Woah.

Very very very cool mate. How long did this take you to think up

Also, make more bosses please! Would love to see/hear more of this made up instance : D

cool story brah



on a more serious note niiiiiiiice.

To get this to where it is now has taken 2 - 3 weeks on and off. The idea of the 1st boss i had in mind when i started but the second boss I made up as I went along and refined it to where it is now. Currently working on the third boss which is what the ninja reserve where the floorplan is is for.

I've only read the first boss so far, and it looks amazing.
Yet, I think the fight is a little bit too complex to be called a "gear check".
Furthermore, Your Hard mode is too different from normal mode, specially fopr a first boss.
Imho, you should save that awesome fight for a deeper boss, maybe the first one on the secound floor, as being a gear check for a secound part of the dungeon.
Just my few cents here, keep up with the great work!

I just read both of the bosses, and both fights seems amazing!
Both seems too require raid awareness and movement.

As to "The 1st boss is too complicated", I have considered changing it so that he becomes the 4th boss but atm i don't have any mechanics for the 4th boss so until i do i cant really judge if switching them would be a good idea. I do hear what your saying though. Perhaps it's my subconsious elitism making the 1st boss be HARD! :

another point to make is that alot of the difficulty is in the tuning which a writup can't adress, It would be possible that on easy mode the tuning was quite forgiving to compensate for the fights complexity considering that it's a 1st boss.

This wall of text crited my eyes for over 9k!
It was worth it though,very nice work

Nicely done, very imaginative and very much in the spirit of Ulduar.
Likewise, I like the good faith inclusion of boss quotes and lore, let no one tell you that you don't have a head for it.

I have to ask though. The humanoid mobs you mentioned in the stargazer's hall present a problem. Where did they come from, who are they working for, etc. Remember that this place is apparently sealed, so are they constructs classified as humanoids like the earthen or are they something else?

I'm assuming at this point that the master of the house is corrupt (much like Loken in Ulduar) hence the aggressive response from the locals and the nasty Starlight Atrocity (which was a damn cool idea by the way). If I remember my lore right, Uldum has some sort of Titan superweapon somewhere on its grounds, perhaps something that would be involved in "reoriginateing" the planet if that became necessary. I'm curious what the relationship is with said weapon.

At any rate, good planning, can't go wrong with Titans IMO.
