    Complete, Detailed Siege of Orgrimmar Guides

    Hello everyone! I have been creating WoW guide content for a number of years under the handle GabeStah as part of my guild <Vox Immortalis> of US-Hyjal and some of you may remember I recently found the courage to start self-promoting with my previously created Throne of Thunder guides. Now that Siege of Orgrimmar is upon us, I've begun the process of creating similar guide content for all the new encounters as well and thought I'd make a similar post to offer it up to the MMO-Champion community as a whole.

    A few of you that are familiar with my guides may notice that in addition to the standard dual-guide setup I tend to create of both the Raid Guide and Quick Raid Guide, I've added a few new formats as well that I'm experimenting with, that I hope will be helpful to some individuals. These include the Role-Specific Guides which are short, extremely focused guides meant to highlight specific duties or tips for that encounter that a player of that particular role might wish to pay special heed to. Finally, per a few user requests, I've also added the straight fight video with our own Mumble chatter as well.

    Your guides are amazing. We used them regularly while progressing in Heroic ToT last tier and they were very helpful in preparing for mechanics and what to expect. (We went 13/13H - thanks!) Glad to see you continuing the guides in 5.4 and appreciate your time and effort in preparing these for the community. We are up to Thok but I am sure at some point your guides will catch up to us / pass us and then we will make use of them

    That's is a lot of guides xD. My guild used your guides for Lei shen and ra-den last tier. Hopefully your HC guides will just as good this tier.

    guides are nice but really for 10 man only

    Great guide! They are really awesome! I was wondering for bosses such as Sha of Pride and Norushen, is there a way to keep track of everybodies corroption/pride?
    The unattainable best is the enemy of all the available betters.

    Yes I suppose that's technically true since that is the raid size we run, but mechanically and strategically 10 and 25 are nearly identical these days, just the number of players involved differs. I would be very surprised if a 25-man raider could not get useful information from a guide from a 10-man perspective and vice versa.

    Thanks! I don't know of a Corruption indicator created yet for Norushen, but I can confirm that DBM has a raid-wide Pride window/indicator for Sha of Pride. I assume it's just a matter of time before all the big bossmods (DBM, BigWigs, etc) get such frames for all that energy-based stuff across the raid.

    Very very cool.
    I liked your Throne of Thunder guides very much and i am very happy that you continue with this content even more detailed!
    Looking forward to the following guides.

    One thing to mention concerning Dark Shaman's Ashen Wall. It appears that they spawn dependent on the tanks position.
    Its coming out of your ears :P So some to your left and some to your right.
    Knowing this you can place this walls even better.

    Great guides! Though it sounds like you're whispering into your mic at times or maybe it's just me. I have a hard time making out words once in a while. I'm probably just losing my hearing. lol

    Perhaps for most fights, but Norushen 25 may be the same mechanically but definately not strategically. The fight looks a TON easier on 10 man as you're dealing with 200% less adds and not having to worry about getting 25 people through the test in 3-4 minutes.

    Thats lots of work you done there, much appriciated.

    Brilliant guides as usual. The fact that you've now gone to the length of making separate tank, healer and dps guides is pretty awesome. Hopefully your guides will get even more recognition.

    Vox always has the best guides in my opinion. Sure they are a little boring because of how in-depth and long they are but if you want to know all the ins and outs of an encounter its the way to go. I've been using them since Firelands and I honestly was shocked at how fast he has produced these this tier. I didnt even start looking for them yet because usually they arent out for a few weeks.

    Thanks man, keep up the great work.

    Thanks! Based on the viewership of other guides I thought there might be a market for these shorter, role-specific guides with (gasp) actual useful info, so we'll see. ><

    Appreciate your comments!

    I really like your guides, especially the long ones!

    Your work is impressive +1 for that. Personally i think the quickguides are better since the full guides are just too long. 20 minutes to explain Norushen just feels way over the top.

    It really depends.
    If you want to want quick info to participate in a raid those short guides are great.
    If you want to form a tactic that fits your raidgroup with in depth knowledge or you have specific problems with a fight those long guides absolutely rock!

    @gabestah: At Thok you can use stuff like "Devotion Aura" to avoid interrupts. I also heard that you can use the entrance-area for kiting.
    Maybe it helps :P
