And Affliction isn't even terribly OP.

Just regular OP? No nerfs needed then. lul

[ryjkur]

Even if he was, he didn't last anywhere near as long. It's a fully stacked raid of nearly maxed characters and the boss still didn't die. Blizzard is probably watching this and going "let's see how far we can push them", with a huge set of nerfs waiting for the kill, just like with KJ.

??? "didn't last anywhere near as long." Literally 7 days like Uu'nat atm. And Paragon killed it 20 days before the second guild, because other guilds didn't class stack. So yeah class stacking was extreme there. Paragon was just lucky Blizzard didn't hotfix feral druid abuse soon enouogh and won because of that.

[Einsz]

They killed it 20 days before any other guilds because other guilds realised it was overtuned and went for other bosses. Actually Paragon were very inefficient and progressed on Nefarian for 7 days while Method just went for Sinestra and Al Akir first and killed Nefarian after two days with hotfixes.

Paragon got world first on Nefarian, Sinestra and Al'akir. They progressed very inefficient indeed. /facepalm

T11, best tier in the history of wow.

[NtflxnChill]

They got second on Al'akir

No they didn't.

[Voidwielder]

Looks like Method hit the mental wall.

[willemh]

No they didn't.

Dream got world first in the literal sense of the word. Everyone knows 10 man was a different beast back then however.

[Nitros14]

They got second on Al'akir

No one cares about 10-man. That's a glorified dungeon not a real raid size

10 HC on Garrosh was far more impressive than 25 HC.

[Gorsameth]

No they didn't.

its literally in the screenshot on the previous page.
World second Cho'gal
World second Al'akir

Tier 11 was basically 3 raids released at once.

[Raelyn]

12 warlocks now for Method? Wow...does that beat the number of SPriests used on the first boss? Class stacking ftw I guess!

[Gorsameth]

10 HC on Garrosh was far more impressive than 25 HC.

ugh, that video from the priest solo healing.
just godly.

[Nitros14]

10 HC on Garrosh was far more impressive than 25 HC.

The size was removed because it was impossible to balance. Garrosh way harder on 10. Al'akir/Ragnaros/Lei Shen way harder on 25.

Omegalul 10man, no one gave 2 shits about 10man, hell i'm sure at this point Asia still had seperate 10 and 25man lockouts.

tbh 夢想's Al'akir kill was 10man. Paragon still got 1st 25man.

No one that actually played back then will deny that paragon got world first in T11. 10 man raiding really wasn't mature enough at that time to be considered equal.

Still one of the better movies, especially the 1min mark.

Day 8, 12 warlocks

Two questions: 1) Did they abandon the Ankh tactic if they're only going with 1 shaman? 2) What makes warlocks so strong for the fight? Selfheals and survivability?

They still have 1 shaman for the anhk. While he can only do it once, they use brezes on scrype for other sacs.
The warlocks are strong for p3 where random targets get a no heal debuff. They can just shield themselves with a drain life beam. Alongside that they can demonic circle over lasers so no dmg from those.

[xpose]

No idea how they even hit 2% as they haven't been able to even consistently get to <10% since. Couple more nerfs and it might be killable.
