Heroic Gundrak

Gundrak down ... many more to go. Thanks to Haachoo's excellent videos.

Had to use stat food, elixers, and scrolls to get the last boss down, but it was worth it.

Grats :-) Onwards to the achievements locked in Gundrak and many more instances. Go give Drak'Tharon Keep a try of Culling of Stratholme.
Also, I love your interface, care sharing an addonlist or addonpackage perhaps?

I know the first time I finished that last boss was a big event for me.
for whatever reason I had a pretty hard time with that boss, he's easy mode for me now though.

ps: I like your interface too, I may give it a try as well.

Grats on Gundrak.

I am getting to the point where it is not quite "farm" status, but I can reliably clear it in about 2 hours. That's way slow compared to others here, but as time goes on, I am confident I can get it done faster.

As far as the last boss goes, the more you do it the easier it will become. To me, it's always a matter of controlling the fight with positioning, etc. One of these days, I will stop being a spaz with the elemental shaman, but until then I just hit a lot of keys. :P

[sojolly]

Ya .. i have now done it twice. Took 5 hours the first time and right at 2 hours the second time.

Attempted Drak'Tharon and Utgarde Pinnacle today. Got a couple bosses down, but they are still works in progress.

Yes love the interface you got running. /sigh and I thought for sure that my heroic times would be good, now that you say its a 2 hour thing I am kind of worried since I am going to start this week on heroics. I will have to go see how it all looks and try just to clear all the trash first.

[Taliesin]

Just a tip, if you're worried about spending too much time in Gundrak. You can go in the north entrance, just kill Slad'ran (the snake boss), leave the instance and go in the south entrance. This saves you a lot of work of clearing out all those packs of trolls along the ledge. I think the snakes and that one troll patrol is easier/faster than the packs of trolls.

Currently, I still clean them out just for the rep. After that, I'll likely trying to shave time off in there as well.

For speed I kill the three sets of snakes before the snake boss, the snake boss, the three sets of snakes between the snake boss and Collusus, the 2 wandering trolls in that area, then all the elementals around the Collusus.

After you drop the Collusus, leave his room and jump into the water. Swim over to Moorabi's area, kill one roamer, pull the trolls and kill Moorabi. Then move to Eck's area and then on to the final boss.

Is there a faster way? (My way, thanks to tips from this forum, skips the trolls on the walk down from the Collusus to Moorabi.

[Dorffo]

I do believe that is the fastest route Greythan. I can wrap the zone in 18-25 minutes following that path, and it does skip most of the trolls/undead hulky things.

3 snakes x3
boss
3 snakes x2
2 trolls
Elementals and such before Collusus
Collusus Boss
Swim over to moorabi's area
3 trolls
Moorabi
AE the trash before Eck (3 groups of 3)
swim back to middle portion from Moorabi's area
then you've jsut got the rhino guards

(erm... looks like exactly what you just typed up)

Anyways - just to confirm.. that's the quick way to do it that I've found and its a nice run for 5 emblems while you need them. In current gear I find myself skipping bloodlust on one of the middle bosses (moorabi or Eck) because I am still sated from previous boss.
