Cataclysm Raid Server Firsts!
by Azzael » Sun Dec 12, 2010 1:54 am
It has been awhile since we were last able to make a post about killing new bosses but finally with Cataclysm upon us so to have been a plethora of bosses willing to shed their nice purple loots 
We started with Halfus Wyrmbreaker found in the Bastion of Twilight as seen above, which was quite easy due to us testing part of the dungeon on the beta. The fight is essentially about controlling the boss while killing the dragons that are chained around the room as well as Halfus's fun Spell "83710" not found. when in dungeon blues and levelling greens! Anyway, there is a video of our kill which can better explain it courtesy of Kìa
Halfus Wyrmbreaker
Out next boss was the Omnitron Defense System in Blackwing Decent, shown below, which turned into a control fight with not too much damage to worry about, indeed once we had mastered the tactic it went down pretty fast.
Out next boss was Valiona and Theralion, which had to be the easiest encounter yet, though we did know what to do from the beta test. As there are two dragons, there are two phases to this fight, but the only real damage comes down on the raid as AoE, as is displayed in the following video
Valiona and Theralion
Next on our list was the Conclave of Wind that had to be the most interesting new boss yet. The fight involves splitting your raid in three to combat the three sub-bosses and killing them all within a minute of each other, while at the same time getting debuffs on the raid such that your players needed to use jets of air to travel between the sub-bosses to avoid taking too much damage. All in all a fun fight, though not too much of a challenge, perhaps the heroic will be
Magmaw was our next boss, which we did perhaps make slightly harder than necessary by trying to tank the lava parasites for a few attempts! In the end though he went down, we also might have killed the boss earlier if Grizzi hadn't decided to keep walking off the edge and into the lava below!
The final boss kill for this post was Maloriak in Blackwing Decent, in which the kill was pretty close to wiping on, which would have been annoying as before the attempt we said we wouldn't use new flasks and potions and that last 2% was pretty close to the enrage
Loot for the above bosses can be seen once updated, to the left on the main page, although it is all normal mode and so will probably soon be replaced
A good start to the expansion though with some new interesting bosses and there should be some more posts soon for the forthcoming bosses before this reset is out!
