Can anyone copy the video link? Youtube movies never show on iPads unless you go through the link itself. Mucho thankos!
Loading screens in the middle of fight is going to be an issue for many.
DPS: Why did I pull aggro and die
Tank: Because Im still loading
or healers might not make it into the fight in time.

When something is corrupted, it is altered negativing in some way. When you are talking about a person who is corrupted, their morals have been altered. From the start of this xpac, to Garrosh's death, his morals, goals, methods, etc have been the same and have had no outside influence. Therefore, he has not been corrupted. If anything the only thing that becomes corrupted in this video is Garrosh's body.
My question is:
On the early PTR Garrosh preview I saw some kind of huge one-shotting balls moving around the platform (at least on the first phase), but now there are none.
So, did they decide to make them heroic only or what?
This looks really good, and what I like in lore wise, he starts off with his " normal " Garrosh attitude. His Horde will rule the world. He is Son of Hellscream, he even shouts that. But the longer the fight goes on, the more hatred he builds up, the more damage he takes and the refusal of the Alliance / Horde champions to die.
That's when the Heart takes over and corrupts him fully, you can see it in his speeches. A really well done fight and a fitting end so far!
Looks like a neato fight, gonna be fun to kick some Garrosh ass! =)
Boring and anti-climactic, especially being outshone by most of the ToT bosses and mechanics.
I should note that the boss is likely not currently scaled correctly. For example, there was a major mechanic in phase 1 that was ignored, which shouldn't be able to be ignored (letting an engineer release an Iron Star to kill the adds). The sha in the shadow realms also seemed to die too fast (he didn't gain enough energy to empower one of his abilities until the second shadow realm phase). This is PTR, the entire purpose of it is to test new things so that they can be tuned, not to give a sneak peak at a boss prior to it going live.
Tuning has nothing to do with a boss beeing "bland" or not, we had exactly the same disscussion with madness of deathwing back in cata.
People where always "but it's not tuned!" on the PTR, while that absolutely did not matter for what the fight was about.
Not saying Garrosh looks like madness, god no lol
I think the fight is ok, maybe there are even more mechanics missing and we don't know what it will be like on hc.
However, i think the fight looks pretty boring for melee players, just like Lei - Shen. Awesome tuning, really tough fight, but pretty boring, other than not standing in shit.
I started raiding with T11, so while many didn't like the whole interupt heavyness of those fights, I thought it was actually pretty engaging for melee's, nowadays it's almost all about not standing in shit, which is nothing short of a clusterfuck (25 man) but not really that engaging at all.
I'd like some more fights with more melee responsibility, not like Animus, where a single mistake will most likely wipe you, but something more than just not standing in crap and tunneling the boss, like tortos, god the first kill was soooo ungodly long and boring, please don't repeat that.
Ah, I didn't know about the achievement. But still, it seemed like it was easier to not let the Iron Star release and kill the adds yourself rather than letting the star kill them and dealing with the higher damage. You probably will have to use the star on heroic though (just a guess).
Too many loading screens... afraid of that ><
Also, on the topic of the Heroic version of this fight, I think you will have more sha phases, like how there is the doubt, despair, and fear phase. People will probably get annoyed by all of the loading screens, so maybe not.
Looks like fun!
Im curious to how they'll solve the loading-screen issue.
