Glory of the Cataclysm Hero

Sargus — Thu, 01/20/2011 - 19:35

I'm going to be trying to put a 5 man group together to go and get all the achievements needed for this meta 

http://www.wowhead.com/achievement=4845

It rewards a very sexy http://www.wowhead.com/spell=88331/volcanic-stone-drake

We will be running the heroics probably on Sunday and maybe Thursday afternoons, before the rated BG's start up. I plan to run a few each night until we knock them all out. I really do not want to try and do it all in 1 night, or even 2 and maybe even 3. Heroics are boring enough, no one wants to do that many at one time. If you cannot make a night that we have planned to run on do not worry! We will not run unless all five of the players are in attendance, it's easier if we are all on the same page. Plus, I really do not want to do some of the achievements more then once. 

I need 2 DPS (1 melee 1 ranged... or both ranged) a tank, and of course a healer. I have to enforce some type of gear requirement, from what I have heard there are some challenging achievements. Just don't be in all quest greens and all that. 

If your interested leave a comment or PM/mail Nicklolz. Thanks!

Nefarian

saedo — Sun, 12/05/2010 - 13:32

Abilities:

Phase 1 (while Onyxia lives):

Onyxia (starts alone):

  • Electric Discharge - When the orbs glows, inflicts 20K nature damage per second to enemies on her sides, increased by Lightning Charge level, can be line of sighted
  • Shadowflame Breath - Inflicts 35K shadowflame damage in a frontal cone every 0.5 sec for 1.5 sec, also ressurects Animated Bone Warriors in the aoe.
  • Cleave - 110% normal melee damage to enemy and nearest allies
  • Tail Lash - Sweeping tail strike hits all behind for 18K damage and stuns for 2 seconds
  • Children of Deathwing - Nefarian and Onyxia attack 100% faster if they are within 60 yards of each other

Nefarian (appears 30 seconds later):

  • Hail of Bones - Cast 6 times before landing, spawning an Animated Bone Warrior and doing 25K shadow damage to nearby enemies
  • Shadowflame Breath, Cleave, Tail Lash, Children of Deathwing - Same as above

Nefarian's Lightning Machine (activates if Nefarian is dps'd):

  • Electrocute - Genrates massive bolt of lightning that strikes the ground, inflicts 105K nature damage to all enemy targets

Animated Bone Warrior (starts at 100 energy, depletes and inactive at 0)

  • Animate Bones - Shadowflame energy animates these bones, takes 2 energy per second
  • Empowering Strikes - Melee and ranged attacks empower caster, increasing damage dealt by 100%, stacks

 

Phase 2 (3 minutes or Chromatic Prototype's deaths):

Lava

  • Magma - Deals 5K fire damage per second, increases damage taken from magma by 2000, stacks

Nefarian

  • Shadowflame Barrage - 25K shadow damage to an enemy
  • Shadow of Cowardice - Inflicts 30K shadowflame damge to enemy and increases shadow damage taken by 100%

Chromatic Prototype (does not melee)

  • Blast Nova - Does 15K fire damage to all enemies every 2 seconds for 30 seconds, interruptable

 

Phase 3:

Nefarian

  • Cleave, Tail Lash, Shadowflame Breath - Same as before
  • Shadowblaze Spark - Creates shadowy blaze at nearby location, expands in circular form and follows players and speeds up if touched.
  • Shadowblaze - Inflicts 50K shadowflame damage to all in it, resurrects Animated Bone Warriors

Animated Bone Warriors

  • Animate Bones, Empowering Strikes - Same as before

 

Notes:

Phase 1:

  • Onyxia starts alone, phase ends when killed
  • Standard dragon positions, no stand in front or back
  • Electrical Discharge will shoot lightning from her sides, can be line of sighted
  • Nefarian will spawn 6 Animated Bone Warriors for you, kite those (undead CC'able too)
  • Too much hp to burn, and the become inactive over time
  • But revived if hit by shadowflames, so keep them away from those frontal cones
  • 30 seconds in, Nefarian lands, tank him 60+ yards away or both get a 100% haste buff
  • If Nefarian is dps'd during this phase, occasionally Electrocutes everyone, 100K aoe damage to heal through

Phase 2:

  • When Onyxia dies, Nefarian flies up and the room fills with lava
  • Get to a pillar swim up and jump out of it
  • Divide the raid in 3, each pillar will have a Chromatic Prototype on it, doesn't need tanks
  • This phase Nefarian just random blasts the raid
  • Meanwhile, each of your teams kill the Chromatic Prototype on their pillar
  • Does constant blast waves, interruptable
  • Phase ends in 3 minutes or when all Chromatic Prototypes die

