Video of my last Timed Heroic Strat run to get a Bronze Drake

Well only 2 more for you to go then! I'll cross my fingers for ya!

Great vid Hachoo! I'm still in the Outlands so it's nice seeing an instance in Northrend that is ran by someone who knows what they're doing.

Great quality too I might add.

I tried this today with my pally,3 mage healer group. I finished the 3rd boss with 2min left. I didnt have enough time. I guess if I want to really rush through I need to pop my elemental everytime its up. I got 3 epic rings out of there so I may be done with that instance for awhile. It was nice watching your video.

For me, starting out, the trick was really not to loot anything except the first boss. Now that I've practiced a bunch I'm sure I could still complete it with looting everything, but stopping to loot each mob plus bosses probably takes at least 2 minutes, maybe more.

When I did it I didnt die at all and went through each boss. I did loot the bosses so that cut into my time. I have decided trying for those mounts is just not worth it. I can buy 5 red dragons and to me I dont care if I am flying on a brown turd. To me a mount is to get from point a to b. If I run strat again I will loot everything. All the drops I wanted out of there are looted to my toons who needed them. I may never go back there.

True but for me the instance was easy, took 30 minutes total x 5 (so 2.5 hours) to get all 5 drakes, and buying 5 red drakes costs 7600g which takes way way way longer than 2.5 hours to make

Well I made a true attempt at this today with my new DK Tank and crew and I was so close......ARGH

Anyways I had him to about half life before my timer ran out. I also had some pretty crappy runs back and forth as well. It also doesn't help I lost a shammy on the guantlet near the end so I only took 2 DPS shammies my resto and DK tank into the final battle. (I recincarnated my shammy but didn't heal him in time and he got 1 shotted.....grrr)

A little better gear and some better pulls and I have this down!!! Again I must stress how much easier this instance was with DK tank and a little change to my DPS macro's. I am pulling like 2200 with the 3 of them without even trying now and that is with all the random shit you need to heal through and stuff.

Well I made another attempt last night and I got some lucky spawns and some retarded parts of the encounters that wasted some huge amount of time, but with 1 min left on my timer I got my first Bronze Drake. I had all my shammies up this time in the end and engaged him with 2 mins left and spanked him hard.

gratz! It gets easier every time!
