Ragnaros down
Yesterday i participated in a ragnaros kill for the first time. Incidentally it was also my first molten core run.
Ragnaros is the last boss in one of wow’s more difficult dungeons, the molten core. You typically need a group of 40 experienced players knowing their roles and the different strategies for the bosses. This is definitely something you can’t achieve with a pick-up-group.
The whole mc-run was rather spontaneous and we hardly mustered 40 players for ragnaros, but on third try he finally went down. On first and second try the sons phase didn’t work out quite as expected, with one or more sons still zerging around when ragnaros reappeared. Before our third try a bunch of people had to hearth back to orgrimmar to pick up some dreamfoil in the auction house for new firepots, so that’s what i mean by “spontaneous”… On our third try my rogue went down in phase 1 after three knockbacks into the lava, but the surviving players managed to deal some good damage (rag down to ~40%) before the sons appeared. The sons phase worked perfectly and most if not all melee damage dealers where back on their positions when rag reappeared. One of our druids was kind enough to give me a combat rezz in phase 3 and i got back to what i do best, damage dealing. Soon afterwards ragnaros went down. A combat rezz for a rogue, can you believe that?!
