I'll probably be coming on my main when some are on alts to get more practice on bosses and at the same time rerolling for some tier pieces. Did some more simming today and found out that my tier gloves are actually better than offpiece and I passed on them when they were going to be practically given to me, so stuck with 2 piece for now doh.
Maidens is actually a really well done fight; can't wait to see in mythic.
Also; lol at that UI. I love how it cuts to him doing old content
Last phase of maidens is absolutely insane.

BRF as a whole is a giant clusterfuck compared to Highmaul. Pretty fun fights overall but as always the luster will fade when this is all we raid for the next 6+ months. ^__^
Are any of you guys still doing mythic highmaul? my guild is debating stopping as even the 680 gear is generally optimized better in BRF. We may run 'optional' weekend mythic highmaul runs soon as we focus on heroic BRF + mythic BRF (when released).

Nope, We'll come back and kill M Imperator at some point but our focus for now is HC BRF into M BRF staright away. I'd assume most guilds are following the same path, unless they were super close to a kill on whichever boss they were progressing on.
|
We've thought about just doing kargath->butcher->tectus, quickly as they still drop some really good items that contend with mythic BRF gear. We have a thread on our forums where people are listing gear they need from highmaul that is BIS (excluding mythic BRF gear) to gauge how much people need and which bosses to see if it makes sense.

I know it might be a little early but for me BRF beats all of MoP and Cata in terms of visuals and mechanics. I'm surprised especially that I like the graphics in there since it's mostly red, brown and orcs (kinda like the horde garrison ). I really love Blast Furnace and Operator Something fights, had a blast while doing them yesterday so now it's 5/10 for me and we'll be finishing on monday, hopefully 9/10 and Blackhand + hc next week.

Dat 20 fps trash pack with ridiculous particle effects though. But yeah I'm liking the raid too!

Yeah can't believe that EU servers went to shit again. Felt like i was back in November again. So many guilds it fucked over too, NA/OC/CN just took a huge gearing lead pre Mythic launch. I know for a fact the top guilds are running 5+ heroic groups 9/10 to then practice blackhand 5+ times in a row on different groups to nail on tactics, but they just had 1 day ripped out.
Interesting that Style Wars and the other Chinese guild just straight up went 10/10 lol.

The Chinese have no time for bullshit.

Gotta give the other servers a fighting chance after all!

The Beastmastery set bonuses are so cool. I wish it was a viable specc ^^

Servers were completely shit last night. I had 700-900 ping on Train and Kromog, that was.. fun. Oh well, we still won! Iron Assembly and Backhand are probably going to be annoying on heroic.

I would like to see an ability list for Warlord Backhand!

The dungeon journal is pretty accurate, strategy takes some doing in P3. We downed Blackhand on Normal before going to heroic, but we had a bunch of people drop so we only had time to kill Gruul.

rejoined my old guild and pugged 2 normal bosses, 15 mins later I joined their heroic hm farm group and got 4 pieces of gear after 3 bosses
life is weird sometimes

Going to do a small explanation of this ability since it is poorly explained in the dungeon journal.
Shattering Smash – The Shattering Smash inflicts 243750 to 256250 Physical damage split among all enemies within 6 yards, knocking the targets back clearing all threat and stunning them for 3 sec.
Not true ^^^^^^^^^^
When Blackhand uses shattering smash there is an obvious red circle that you can see approximately a little bit in front of where he stands. The direction that you are thrown depends on where you stand in the circle and not on the orientation you are in comparison to Blackhand.
Y = You O = Circle B = Blackhand
B B B B Y YO OY O O Y
Yay, for crude representations.
I am assuming in all of the 4 cases above that you are standing in the circle itself just at the different edges. According, to the dungeon journal you would be thrown in the direction that Blackhand faces in all 4 cases. What actually happens is in case 1 you are sent Up, case 2 Left, case 3 Right and case 4 Backwards.
Hope this helps!

Just pugged 10/10 normal... really not looking forward to Iron maidens / blackhand on heroic
|
The way I explained it was to think of the red circle as having arrows coming from the middle straight out, you will always be launched on that arrow. This is especially important in P2 when you launch people to the rafters to deal with the adds that are shooting you the whole time, since they must be aimed correctly.
Also in P3 when at least 4 people must be in it at all times, you have to make sure he doesn't launch you off the edge by positioning yourself correctly.
For the record, we 1 shot pretty much everything up to maidens (think blast furnace was 2) on normal, then 5-6 pulls on maidens, 12-13 on Blackhand. Heroic, on the other hand, is much more difficult simply because of the numbers required.

Anyone here have a guild or group I can run with? I'm only ilvl 650 and I completely blow at this game. Just started at WoD, so new to WoW. I am a Windwalker Monk and can't find people to run Highmaul/BRF with. Constantly joining groups and they never start or fail consistently. I play on Deathwing-US so not sure if that matters or not. So if anyone can help me out or there is a teamliquid guild I can join that would be super awesome possum.