Phase 3:

  • Lava goes away, and he lands, similar to phase 1 again
  • Except, there's now shadowblaze, a purple fire that grows and follows players
  • Think Mimiron hard mode fires but way faster, and growing outwards in a circlular fashion
  • They also revive the Animated Bone Warriors when the fire inevitiably hits them
  • Deal with them the same way, kite/CC til inactive again, if you're able to keep away from fire that long

Shadowfang Keep (Heroic)

saedo — Fri, 11/26/2010 - 15:45

Revamped for 85 Heroics!

 

Baron Ashbury

  • Wracking Pain - Inflicts 10K shadow damage and increases shadow damage taken by 20% for 2 mins, stacks
  • Pain and Suffering - Channelled 7 second DoT on random group member that increases in damage exponentially, interruptable
  • Asphyxiate - Suffocates all nearby enemies inflicting shadow damage every 1 second (takes you to 1hp)
  • Stay of Execution - Takes pity on you, but only so he can inflict more pain!   Heals all nearby enemies for 50% of their hp, interruptable
  • Mend Rotten Flesh - Heals for 10% of his own hp
  • Dark Archangel Form - Unleashes full power and does Calamity inflicting 5K shadow damage to all enemies every 1 second.

Notes:

  • Interrupt Pain and Suffering
  • Wracking Pain will stack as the fight goes on, so soft enrage
  • Main ability cycle is this:  Asphyxiate (stuns all of you and takes you to 1 hp) -> Stay of Execution (heals everyone and himself for 50% of their hp, but interruptable)
  • So logic here is, gets you all to 1 hp then heals you back, but the fight will never really end if he gets 50% hp back each time too.
  • It is interruptable, but if you do it too soon, your healer might not be able to keep everyone up
  • So, must find the balance in that you let it heal a bit to help the healer, then interrupt
  • At 20%, he enters his Dark Archangel Form, and it's just continuous AoE so kill fast before healer can no longer keep up

 

Baron Silverlane

  • Cursed Veil - Inflicts 25K shadow damage and reduced healing effects by 75% for 8 seconds
  • Summon Worgen Spirit - summons one to his aid

Notes:

  • Cursed Veil affects all group members and cast every so often
  • Every 25%, a worgen spirit is summoned, kill it

 

Commander Springvale

  • Desecration - Defiles the ground dealing damage and hinders movement of enemies in the area by 50%
  • Malefic Strike - Strikes for 100% weapon damage generating 1 Unholy Power
  • Unholy Power - Increases damage dealt by 10%, stacks to 3
  • Shield of the Perfidious - Unleashes Unholy Power in a frontal cone dealing 15K shadow damage every 0.5 sec for 3 seconds
  • Word of Shame - Consumes Unholy Power to cast a malady on a target dealing 5% of the target's maximum hp per 3 seconds, lasts until caster has perished or the target

Notes:

  • Starts with 2 adds, must be killed as more will be summoned in the fight, can heal boss to full, CC'able
  • Leeches life and adds are able to curse that reduces stats

 


Lord Walden

  • Conjure Frost Mixture - Summons frost mixture that deals frost damage and freezes ground dealing damage to enemies within 15 yards of the target
  • Conjure Poisonous Mixture - Hurls mixture at target and surrounding enemies dealing 12K damage and a 6K DoT, slowing movement speed by 40%
  • Ice Shards - Erupts from all directions dealing frost damage and creating ice patches that deal additional frost damage

Notes:

  • Don't stand on the bad spots
  • Also has Mystery Toxin which forces you to continuously move during the cast or debuff stacks and kills you, OR it can do aoe damage and increase your critical strike chance by 100% (blow CDs and dps away)

 

Lord Godfrey

  • Pistol Barrage - Fires constant barrage of bullets in a frontal cone dealing 27K shadow damage to enemies every second they remain within, lasts 6 seconds
  • Summon Bloodthirsty Ghouls - Summons one every 0.5 sec for 3 seconds
  • Cursed Bullets - Shoots random enemy dealing 50K shadow damage, and leaves a curse DoT that increases damage over time, can be interrupted, 1 second cast

Notes:

  • Cleanse the DoT ASAP
  • AoE kill adds
  • Don't stand in front of the Barrage

Deadmines (Heroic)

saedo — Fri, 11/26/2010 - 14:15

Good old Deadmines got a revamp for heroic with a new endboss and all.

