I defeated Zekvir after 8 tries

I can´t remember DBM ever controlling the ingame camera… if that´s actually the case, all the more reason to continue not to use it for me… I stopped using it the first time it told me to “stack” and “spread”, because at that point it´s already starting to solve the puzzle for me.

I disagree, the encounter is class agnostic and things like melee dmg and interrupts /spittle are specifically tuned around the capabilities your spec has access to. There is as far as I can tell (assuming phase 2 doesn´t suddenly differ wildly after the first minute or so) no technical reason whatsoever that it can´t be done on any class bar none. Some such as ret might have it easier as a result of class design, but that doesn´t in any way mean others can’t do it, nor that ret actually has any sort of actual advantage that isn´t mitigated in some other fashion (for ex melee hits smashing in @ close to 4 mil life)

… Being obtuse are we. Without DBM his claw smash is a OHK and while dealing with eggs its hard to see it coming when you can’t see it… When DBM calls it out you move… also the move is bs as the boss can turn 180 with it lol.

Sure it is can you post vids of you doing with every every class and spec? How do you DPS race the eggs as prot… as my 616 can’t lol.

and phase 2 is more bs on top of his normal stuff… Have you beat him?

On GD there might be one post with little traction that’s about it

You really over use that saying and it detracts from any view you are making.

Would like to have seen a vid of that “lol” did i say that right.

prot is the answer.

But yes players have beat the boss without WA or DBM.

And Now I remember why I have you on ignore, thank you for the reminder.

Its a OHK with DBM too if you´re not paying attention, and? Do you turn your monitor on while playing? because that wide brown frontal is pretty hard to overlook, and you shouldn´t be far enough away to need more than 2 steps to get out of it. If you´re playing a melee and bum rushed the egg when it spawned, then got clobbered by teh frontal, thats what we refer to as a “learning expereince”… The lesson for anyone overqualified to be a rock being “Wait for the frontal, THEN bum rush the egg”

You call me obtuse, and then turn around and demand that I make WoW my entire life´s purpose by leveling up every class and spec in the game just to prove a point? Yeah, no , bite me, it´s not my job to solve your problems, that´s on you.

As I previously stated, I have not beaten him yet, but in roughly half of the the handful of tries I have done I made it to ph 2 in approximately half of them… evenly split between Mage (mildly challenging) demo lock (feels like easymode) and Retadin (BoF, Kick, repeat, kinda boring…). I have zero doubts that I will complete this encounter before wednesday. Without WAs or DBM

People have done it with less on most of these specs, this is just the easiest to link all in one place.

So just half way but talk like its easy ok then lol. Maybe beat him and come back? Phase 2 is even more 1 shot kills lol. I cleared this back in Nov or start of Dec…

So a guy who no lifes WoW lol sure that will do it for the general pop lol That is why only 4% have done it… You need to be really good…

And watch his hp drop lol try that yourself it doesn’t drop that fast so scaling abuse has to be the play here…

You do understand, or maybe youve already forgotten, that after about 30 seconds into PH2 you have seen all of the mechanics the fight offers?

After that, it´s merely a question of practice and repetition… I know, WoW players in general can’t spell those words much less understand them, which is why everyone always plays with crutches and then turns around and acts like their Special Olympics “play by numbers” version of the kill makes them something better, which is exactly what you are doing here. “Oh, I just played on teh easiest class and used all the addons I could find, that makes me better than someone who has barely touched it but seen all the mechanics and just couldn´t be arsed to invest the time yet.” :rofl:

BTW, I never at any point in this thread or any other said it was “easy”, you must be confusing me with the OP. Or possibly even yourself, as you have in fact made such statements in the past while being derogatory towards others for not having completed it yet, even though you´re now sitting here trying to defend it as insurmountably hard for the vast majority of players. Just because it pisses you off that I know I can do it without crutches if I want to, because then the only thing you repeatedly base your claims of skill on is proven to be not as hard as you have pivoted to claiming. “Erhmagherd, muh 4% achievement might become a 5% achievement, stop them all before they expose me!!!” :rofl:

But you can discuss your own self-contradictions and the motivations behind them without my assistance, or anyone else´s for that matter. Back in the box of buffoonery you go, enjoy 2025.

There’s no scaling abuse. The fight just isn’t tuned that tight.

So why is it my hunter can burst ? down to 30% under hero but can’t make a dent in ?? with more gear than him… Watch his mage one lol…

So why havn’t you beat him? You are overgeared and still not easy? hmm odd.

^ There. Evidence.

Idk because you don’t plan your cds for eggs, don’t kite / position very well, don’t take full advantage of brann potions or a litany of other reasons?

Here’s a full guide on the fight as MM hunter from a guy who did it at 584.

Everyone does not want to work at McDonalds, but we need people to work at McDonalds - although they do offer services where you can make your order through self service, there is someone who needs to make the hamburger.
In the same way, we think we dont need parking attendants, but although there was this specifik attendant who thought he could tell me what to do, their field of work is still needed, although I dont like them.

Because you actually have to care enough to try in earnest and not save it for end of season downtime. Just like I would actually have to care about your opinion for your repeated “then why haven´t you killed him yet” trolling (despite having already been provided the answer at least twice) to mean anything. The reason I haven´t killed it yet is the same reason you have an m+ score of 0 : I just don´t care enough to do it earlier than necessary. All it grants is a mount skin, and a FoS,… Wow, big Whoop, I have hundreds of both of those, so one one more or less means nothing.

I´ll kill it when I want to, not to appease a random blob of pixels that will simply move the goalposts to “Then why didn´t you kill it earlier” just so he doesn’t have to shut up and eat humble pie. Just like I dodn´t engage with M+ this season but dedided that I´d like a +1 in my mount collection over the weekend so I ran an 8 and a 6 on my lock, problem solved. I am not beholden to you, or anybody else, so sorry not really sorry. You play your casual “I´m a super-badass because I can cheese an encounter” open-world game, I`ll play my game where everything that isn´t a heroic or mythic raidboss is a waste of my playtime.

But when the dust settles, you´ll still have only killed it because you chose an overpowered class that is practically designed for the encounter and flooded your UI with crutches until you could finally reach the bar by standing on them, while I killed it by learning it, memorizing the rhythm, and executing it. The high horse you´re sitting on is therefore laughably unwarranted, “Oh, I´m a big deal because I cheesed an achievement that only 4% of players have, so that means I can talk down to other players.” :rofl:

Congrats on the kill. I haven’t bothered with the rest of the thread because it looked like some sort of argument.

Welcome to the ranks of every other player who wanted the mount.

zelvkir in improved version can be done with 610-615 ilvl, so end of patch with 630 ilvl+ there is nothing impressive

People who can’t do it, don’t understand the boss’s patterns and are just bad, because sorry, but the boss is not hard.
(I tried it 3 times without looking at the strats, with bran in heal lvl 22 (but 638 ilvl in dk uh))

You’re the one bragging << ironic, how easy it is without doing it lol typical M+ player…

Damn, you’re a professional yapper. That’s crazy how much you can type without actually saying anything. All I gathered from this thread is that you did some content, had fun and your fwiend couldn’t kill queen. That is pretty much everything.

Anyway, I’ll see you in Goldshire! :blush:
