While first wing of Ny'alotha seemed hardest in terms of trash rather than bosses, the second wing kicks poor LFRaiders right into crotch! Despite the two weeks of gearing up in 8.3., the second wing seems way overtuned - most notably, with Hivemind and Vexiona. I can't possibly imagine how a group of 410 access … Continue reading Ny’alotha: A Peep into Halls of Devotion

Transmog Farming Guide
The goal of this guide is to cover the solo raids which provide class sets for achievements and set collections. Maps and explanations provide shortcuts to minimize legwork and use of hearthstones. You should bind your hearthstone to Great Seal/Snug Harbor Inn (Boralus) to get the best access to the Stormwind/Orgrimmar portal rooms. Use Dalaran … Continue reading Transmog Farming Guide
Beggars in My LFR
I know that most of my readers are full-time raiders, which rarely use LFR, and yet this is a major problem to me that I'd like to talk about. Leading my 12-toon roster via LFR means facing the trouble of beggars. After any loot item you get, you'll receive a shower of whispers asking - … Continue reading Beggars in My LFR
Trivia: A Streak of Achievements
It was quite a week of my vacation devoted to WoW mostly. And I've advanced significantly on my way in different directions. Let's talk one by one. Holidays No mount this year - again. 13 tries daily, and no result. People advise to just quit trying any holiday mount! Not my thing, it provides some … Continue reading Trivia: A Streak of Achievements
Tanking Argus
My yesterday's small raiding was covering up the un-killed yet bosses with Melaris, the Demon Hunter. And while she went in Havoc, as planned, something snapped when she entered Seat and got straight to Argus. We had both tanks. Which failed 4 times just in the most epic ways. They were collecting stacks like hell … Continue reading Tanking Argus
Antorus: A Peep into Seat of the Pantheon
So, the fourth wing is tested and farmed by several toons, and here's my quick review. I think it would be the easiest expansion-end last boss streak. Both of them fall with a little effort, and as soon as people learn to follow the certain mechanics. For Aggramar, there's nothing too deadly except his 4 … Continue reading Antorus: A Peep into Seat of the Pantheon
Healing the Third Wing
The third wing of Antorus, being the most brutal nowadays due to its deadly mechanics and people still figuring out what to do with them, was a big trouble for my DPS runs. But not so much for a healer. Schlitzchen the Shaman entered Antorus yesterday, expecting to have some real trouble. And she didn't. … Continue reading Healing the Third Wing
Antorus: A Peep into Hope’s End
The third wing of Antorus is finally somewhat interesting considering encounters. It's the wing that I actually LIKE - the first one among all. The Kin'garoth fight is excellent for DPS as they have really much to do. You start using your movement abilities to reach the adds quickly. You need to avoid lots of … Continue reading Antorus: A Peep into Hope’s End
Tomb of Sargeras: A Peep into Deceiver’s Fall
I will start right at the point: Kil'Jaeden must be nerfed. Plain and simple. - WHAT? - Yeah, you heard me right, Kil'Jaeden. You must be nerfed. Micromantica was an obvious pioneer in the fourth wing yesterday. We had the most experienced tanks there. One of them naturally came as a raid leader. He patiently explained … Continue reading Tomb of Sargeras: A Peep into Deceiver’s Fall
That Save Though!..
It's a busy week. The next wing is opened, so my toons have more to accomplish per cooldown. Besides, this week's bonus is world quests, so I have my hands full - I never miss it. The first and the second wings in LFR have become much easier. People learnt the boss strategies, and geared … Continue reading That Save Though!..
