There will be no mount pet battles. There will be jousting.

Gotta be more pacific (intentional), man.

The one where you joust the eggs? Where you hit the boulders? Where you fight the other birds? Or the one where you have to fight the birds and dodge the boulders? I gotta know for the expansion leak thread I am planning.

The entire expansion is just a bigger Argent Tournament grounds

The fact that blizz hasn't made a battle pet iOS/Android app that interfaces with your wow account is just perpetual proof they are functionally Activision puppets without true ability to determine their own products. Sure they can choose whether it's felfire or shadowfire or redfire or whatever, but they don't get to choose what orifice it comes out of.

It always make me chuckle when I remember that Pet Battling in WoW is more popular than PVP in terms of user interaction/activity.

Killed mythic KJ last night and goddamn does it feel good to be done with that shit ass fight. We wish we could have gotten him pre-nerf as we were already working on last phase for a bit, but the nerfs are very apparent and make the fight a lot easier. We snagged US ~90th for the kill, which I guess is cool.

Night 2 KJ, 48%....this fight is aids.

Blizz knew the fight was shit when they had to move the tier that he dropped to other bosses early on after releasing the raid. I felt more relief than joy that we down him as I feel it's the most unforgiving fight and I wouldn't care if I was there for the reclear kills.

This was our total wipe count for the entire tier:

Goroth - 4
Harjatan - 14
Demonic Inquisition - 11
Sisters of the Moon - 62
Desolate Host - 37
Mistress Sassz'ine - 265 (lol)
Maiden of Vigilance - 84
Fallen Avatar - 236
Kil'jaeden - 278

I feel Mistress was really just one of those fights that could've been done under 200 or even less pulls, but sometimes people would be bad or we would have shitty raid placement when fighting her at the end phase. This fight almost broke the guild and just made people frustrated as all hell and some people just take a break from raiding. We lost a chunk of our roster and a bunch of US ranks.

I'd say most of these KJ wipes are just missed soaks throughout the phases and people just derping and forgetting to soak the big ones or people dying to the orbs from the erupting reflections.

Really just one of the worst tiers that blizzard has ever released, from a mythic standpoint and I hope that the next tier is going to better.

we had more pulls on Mistress than avatar and maiden combined (yes we sucked that bad)

KJ feels like such a shitty fight, its all about soaking. if they reduced the amount of armageddons and upped the damage and abilities of some of the other adds it may actually be a fun fight. make the tank add do his wailing twice as often to encourage some movement, add another section where you get dps adds, instead they just have you soak 10 million armageddons after the first intermission.

It's crazy that there are still less than 100 US guilds with the kill at this point in the tier.

i think we have 120ish pulls on KJ at this point, we are already expecting it to take us 300+ even after the nerfs.

We had some recruits come from guilds that just broke at Mistress. It's really a sad tier if less than 100 US guilds cleared it currently and a majority of mythic guilds ended up stopping at Mistress.

KJ feels like such a shitty fight, its all about soaking. if they reduced the amount of armageddons and upped the damage and abilities of some of the other adds it may actually be a fun fight. make the tank add do his wailing twice as often to encourage some movement, add another section where you get dps adds, instead they just have you soak 10 million armageddons after the first intermission.

Armageddons should have been DoTs just placed on random raid members because it would allow the healers to be doing something as well and coordinate CDs for them. But it just turned into something simple as soak this shit or you wipe! It makes pulls just unrecoverable if one person fucks up and doesn't soak and I don't get how their internal raid testing team thought that was a good idea.

The intermission is just the most painful part of the fight as it was soak, soak, soak! People even got toxic at others for falling off because they may have been in a bad position after soaking , since you only get a few seconds to run to the other side of the platform. Which caused us to just to run double bear tanks as having 2 roars is just insanely OP for this fight.
