 Posted: 07/22/05 - 14:30 Post subject: Ragnaros dead... finally after 8 weeks of summons...
|
|
|
8 weeks cuz we were close to killing him prior to the v3.0 upgrade of him.
We almost failed because summons are still broken, and people still getting stuck in other instances.
2 failed attempts, and almost giving up with 30 minutes left since we had to clear from entrance to get our off-tank back because of dying under Ragnaros in a non-rezzable spot.
2 Sons Waves with Rag @ 27% after, and he died to about half the raid force left.
4th guild on Cenarius to do it. Good times.

Yah my guild just finally got him last thursday, we got him down after one wave of sons and still had 50 seconds left till the next. We figure that if we get about 3-4 more of the crazy 58dps one handed daggers for our rogues we theortically could kill him before any wave of sons.

he's hard now? Seems like a joke to me  Potions and 2% crit on weapons ftw ^_^ I was #5 dps and lived with 47 hp last time I killed him. I can't believe he dropped 2 hunter legs the other night and both rotted because all the hunters there have them =(

We are having a problem converging right before the first sons, too many people die. We need to stop being sloppy = \. We are too cocky from Rag V2.0 so we aren't enough attention.

Rag only at 27% after 2nd Sons...you need to significantly increase your DPS some how. Have your mages respec to frost or something man.
We managed to kill Rag before 2nd sons this week.

Best we've done is 64% before sons spawn.
What we need is to figure out how to keep healers on rogues without having the healers get f****d over by the knockback ;/

We usually have rag to about 35-37% when the first sons spawn, and he's easily dead before second sons, with a min+ to spare.
Our dps is really not that uber either, rag hasn't dropped any weapons for us yet, but one trick is to take the extra 10min and get the uber FR buff on everyone from UBRS. This helps DPS a ton because rogues/casters can shed some FR gear and put the DPS gear back on.

We had a fun time with rag today (NOT)
Didnt have full raid and low on dps but went anyway.
We have killed him multiple times in the past but today was just a cockfight.
First go. 10%
2nd attempt 1%
3rd and final attempt.... rag showing no health, 1 priest was alive got a dot off and died, the dot actually killed rag, he had 0 health, but because no one was alive in the instance he bugged and stayed up. No one could release/use SS.
We all get booted up. MC had reset except for the bosses. Domo however was back up.
Oh well

Ideally you can kill him just moments before the 2nd set of Sons.
Pre-patch our best attempt was 15% before Sons. Post-patch it's been around 40%. If you have a few tanks with high FR and know how Ragnaros works, you shouldn't be losing too many DPS during Phase 1/3.
Try moving to your spots 20 seconds before Sons spawn and you shouldn't lose too many people.

Does taunting when he's about to shoot the fireball or whatever really work?
Curious about it, since on saturday when we attempted him, it either wasn't working well for our offtanks, or they weren't paying attention to the fight ;/

We got him again finally about 3 weeks ago and he's our monkey b***h of love now. No need for that UBRS crap, but fire pots are just a HUGE help.
Also, not a damn weapon for us either since the change. We got a perditions blade our first go, but that was the night before the patch that changed him. Since then we've struck out mightily.

a. Tav you're a b*****d for getting the weapons.  Lucky b***h.
b. Bleh, I hope we don't start getting priest shit, when I add up all the class armor drops (tier 1 & 2), priests are outnumbering everyone but mages & warriors 2 to 1 in drops, with warriors not that far behind.

We got our first weapon tonight (Perdition's Blade, 4th kill).
They should change it to 2 legs, 1 weapon, 1 random (cloaks, rings, etc).
Domo was a f*g and dropped eye instead of leaf.. bleh, one more week of waiting.

Not sure if you guys use it, or know of it.
There is a little trick you can do to get a free 86 fire buff that is different to all the normal ones, lasts for an hour.
Its not a hack or anything.
Anyone know or use it? It certainly helps having bulk of ppl with this extra FR

We tried it once, but it really didn't help us that much more, so we said s***w it because it was too much of a hassle.

Yeah... What Xammer and Ruyen said.
1. We don't want to become *reliant* on it, just in case Blizz "hotfixes" that as a "bug".
2. Its a pain in the ass that we don't want to do for every attempt.
3. In instance summoning is still broke making it an even larger pain in the ass.
