man groups.

I really think the boss was over hyped by blizzard in terms of difficulty

[jonoy8]

oondasta could have given some type of -stats debuff or something when you died to prevent res zerging

it's kind of a joke that he is killed the first day he spawns.

The 10 or 25-player versions are raids; World bosses, like Sha or Galleon, can be done with up to 40 people.