 

Glubtok

Phase 1 (100-50%):

  • Fists of Flame - Sets his fist on fire making strikes do additional fire damage and sometimes knocking back nearby enemies
  • Fists of Frost - Coats his fist with frost making strikes do additional frost damage and sometimes slows nearby enemies

Phase 2 (50-0%:

  • Greater Mass Teleport - Ports all enemies to within range of him to start phase to cast...
  • Deep Freeze - Freezes nearby enemies in a block of ice and starts to cast...
  • Arcane Power - Room fills with arcane power launching fire and frost spells throughout the room
  • Fire Blossom - Deals fire damage to an area and launches enemies up
  • Frost Blossom - Deals frost damage to an area and slows enemy attack and movement speeds

Notes:

  • Phase 1:  Blinks, dropping threat, while alternating between his two fists
  • Phase 2:  He starts floating up in the air and no longer attacking (directly)
  • Does a fire "Cutter beam" across the room so keep moving
  • Elemental adds start spawning exponentially, splash kill those before they build up
  • Otherwise just kill him while avoiding the fire and frost around the room

 

Helix Gearbreaker

Phase 1:

  • Helix is riding a Lumbering Oaf
  • Randomly grabs players to ram into a wall
  • Occasionally throws Sticky Bombs which explode after a few seconds and knockback

Phase 2:

  • Begins after Oaf is killed, and Helix jumps on a player
  • Repeatedly throws Sticky Bombs
  • Goal is for player that got jumped to keep moving to avoid those so others can dps him down
  • Also attaches bombs to random players, they run away

 

Foe Reaper 5000

  • Reaper Strike - Deals physical damage in a frontal cone
  • Overdrive - Deals physical damage to all nearby enemies, 3 second cast
  • Harvest - Moves towards a target dealing physical damage repeatedly to all in its path
  • Safety Restrictions Off-line - Physical damage increased by 100%, cast at 30% hp

Experimental Harvester (vehicle for you to use)

  • Melee damage and generates steam power to use other abilities
  • A stun
  • A knockback

Notes:

  • Pick a dps to pilot the vehicle and use it to deal with all the fire slag mobs
  • Overdrive is like a whirlwind, run
  • Harvest  is a persuit type ability, so, run
  • And finally its own type of enrage to heal harder and dps faster

 

Ripsnarl

  • Thirst for Blood - Increases attack speed by 10% and movement speed by 5% per stack, stacks to 20, gained with each successful attack
  • Swipe - Deals physical damage to the target and up to 3 nearby enemies
  • Go for the Throat - Jumps at a target inflicting 100% weapon damage and knocking enemy down

Notes:

  • He can swipe and watch Thirst for Blood as damage will increase
  • Randomly does Go for the Throat on players
  • Some time in, enters the vapor phase of the fight where Vapor adds spawn
  • Kill those, if left up too long the fog empowers them increasing size and damage
  • Ripsnarl will reappear and you must continually deal with the exponentially spawning Vapors

 

"Captain" Cookie

  • Sits in a pot and throws food on the ground
  • Rotten food is a damaging aura, and if you eat it, slows your movement and attacking speed by 30%, and leaves a DoT
  • The good food gives you a stacking buff that increases movement and attacking speed
  • Don't take too long or rotten food will be everywhere, or someone could take the hit and eat that stuff

 

Vanessa Vancleef

This boss fight will start off as a gauntlet, click the note to start this

  1. You'll be slowly lowered into lava, hit the steam pressure vents to release yourselves
  2. Next, avoid the fires and the ice that will fall down from the ceiling
  3. Kill the spiders
  4. Next room has spinning lines of sparks (cutter beams) to dance through
  5. Kill the worgens
  6. Now you'll face Vanessa

Phase 1 (to 50%)

  • Deadly Blades - Rapidly jumps from target to target dealing damage
  • Deflection - Parry goes up 100%, ranged chance to hit her reduced by 100%, grants 100% chance to deflect spells

Notes:

  • Adds will also repeatedly spawn for you to deal with, comes in caster and melee flavors
  • The phase ends with her blowing up the ship, you must run to the front and get on the ropes to chase her, it's a vehicle based climbing ability

Phase 2

  • Fight just repeats without the adds
  • Kill fast before she blows up the wall
  • Fight ends at 1%
  • Loot is in the water
