I have to agree that the trash respawns are really annoying. If you do a perfect clear, it means that you have about 3-4 attempts before you have to redo trash.<BR/><BR/>Attumen is like...wtf. His trash is harder than him. I'd put him on a C due to how tank'n'spank he is.<BR/><BR/>Moroes is interesting, its kinda silly that stacking priests/tanks into the raid makes this fight easy mode. We did it with 1Holy priest, 1 mana battery and 1 holy paladin and got him on the 2nd try. This guy is really a push over. Its on ok fight, I wouldn't rate it as an A+. Really it all comes down to whether your priests can spam a shackle macro.<BR/><BR/>Maiden...what about this chick. Definetly an interesting fight, in my opinion very cool. The imagery on this boss is very nice, reminds one of Uldaman (which I thought was amazing and is really misunderstood) and has A LOT of factors going into it. I do agree that the holy wrath is a little silly, but my biggest grudge is on Holy Fire. So, the tank is getting hit for 2500, crushed because she attacks every 1.8 seconds, holy wrath'd and consecrated, the raid is getting repentanced for 3k and this thing can 1shot somebody? Im alright with a heavy hit component, but the DoT is ridiculous, it shouldn't 1shot somebody in 4 seconds if not dispelled. Not to mention that an unlucky Holy Fire+Repentance=gg to a raid member.<BR/><BR/>Overall, I'm liking Karazhan very much at this point, except for 2 factors. 1. I hate you mr. respawn and 2. Too much pressure on healers, they still dont get to see the fights but 10 little green bars. I just think that the burst damage output in KZ is a little over the top, no wonder healers are quitting left and right.<BR/><BR/>PS. Spectral Valets? WTF? Ok, the super-enrage at 50% + disarm is a cool mechanic, but a stun? Every once in a while they stun our tank and then proceed to 1shot him, thats just stupid.Augustianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02630100457030741311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292755.post-75688400199990914512007-06-24T06:13:00.000-07:002007-06-24T06:13:00.000-07:00and Karazhan isn't liner instance , so Blizzard ca...and Karazhan isn't liner instance , so Blizzard can claim they have some mobs to certian classesforzaq8https://www.blogger.com/profile/12407160212956009814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292755.post-60581090329526910062007-06-23T20:49:00.000-07:002007-06-23T20:49:00.000-07:00"i think they want the tank to stance dance ."That..."i think they want the tank to stance dance ."<BR/><BR/>That doesn't work very well for Bears.

Having everyone but the tank get feared is one way, but not the best I'd say. I'd have him pick a random person, turn to them, then do a cone-based fear, then switch back to the tank without doing anything else while turned (so he doesn't turn and have a chance to cleave or something). Now positioning is more important, as are people's quick reflexes (if he turns to someone near you, can you quickly dart out of the cone before the fear goes off?).<BR/><BR/>Fear ward and tremor totem would then be nice, but not must-haves (and usually reserved for healers). As would a DPS warriors berserker rage. This would make a DPS warrior highly valued on that fight (as they aren't currently), since they can dps full time, through fears.<BR/><BR/>Overall, Kara is mostly good. A bit too annoying here and there, but overall doable by most of the WoW population.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
