    EU doesn't get mythic for another 10 hours.

    Don't worry EU will be taking the ranks soon enough.

    I was watching your stream this afternoon and was semi-trolling in twitch chat along with everyone else. But, like I said before, anyone who actually thinks you were being serious (or wants others to think you were for ulterior reasons) has concocted a fantasy in their hands and are desperate to maintain that image.

    Hey, there always has to be a target for hate and trolling.

    At least it keeps it interesting.

    Remember that one week is far less then a few months to do every kind of test, theorycrafting, etc., you won't have addons working fine as soon as the servers are up and all that.

    Take into account that heroic would become a race by itself (so you would get guilds trying to kill it faster and others trying to test all they could instead), they would try to not stream and give strats out, etc. Right now they don't care about anything like that because every guild could do it with so much time to test. Even server problems would just screw them really hard with less time to do tests/theorycrafting.

    Think how crazy things would be with this scenario.

    Months? Outside the LFR weekends or a couple of days of normals being available this tier, every boss is up for like 2 hours on each difficulty (with half the time going to server downtime, instance downtime and super lag). You do get a general idea to prepare your strategy to tackle mechanics if you do PTR, but you're exaggerating how helpful it actually is, because there isn't that much time to try everything, so especially on harder bosses you basically start from scratch.

    Exorsus' addon should make kromog a bit of a joke on mythic tbh.

    Not really. The raid has been out for a bit over 6 hours now. In SoO, in the first 5 hours, 8 bosses were downed on Heroic (today's Mythic).

    I remember that. People were in full panic mode that day, rofl.

    If anything it seems kinda slow, and I've even say that fights like Gruul look really unforgiving though mechanicly easy.

    its the hardest part of the fight tbh. otherwise it's just damage and running from 1 pillar to the next

    besides, inferno slash and cave in aren't difficult abilities either but guilds still manage to wipe on them Kappa

    You do know that they didn't test the tier at the beta's end, right? The amount of testing time for each difficult was a lot higher than one week with normal/heroic only (plus all addons working, strats layed out, etc.). Blizzard tested bosses for way longer than one week or just a few hours before WoD going live. You only had problems testing if you logged in and expected to find a pug. The top guilds don't enter giveaways or pray to get a beta key dude... they don't stay in queue waiting to log on beta like the rest on "testing days", etc... Blizzard want them testing stuff.

    It's not exaggerating, it helps a freaking lot. Even the top guilds say that. Now imagine all that effort in just one single week, including the gearing theorycraft, etc. it's insane to do all that in just one week.

    Just remember the damn raid race from blizzcon, both guilds just blazed through the 4 main bosses in Heroic HM in less than a hour, they knew where to go, trash to skip, how to do the rest, etc. and every single mechanic/timers from the bosses (including Imperator). And WoD was still in beta, if beta/ptr wasn't helpful, they would not be able to do that race that way. And executing normal/heroic mechanics very well, is basically the foundation to have a better time in mythic. For any group in fact, not only top guilds.

    Hmm perhaps. I just worry the tank damage is going to be a struggle for some guilds with current gear. I may be way off the mark though. Insane healers do insane things (looking at you Jhazrun.)

    Depending on how much people have to move around and the ammount of damage going out on the fight, Kromog would still be no joke, considering he has like 260mil on Mythic. We'll see.

    And MW 5/10 with Flamebender lol. They're going hard though.

    It's the oneshot mechanic syndrome. Amazing guilds have no problems avoiding every oneshot mechanic and so they clear it very fast, whereas weaker guilds have a lot of trouble with having all 20 people avoiding the attacks that kill in one hit.
