Garrosh heroic mode

[AlmightyGerkin]

Couldn't find anything about this so I decide to start this.

We know garrosh has a heroic phase only (burning of Stormwind by the sha). How do you guys speculate how this will tie into his encounter?

[wych]

Probably a vision via Y'shaarj i'd imagine

[Iyarashii]

He will port us to inside the heart like every other place we see while fighting him. Then he probably gets a berserker buff.

[Archangel Tyrael]

He'll suck you into his Sha Gorehowl, where you'll be teleported to a room that looks like Stormwind's Harbour.

Inside it, you'll have to avoid smaller mana bombs that keep falling on top of your raid. When you leave it, he'll cast ''Corrupt'', which will cause a random player to spawn Sha Energy which increases based on how many people stay inside it and for how long they stay there.

After this, goblins with jetpacks will pick members of your raid and try to drop you on the spires of Orgrimmar.
You must kill them before they do so.

So these guys fly over from Stormwind to Org to drop you on spires?

That joke totally went right over your head

Haha nice referrence.

i see what you did there :P

worst part is blizzard would probably do it on some boss.............

[Slowpoke is a Gamer]

I'm 99% sure it's a mandatory vision. I highly doubt Blizz would indeed nuke SW in lore for a heroic-only phase.

[Kralljin]

Not really, there are just perfectly fine spires in SW, or just flying up and let them drop, maybe even some Val'kyrs will join for the fun.

I think blizzard tweeted saying that it would be only in the heroic version of the fight though.

I think the wrecked harbor can also be seen in the Timeless Isle vision question chain.

Exactly why it'll be a vision. It's a vision of what Garrosh intends to do to Azeroth. If Blizz was going to nuke SW harbor for real (and therefor trigger the massive QQ storm) they'd make it for all difficulties, heroic-only phases tend to be ambiguously canon.

Yeah. Honestly I cannot take any time travel stuff as proving canon-ity of subjects. I'm pretty sure the Bronzes even say there's an infinite number of potential futures at any one time.

[Floopa]

Garrosh heroic mode is available. Just need to know where to look.

Yeah it will for sure be a vision because it's sending us inside the heart just like the other ones like ToES.


A good example of that would be when we see deathwing skewered on top of DragonShire

Care to enlighten us?

[furydeath]

We kill him and then the last phase where random NPC show up to take over as warchief like hogger and we much kill them before they get to the throne.

This sounds oddly like another end boss I fought once... :P

[Falrinn]

Especially since in this case the player is explicitly told to seek out the most destructive timeline. Stormwind getting destroyed is plainly presented as something that would only be possible if Garrosh wins, which he doesn't.

[aHeeRo]

At 50% Garrosh leaps away and ports you into a realm with a Stage. Then a Boss Level Miley Cyrus from the VMAs come out and tries to grind and twerk with your tank while showering your raid with 100k dots. You need to kill her before she reproduces.
