As of 3.3 why would you even try to raid Naxx or Ulduar? Simply bang out heroics for 2 weeks and you can gear 5 toons to be ready for ICC25.Quote:

I did it in a weekend.
That's in heroics on a lvl 82 boss with heroism right and cooldowns right? There' s big difference between pulling 10k dps on a 300 second fight on a lvl 83 raid boss and on a 15-sec fight on a lvl 82 heroic boss :-)Quote:

Other than Saurfang the possibilities are rather limited. Not impossible, impossible is nothing. And even a stationary fight as Saurfang requires you do be very carefull with the bloodbeasts. (Because being hit by them gives saurfang his stacks)
But as the topic has hardcore mindset in the title: On a single player I do more dps manually than macroed, and having to move 3 players to move out of stuff makes 3 players not doing dps.
Eventually with enough gear in the raid fights will get easier and easier, thus making boxing them more viable. But at this moment in time (progress in my guild, my situation) it's just not viable.
Now currently I do run Togc with 4 dps or 1 healer and 3 dps. But that's farm raids and even then only to fill empty raidspots.
not quite, it was on a boss dummy, em popped first after em ran out i used heroism. No fire elementals, single target.Quote:

This is from few months ago.
On my shaman in raid setting i can pull over 10k dps(solo of course)
heres a log:
http://www.wowmeteronline.com/combat/11441787#damageout
close to 11k....but not quite there yet.
So most of the fight with either lust or EM on a short duration fight (although admittedly longer than initially assumed) :-)... You can easily pump up numbers by controlling the context - ie. lock/dk/druid debuff + lust + arcane mage spamming arcane blast. Sure, he would be out of mana fairly quickly, but you'd see very high numbers.Quote:

The orbs in Nileys screen by his bars is the left HP and right mana, and if so yours or the targets? Was wondering because it says 53k on left.
that was my paladins hp, its around 55.4k now.Quote:

Considering you got hit 12 times without attacking the adds this begs the question, is the log bugged?Quote:
