You know the actual mount drops from Kael'thas? :D

Good luck with boxing that! Probably still one of the most complicated fights out there, for a boxer.

That's just a setback however.

Sad that he has been solod but having more peeps there makes it harder..

[tanknspanker]

I can now confirm that he's 5 boxable. I started farming him a few weeks ago with 2 guildies and they weren't on tonight. I concluded that I needed to bring a shammy for staff buff. It took me 4 attempts before I finally got him.

Group make up was DK tank, 3 rets and ele shammy.

First part is very easy. I found it a little easier to pull the mage way away from group so that explosions don't knock you everywhere during phase 3. After you kill weapons, get the staff and equip and buff your team with it using shammy, then get close to mage, but just outside of aoe range. As soon as mage is up, pop wings and destroy him as he's the biggest threat. you'll still get a few knockbacks so make sure to reapply staff buff from shammy. This phase is tank and spank.

Phase 4 is the real bitch and it's totally random as he'll be MCing 2 of yours guys periodically. What I found is try and keep your tank topped off as much as possible so in the event he gets MC'd, you'll live through it. Try to interrupt pyroblast whenever you can.

If you get him to 50%, then welcome to phase 5 and then it's almost entirely tank and spank.

I started farming za/2:4eye on tuesdays and its pretty quick. I have to say travel is the largest pita of the whole thing.

[tanknspanker]

I had almost downed this guy with pal + 4 shams in BC. I was hoping to go back with Cata gear... Glad to see you guys are making progress I'll give it a shot soon to see what it's like at 85 with the pal + shams.

No mount yet. :( Only 3 kills on him so far, but now that I can do it weekly, I'll keep trying if I don't cancel my subscriptions.

The kill order IMO should be the mage followed by the hunter. When I fight the mage solo the first time, i pull him to the front of the room, as fighting in the back, the explosion sends my guys into the places where they get stuck. After killing the weapons, you'll want to drop the mage ASAP. I don't know your group makeup, but the mage will drop fast to ranged attacks, which is why I pop wings and go to town. 2nd should be the hunter as his aoe bombs start to hurt bad.

If you have someone in the party equip and use the staff, you should not eat any fears from the rogue. The warrior, rogue and hunter are all tank and spank. I hate to say this, but if you're having trouble on this phase, you're gonna really hate the next phase. If you happen to live long enough to see the phoenix spawn, you'll have to make sure to kill them asap along with the eggs as they will do massive damage as well if left unattended.

He was solo'd in the beta where death strike gave a lot more healing and Mark of Blood was on the talent tree. I'm not aware of anyone soloing him now including Raegwyn without having Mark of Blood.

That french person solo'd him, I have it bookmarked at home. I do believe it was recent, so not beta. She/He also solo'd Illidan and has a blog in french.

edit: OK Im wrong her/his blog is here http://blog.mionelol.net/ , but Mimiron 25 is pretty impressive!

edtiX2: wow killed saurfang, thats wild!

I tried again last night around 6 or 7 times and couldn't repeat it. Closest I got was 55% and 52% and then wiped.

What I learned last night, after each mind control, you need to reset your paladins auras and seals as he likes to give them crusader aura and mixes up the seals. The resistance aura seems to be the most important one as he dishes a lot of fire damage. The real bitch of this fight is my shaman, when he gets MCd, you lose the staff buff and will start to get stunned and disoriented. I haven't tried to see if I can pvp trinket it. If he can, that may be the trick. It's a total RNG fight, as all it takes is for the shaman (staff wielder) to get MC'd, then your other guys to get stunned while he puts down this aoe spell that'll one shot everybody within range. I'll reattempt with a pvp trinket. I may even try to fraps it if it doesn't kill my framerate too bad.

I watched the video of that Mimiron kill and if you look closely, he's got stacks of Mark of Blood on him, so that was before the patch.

I cannot even get through the mind control :(

I messed about a bit last night and got to the mc phase a few times. It didn't occur to me that they could knock off the buff, I'll have to macro a rebuff with the staff and make sure a few shammies loot it if that's allowed. Once that buff falls off it all goes to hell. I was trying with tank and four dps too, maybe I should let one heal.

[Zappy]

If you're running with 4 shammys, you can try to loot the dagger on 3 and the shield on one. The nasty part is that you need to melee with the daggers in order to remove the MC. I tried it once with my DK and 4 shammys, but with all the stuff going on during the fight, the shammys drop a lot faster than the rets, and facing the target was a huge issue, so I wiped in record times.

When I first attempted it, I was using 2 more friends - another DK and a druid - the druid looted the dagger, and he would remove the MC debuff, however it was the stuns and disorrient effects that knocked the crap out of us which is why I say the staff is #1 in priority. When he switched to the staff, it was cake with 7 people, as if he ever gets MC'd, then I would have at least 3 rets active to help heal and dps, and if he wasn't CC'd, he could free heal and keep the staff buff up.

With that said, If you've never done this fight before, I would suggest bringing an extra friend or two, one that equip the shield and try it out so you can learn the fight and understand the mechanics. Phase 3, while it isn't that bad once you understand it is a complete pain due to your guys getting knocked half way across the room and being out of IWT range.

This fight for a 5 boxer is truely RNG at it's finest. I've had it to where my tank was MC'd within the first few seconds of pulling him and wiped before even getting to 95%, then other times where it seems you can DPS for a solid 20+ seconds before anybody gets MC'd.

Agreed and then into 3rd you screw up his script with too much damage and he bugs and isn't targetable.

[Zappy]

I put up a video that shows the fight. One big thing here is to pop army of the dead right at the start of phase 4 and the fight becomes a lot easier.
