Third try. And by “try” I mean third time I queued there. Probably some 20 wipes altogether. Some of the most fun I’ve had in the game in ages. I hope they don’t nerf him anytime soon, but even if they do I’m happy I got to do it pre-nerf.
I noticed a good tactic is that you just straight-up ask the group if there’s someone who has no idea what’s going on. You know, instead of yelling at them. And then proceed to explain. Also choosing before-hand which groups go to portal is a must. It’s surprisingly easy after that.
Do not queue for N’zoth if you don’t have at least one hour to spare. Just don’t do it. You’ll just end up frustrated.
Honestly, I wish more LFRs were like this. There’s just something satisfying about getting a group of complete strangers to work together and beat the boss.
Exactly. Its just that people are afraid to say in chat that they dont know tactics because then they might be single’d out and get flamed or kicked.
After we wiped 2 times, our tank made a ready check and asked people who know the tactics press ready and those who doesnt know to press not ready. Almost half the group including me pressed not ready.
He proceeded to tell us what to do, assigned groups to go left or right or enter the portal etc.
We wiped one more time but killed him on the 2nd try.
The other night I asked people to confirm in the chat that they’ve read what’s been said, because I figured some people will just ignore the chat and click “ready”.
It mostly seems to go to one extreme or another.
Either it’s too easy and people moan about it
Or it’s too hard and people moan about it
I don’t think most want an inbetween because they want to live the experience of acting like they’re super pro… or being the first to say “encounter 2 tough, gg testing blizz, kbye”
I’m glad there’s people that still sign on to make the community a fun experience instead of adding to the meme that WoW players are toxic nerds that can’t be happy anywhere.
I still have to even find a Pug group to down HC Nzoth.
But because most people have killed it by now, I am stuck with idiots who cant go through the filter-boss or LINK CURVE groups.
Its really rough to find competent people in Heroic Pug, so I wasnt surprised that LFR was a show. I want to get the curve mount to finish my BfA bucket list so bad But I am behind in progression because most people I group with cannot learn mechanics or disband after 1 wipe. And LINK CURVE people wont accept me despite me having 30 attempts and more in the last bosses.
Is why I didnt bother with LFR.
Here is a joke in my Pug life: I spend 2 hours finding a group, and takes 10 minutes in a boss fight that either ends up in a kill or disband.
Horde group finder full of all kinds of groups. Normal runs 24/7 zerging raids. M+ runs 24/7. Heroic runs 20/7. (they stop at about 3am most of the time). If I had a cloak on my horde alts I’d go get my hc achievement but I cba playing “” “horde” " with barbies and night elves. (healer with mythic 9 gear) lol
You seem obsessed with that little fella
Is there some issue you’d like to get off your chest, maybe a group session so you don’t feel targeted and afraid of other people singling you out at least twice in same discussion… You know?
Oh you’re not interested? Ok then. We tried. You keep dragging up Tahra at every opportunity if it will help you sleep tonight.
That’s true. Sometimes you get lucky, but it’s around 50-60 minutes, it seems. I solved the problem by setting myself on queue, finding a nice afk spot and reading a book while waiting.
It took me roughly two hours to kill just N’zoth, this included repeatedly explaining all the tactics again and again and again and again. No one yelled at anyone and we only had to kick one player.
The magic fix in the end seemed to be for the tank to Raid Warning USE NECK every 60 secs and that solved most of the insanity problems. The groups for going down seemed to go either everyone went or next to no one went. It was a very interesting night.
